Answer: Choice C) 10.5
The distance from A to C is 7 units (count out the spaces between the two points, or subtract y coordinates 4-(-3) = 4+3 = 7)
Let AC = 7 be the base of the triangle. You might want to rotate the image so that AC is laying horizontally rather than being vertical.
Now move to point P. Walk 3 spaces to the right until you land on segment AC. This shows that the height of the triangle is 3 when the base is AC = 7.
base = 7, height = 3
area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height
area of triangle = 0.5*7*3
area of triangle = 10.5 square units
(4c - 3d)(3c + d) =
= 12c² + 4cd - 9cd - 3d² =
= <u>12c² - 5cd - 3d²</u>
Answer:
=x<-7
If they're asking for work, I'd be glad to show.
Answer:
60.2 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the width of the river. The distance from the point across from the tree to the second point is 15 m. The angle from this point to the tree across the river is 76°.
This makes the side opposite the angle x, the width of the river. It also means the 15 m side is adjacent to this angle.
The ratio opposite/adjacent is the ratio for tangent; this gives us the equation
x/15 = tan(76)
Multiply both sides by 15:
15(x/15) = 15(tan(76))
x = 15(tan(76)) ≈ 60.2
