Answer:

<em>Area of polygon D = 10 square units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Polygon <em>C </em>has an area of 40 square units.

It is scaled with a scale factor of \frac{1}2 to form a new polygon D.

<u></u>

<u>To find:</u>

The area of polygon D = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

When any polygon is scaled to half, then all the sides of new polygon are half of the original polygon.

And the area becomes one-fourth of the original polygon.

Let us consider this by taking examples:

  • First of all, let us consider a right angled triangle with sides <em>6, 8 and 10 units.</em>

Area of a right angled triangle is given by:

A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height\\\Rightarrow A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8 = 24\ sq\ units

If scaled with a factor \frac{1}{2}, the sides will be 3, 4 and 5.

New area, A':

A' =\dfrac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 4 = 6\ sq\ units = \dfrac{1}4\times A

i.e. Area becomes one fourth.

  • Let us consider a rectangle now.

Sides be 8 and 10 units.

Area of a rectangle, A = Length \times Width = 8 \times 10 = 80 sq units.

Now after scaling, the sides will be 4 and 5 units.

New Area, A' = 4 \times 5 =20 sq units

So, \bold{A' = \frac{1}4 \times A}

Now, we can apply the same in the given question.

\therefore Area of polygon D = \bold{\frac{1}{4}}\times Area of polygon C

Area of polygon D = \bold{\frac{1}{4}}\times 40 = <em>10 sq units</em>

which functions have a range of all real numbers ? check all that apply. A. y=csc x B. y=sec x C. y=tan x D. y= cot x
Natalka [10]

None of these. All of these functions are defined as ratio of trigonometric functions.

Trigonometric functions have infinite zeroes, so when you put them in the denominator, they lead to infinitely many points of ill-definition.

Specifically, we have:

\csc(x) = \dfrac{1}{\sin(x)}

which is undefined at

\sin(x)=0\iff x=k\pi, k\in\mathbb{Z}

\sec(x) = \dfrac{1}{\cos(x)}

which is undefined at

\cos(x)=0\iff x=\dfrac{\pi}{2}+k\pi, k\in\mathbb{Z}

\tan(x) = \dfrac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}

which is undefined at

\cos(x)=0\iff x=\dfrac{\pi}{2}+k\pi, k\in\mathbb{Z}

\cot(x) = \dfrac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}

which is undefined at

\sin(x)=0\iff x=k\pi, k\in\mathbb{Z}

9 less than the sum of x and 5
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Given the statement:

9 less than the sum of x and 5

"Sum of x and 5" means x+5

"\text{less than}" means subtract

then;

the statement 9 less than the sum of x and 5 becomes;

⇒(x+5) - 9

⇒x+5-9 = x-4

Therefore, the expression for the given statement is (x+5) - 9

Is each fraction in simples form? Write yes or no 2/4
shusha [124]
Hey there! :D

When a fraction is still divisible by a number, then it is not in it's simplest form. 

For example, 3/6. 

I know for a fact that 6/3=2 <== 3 is also divisible by itself. 

3/6 (3/3=1) (6/6=1) 

1/2 <== simplest form. 

Try the same with 2/4. 

4 is divisible by 2. 

4/2= 2

2/2=1

1/2 is the simplest form. 

I hope this helps!
