The airplane reaches its maximum height of 10 feet in 95 seconds.

The airplane reaches its maximum height of 95 feet in 10 seconds.

The airplane reaches its minimum height of 95 feet in 10 seconds.

Considering the given quadratic function, the correct statement is given by:

The airplane reaches its maximum height of 95 feet in 10 seconds.

<h3>What is the equation of a parabola given it’s vertex?</h3>

The equation of a quadratic function, of vertex (h,k), is given by:

y = a(x - h)² + k

In which a is the leading coefficient. If a > 0, the vertex is a minimum point, and if a < 0 it is a maximum point.

In this problem, the function is:

h(t) = -(t - 10)² + 95.

Hence the vertex is (10, 95), and since a < 0, the correct statement is given by:

The airplane reaches its maximum height of 95 feet in 10 seconds.

Solve for × and then find the missing angle in<br> the triangle below. SHOW ALL WORK.
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

x = 4°

Step-by-step explanation:

all angles in a triangle sum up to 180°

6x + 38° + 5x + 8° + 90° = 180 °

11x +136° = 180°

11x = 44°

x = 4°

A semicircle with diameter PQ sits on an isosceles triangle PQR to form a region shaped like a two-dimensional ice- cream cone,
Ksivusya [100]

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
