RS => y - 5 = (8 - 5)/(1 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3/2 (x + 1) => slope = 3/2
ST => y - 8 = (-2 - 8)/(7 - 1) (x - 1)
y - 8 = -10/6 (x - 1) = -5/3 (x - 1) => slope = -5/3
TU => y - (-2) = (0 - (-2))/(2 - 7) (x - 7)
y + 2 = 2/5(x - 7) => slope = 2/5
UR => y = 5/(-1 - 2) (x - 2)
y = -5/3 (x - 2) => slope = -5/3
The median is the line joining the midpoints of the non-parallel sides.
Midpoint of RS = ((-1 + 1)/2, (5 + 8)/2) = (0, 13/2)
Midpoint of TU = ((7 + 2)/2, -2/2) = (9/2, -1)
Equation of the line joining (0, 13/2) and (9/2, -1) is given by y - 13/2 = (-1 - 13/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = (-15/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = -15/9x
18y - 117 = -30x
30x + 18y = 117
15 divided by 6 2/3 is 2.25. Or 2 1/4. Pick C
Applying the trigonometry ratios, we have:
a. CD = 63.6
b. CD = 33.8
c. CD = 16.1
d. CD = 15.9
<h3>What are the Trigonometry Ratios?</h3>
The trigonometry ratios are used to find a length or angle in any right triangle. They are:
- SOH, which is sin ∅ = opp/hyp
- CAH, which is cos ∅ = adj/hyp
- TOA, which is tan ∅ = opp/adj
a. ∅ = 32°
hyp = 75
adj = CD
Apply CAH:
cos 32 = CD/75
CD = cos 32 × 75
CD = 63.6
b. ∅ = 56°
opp = 28
hyp = CD
Apply SOH:
sin 56 = 28/CD
CD = 28/sin 56
CD = 33.8
c. ∅ = 43°
opp = 15
adj = CD
Apply TOA:
tan 43 = 15/CD
CD = 15/tan 43
CD = 16.1
d. ∅ = 27°
hyp = 35
opp = CD
Apply SOH:
sin 27 = CD/35
CD = sin 27 × 35
CD = 15.9
