A. Find PR in the diagram b. Find the perimeter of quadrilateral PQRS

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadrilateral has 4 sides and only two of them are equal.

A) to find PR, we will consider the triangle, PRQ.

Using cosine rule

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2abcos A

We are looking for PR

PR^2 = 8^2 + 7^2 - 2 ×8 × 7Cos70

PR^2 = 64 + 49 - 112 × 0.3420

PR^2 = 113 - 38.304 = 74.696

PR = √74.696 = 8.64

B) to find the perimeter of PQRS, we will consider the triangle, RSP. It is an isosceles triangle. Therefore, two sides and two base angles are equal. To determine the length of SP,

We will use the sine rule because only one side,PR is known

For sine rule,

a/sinA = b/sinB

SP/ sin 35 = 8.64/sin110

Cross multiplying

SPsin110 = 8.64sin35

SP = 8.64sin35/sin110

SP = (8.64 × 0.5736)/0.9397

SP = 5.27

SR = SP = 5.27

The perimeter of the quadrilateral PQRS is the sum of the sides. The perimeter = 8 + 7 + 5.27 + 5.27 = 25.54 cm

The probability that a region prone to hurricanes will be hit by a hurricane in any single year is 0.1 and independent of other
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

0.40951  

Step-by-step explanation:

P(none in five years)   = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

P(at least one) = 1 - P(none in five years)

= 1 - 0.9^{5}

= 1 - 0.59049

= 0.40951

So the probability of a hurricane hit at least once in the next 5 years is  0.40951

Which of the following is not a property of a chi-square distribution?
laiz [17]

Answer:

c) Is not a property (hence (d) is not either)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the chi square distribution with k degrees of freedom has this formula

\chi_k^2 = \matchal{N}_1^2 +  \matchal{N}_2^2 + ... + \, \matchal{N}_{k-1}^2 +  \matchal{N}_k^2

Where N₁ , N₂m .... N_k are independent random variables with standard normal distribution. Since it is a sum of squares, then the chi square distribution cant take negative values, thus (c) is not true as property. Therefore, (d) cant be true either.

Since the chi square is a sum of squares of a symmetrical random variable, it is skewed to the right (values with big absolute value, either positive or negative, will represent a big weight for the graph that is not compensated with values near 0). This shows that (a) is true

The more degrees of freedom the chi square has, the less skewed to the right it is, up to the point of being almost symmetrical for high values of k. In fact, the Central Limit Theorem states that a chi sqare with n degrees of freedom, with n big, will have a distribution approximate to a Normal distribution, therefore, it is not very skewed for high values of n. As a conclusion, the shape of the distribution changes when the degrees of freedom increase, because the distribution is more symmetrical the higher the degrees of freedom are. Thus, (b) is true.
