Answer:

The another root of the polynomial x^2-4x+1=0  is 2-\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

let x=2+\sqrt{3} is a polynomial root.

Subtracting both sides by 2, we get

x-2=\sqrt{3}

Squaring both sides, we get

(x-2)^2=(\sqrt{3})^2

x^2+4-4x=3

On solving we get,

x^2-4x+1=0

Using quadratic formula:

x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

If one of the root of the polynomial is 2+\sqrt{3} ; then another root by quadratic formula is 2-\sqrt{3}

or else we can say that irrational roots will always come in conjugate pairs.

Sso, if 2+\sqrt{3}is a root, then 2-\sqrt{3} is also a root.

We are given the root of a polynomial root 2 + sqrt(3) in which we are asked in the problem to determine the other root of the polynomial. SInce this is an irrational number, then the other root should be the conjugate of that number.Hence the answer to this problem should be 2 - sqrt 3.

Find the altitude of a cylinder with with a radius of 9 and a surface area of approximately 791.68 units2.
Vika [28.1K]

In this question , it is given that we have a cylinder with with a radius of 9 and a surface area of approximately 791.68 units square.

The formula of surface area of cylinder is

A= 2 \pi r^2 + 2 \pi r h

Substituting the values of A and r, we will get

791.68 = 2* \pi * 9^2  + 2 * \pi * 9*h
\\
791.68 = 162 \pi + 18 \pi h
\\
791.68 -162 \pi = 18 \pi h
\\
h = \frac{791.68 -162 \pi}{18 \pi}
\\
h =5 units

So the height of the cylinder is 5 units .

The figure shows a kite inside a rectangle. Which expression represents the area of the shaded region? 2x2 4x2 6x2 8x2
Savatey [412]
The picture in the attached figure

we know that
area of the <span>the shaded region=area of rectangle -area of a kite

area of rectangle=(3x+x)*(x+x)----> 4x*2x---> 8x</span>²

area of a kite=(1/2)*[d1*d2]
where d1 and d2 are the diagonals
d1=4x
d2=2x
so
area of a kite=(1/2)*[4x*2x]----> 4x²

area of the the shaded region=8x²-4x²-----> 4x²

the answer is 
4x²
