The point (2,1) is the turning point of y=x^2+ax+b where a and b are integers.Find the values of a and b
Umnica [9.8K]

In any parabola, the vertex is the turning point. And the x-coordinate of the vertex can be found using

x_V=-\dfrac{b}{2a}

So, in your case, you have

2=-\dfrac{a}{2}\iff a=-4

So, your equation actually looks like

y=x^2-4x+b

Now impose the passing through (2,1), i.e. substitute x=2, y=1 and solve for b:

1=4-8+b \iff b=5

Prove triangle AOC is congruent to triangle BOD​
marta [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two Triangles and we need to prove them congruent . In ∆AOC and ∆BOD , we have

\to AC = BD ( given ) \\\\\to OD = OA \\\\\to \angle CAO =\angle BDO (Since\ BD || AC )

Therefore by AAS congruent condition we can say that ,

\implies\red{ \triangle AOC \cong \triangle BOD }

Hence Proved!

Find the slope of the line through each pair of points (15,8) and (-17,9)
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

-1/32

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope using rise over run, (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the points, and simplify:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(9 - 8) / (-17 - 15)

1 / -32

= -1/32

So, the slope of the line is -1/32

How do you find the height of a triangle without knowing the area
g100num [7]
Well you already know your side lengths, so you use this formula S=1/2(A+B+C). For A put in one of your side lengths, for B put one of your side lengths, and for C put one of your side lengths. After you do that solve. But your not done. Once you find out what S equals by doing the formula I just showed you, you have to do another formula which is A= S(S-A)(S-B)(S-C). Once again plug in your side lengths for A,B, and C but then plug in your S value. (Remember you already found your S value by doing the first formula I showed you). Then do the math and then you will find your answer.
