Yes it is. Input the numbers into the pythagorean theorem,

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}$

and if they equal each other it is a right triangle.

Explain how you find it

aliina [53]

Answer:

x = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a theorem that states that the midsegment in a trapezoid is equal to the sum of the bases divided by two

so, (36 + 42)/2 = x

36 + 42 = 78

78/2 = 39

The captain of a boat knows that a lighthouse on the coast is 100 ft

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Height of the light house $=7.5\ feet$

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance of light house from boat = 100 ft

Angle of elevation from boat to the top of light house = 2°

Height above water while taking measurement = 4 ft

The figure of the situation is shown below.

For Δ ABC

$\tan2\°=\frac {AB}{BC}$

$\tan2\°=\frac {AB}{100}$

$0.035=\frac {AB}{100}$

Multiplying both sides by 100.

$100\times 0.035=100\times\frac {AB}{100}$

$3.5=AB$

∴ $AB=3.5$

Height of the light house $=3.5+4=7.5\ feet$

Can a local maximum also be a point of inflection? Explain.

myrzilka [38]

Inflection points are where the function changes concavity. Since concave up corresponds to a positive second derivative and concave down corresponds to a negative second derivative, then when the function changes from concave up to concave down (or vise versa) the second derivative must equal zero at that point. So the second derivative must equal zero to be an inflection point. But don't get excited yet. You have to make sure that the concavity actually changes at that point.
