Midpoint of AB is obviously 5 because its asking for half of the line .
Then layout the triangle as shown in the diagram .
then use Pythagoras theorem which is the hypotenuse squared is equal to the 2 shorter legs squared.
c2=a2+b2
c2=5^2+6^2
c2=25+36
c2=61
c=square root of 61

Using herons formula you find the area
s=24/2=12
A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}
A=24
and A=0.5 base height
sp
24=0.5 (base=AB=10)(height=c to the midpoint of segment AB)
24=5(height)
\frac{24}{5}=height

Lugar geométrico infinito formado por un conjunto de puntos que conservan la misma dirección
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

l lugar geométrico de los puntos que equidistan a otros dos puntos fijos {\displaystyle A}A y {\displaystyle B}B es una recta o eje de simetría de dichos dos puntos. Si los dos puntos son los dos extremos de un segmento {\displaystyle {\overline {AB}}}\overline {AB}, dicha recta, o lugar geométrico, es llamada mediatriz y es la recta que interseca perpendicularmente a {\displaystyle {\overline {AB}}}\overline {AB} en su punto medio.

La bisectriz cumple la propiedad de que todos sus puntos equidistan a los lados de dicho ángulo, convirtiéndose la bisectriz en un caso particular del lugar geométrico que sigue a continuación.

El caso de equidistancia a dos rectas paralelas, obtenemos que la paralela media es el lugar geométrico de los puntos que las equidistan. Se observa que, bajo el punto de vista de que las rectas paralelas se cortan en el infinito -se elimina, pues, la noción de paralelismo-, pasa a ser un sinónimo de la bisectriz, donde el ángulo ha tomado valor nulo.

Secciones cónicas

Las secciones cónicas pueden ser descritas mediante sus lugares de geométria:

La circunferencia es el lugar geométrico de los puntos cuya distancia a un punto determinado, el centro, es un valor dado (el radio).

La elipse es el lugar geométrico de los puntos tales que la suma de su distancia a dos puntos fijos, los focos, es una constante equivalente a la longitud del eje mayor de la elipse.

La parábola es el lugar geométrico de los puntos cuya distancia a un foco equivale a su distancia a una recta llamada directriz.

La hipérbola es el lugar geométrico de los puntos tales que el valor absoluto de la diferencia entre sus distancias a dos puntos fijos, los focos, es igual a una constante (positiva), que equivale a la distancia entre los vértices.

Determine the mass of a solid steel ball that has a diameter of 10 cm. The density of pure steel is 8.09 g/cm3
Basile [38]

Answer:

<em>The mass of the steel ball is 4,235.9 gr</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Density</u>

The density ρ of a substance is a measure of its mass per unit volume:

\displaystyle \rho=\frac{m}{V}

If the density and the volume are given, the mass can be calculated by solving the above formula for m:

m=\rho.V

We know the density of pure steel ρ=8.09 gr/cm3 and the diameter of a solid steel ball d=10 cm.

We need to calculate the volume of the sphere:

The volume of a sphere of radius r is given by:

\displaystyle V=\frac{4}{3}\cdot \pi\cdot r^3

The radius is half the diameter: r= 10/2 = 5 cm. Thus:

\displaystyle V=\frac{4}{3}\cdot \pi\cdot 5^3

Calculating:

V=523.6\ cm^3

The mass is:

m=8.09 gr/cm^3 \cdot 523.6\ cm^3

m=4,235.9 gr

The mass of the steel ball is 4,235.9 gr

Can someone please give me the answer I will mark u brilliant as soon as it pops up.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

  (a)  26 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The left-side vertical line extends from y = -3 to y = +3, so is 3-(-3) = 6 units long.

The bottom side horizontal line extends from x = -5 to x = 2, so is 2 -(-5) - 7 units long.

The sum of these two sides is 6 + 7 = 13 units. These two sides make up half of the perimeter, which is the total length of all four sides.

The perimeter is 2 × 13 units = 26 units.
