help please! how do I calculate the coordinates of point a so that at is an altitude?

Answers

Part (a)

Since we want segment AT to be an altitude, this means that point A is somewhere on segment RI such that angle TAI is 90 degrees. In other words, segments AT and RI are perpendicular. Check out the diagram below.

We'll need to find the slope of line RI, so we'll need the slope formula

R = (x1,y1) = (-2,-2)

I = (x2,y2) = (4,1)

m = slope of line RI

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (1-(-2))/(4-(-2))

m = (1+2)/(4+2)

m = 3/6

m = 1/2

m = 0.5

The slope of line RI is 1/2 or 0.5

Now let's use point R(-2,-2) along with that slope we just found to find the equation of line RI.

Turn to point slope form

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-2) = 0.5(x -(-2))

y + 2 = 0.5(x + 2)

y + 2 = 0.5x + 1

y = 0.5x + 1 - 2

y = 0.5x - 1

This is the equation of line RI. We'll use it later.

----------

We found that the slope of line RI was 1/2.

The negative reciprocal involves us flipping the fraction and flipping the sign to get -2/1 or simply -2.

The perpendicular slope is -2. This is the slope of altitude AT.

We want line AT to go through T(-2,4), so we'll use this point along with the perpendicular slope we just found to calculate the equation of line AT.

We'll turn to the point slope form

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = -2(x - (-2))

y - 4 = -2(x + 2)

y - 4 = -2x - 4

y = -2x - 4 + 4

y = -2x

The equation of the line that goes through points A and T is y = -2x.

----------

To summarize so far, we have these two equations

y = 0.5x - 1 .... equation of line RIy = -2x .... equation of line AT

Apply substitution to solve for (x,y) to find the intersection point. This will determine where point A is located.

y = 0.5x - 1

-2x = 0.5x - 1

-2x-0.5x = -1

-2.5x = -1

x = -1/(-2.5)

x = 0.4

Then we can determine y like so

y = -2x

y = -2(0.4)

y = -0.8

Therefore, point A is located at (0.4, -0.8). Both coordinate values are exact. In fraction form, we can say that the point is (2/5, -4/5), but I find decimals easier to work with in this instance.

Answer:  (0.4, -0.8)

===============================================================

Part (b)

To find the length of segment AT, we can find the distance from A to T. As you can probably guess, we'll use the distance formula.

A = (x1,y1) = (0.4, -0.8) ... found back in part (a)

T = (x2,y2) = (-2, 4) ... given

[tex]d = \sqrt{ (x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2 }\\\\d = \sqrt{ (-2-0.4)^2+(4 - (-0.8))^2 }\\\\d = \sqrt{ (-2-0.4)^2+(4 + 0.8)^2 }\\\\d = \sqrt{ (-2.4)^2+(4.8)^2 }\\\\d = \sqrt{ 5.76+23.04 }\\\\d = \sqrt{ 28.8 }\\\\d \approx 5.36656\\\\d \approx 5.37\\\\[/tex]

The distance from point A to point T is approximately 5.37 units. This means that segment AT is roughly 5.37 units long.

Answer: 5.37 units

of a right angle triangle to radian measure and can some anybody help me by looking one old question from my profile help please​

Answers

a right angle is 90°, or 1/4 of a circle.

3/5 * 1/4 = 3/20

radian measure is the length of the circumference of this part of the circle.

a full circumference of a circle would be 2*pi*r, also expressed as 2 rad * r

now let's multiply the full thing with the 3/20 from earlier to just get the desired fraction:

6/20 rad * r

= 3/10 rad * r

of course a solution in cm or inch still depends on the radius here, wich could be just plugged in at will

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3\pi }{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To express degrees in radians

radian measure = degree measure × [tex]\frac{\pi }{180}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] of a right angle

= [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] × 90° = 54° , then

radian = 54 × [tex]\frac{\pi }{180}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{54}{180}[/tex] × π = [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] × π = [tex]\frac{3\pi }{10}[/tex]

16. Mrs. Acosta wants to buy 2 flag pins
for each of the 168 band members for
the Fourth of July Parade. Pins cost
$0.09 each. Which is the best estimate
of the cost of the pins?


Answers

Because we are looking for an estimate, we can round 168 people to 170. Then, 2 pins for about 170 people would be 340 pins (simply multiple 170 x 2). Then we can round 9 cents to 10 cents, or .1 dollars. 340 pins times .1 is just 34 dollars (move the decimal once to the left).

Answer: About 34 dollars

16/5 divided by 2/5 is equal to 16/5 times 5/2

80/10 equals 8, so he will have water for 8 hours

Would the function ƒ(x) = 4 be considered a step function? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

A step function is a function that looks like stairs when you graph it. Normally the end of one line will be graphed as an open circle (less or greater than, not equal to) while the other end would be a closed circle. This allows for a new line of the function to start directly above it without it not being a function (an input cannot have two outputs)

The function f(x)=4 is just a horizontal line as it has a slope of 0 (there is no x on the right side of the equation), so this doesn't resemble a step function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the figure= 3 * (Volume of a cube with side 2)

Volume of the figure= 3*2^3=24 in^3

Answer:

24 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding volume is b*h*w.

b*h*w is base multiplied my height multiplied my width. Lets use this formula to find the volume of one of cubes.

Here is the information we know about the cubes:

the base is 2 inches

the height is 2 inches

the width is 2 inches

Lets put this information into the formula to find the volume of one of the cubes. I will show the work in steps so it is easy to follow.

Step one: plug the given information into the formula.

b*h*w = 2*2*2

Step two: Solve the equation.

2*2*2 = 4*2 = 8

Now we have the volume of one on the cubes. This is 8 cubic inches. However, to find the volume of all three of the cubes we must multiply 8 by 3.

Step three: multiply 8 by 3.

8*3 = 24

And there you have it! Our final answer is 24 cubic inches.

Here is a quick review of what we did to get our answer:

2*2*2 = 8

8*3 = 24

there are 108 flowers. 1/9 of them bloomed. How many did not bloom? How many did?

Answers

Answer:

96 flowers did not bloom and 12 did.

Explanation:

Total flower = 108

Number of flower that bloomed

= ⅑ of the total flowers

= ⅑ of 108

= ⅑ × 108

= 108/9

= 12

So, number of flowers that did not bloom

= Total flowers - Number of flowers that bloomed

= 108 - 12

= 96

So, 96 flowers did not bloom and 12 flowers did.

4.8 * 10^4 the decimal is shifted 4 places the right which is 48000 where you have no numbers, you use zeros.

2.01 * 10^6 means that you shift the decimal 6 places to the right.

2010000

So 2 million is larger than 48 thousand.

The other way to do it is just to look at the power. 6 is more than 4. 6 describes the number of places you move. So does 4. 6>4 so that's the larger number.
