Find the area of the isosceles triangle.

Mathematics
1 answer:
cricket20 [7]1 year ago
5 0

Check the picture below.

well, we know the triangle is an isosceles, so it has twin sides coming from the "vertex" down to the "base", running an angle bisector from the "vertex" will give us a perpendicular to the "base", let's find its height.

\textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2 - a^2}=b \qquad \begin{cases} c=\stackrel{hypotenuse}{13}\\ a=\stackrel{adjacent}{5}\\ b=\stackrel{opposite}{h}\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \sqrt{13^2 - 5^2}=h\implies 12=h

so we simply need to get the area of a triangle whose base is 10 and height is 12.

A=\cfrac{1}{2}(\underset{b}{10})(\underset{h}{12})\implies \boxed{A=60}

Hunter and Brian are creating a poster for a project and they need to combine two different size boards to create their project.
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

<em>The maximum area of the second board must be (5x^2+3x-6) square inches.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total area of two different size boards cannot exceed (7x^2-6x+2) square inches.

The area of one board is  (2x^2-9x+8) square inches.

Suppose, the area of the second board is  y square inches.

That means......

y+(2x^2-9x+8)\leq 7x^2-6x+2\\ \\ y\leq (7x^2-6x+2)-(2x^2-9x+8)\\ \\y \leq 7x^2-6x+2-2x^2+9x-8\\ \\ y\leq 5x^2+3x-6

So, the maximum area of the second board must be (5x^2+3x-6) square inches.

An AISI 1040 cold-drawn steel tube has an OD 5 50 mm and wall thickness 6 mm. What maximum external pressure can this tube withs
lukranit [14]

Answer:

82.79MPa

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimum yield strength for AISI 1040 cold drawn steel as obtained from literature, Sᵧ = 490 MPa

Given, outer radius, r₀ = 25mm = 0.025m, thickness = 6mm = 0.006m, internal radius, rᵢ = 19mm = 0.019m,

Largest allowable stress = 0.8(-490) = -392 MPa (minus sign because of compressive nature of the stress)

The tangential stress, σₜ = - ((r₀²p₀)/(r₀² - rᵢ²))(1 + (rᵢ²/r²))

But the maximum tangential stress will occur on the internal diameter of the tube, where r = rᵢ

σₜₘₐₓ = -2(r₀²p₀)/(r₀² - rᵢ²)

p₀ = - σₜₘₐₓ(r₀² - rᵢ²)/2(r₀²) = -392(0.025² - 0.019²)/2(0.025²) = 82.79 MPa.

Hope this helps!!

Participation in elections increases as education level increases across all age groups. Education level was a significant factor in the outcome of the 2008 election. Decreasing the drop-out rate among high school students will positively affect voting rates. Increasing access to higher education will decrease citizens' participation in government.
