Answer 1

Answer:

a =b = [tex]\frac{5\sqrt{5} }{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} = 5 ^{2}[/tex]

a = b

[tex]2a^{2} = 5 ^{2}[/tex]

[tex]2a^{2} = 25\\[/tex]

[tex]a^{2} = \frac{25}{5}[/tex]

a = [tex]\frac{5}{\sqrt{5} }[/tex]

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. 5 10 ​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8.7}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the length of the third side in a triangle, given the other 2 sides.

Since this is a right triangle (note the small square in the corner of the triangle representing a 90 degree /right angle), we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

[tex]a^2 + b^2 =c^2[/tex]

In this theorem, a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

We know that the unknown side (we can say it is a) and the side measuring 5 are the legs because they form the right angle. The side measuring 10 is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle.

b= 5 c= 10

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]a^2 + (5)^2 = (10)^2[/tex]

Solve the exponents.

(5)²= 5*5 = 25 (10)²= 10*10= 100

[tex]a^2 + 25=100[/tex]

We are solving for a, so we must isolate the variable. 25 is being added to a. The inverse operation of addition is subtraction, so we subtract 25 from both sides.

[tex]a^2 +25-25=100-25[/tex]

[tex]a^2=100-25[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = 75[/tex]

a is being squared. The inverse of a square is the square root, so we take the square root of both sides.

[tex]\sqrt {a^2}= \sqrt{75}[/tex]

[tex]a= \sqrt{75}[/tex]

[tex]a= 8.660254038[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7 in the tenth place.

[tex]a \approx 8.7[/tex]

The length of the third side is approximately 8.7

Perpendicular=P=5Hypontenuse=H=10Base=B=?

3. If triangle ABC has the following measurements, find the measure of angle A.
a = 17
b = 21
C = 25

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a)  42.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

Side 'a' is the shortest of three unequal sides, so angle A will be the smallest angle in the triangle. Its measure can be found from the Law of Cosines.

  a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)

  cos(A) = (b² +c² -a²)/(2bc) = (21² +25² -17²)/(2·21·25) = 777/1050

  A = arccos(777/1050) ≈ 42.3°

The measure of angle A is about 42.3°.

_____

Additional comment

The smallest angle in a triangle can never be greater than 60°. This lets you eliminate choices that exceed that value.

Answers

Answer:

1. a. 2

b. -½

c. y - 3 = -½(x - 8) => point-slope form

y = -½x + 7 => slope-intercept form

2. a. -1

b. 1

c. y - 5 = 1(x - 3) => point-slope form

y = x + 2 => slope-intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (8, 3) and (10, 7):

a. The gradient for the line joining the points:

Gradient = [tex] \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]

Let,

[tex] (8, 3) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]

[tex] (10, 7) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]

Plug in the values

Gradient = [tex] \frac{7 - 3}{10 - 8} [/tex]

Gradient = [tex] \frac{4}{2} [/tex]

Gradient = 2

b. The gradient of the line perpendicular to this line = the negative reciprocal of 2

Negative reciprocal of 2 = -½

c. The equation of perpendicular line if it passes through the first point, (8, 3):

Equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form can be expressed as y - b = m(x - a).

Where,

(a, b) = (8, 3)

Slope (m) = -½

Substitute (a, b) = (8, 3), and m = -½ into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - 3 = -½(x - 8) => point-slope form

We cam also express the equation of the perpendicular line in slope-intercept form by rewriting y - 3 = -½(x - 8) in the form of y = mx + b:

Thus:

y - 3 = -½(x - 8)

y - 3 = -½x + 4

y - 3 + 3 = -½x + 4 + 3

y = -½x + 7

2. (3, 5) and (4, 4):

a. The gradient for the line joining the points:

Gradient = [tex] \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]

Let,

[tex] (3, 5) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]

[tex] (4, 4) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]

Plug in the values

Gradient = [tex] \frac{4 - 5}{4 - 3} [/tex]

Gradient = [tex] \frac{-1}{1} [/tex]

Gradient = -1

b. The gradient of the line perpendicular to this line = the negative reciprocal of -1

Negative reciprocal of -1 = 1

c. The equation of perpendicular line if it passes through the first point, (3, 5):

Equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form can be expressed as y - b = m(x - a).

Where,

(a, b) = (3, 5)

Slope (m) = 1

Substitute (a, b) = (3, 5), and m = 1 into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - 5 = 1(x - 3) => point-slope form

We can also express the equation of the perpendicular line in slope-intercept form by rewriting y - 5 = 1(x - 3) in the form of y = mx + b:

Thus:

y - 5 = 1(x - 3)

y - 5 = x - 3

y - 5 + 5 = x - 3 + 5

y = x + 2

Answers

Answer: Circumference of circle = 27.004 inches

              Area of circle = 58.0586 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of circle = 8.6 inches

Pi ([tex]\pi[/tex]) = 3.14

Circumference of circle (With diameter) = [tex]\pi \\[/tex]d ([tex]\pi[/tex]×diameter)

                                                                = 3.14 × 8.6

                                                                = 27.004 inches

Area of circle (With diameter) = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]d^{2}[/tex]/4

                                                 = 3.14 × 8.6 × 8.6 / 4

The angle made by the ladder with the ground is degrees, and the length of the ladder is inches.

Answers

Answer:

59.04°

58.31 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution triangle is attached below :

Since we have a right angled triangle, we can apply trigonometry to obtain the angle ladder makes with the ground;

Let the angle = θ

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

Tanθ = 50/30

θ = tan^-1(50/30)

θ = 59.036°

θ = 59.04°

The length of ladder can be obtained using Pythagoras :

Length of ladder is the hypotenus :

Hence,

Hypotenus = √(adjacent² + opposite²)

Hypotenus = √(50² + 30²)

Hypotenus = √(2500 + 900)

Hypotenus = 58.309

Length of ladder = 58.31 inches

Answer:

59°

58.3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the full question :

A ladder is placed 30 inches from a wall. It touches the wall at a height of 50 inches from the ground. The angle made by the ladder with the ground is degrees, and the length of the ladder is inches.

Please check the attached image for a diagram explaining this question

The angle the ladder makes with the ground is labelled x in the diagram

To find the value of x given the opposite and adjacent lengths, use tan

tan⁻¹ (opposite / adjacent)

tan⁻¹  (50 / 30)

tan⁻¹ 1.667

= 59°

the length of the ladder can be determined using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c =  hypotenuse

√(50² + 30²)

√(2500 + 900)

√3400

Answer:

[tex]x = 34^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that ∠TSU and ∠PSR are vertical angles. Hence:

[tex]m\angle TSU = m\angle PSR[/tex]

∠PSR is the sum of ∠PSQ and ∠QSR. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle m\angle TSU = m\angle PSQ + m\angle QSR[/tex]

We know that ∠TSU measures 4x and ∠QSR measures 3x. Thus:

[tex](4x) = m\angle PSQ + (3x)[/tex]

Solve for ∠PSQ:

[tex]m\angle PSQ = x[/tex]

Next, ∠PQS and ∠RQS form a linear pair. Thus:

[tex]m\angle PQS + m\angle RQS = 180^\circ[/tex]

∠RQS measures 68°. Thus:

[tex]m\angle PQS +(68^\circ) = 180^\circ[/tex]

Solve for ∠PQS:

[tex]m\angle PQS = 112^\circ[/tex]

The interior angles of a triangle must total 180°. So, for ΔPQS:

[tex]\displaystyle m\angle SPQ + m\angle PQS + m\angle PSQ = 180^\circ[/tex]

Substitute in the known values:

[tex](x) + (112^\circ) + (x) = 180^\circ[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]2x = 68^\circ[/tex]

And divide. Hence:

[tex]x = 34^\circ[/tex]

Write an equation in standard form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope (-8,0); m= -4 PLEASE HELP NEED DONE ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answers

Answer:

4x+y=-32

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

slope (m) = -4

point: (-8,0)

as we know the slope intercept form of the line is, y=mx+b, b=y-mx, now we put x=-8, y=0 to find b [because the point is given (-8,0) so it must satisfy the equation]

so,

b = 0-(-4)×(-8) = -32

y=mx+b

or, y=-4x-32

or, 4x+y=-32

(this is the standard form of the line)

Using the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 0 = -4(x - (-8))

y = -4(x + 8)

y = -4x - 32

y= -(x+3)^2 -5
