How does tripling the side lengths of a right triangle affects its area?

Let $x,y$ be the lengths of the original legs. The original area is thus

$\dfrac{xy}{2}$

Now, we triple the legs, so we have $(x,y)\mapsto(3x,3y)$

The new area is

$\dfrac{(3x)(3y)}{2} = \dfrac{9xy}{2} = 9\dfrac{xy}{2}$

which is 9 times the original area.

So, if you triple both legs, the area will be nine times as much as the original one.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 5 = 4x + 16 ( being alternate angles)

5x - 4x = 16 - 5

x = 11

Hope it will help :)

The accompanying data on x = current density (mA/cm2) and y = rate of deposition (m/min)μ appeared in a recent study.

Answer:

a) $r=\frac{4(333)-(200)(5.37)}{\sqrt{[4(12000) -(200)^2][4(9.3501) -(5.37)^2]}}=0.9857$

The correlation coefficient for this case is very near to 1 so then we can ensure that we have linear correlation between the two variables

b) $m=\frac{64.5}{2000}=0.03225$

Now we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{200}{4}=50$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{5.37}{4}=1.3425$

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=1.3425-(0.03225*50)=-0.27$

So the line would be given by:

$y=0.3225 x -0.27$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

The correlation coeffcient is given by this formula:

$r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}$

For our case we have this:

n=4 $\sum x = 200, \sum y = 5.37, \sum xy = 333, \sum x^2 =12000, \sum y^2 =9.3501$

$r=\frac{4(333)-(200)(5.37)}{\sqrt{[4(12000) -(200)^2][4(9.3501) -(5.37)^2]}}=0.9857$

The correlation coefficient for this case is very near to 1 so then we can ensure that we have linear correlation between the two variables

Part b

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=12000-\frac{200^2}{4}=2000$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=333-\frac{200*5.37}{4}=64.5$

And the slope would be:

$m=\frac{64.5}{2000}=0.03225$

Now we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{200}{4}=50$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{5.37}{4}=1.3425$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=1.3425-(0.03225*50)=-0.27$

So the line would be given by:

$y=0.3225 x -0.27$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

14. You would add 41 + 41 + 61 + 61 because you just need to add together all the sides.

15. you need to measure the all the sides for 15 and do the same thing that you did on 14
