A complex number z=a+bi had an absolute value of 3.28. What could the values of a and b be ? A.a=1.5,b=1.7 C.a=1.7,b=2.8

1 answer:

4 0

The given complex number is ⇒ z = a + b i
The absolute value of z = √( a² + b² ) = 3.28
So, we will check which of the options will give 3.28

( A) IF ⇒⇒ a=1.5 and b=1.7

∴ √( a² + b² ) = √( 1.5² + 1.7²) = √5.14 ≈ 2.27

===================================

(B) IF ⇒⇒ a=1.5 and b=3.3

∴ √( a² + b² ) = √(1.5² + 3.3²) = √13.14 ≈ 3.62

====================================

(C) IF ⇒⇒ a=1.7 and b=2.8

∴ √( a² + b² ) = √(1.7² + 2.8²) = √10.73 ≈ 3.28

====================================

(D) IF ⇒⇒ a=2.8 and b=3.3

∴ √( a² + b² ) = √(2.8² + 3.3²) = √18.73 ≈ 4.33
=====================================
So, the correct answer is option (C) a=1.7,b=2.8

XY and BD are parallel lines.

Answer:

a) Angle XBC = 55° because corresponding angles are equal.

b) Angle BXC = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The image of the complete question is attached to this solution.

a) Angle XBC = 55° because....

Line XY and BD are parallel.

A straight line, AB, crosses the two parallel lines, thereby making angles AXY and XBC corresponding angles because they occupy the same relative position at points where the straight line, AB, intersects the two lines XY and BD.

Since the two lines, XY and BD, are parallel, the corresponding angles related to them are said to be equal.

b) Angle BXC

Since we have found and confirmed that angle XBC is truly 55°.

Triangle BXC is an isosceles triangle, with sides BX and XC equal, the base angles XBC and BCX are both equal.

Angle XBC = Angle BCX = 55° (base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal)

Then, the sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

Hence,

(Angle XBC) + (Angle BCX) + (Angle BXC) = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

55° + 55° + Angle BXC = 180°

Angle BXC = 180° - 110° = 70°

Hope this Helps!!!

No question but can you help me with Finding PI lol I don’t really get it. I will mark brainliest 60 points 30 for each person t

Answer:

Make sure you are using a perfect circle. This method won't work with ellipses, ovals or anything but a real circle. A circle is defined as all the points on a plane that are an equal distance from a single center point. The lids of jars are good household objects to use for this exercise.You should be able to calculate pi roughly because in order to get exact results of pi, you will need to ...

Measure the circumference of a circle as accurately as you can. The circumference is the length that goes around the entire edge of the circle. Since the circumference is round, it can be difficult to measure (that's why pi is so important). Lay a string over the circle as closely as you can. Mark the string off where it circles back around, and then measure the string length with a ruler.

Measure the diameter of the circle. The diameter runs from one side of the circle to the other through the circle's center point.

Use the formula. The circumference of a circle is found with the formula C= π*d = 2*π*r. Thus pi equals a circle's circumference divided by its diameter. Plug your numbers into a calculator: the result should be roughly 3.14.[3] X Research source

Repeat this process with several different circles, and then average the results.
