Q1)
the sequence should start with 10, after that each term is calculated by subtracting 3 from the previous term.
1st term - 10
2nd term - 10 - 3 = 7
3rd term  - 7 - 3 = 4
4th term - 4 - 3 = 1
5th term  - 1 - 3 = -2
6th term - -2 - 3 = -5
7th term - -5 - 3 = -8 
8th - -8 - 3 = -11
9th - -11 - 3  = -14
10th -14 - 3 = -17
the sequence is - 10,7,4,1,-2,-5,-8,-11,-14,-17

Q2) 
<span>the sequence whose nth term is the sum of the first n positive integers
In this we get the term by adding all the integers of the terms before that term 
1st term - n = 1 no terms before this , therefore 0 + n(1)  = 1
2nd term -n =2  sum of integers before - 1 + n( 2) = 3
3rd - 3+3 = 6
4th - 6+4 = 10 
5th - 10 + 5 = 15
6th - 15 + 6 = 21
7th  - 21 + 7 = 28
8th - 28 + 8 = 36
9th - 36 + 9 = 45
10th -  45 + 10 = 55
this is a triangular number pattern
this number pattern can be found out using ; n = (n x (n+1))/2

sequence is - 1,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,45,55

Q3)
</span>the sequence whose nth term is 3n − 2n
general term for this sequence is 3n − 2n
to find 1st term , n = 1
substituting n = 1 in the general term 
1st term - 3x1 - 2x1 = 3-2 = 1
2nd - 3x2- 2x2 = 6 - 4 = 2
3rd - 3x3 - 2x3 = 9-6 = 3
4th - 3x4 - 2x4 = 12 - 8 = 4
5th - 3x5 - 2x5 = 15 - 10 = 5
6th - 3x6 - 2x6 = 18 - 12 = 6
7th - 3x7 - 2x7 = 21 - 14 = 7
8th - 3 x8 - 2x8 = 24 - 16 = 8
9th - 3x9 - 2x9 = 27 - 18 = 9
10th - 3x10 - 2x10 = 30-20 = 10

sequence is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

Q4)
<span>the sequence whose nth term is √ n
when n=1 1st term is </span>√1 = 1
1st term - √1 = 1
2nd term - √2 = 1.41
3rd - √3 = 1.73
4th - √4 = 2
5th - √5 = 2.23
6th- √6 = 2.44
7th - √7 = 2.65
8th- √8 = 2.82
9th - √9 = 3
10th - √10 = 3.16

The sequence is 1, 1.41, 1.73, 2, 2.23, 2.44, 2.65, 2.82, 3, 3.16

Q5)T<span>he sequence whose first two terms are 1 and 5 and each succeeding term is the sum of the two previous terms
</span>1st term - 1
2nd term - 5
3rd term - add 1st and 2nd term (1+5) = 6
4th term - add 2nd and 3rd terms (5+6) = 11
5th - add 3rd and 4th (6+11) = 17
6th - (11+17) = 28
7th - (17 + 28) = 45
8th - 45 + 28 = 73
9th - 73 + 45 = 118
10th - 73+ 118 = 191

sequence is - 1,5,6,11,17,28,45,73,118,191

A. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(1) = 10
a(2) = a(1) - 3  
a(3) = a(2) - 3
a(n) = a(n-1) -3

Now we find first ten terms:
10, 7, 4 ,1, -2, -5, -8, -11, -14, -17

b. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(1) = 1
a(2) = 1 + 2
a(3) = 1 + 2 + 3
a(n) = 1 + 2 + ... + n

Now we find first ten terms:
1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, 55

c. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(n) = 3n -2n = n

Now we find first ten terms:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

d. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(n)= \sqrt{n}

Now we find first ten terms:
1,  \sqrt{2},\sqrt{3}, 2,\sqrt{5},\sqrt{6},\sqrt{7},\sqrt{8},3,\sqrt{10}

e. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(1) = 1
a(2) = 5
a(3) = a(1) + a(2)
a(4) = a(2) + a(3)
a(n) = a(n-2) + a(n-1)

Now we find first ten terms:
1, 5, 6, 11, 17, 28, 45, 73, 118, 191

Please help me solveeeee
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the only way you can solve this is to assume that <R means PRT in the given ratio. If I am wrong, I don't think the problem can be solved.

Find <T

Let <T = x

and <PRT = 3x

KLMN is a Parallelagram and therefore two adjacent angles are supplementary.

<PRT + <T = 180 degress

3x + x = 180 degrees

4x = 180

x = 45

So <T = 45

<PRT = 3*45 = 135

If RD is perpendicular to PS then <PDR = 90o

Here's the trick.

RD is also Perpendicular to RT

<MRD + <MRT = 90

<MRT = 180 - 90 - <T

<MRT = 180 - 90 - 45

<MRT = 45

Here comes your answer

=================

<MRD + MRT = 90

<MRD + 45 = 90

<MRD = 45

====================

Note: you must ignore everything to do with the diagram. It is not drawn to scale and the letters are not the same as in the question. The only thing you use is that the figure is a ||gm
