The distance between the boat and the ocean's floor is 19m

<h3>How to get the distance from the ship to the ocean's floor?</h3>

We can see this as a right triangle, where the rope with the anchor is the hypotenuse. So we already know that the hypotenuse measures 30m.

We also know an angle, it measures 39°, and we want to get the opposite cathetus to said angle (the height).

Then we use the relation:

Sin(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse).

Replacing the values that we know, we get:

Sin(39°) = d/30m

sin(39°)*30m = d = 18.9m ≈ 19m

The distance between the boat and the ocean's floor is 19m.

Match the circle equations in general form with their corresponding equations in standard form. Not all will be used.

Xelga [282]

The standard form of the equation of a circumference is given by the following expression:

 $(x-h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2} \\ \\ where \ (h, k) \ is \ the \ center \ of \ the \ circumference \ and \ r \ the \ radius$

On the other hand, the general form is given as follows:

 $x^{2}+y^{2}+Dx+Ey+F=0 \\ \\ where: \\ D=-2h, \ E=-2k, \ F=h^{2}+k^{2}-r^{2}$ 

In this way, we can order the mentioned equations as follows:

Equations in Standard Form:

 $\bold{a)} \ (x-6)^{2}+(y-4)^{2}=56 \\ \bold{b)} \ (x-2)^{2} + (y+6)^{2}=60 \\ \bold{c)} \ (x+2)^{2}+(y+3)^{2}=18 \\ \bold{d)} \ (x+1)^{2}+(y-6)^{2}=46$

Equations in General Form:

$\bold{1)} \ x^{2}+y^{2}-4x+12y-20=0 \\ \bold{2)} \ x^{2}+y^{2}+6x-8y-10=0 \\ \bold{3)} \ 3x^{2}+3y^{2}+12x+18y-15=0 \\ \\ If \ we \ divide \ this \ equation \ by \ 3, \ the \ equation \ becomes: \\ x^{2}+y^{2}+4x+6y-5=0 \\ \\ \bold{4)} \ 5x^{2}+5y^{2}-10x+20y-30=0 \\ \\ If \ we \ divide \ this \ equation \ by \ 5, \ the \ equation \ becomes: \\ x^{2}+y^{2}-2x+4y-6=0 \\ \\ \bold{5)} \ 2x^{2}+2y^{2}-24x-16y-8=0 \\ \\ If \ we \ divide \ this \ equation \ by \ 2, \ the \ equation \ becomes: \\ x^{2}+y^{2}-12x-8y-4=0$

$\bold{6)} \ x^{2}+y^{2}+2x-12y$

So let's match each equation:

$\bold{From \ a)} \\ \\ (h,k)=(6,4),\ r=2\sqrt{14} \\ D=-12, \ E=-8 \\ F=-4$

Then, its general form is:

$x^{2}+y^{2}-12x-8y-4=0$

First. a) matches 5) 

$\bold{From \ b)} \\ \\ (h,k)=(2,-6),\ r=2\sqrt{15} \\ D=-4, \ E=12 \\ F=-20$

Then, its general form is:

$x^{2}+y^{2}-4x+12y-20=0$

Second. b) matches 1) 

$\bold{From \ c)} \\ \\ (h,k)=(-2,-3),\ r=3\sqrt{2} \\ D=4, \ E=6 \\ F=-5$

Then, its general form is:

$x^{2}+y^{2}+4x+6y-5=0$

Third. c) matches 3)

$\bold{From \ d)} \\ \\ (h,k)=(-1,6),\ r=\sqrt{46} \\ D=2, \ E=-12, \ F=-9$

Then, its general form is: $x^{2}+y^{2}+2x-12y-9=0$

Fourth. d) matches 6)
