A semicircle with diameter PQ sits on an isosceles triangle PQR to form a region shaped like a two-dimensional ice- cream cone,

as shown in the figure. If a(x) is the area of the semicircle and b(x) is the area of the triangle, find lim a(x)/b(x) as x→0

The limit of a(x)/b(x) as x approaches 0 is gotten as;

lim a(x)/b(x); x→0 = 0

  • The image showing the semi circle and isosceles triangle is missing and so i have attached it.

  • Formula for <em>area</em> of a semi circle is;

a(x) = A = ¹/₂πr²

  • <em>Area</em> of triangle is;

b(x) = A =  ¹/₂ × base × height

  • From the image, ∠PQR = θ

Thus; a(x) = ¹/₂π(10 sin (θ/2))²

a(x) =  ¹/₂π(100 sin² (θ/2))

Similarly;

b(x) =  ¹/₂(20 sin (θ/2)) × (10 cos (θ/2))

b(x) = 100 sin (θ/2) cos (θ/2)

  • Thus;

a(x)/b(x) = ¹/₂π(100 sin² (θ/2)) ÷ 100 sin (θ/2) cos (θ/2)

100 will cancel out and the sin (θ/2) at the denominator will be eradicated

upon further simplification to give;

a(x)/b(x) = ¹/₂π(sin (θ/2)) ÷ cos (θ/2)

In trigonometry, we know that; tan θ = sin θ/cos θ

Thus;

a(x)/b(x) = ¹/₂π(sin (θ/2)) ÷ cos (θ/2) =  ¹/₂π(tan (θ/2))

We want to find the limit as θ approaches <em>zero.</em>

Thus;

lim θ → 0 =  ¹/₂π(tan (0/2))

⇒ ¹/₂π tan 0

⇒ 0

What is a transformation that proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure.
Ratling [72]

Answer: Dilation is a transformation that proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A dilation a transformation that changes the size of the shape by using scale factor in particular ways .

It stretches or shrinks the actual figure. It produces similar figures.

Since the corresponding sides of similar figures are in proportion.

⇒ It proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure.

Hence, A dilation is a transformation that proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure.

Suppose a college student pays $750 for tuition fees. However, she also has to pay $300 for her textbooks (ouch!). What percent
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Total costs = $700 + $300 = $1000.

 $300 / $1000 = 0.3 = 3%
