Answer:

Perimeter  = a + b + sqrt ( (a^2/4) + b^2 ) + sqrt(3)a/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • ΔABC is equilateral
  • AB = a
  • The diagram is given below
  • AM is a Median
  • PB ⊥ AB
  • PM = b

Find

Perimeter of ΔPBM

Formula

Perimeter of ABM = AB + PB + PM + AM

Solution

  • AB = a                     Given
  • PM = b                     Given
  • PB = sqrt( (a/2)^2 + b^2)
  • PB = sqrt( a^2/4   + b^2)    PMB is a right angle  Pythagoras applies.
  • AM = sqrt( AB^2 - BM^2)  AMB is a right angle Pythagoras applies.
  • AM = sqrt(a^2 - (a/2)^2 ) = sqrt(3)a/2

Perimeter  = a + b + sqrt ( (a^2/4) + b^2 ) + sqrt(3)a/2   Answer

Write the 5th term in the expansion of (5x-y/2)^7
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

65625/4(x^5)(y²)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using binomial expansion

Formula: (n k) (a^k)(b ^(n-k))

Where (n k) represents n combination of k (nCk)

From the question k = 5 (i.e. 5th term)

n = 7 (power of expression)

a = 5x

b = -y/2

....................

Solving nCk

n = 7

k = 5

nCk = 7C5

= 7!/(5!2!) ------ Expand Expression

=7 * 6 * 5! /(5! * 2*1)

= 7*6/2

= 21 ------

.........................

Solving (a^k) (b^(n-k))

a = 5x

b = -y/2

k = 5

n = 7

Substituting these values in the expression

(5x)^5 * (-y/2)^(7-5)

= (3125x^5) * (-y/2)²

= 3125x^5 * y²/4

= (3125x^5)(y²)/4

------------------------------------

Multiplying the two expression above

21 * (3125x^5)(y²)/4

= 65625/4(x^5)(y²)
