Answer:
It is a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
Information needed:
Formula: a^2+b^2= c^2
a: leg
b: leg
c: hypotenuse
the longest side is always the hypotenuse, so 17 in
the order of legs don't matter so 8 in and 15 in
Solve:
a^2+b^2= c^2
8^2+15^2= 17^2
64+225= 289
289= 289
Final answer:
It is a right triangle
For any kite, we have two pairs of congruent adjacent sides. In general, the kite would have sides of x, x, y , y. In this case, x = 19 is known while y is unknown.
The four sides add up to 52, so
x+x+y+y = perimeter
19+19+y+y = 52
38+2y = 52
2y+38-38 = 52-38 .... subtract 38 from both sides
2y = 14
2y/2 = 14/2 ... divide both sides by 2
y = 7
Therefore the opposite side of the 19 meter side is 7 meters
<h3>Answer: B) 7 meters</h3>
Answer:
Choice D is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The eccentricity of the conic section is 1, implying we are looking at a parabola. Parabolas are the only conic sections with an eccentricity of 1.
Next, the directrix of this parabola is located at x = 4. This implies that the parabola opens towards the left and thus the denominator of its polar equation contains a positive cosine function.
Finally, the value of k in the numerator is simply the product of the eccentricity and the absolute value of the directrix;
k = 1*4 = 4
This polar equation is given by alternative D
