Based on the calculations, the length of side CM is equal to 4 units.

<h3>How to calculate the length of side CM?</h3>

First of all, we would determine the measure of angle B by applying the law of cosine as follows:

B² = A² + C² - 2(A)(C)cosB

<u>Given the following data:</u>

A = BC = 5

B = AC = 4√2

C = AB = 7

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

(4√(2))² = 5² + 7² - 2 × 5 × 7 × cosB

cos(B) = ((4√(2))² - (5² + 7²))/(-2×5×7)

cos(B) = 0.6

B = cos⁻¹(0.6)

B = 53.13°.

Now, we can find side CM by using sine trigonometry:

sin(B) = CM/BC

CM = BC × sin(B)

CM = 5 × sin(53.13°)

CM = 5 × 0.8

CM = 4 units.

rhombus CDEF is shown below. If the slope of FC is 25, what must be the slope of CD in order for CDEF to be a square?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

-\dfrac{1}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rhombus CDEF, sides FC and CD are adjacent sides.

Using coordinate geometry, to proof that a quadrilateral is a square, with regards to the slope, the slope of adjacent segments must be negative reciprocals.

In fact, by definition: Two lines with slopes m_1$ and m_2 are perpendicular if:

m_1=-\dfrac{1}{m_2}

Therefore if :

  • FC and CD are adjacent segments
  • Slope of FC=25

For the rhombus to be a square:

Slope of CD =-\dfrac{1}{25}

FIND the inverse of f(x)= -6 -x^1/3<br><br> f^-1 (x) =
inna [77]

Answer:

f^{-1}(x) = - (x+6)^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the x-swap-y method to find the inverse:

y = -6 -x^{1/3}\\x\leftrightarrow y\\x = -6-y^{1/3}\,\,\,\mbox{and solve for y:}\\-x-6=y^{1/3}\\(-(x+6))^{3}=y\\y = - (x+6)^3

Which graph matches the equation y+3=2(x+3)?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The graph that includes points (-3,-3) and (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the pictures attached, the options are shown.

The equation:

y+3=2(x+3)

has the point-slope form, which is:

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

where (x₁, y₁) is a point on the line and <em>m</em> is its slope. This means that (-3,-3) is on the line. To know the y-intercept of the line, we have to replace x = 0 into the equation, as follows:

y+3=2(0+3)

y+3 = 6

y = 6 - 3

y = 3

Then, point (0, 3) is on the line.
