He should buy 32 feet of fencing. I got 32 by just finding the perimeter or in other words adding 10+10+6+6 which equal 32. You would NOT do area or 10×6 because that would include that land within the fenced area and who wants 60 feet of fencing that you can't put anything in?

Good luck, hope that helped.

If the nth term of a number sequence is n squared -5 find the first 3 terms and the 10th term

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

If the nth term is n^-5,

Then the first term will be (1)^-5=1

Second term will be (2)^-5= 1/32

3rd term=(3)^-5 = 1/243

So, 10th term will be (10)^-5=1/100000

Given two points P(sinθ+2, tanθ-2) and Q(4sin²θ+4sinθcosθ+2acosθ, 3sinθ-2cosθ+a). Find constant "a" and the corresponding value

vodomira [7]

Answer:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \displaystyle θ= {60}^{ \circ} , {300}^{ \circ}$

$\rm \displaystyle a = - \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - 1, \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given two coincident points

$\displaystyle P( \sin(θ)+2, \tan(θ)-2) \: \text{and } \\ \displaystyle Q(4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ), 3 \sin(θ)-2 \cos(θ)+a)$

since they are coincident points

$\rm \displaystyle P( \sin(θ)+2, \tan(θ)-2) = \displaystyle Q(4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ )\cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ), 3 \sin(θ)-2 \cos(θ)+a)$

By order pair we obtain:

$\begin{cases} \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ) = \sin( \theta) + 2 \\ \\ \displaystyle 3 \sin( \theta) - 2 \cos( \theta) + a = \tan( \theta) - 2\end{cases}$

now we end up with a simultaneous equation as we have two variables

to figure out the simultaneous equation we can consider using substitution method

to do so, make a the subject of the equation.therefore from the second equation we acquire:

$\begin{cases} \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sinθ \cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ )= \sin( \theta) + 2 \\ \\ \boxed{\displaystyle a = \tan( \theta) - 2 - 3 \sin( \theta) + 2 \cos( \theta) } \end{cases}$

now substitute:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \cos(θ) \{\tan( \theta) - 2 - 3 \sin( \theta) + 2 \cos( \theta) \}= \sin( \theta) + 2$

distribute:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2}( θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) - 6 \sin( \theta) \cos( \theta) + 4 \cos ^{2} ( \theta) = \sin( \theta) + 2$

collect like terms:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2}( θ) - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) + 4 \cos ^{2} ( \theta) = \sin( \theta) + 2$

rearrange:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2}( θ) + 4 \cos ^{2} ( \theta) - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) + = \sin( \theta) + 2$

by Pythagorean theorem we obtain:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) = \sin( \theta) + 2$

cancel 4 from both sides:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) = \sin( \theta) - 2$

move right hand side expression to left hand side and change its sign:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+\sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) + 2 = 0$

factor out sin:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) (- 2 \cos(θ)+1) - 4\cos( \theta) + 2 = 0$

factor out 2:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) (- 2 \cos(θ)+1) + 2(- 2\cos( \theta) + 1 ) = 0$

group:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle ( \sin (θ) + 2)(- 2 \cos(θ)+1) = 0$

factor out -1:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle - ( \sin (θ) + 2)(2 \cos(θ) - 1) = 0$

divide both sides by -1:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle ( \sin (θ) + 2)(2 \cos(θ) - 1) = 0$

by Zero product property we acquire:

$\begin{cases}\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) + 2 = 0 \\ \displaystyle2 \cos(θ) - 1= 0 \end{cases}$

cancel 2 from the first equation and add 1 to the second equation since -1≤sinθ≤1 the first equation is false for any value of theta

$\begin{cases}\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) \neq - 2 \\ \displaystyle2 \cos(θ) = 1\end{cases}$

divide both sides by 2:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \displaystyle \cos(θ) = \frac{1}{2}$

by unit circle we get:

$\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \displaystyle θ= {60}^{ \circ} , {300}^{ \circ}$

so when θ is 60° a is:

$\rm \displaystyle a = \tan( {60}^{ \circ} ) - 2 - 3 \sin( {60}^{ \circ} ) + 2 \cos( {60}^{ \circ} )$

recall unit circle:

$\rm \displaystyle a = \sqrt{3} - 2 - \frac{ 3\sqrt{3} }{2} + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}$

simplify which yields:

$\rm \displaystyle a = - \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - 1$

when θ is 300°

$\rm \displaystyle a = \tan( {300}^{ \circ} ) - 2 - 3 \sin( {300}^{ \circ} ) + 2 \cos( {300}^{ \circ} )$

remember unit circle:

$\rm \displaystyle a = - \sqrt{3} - 2 + \frac{3\sqrt{ 3} }{2} + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}$

simplify which yields:

$\rm \displaystyle a = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - 1$

and we are done!
