The height in feet of the missile after 5 seconds in the air is; 875 ft

<h3>How to find the height of a Projectile?</h3>

We are given the quadratic function of the height in terms of time, x, in seconds as; h(x) = - 17x² + 260x

where;

h(x) is height after x seconds

x seconds is time of missile in air when thrown.

Thus, after five seconds, we have;

h(5) = - 17(5)² + 260(5)

h(5) = -425 + 1300

h(5) = 875 feet

Complete question is;

A missile is launched from the ground. Its height, h(x), can be represented by a quadratic function in terms of time, x, in seconds.

After 1 second, the missile is 243 feet in the air; after 2 seconds, it is 452 feet in the air.

The height of the can be represented by this function:

h(x) = - 17x² + 260x

Find the height, in feet, of the missile after 5 seconds in the air.

The figure shows a circle inscribed in a triangle. To construct the inscribed circle, angle bisectors were first constructed at

klemol [59]

Answer:

Segments perpendicular to the sides of the triangle through the intersection of the angle bisectors were constructed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above choice represents a bit of excess work. Actually, only one such perpendicular line segment needs to be constructed in order to determine the radius of the inscribed circle.

Once you know the center and radius, you can construct the inscribed circle.

Can someone help me with this please!~

Note that sum of triangle interior angles is 180. So,

$(12x+12)+15+(3x+18)=180$

$15x+45=180$

$15x=135$

$x=9$

Since $A=12x+12=12.9+12=120$

And $C=3x+18=3.9+18=45$

List the sides of each triangle from shortest to greatest

Lelechka [254]

In every triangle, the largest side, is opposite the largest angle.

Also, the smallest side, is opposite the smallest angle.

a. $70^o\ \textgreater \ 60^o\ \textgreater \ 50^o$ so $|RQ|\ \textgreater \ |PR|\ \textgreater \ |PQ|$ ,

because RQ is opposite angle P, the largest,
PR is opposite angle Q , the middle
and PQ is opposite angle R, the smallest.

Greatest side: RQ

b. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of any triangle is 180°,

so

$m(A)+m(B)+m(C)=180^o\\\\50^o+45^o+x=180^o\\\\x=180^o-50^o-45^o=85^o$

thus, m(C) is the largest angle. This means the largest side is the side AB.

Answers:

a) RQ
b)AB
