Which of these is true and why

Mathematics
1 answer:
LuckyWell [14K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

True statements

All equallateral triangles are similar. Their sides are all in the same ratio when comparred.

All squares are similar. Same reason as equilateral triangles. All sides to both squares compared are the same.

False Statements

Isosceles triangles can and usually do have different base angles.

rectangles can have all sorts or side lengths. The only requirement is consecutive sides form right angles.

2 rhombuses can have side lengths that are in the same ratio, but the heights are not in the same ratio. That eleminates.

Answer

These are the only true ones: Statements 2 and 5 are true. The rest are not.

The equation for the circle below is x2 + y2 = 16. What is the length of the<br> circle's radius?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation circle is

{x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}   = {r}^{2}

Where r is the radius

Plug in the equation

{x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  = 16

Take the sqr root of 16 tocfind the radius

\sqrt{16}   = 4

Construct the 90% confidence interval for the proportion of students at the college who have completed their required English 10
igomit [66]

Answer:

The confidence interval has an lower limit of \pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \pi - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} and an upper limit of \pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \pi + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}, in which \pi is the sample proportion and n is the size of the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \pi - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \pi + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

The confidence interval has an lower limit of \pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \pi - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} and an upper limit of \pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \pi + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}, in which \pi is the sample proportion and n is the size of the sample.

A child walks due east on the deck of a ship at 4 miles per hour.
andrey2020 [161]
If you drew the two vectors for the velocity you find a triangle rectangle since the two directions East and North form an angle of 90°. I drew first the vector towards East and second the vector towards North.

Therefore, to get the speed relative to the surface you have to sum the two vectors, which means you can apply the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse, having the two legs.

h = √(4² + 12²) = √160 = 4√10 = 12.65mph

In order to find the direction, you need to use trigonometry: 
- the sine of an angle is given by the ratio between the opposite side divided the hypotenuse;
- the cosine of an angle is given by the ratio between the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse.

You can use either one, I will show you both:
sinα = O / H
inverting the formula: α = arcsin (O / H) = sin⁻¹ <span>(O / H)
these two forms are equivalent.

Similarly:
cos</span>β = A / H
β = arccos (A / H) = cos⁻¹ <span>(A / H).

Substituting your numbers:
</span>α = sin⁻¹ (12 / 12.65) = <span>sin⁻¹ (0.9486) = 1.25rad
</span>β = cos⁻¹ (4 / 12.65) = cos⁻¹<span> (0.3162) = 1.25rad

As you can see, </span>α = β so you can use either formula.

Your answer will then be: the child is moving relative to the surface of the water with a speed of 12.65mph at a direction of 1.25rad from East towards North.

ATTENTION!
If you drew first the vector towards North and then the one towards East, you get an equivalent triangle, which is rotated by 180° respect to the previous one. This way, what you earlier called Opposite is now Adjacent and vice-versa, but the formulas are still valid.
You will get:
α = sin⁻¹ (4 / 12.65) = <span>sin⁻¹ (0.3162) = 0.32rad
</span>β = cos⁻¹ (12 / 12.65) = cos⁻¹<span> (0.9486) = 0.32rad
And your answer will be: </span><span>the child is moving relative to the surface of the water with a speed of 12.65mph at a direction of 0.32rad from North towards East.</span>

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form and identify the slope.<br> −5x + 10y = 20
xenn [34]

Answer:

<h2>Slope = 1/2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

From the question the equation is

- 5x + 10y = 20

To find the slope we must first write the equation in the form above

- 5x + 10y = 20

Move - 5x to the right side of the equation

10y = 5x + 20

Divide both sides by 10

We have

y =  \frac{5}{10} x +  \frac{20}{10}

y =  \frac{1}{2} x + 10

Comparing with the general form of equation above

Slope / m = 1/2

Hope this helps you
