The slope would be 1/4 because to find the perpendicular slope, you find the negative reciprocal

Find a cartesian equation for the curve and identify it. r = 10 tan(θ) sec(θ)

Vilka [71]

For a cartesian equation
$x=r\cos\theta \ and \ y=r\sin\theta \\ \\ \cos\theta=\frac{x}{r} \ and \ \sin\theta=\frac{y}{r} \\ \\ \tan\theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\frac{y}{r}\cdot\frac{r}{x}=\frac{y}{x} \\ \\ \sec\theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}=\frac{r}{x}$

Given r = <span>10 tan(θ) sec(θ)
$r=10\tan\theta\sec\theta=10\cdot\frac{y}{x}\cdot\frac{r}{x} \\ \\ \Rightarrow10y=x^2 \\ \\ \Rightarrow y= \frac{1}{10} x^2$

Therefore,</span>the curve is a parabola opening upward with vertex (0, 0).

What is the volume of the prism?

jolli1 [7]

V=a*b*c, a=(2+1/2), b=(2+1/2), c=(6+1/2)
V=(2+1/2)*(2+1/2)*(6+1/2) = 15/2 = 7+1/2
(seven whole and one second)

Radio signals travel at a rate of 3 × 108 meters per second. How many seconds will it take for a radio signal to travel from a s

blondinia [14]

The time taken for radio signal to the earth's surface we shall proceed as follows;
time=(distance)/(speed)
Distance=7.5×10^6 meters
speed=3×10^8 meters/second
therefore:
Time=(7.5×10^6)/(3×10^8)=0.025 seconds
We conclude that it will take the signal 0.025 seconds to reach the surface of the earth.
