For a 30-60-90 triangle
if the shorter leg (oposite 30 degrees) is x then the other leg is x√3 and the hyptonuse is 2x

so
hyptonuse=8
8=2x
4=x

longer leg is 4√3, yep
so shorter leg or height will be 4 units

Describe the transformation of the graph of f into the graph of g as either a horizontal or vertical stretch. f(x)=sqrt(x) and g

SpyIntel [72]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \textit{function transformations}
\\ \quad \\\\
% left side templates
\begin{array}{llll}
f(x)=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
y=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}\sqrt{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}(\mathbb{R})^{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}} sin\left({{ B }}x+{{ C}} \right)+{{ D}}
\end{array}\\\\
--------------------\\\\$

$\bf \bullet \textit{ stretches or shrinks horizontally by } {{ A}}\cdot {{ B}}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ flips it upside-down if }{{ A}}\textit{ is negative}\\
\left. \qquad \right. \textit{reflection over the x-axis}
\\\\
\bullet \textit{ flips it sideways if }{{ B}}\textit{ is negative}\\
\left. \qquad \right. \textit{reflection over the y-axis}$

$\bf \bullet \textit{ horizontal shift by }\frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is negative, to the right}\\\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is positive, to the left}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ vertical shift by }{{ D}}\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is negative, downwards}\\\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is positive, upwards}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ period of }\frac{2\pi }{{{ B}}}$

with that template in mind, let's see $\bf f(x)=\sqrt{x}\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
g(x)=&\sqrt{0.5x}\\
&\quad \uparrow \\
&\quad B
\end{array}$

so B went form 1 on f(x), down to 0.5 or 1/2 on g(x)
B = 1/2, thus the graph is stretched by twice as much.

I need help ASAP please

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is equal to the base times the height divided by two. In this case, the base is 6 (or x, it doesn't really matter) and the height is x (or 6, it doesn't matter). That means that the area of this triangle is equal to 6 * x divided by 2, which is also equal to 18. we can say that 6x/2 = 18, meaning that 6x = 36, so x = 6.

How do i graph the lines when the equations aren’t in slope intercept form????

jekas [21]

Slope-Intercept Form: y=mx+b

Standard Form: ax+by=c

Point- Slope: (y-y1)= m(x-x1)

There are multiple answers to your question-

If you are only missing b(the y-intercept) but are given a set of points, plug the points into x and y and solve for b.
If you are only missing the slope(m) but are given a set of points, plug the points into x and y and solve for m.
If you are given the standard form/point-slope form, change the equation to slope intercept form.
If you are given an complete form(there is an x and y; no missing variables), but are not sure what it is, plug in some numbers in x to find y, then graph.
