The sum will be:
sigma(i = 1 to infinity, 30*(2/5)^i)
->
Which is equal to 30/(3/5) = 50
I think formula is y2-y1 divided by x2-x1 so if im correct
-5/-4
All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of (long leg)/(short leg) is the same. The long leg of ΔADB is
.. AD = AC -DC = 20 -4
.. AD = 16
Then
.. (long leg)/(short leg) = AD/DB = BD/DC
.. 16/h = h/4
.. h^2 = 64
.. h = 8
Selection D is appropriate.
_____
You may see this again. The altitude (h) from the right angle in a right triangle is the geometric mean of segments AD and DC. That is,
.. h = √((AD)*(DC))
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically, this question is asking the legs of the triangle shown in the graph.
In this right triangle, there are 2 legs and one of them is 6400 meters. We were asked to find out the length of the other led. And we know the angle is 16.5 deg.
Using Tangent to find out:
set the length of the other leg is x meters.
tan(16.5) = 6400/x
x= 6400/tan(16.5)
x= 21606 m
First step: x= ± √ 121
Second step and correct answer: x= ± 11
Because: x^2 = x= ± √
