Answer:

Both legs would be 20

Step-by-step explanation:
In the image below, it shows the relationship between the legs and the hypotenuse in every 45 45 90 triangle. If we know that the hypotenuse is 20, then the 2 legs are both 20.

I am slightly confused with the problem since they asked for the "short" leg and the "long" leg. Both legs should be the same length because a 45 45 90 triangle is isosceles, with the two legs being the same length.

The diagram shows the curve with equation y = ( 1 + x ) cosx.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

y = 1, 1.319, 1.024, 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

$y=(1+x)\cos x$

$\textsf{when}\:x=0:$

$\begin{aligned} \implies y & =(1+0)\cos 0\\\implies y & = 1\end{aligned}$

$\textsf{when}\:x=\dfrac{\pi}{6}:$

$\begin{aligned} \implies y & =\left(1+\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\cos \left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\\\implies y & = 1.319\: \sf (3\:dp)\end{aligned}$

$\textsf{when}\:x=\dfrac{\pi}{3}:$

$\begin{aligned} \implies y & =\left(1+\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\cos \left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\\\implies y & = 1.024\: \sf (3\:dp)\end{aligned}$

$\textsf{when}\:x=\dfrac{\pi}{2}:$

$\begin{aligned} \implies y & =\left(1+\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\cos \left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\\\implies y & = 0\end{aligned}$

39 ft/min is how many yd/s

Arlecino [84]

0.0181 yd/s. To solve this problem you use dimensional analysis. You convert the feet and minutes to yards and seconds by using this process. The units of feet and minutes cancel out, so you are left with yards per second. You should get 0.0180555555 when you multiply and divide everything, but you can just round it to 0.0181 or whatever place your teacher wants.
