4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola with focus at (h, k) and the directrix y = p is given by the following formula:

(y - k)^2 = 4 * f * (x - h)

In this case, the focus is at the origin (0, 0) and the directrix is the line y = -1.3, so the equation representing the cross section of the reflector is:

y^2 = 4 * f * x

  = 4 * (-1.3) * x

  = -5.2x

The depth of the reflector is the distance from the vertex to the directrix. In this case, the vertex is at the origin, so the depth is simply the distance from the origin to the line y = -1.3. Since the directrix is a horizontal line, this distance is simply the absolute value of the y-coordinate of the line, which is 1.3 inches. Therefore, the depth of the reflector is approximately 1.3 inches.

one interior angle of a polygon is a right angle and each of the other interior angles is 126°. Calculate the number of sides of
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

There are 7 sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's Use the formula that states that the sum of the angles of an n-sided polygon is given by.

S=(n−2)180

Since we are given that the two angles are right, the angles and each of the remaining angles is 144.

And Therefore, the sum is:

S=90

(n−2)144

(n−2)180

=90

+90

+(n−2)144

⇒(n−2)180

−(n−2)144

=180

⇒(n−2)(180

−144

)=180

⇒(n−2)(36

=180

⇒n−2=

36

180

​⇒n−2=5

⇒n=5+2=7

Hence, the polygon has 7 sides.

scoray [572]

Answer: 1) 8/15 2) 2 4/9 3) -13/45

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 + 1/3 = 6/30 + 10/30 = 16/30 = 8/15

2 1/9 + 1/3 = 19/9 + 3/9 = 22/9 = 2 4/9

1/9 - 2/5 = 5/45 - 18/45 = -13/45
