Describe different ways in which a plane might the cylinder,and the cross section the results.

1 answer:

5 0

The plane could be:
-perpendicular to the axis --> gives a circle
-parallel to the axis and tangent to the cylinder --> gives a line
-parallel to the axis and not tangent to the cylinder --> gives a pair of parallel lines
-neither perpendicular nor parallel to the axis --> gives an ellipse

A circle is defined by the equation x2 + y2 + 8x + 22y + 37 = 0. What are the coordinates for the center of the circle and the l

inn [45]

We can say that:
8x = -2ax
8 = -2a
a = -4

22y = - 2by
22 = -2b
b = -11

37 = a² + b² - r²
37 = (-4)² + (-11)² - r²
r² = 16 + 121 - 37
r² = 100
r = 10

With all this information, we can say that:
The center of the circle is: (-4 ; -11)
and the radius of the circle is r = 10

P.S:
(a - x)² + (b-y)² = r²
a² - 2ax + x² + b² -2by + y² - r² = 0
x² + y² -2ax - 2by + a² + b² - r² = 0

How to find the multiplicity of a zero of a polynomial function?

Monica [59]

<span>The multiplicity of a zero of a polynomial function is how many times a particular number is a zero for a given polynomial.

For example, in the polynomial function $f(x)=x(x+4)^2(x-2)^3$ , the zeros are 0 with a multiplicity of 1, -4 with a multiplicity of 2, and 2 with a multiplicity of 3.

Although this polynomial has only three zeros, we say that it has six zeros (or degree of 6) counting the <span>multiplicities.</span></span>
