How is the degree of a polynomial related to the concept of complex numbers?

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra states that any constant-coefficient single-variable polynomial of degree n has (counting multiplicity) n complex roots (Real numbers are a subset of Complex numbers).


_____

Especially for higher-degree polynomials, some roots may not be real. Certainly, if the polynomial has complex coefficients (having an imaginary part), at least one root will be complex (have an imaginary part). That is, the only way you can find the roots is to admit the existence of complex numbers. One simple example is ...

... x^2 +1 = 0

Describe a similarity transformation that maps △ABC
PIT_PIT [208]

Let's start with a picture.

We see RST is smaller, and BC is parallel to but in the opposite direction to its corresponding segment ST.  Both have slope -1.

If we look at the difference of points (technically called vectors but we don't have to go there) we get

C-B=(-2,2)

T-S=(1,-1)

Without further calculation we can see T-S is half the length of C-B.

The problem asks for a dilation followed by a reflection.   We know the dilation scale is k=1/2 because the new triangle is half the size.  

After dilation we get A'B'C':

A'(3,2), B'(-1,0), C'(-2,1)

We see now we need a reflection that flips the coordinates x and y.  That's the +45° line through the origin, namely y=x.

Answer: k=1/2, y=x

liubo4ka [24]
Given:
two pieces of wood that are 5 feet long each.
form a triangle with a perimeter of a whole number.
third side the triangle will be the house 

Since two sides are already of the same length, he can create an isosceles triangle. 

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles.

Assuming that the 3rd side is also 5 feet long, then, he can create an equilateral triangle.

An equilateral triangle has three equal sides and three equal angles, measuring 60° each angle.
