Answer:
the minimum is (1,-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 5x^2 - 10x - 4
since the parabola opens upward 5>0, this will have a minimum
it will occur along the axis of symmetry h=-b/2a
y =ax^2 +bx+c
h = -(-10)/2*5
h = 10/10 =1
the minimum occurs at x =1
the y value for the minimum is calculated by substituting x =1 back into the equation
y = 5 * 1^2 - 10*1 -4
y = 5*1^2 -10 -4
y = 5-10-4
y = -9
the minimum is (1,-9)
Answer:
you have to add them together
The answer is 5 and 18. This is because 5 times five is 25. 25 minus 7 is 18.
As soon as I read this, the words "law of cosines" popped
into my head. I don't have a good intuitive feeling for the
law of cosines, but I went and looked it up (you probably
could have done that), and I found that it's exactly what
you need for this problem.
The "law of cosines" relates the lengths of the sides of any
triangle to the cosine of one of its angles ... just what we need,
since we know all the sides, and we want to find one of the angles.
To find angle-B, the law of cosines says
b² = a² + c² - 2 a c cosine(B)
B = angle-B
b = the side opposite angle-B = 1.4
a, c = the other 2 sides = 1 and 1.9
(1.4)² = (1)² + (1.9)² - (2 x 1 x 1.9) cos(B)
1.96 = (1) + (3.61) - (3.8) cos(B)
Add 3.8 cos(B) from each side:
1.96 + 3.8 cos(B) = 4.61
Subtract 1.96 from each side:
3.8 cos(B) = 2.65
Divide each side by 3.8 :
cos(B) = 0.69737 (rounded)
Whipping out the
trusty calculator:
B = the angle whose cosine is 0.69737
= 45.784° .
Now, for the first time, I'll take a deep breath, then hold it
while I look back at the question and see whether this is
anywhere near one of the choices ...
By gosh ! Choice 'B' is 45.8° ! yay !
I'll bet that's it !
the length of the side of this square is 
cm
Answer:
Solutions Given:
let diagonal of square be AC: 8 cm
let each side be a.
As diagonal bisect square.
let it forms right angled triangle ABC .
Where diagonal AC is hypotenuse and a is their opposite side and base.
By using Pythagoras law
hypotenuse ²=opposite side²+base side²
8²=a²+a²
64=2a²
a²=
a²=32
doing square root on both side
a=±
a=±2*2
Since side of square is always positive so
a=4 or 5.65 cm
