Part 1 = 2/9

Part 2 =5/9

Part 3 =7/9

Explanation

To convert the a repeating decimals this are the steps;

Part 1

Let x = 0.222222... (i)

10x = 2.222222... (ii)

Subtract equation (i) from equation(ii)

10x = 2.222222....

-x = 0.222222....

9x = 2.00000..

∴ 9x = 2

Divide by 9 both sides;

x = 2/9

Part 2

Let x = 0.5555...

10x = 5.5555...

subtract equation (i) from equation (ii).

10x = 5.5555..

- x = 0.5555..

9x = 5.0000..

∴ 9x = 5

x = 5/9

Part 3

Let x = 0.7777....

10x = 7.7777...

Subtracting equation (i) from equation (ii)

10x = 7.7777...

-x = 0.7777...

9x = 7.000..

∴ 9x = 7

x = 7/9

Pattern noted

When converting the repeating decimals to fraction only one number was repeating. This made the three decimals have the same fraction.

Maggie graphed the image of a 90 counterclockwise rotation about vertex A of . Coordinates B and C of are (2, 6) and (4, 3) and

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

A(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the vertex A has coordinates $(x_A,y_A)$

Vectors AB and AB' are perpendicular, then

$\overrightarrow {AB}=(2-x_A,6-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AB'}=(-2-x_A,2-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AB}\perp\overrightarrow {AB'}\Rightarrow \overrightarrow {AB}\cdot \overrightarrow {AB'}=0\Rightarrow (2-x_A)(-2-x_A)+(6-y_A)(2-y_A)=0$

Vectors AC and AC' are perpendicular, then

$\overrightarrow {AC}=(4-x_A,3-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AC'}=(1-x_A,4-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AC}\perp\overrightarrow {AC'}\Rightarrow \overrightarrow {AC}\cdot \overrightarrow {AC'}=0\Rightarrow (4-x_A)(1-x_A)+(3-y_A)(4-y_A)=0$

Now, solve the system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}(2-x_A)(-2-x_A)+(6-y_A)(2-y_A)=0\\ \\(4-x_A)(1-x_A)+(3-y_A)(4-y_A)=0\end{array}\right.\\ \\\left\{\begin{array}{l}-4-2x_A+2x_A+x_A^2+12-6y_A-2y_A+y^2_A=0\\ \\4-4x_A-x_A+x_A^2+12-3y_A-4y_A+y_A^2=0\end{array}\right.\\ \\\left\{\begin{array}{l}x_A^2+y_A^2-8y_A+8=0\\ \\x_A^2+y_A^2-5x_A-7y_A+16=0\end{array}\right.$

Subtract these two equations:

$5x_A-y_A-8=0\Rightarrow y_A=5x_A-8$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$x_A^2+(5x_A-8)^2-8(5x_A-8)+8=0\\ \\x_A^2+25x_A^2-80x_A+64-40x_A+64+8=0\\ \\26x_A^2-120x_A+136=0\\ \\13x_A^2-60x_A+68=0\\ \\D=(-60)^2-4\cdot 13\cdot 68=3600-3536=64\\ \\x_{A_{1,2}}=\dfrac{60\pm8}{2\cdot 13}=\dfrac{34}{13},2$

Then

$y_{A_{1,2}}=5\cdot \dfrac{34}{13}-8 \text{ or } 5\cdot 2-8\\ \\=\dfrac{66}{13}\text{ or } 2$

Rotation by 90° counterclockwise about A(2,2) gives image points B' and C' (see attached diagram)

Triangle ABC has a perimeter 22cm AB = 8cm BC =8cm By calculation, deduce whether triangle ABC is a right angle triangle. NEED A

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

No ABC is not a triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 22 cm

AB = 8 cm ; BC = 8 cm

AC = 22 - ( 8 + 8 ) = 6 cm

But all those sides doesn't follow Pythagorean Theorem(AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2) ....because 8^2 + 8^2 isn't equal to 6^2 ......

Had it followed the theorem , it could have been a right angle triangle...
