Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

tan a = $\frac{9}{40}$ = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

We require the hypotenuse h

Using Pythagoras' identity

h² = 9² + 40² = 81 + 1600 = 1681 ( take square root of both sides )

h = $\sqrt{1681}$ = 41 , thus

sin a = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{9}{41}$

cos a = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{40}{41}$

Calculate this reflection of the triangle:

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

a = 3, b = 0, c = 0, d = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the reflection Multiply the matrices

∵ The dimension of the first matrix is 2 × 2

∵ The dimension of the second matrix is 2 × 3

1. Multiply the first row of the 1st matrix by each column in the second matrix add the products of each column to get the first row in the 3rd matrix.

2. Multiply the second row of the 1st matrix by each column in the second matrix add the products of each column to get the second row of the 3rd matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&-1\end{array}\right]$ × $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&3&0\\0&0&2\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}(1*0+0*0)&(1*3+0*0)&(1*0+0*2)\\(0*0+-1*0)&(0*3+-1*0)&(0*0+-1*2)\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&3&0\\0&0&-2\end{array}\right]$

Compare the elements in the answer with the third matrix to find the values of a, b, c, and d

∴ a = 3

∴ b = 0

∴ c = 0

∴ d = -2

What is the difference between constructing and drawing geometric figures? Give a real-world example of each.

Furkat [3]

The difference between constructing and drawing geometric figures:
Drawing Geometric Figures refers to drafting, in which you are trying to create or sketch geometric figures using ruler, paper, etc.
While constructing geometric figure refers to constructing or building a geometric figure with the use of compass, graph paper, etc.
