Solve for X. Geometry

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The smaller sticks will range in length from almost 0 unit up to a maximum of 0.5 unit, with each length equally possible.

Therefore, the average length will be about (0 + 0.5)/2 = 0.25 unit

2)If you assume that each break in the stick is uniformly distributed along the length of the stick and is independent of the location of the other break, then the odds are 25% that you will be able to form a triangle with the 3 pieces.

We'll call the length of the stick 1, so each break can occur at a position in the interval [0,1]. Let x and y represent the two breaks. Then we can look at the area of the region in the square bounded x=0, x=1, y=0, y=1, which represents combinations of x and y, for which we can form a triangle. Since the area of the whole square is 1, the area of the region inside is our probability.

If y>x, then the lengths of the pieces are x, y-x, and 1-y.

The triangle inequality must hold for each combination of edges.

for y>x ...

x+y−x≥1−y

x+1−y≥y−x

y−x+1−y≥x

these simplify to...

for y>x ...

y≥1/2

x+1/2≥y

x≤1/2

If we cut our 1x1 square into two triangles along the line x=y,

then the region in the upper triangle which satisfies the inequalities above forms a smaller triangle which connects the midpoints of the upper triangle.

The lower triangle (x>y), is just a reflection about x=y of the upper triangle, so together, the entire region looks like a bow-tie at a 45 degree angle.

This region takes up 25% of the square, so the probability that you can form a triangle is 25%

Answer:

length = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

length =x-4

width = 8

perimeter =2( x-4) + 2× 8 = 34

= 2x - 8 + 8 =34

= 2x =34

= x = 17

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, then

2(x - 4) + 2(8) = 34 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

2x - 8 + 16 = 34

2x + 8 = 34 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2x = 26 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 13

Part (a)

This is the empty set

------------------

Explanation:

It doesn't matter what set A is composed of. Intersecting any set with the empty set Ø will always result in the empty set.

This is because we're asking the question: "What does some set A and the empty set have in common?". The answer of course being "nothing" because there's nothing in Ø. Not even the value zero is in this set.

We can write Ø as { } which is a set of curly braces with nothing inside it.

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

Part (b)

-----------------

Explanation:

When you union the universal set with any other set, you'll get the universal set.

The rule is [tex]A \cup B = B[/tex] where I've made B the universal set to avoid confusion of the letter U and the union symbol [tex]\cup[/tex] which looks nearly identical.

Why does this rule work? Well if an item is in set [tex]\overline{A}[/tex], then it's automatically in set U (everything is in set U; it's the universe). So we're not adding anything to the universe when applying a union involving this largest set.

It's like saying

we can see that [tex]\overline{A} \cup U[/tex] will basically form the set of every item, aka the universal set.

Segment addition postulate states that given points X, and Z, on a line, a point Y, can be located between X, and Z, ony if we have;

XZ = XY + YZ

The length of the segment BD is 36  cm

The reason the above value is correct is as follows:

Known:

The ratio in which the points A, B, C, and D divide the line segment = 4:3:1

The length of segment AD = 72 cm

Required:

The length of BD

Method:

Calculate the length of BC and CD and add their values to get BD

Solution:

Let the ratios be given unit proportions of the segment AD such that we have;

AB = 4 units

BC = 3 units

CD = 1 unit

By segment addition postulate, we have;

AD = AB + BC + CD

∴ AD = 4 units + 3 units + 1 unit = 8 units = 72 cm

∴ 1 unit = 72 cm/8 = 9 cm

1 unit = 9 cm

BD = BC + CD by segment addition postulate

BC = 3 units = 3 × 1 unit

∴ BC = 3 × 9 cm = 27 cm

BC = 27 cm

CD = 1 unit

∴ CD = 9 cm

∴ BD = 27 cm + 9 cm = 36 cm

The length of segment BD = 36 cm

[tex]P(x \ge 5) = 0.60[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]S = \{5, 2, 7, 2, 3, 4, 10, 6,4,6,3, 6, 6, 4, 8,5,7,7,1,5\}[/tex]

[tex]n(S) = 20[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(x \ge 5)[/tex]

First, we count the number of trials that are at least 5

[tex]x = \{5, 7, 10, 6,6, 6, 6, 8,5,7,7,5\}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]n(x \ge 5) = 12[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(x \ge 5) = \frac{n(x \ge 5)}{n(S)}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]P(x \ge 5) = \frac{12}{20}[/tex]

[tex]P(x \ge 5) = 0.60[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

So first let's write the information we got

Angle BAC = 90 degrees

Midpoint of BC = M

AC = 6cm

Am= 5cm

Also I found MC = BM, since it has a line that represents both lines are same

so to find it we have to Pythagoras theorem (A^2 + B^2 = C^2), well it is question we have the 'A value and C Value', also we need to find the value of B to find the length of MC and BM

A = 5

C = 6

so therefore to find B^2, we have to do the reverse, we don't add but subtract

C^2 - A^2 = B^2

___________________________________________________________

Moving on to Calculation

6^2 - 5^2 = B^2

36 - 25 = B^2

B^2 = 9

B = √9

B = 3

MC and BM Length =  3 cm

____________________________

Now, we know the length we again need to use Pythagoras theorem to solve this.

Since we know

A = 5

B = 3

So..

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

5^2 + 3^2 = C^2

25 - 9 = C^2

C^2 = 16

C = √16

C = 4

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using x and y to represent the 2 numbers with x > y , then

x + y = 15 → (1)

x - y = 11 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term to eliminate y

2x = 26 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 13

Substitute x = 13 into (1)

13 + y = 15 ( subtract 13 from both sides )

y = 2

The 2 numbers are 13 and 2

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \displaystyle \cos A = \frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2 + b^2}\text{ and } \sin A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 - b^2}[/tex]

And we want to find the value of cos(A) and sin(A).

Recall that tangent is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side.

Therefore, the opposite side measures 2ab, and the adjacent side measures a² - b².

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, solve for the hypotenuse:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} c^2 &= a^2 + b^2 \\ \\ c&= \sqrt{(2ab)^2 + (a^2-b^2)} \\ \\ &= \sqrt{(4a^2b^2)+(a^4-2a^2b^2+b^4)} \\ \\ &= \sqrt{a^4 + 2a^2b^2 + b^4 } \\ \\ &= \sqrt{(a^2 +b^2)^2} \\ \\ &= a^2 + b^2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, our hypotenuse is given by a² + b².

Cosine is the ratio between the adjacent side and the hypotenuse. Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos A = \frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

And sine is the ratio between the opposite side and the hypotenuse. Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

In conclusion:

[tex]\displaystyle \displaystyle \cos A = \frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2 + b^2}\text{ and } \sin A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]sec^2A-tan^2A=1\\sec^2A=1+tan^2A=1+\frac{4a^2b^2}{(a^2-b^2)^2} =\frac{(a^2-b^2)^2+4a^2b^2}{(a^2-b^2)^2} =\frac{(a^2+b^2)^2}{(a^2-b^2)^2} \\cos^2A=\frac{(a^2-b^2)^2}{(a^2+b^2)^2} \\cos A=\frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2+b^2} \\sin A=\sqrt{1-cos^2A} =\sqrt{1-(\frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2+b^2} )^2} =\sqrt{\frac{(a^2+b^2)^2-(a^2-b^2)^2}{(a^2+b^2)^2} } =\sqrt{\frac{4a^2b^2}{(a^2+b^2)^2} }=\frac{2ab}{a^2+b^2}[/tex]

Answer:

height = 21.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute t = 1.5 into h(t) and evaluate

h(1.5) = - 16(1.5)² + 35(1.5) + 5

        = - 16(2.25) + 52.5 + 5

       = - 36 + 57.5

      = 21.5 ft

Answer:

21.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = 1.5

[tex]h(1.5)=-16(1.5)^2+35(1.5)+5\\h(1.5)=-36+52.5+5\\h(1.5)=21.5[/tex]
