Answer:

The two points are (1,-4) and (1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that distance between points is 8 units.

Also, Points have the same co-ordinate of x-coordinates.

Let one point be (1,-4)

Distance between two points is given by L= $\sqrt{(X2-X1)^{2} + (Y2-Y1)^{2} }$

Putting into the formula,

L=8 and (X1, Y1)=(1,-4) and (X2,Y2)=(1,Y2)

$L=\sqrt{(X2-X1)^{2} + (Y2-Y1)^{2} }$

$8=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2} + (Y2-(-4))^{2} }$

$64=(Y2-(-4))^{2}$

$8=(Y2+4)$

$Y2=4$

Thus, the two points are (1,-4) and (1,4)

A circle is inscribed in an equilateral triangle. A point in the figure is selected at random. Find the probability that the poi

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is first option 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of a circle is inscribed in an equilateral triangle with side a = a/2√3

To find the area of equilateral triangle

Here side be 'a'

Area of equilateral = √3a²/4

To find the area of circle

Here radius = a/2√3

Area = πr²

= π(a/2√3)

= 3.14a²/12

To find the probability

probability = area of circle/area of triangle

= 3.14a²/12/ √3a²/4

= 3.14/3√3

= 0.6043 ≈ 60.43 % 60 %

The correct answer is first option 60%

The figure shows square KLMN. Which of the following conditions satisfy the criteria for squares?

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

First option: Square $KLMN$ with diagonals $LN$ and $KM$ .

Fifth option: Segment $LM$ is parallel to segment $KN$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a square is quadriteral whose sides are equal.

By definition, a square has the following properties:

1) Its four sides are congruent.

2) The diagonals are congruent.

3) The angles formed by the intersection of the diagonals measure 90 degrees.

4) The opposite sides are parallel.

5) Each internal angle measures 90 degrees.

Notice in the figure that:

The diagonals of the square $KLMN$ are: $LN$ and $KM$ .

$LM$ and $KN$ are opposite sides, therefore, they are parallel.

I dont really know how to do soh cah toah. please help me find x.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

First notice that the triangle with sides $x,y,a$ and the triangle with sides $z,a+b,x$ are similar. This is true because the angle between sides $x,y$ in the smaller triangle is clearly $30^\circ$ , while the angle between sides $y,z$ in the larger triangle is clearly $60^\circ$ . So the triangles are similar with sides $x,y,a$ corresponding to $a+b,z,x$ , respectively.

Now both triangles are $30^\circ-60^\circ-90^\circ$ , which means there's a convenient ratio between its sides. If the length of the shortest leg is $\ell_1$ , then the length of the longer leg is $\ell_2=\sqrt3\ell_1$ and the hypotenuse has length $\ell_3=\sqrt{{\ell_1}^2+{\ell_2}^2}=2\ell_1$ .

Since $x$ is the shortest leg in the larger triangle, it follows that $a+b=2x$ , so $a+b=15=2x\implies x=\dfrac{15}2$
