Wow this is a doozy! First you have to figure out what is it you are looking for? If you make a dot in the center of the triangle (which is also the center of the circle) and draw a line from the center to one of the vertices of the triangle you have the radius of the triangle and also of the circle. If you draw all 3 radii from the triangle's center to its vertices, you see you have created 3 triangles within that one triangle. The trick here is to figure out what your triangle measures are as far as angles go. If we take the interior measures of those 3 triangles, we get that each one has a measure of 120 (360/3=120). So that's one of your angles, the one across from the side measuring 6. Because of the Isosceles Triangle theorem, we know that the 2 base angles have the same measure because the sides are the same. Subtracting 120 from 180 gives you 60 which, divided in half, makes each of those remaining angles measure 30 degrees. So if we extract that one triangle from the big one, we have a triangle with angles that measure 30-30-120, with the base measuring 6 and each of the other sides measuring 5. If we then split that triangle into 2 right triangles, we have one right triangle with measures 30-60-90. Dropping that altitude to create 2 right triangles not only split the 120 degree angle at the top in half, it also split the base side of 6 in half. So our right triangle has a base of 3 and we are looking for the hypotenuse of that right triangle. WE have to use right triangle trig for that. Since we have the top angle of 60 and the base of 3, we can use sin60=3/x. Solving for x we have x=3/sin60 which gives us an x value of 3.5 inches rounded from 3.464. I'm not sure what you mean by a mixed number unless you mean a decimal, but that's the radius of that circle.
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
10^2/5^2
Do the exponents first
10 to the 2nd power is 100
5 to the 2nd power is 25
100/25
100 divided by 25 is 4
So the answer is 4
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Point 1: (-5.03, 0.001)
Point 2: (0, 0.333)
Point 3: (3.068, 9.698)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(-1,0) and (3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-intercepts are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis. (-1,0) and (3,0)
We know that this is a parabola, as the equation is denoted by the x^2 term.
We can see that the symmetry is seen at the point -0.5, therefore making the axis of symmetry the vertical line -0.5.
The vertex is found in quadrant three. In other words, it will shift by a negative value both horizontally and vertically. The vertex is therefore (-0.5, -0.5).
We can verify this in the equations by using the formula (-b/2a) to find the vertex. The only quadratic equation that satisfies this is -2x^2 + 2x -1.
To sum it up, the answers are:
-2x^2 + 2x - 1.
AoS: x = -0.5
Vertex: (-0.5, -0.5).
