How to find a midpoint

1: Label the coordinates(x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂).

2: Input the values into the formula.

3: Add the values in the parentheses and divide each result by 2.

4: The new values form the new coordinates of the midpoint.

Suppose we have a line segment and want to cut that section into two equal parts. To do so, we need to know the center. We can achieve this by finding the midpoint. You could measure with a ruler or just use a formula involving the coordinates of each endpoint of the segment. The midpoint is simply the average of each coordinate of the section, forming a new coordinate point. We shall illustrate this below.

Midpoint formula

If we have coordinates (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂), then the midpoint of these coordinates is determined by (x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2. This forms a new coordinate you can call (x₃,y₃). It is possible to divide a line segment into any given ratio, not just 1:1.

Find the volume of the solid generated when R (shaded region) is revolved about the given line. x=6−3sec y, x=6, y= π 3, and

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

$V=9\pi\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must start by graphing the given function and finding the differential area we will use to set our integral up. (See attached picture).

The formula we will use for this problem is the following:

$V=\int\limits^b_a {\pi r^{2}} \, dy$

where:

$r=6-(6-3 sec(y))$

$r=3 sec(y)$

a=0

$b=\frac{\pi}{3}$

so the volume becomes:

$V=\int\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0 {\pi (3 sec(y))^{2}} \, dy$

This can be simplified to:

$V=\int\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0 {9\pi sec^{2}(y)} \, dy$

and the integral can be rewritten like this:

$V=9\pi\int\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0 {sec^{2}(y)} \, dy$

which is a standard integral so we solve it to:

$V=9\pi[tan y]\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0$

so we get:

$V=9\pi[tan \frac{\pi}{3} - tan 0]$

which yields:

$V=9\pi\sqrt{3}$ ]

In a triangle, the three interior angles always add to 180°

m∠R + m∠S + m∠<span>T = 180

</span><span>(2x+10) + (2x+25) + (x-5) = 180
</span>2x+10 + 2x+25 + x-5 = 180
5x + 30 = 180
5x = 150
x = 30
