Answer:

270 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a triangle is 1/2 base times height

The base is 36 and the height is 15 so the answer would be equal to

1/2(36 * 15)

36 * 15 = 540

1/2(540) = 270

The answer simplifies to 270 units^2 because this is area and area is always squared

find the coordinates of the vertex of the following parabola algebraically. write your answer as an (x,y) point..y=x²+9

Alexandra [31]

Explanation:

using the parabola formula:

y = a(x-h)² + k²

vertex = (h, k)

We are given a parebola equation of: y = x²+9

comparing both equations to get the vertex:

y = y

a = 1

(x-h)² = x²

x² = (x + 0)²

(x-h)² = (x + 0)²

h = 0

+k = +9

k = 9

The vertex of the parabola as (x, y): (0, 9)

Replace x with π/2 - x to get the equivalent integral

$\displaystyle \int_{-\frac\pi2}^{\frac\pi2} \cos(\cot(x) - \tan(x)) \, dx$

but the integrand is even, so this is really just

$\displaystyle 2 \int_0^{\frac\pi2} \cos(\cot(x) - \tan(x)) \, dx$

Substitute x = 1/2 arccot(u/2), which transforms the integral to

$\displaystyle 2 \int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{\cos(u)}{u^2+4} \, du$

There are lots of ways to compute this. What I did was to consider the complex contour integral

$\displaystyle \int_\gamma \frac{e^{iz}}{z^2+4} \, dz$

where γ is a semicircle in the complex plane with its diameter joining (-R, 0) and (R, 0) on the real axis. A bound for the integral over the arc of the circle is estimated to be

$\displaystyle \left|\int_{z=Re^{i0}}^{z=Re^{i\pi}} f(z) \, dz\right| \le \frac{\pi R}{|R^2-4|}$

which vanishes as R goes to ∞. Then by the residue theorem, we have in the limit

$\displaystyle \int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{\cos(x)}{x^2+4} \, dx = 2\pi i {} \mathrm{Res}\left(\frac{e^{iz}}{z^2+4},z=2i\right) = \frac\pi{2e^2}$

and it follows that

$\displaystyle \int_0^\pi \cos(\cot(x)-\tan(x)) \, dx = \boxed{\frac\pi{e^2}}$
