Hello,

y=k*x ; if x=1.2,y=12
==>12=k*1.2==>k=12/1.2==>k=10

Answer:

constant of variation is 10.

Second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that y varies directly as x. Thus, we have

y = kx.............(1)

k is the constant of variation

Now, it has been given that when y is 12 then x is 1.2.

Hence, substituting x = 1.2 and y = 12 in equation (1)

12 = 1.2 k

Divide both sides by 1.2

k = 12/1.2

k = 10

Therefore, constant of variation is 10.

Second option is correct.

Answer:

Given: ​ BD ​is an altitude of △ABC .

Prove: sinA/a=sinC/c

Triangle ABC with an altitude BD where D is on side AC. Side AC is also labeled as small b. Side AB is also labeled as small c. Side BC is also labeled as small a. Altitude BD is labeled as small h.

Statement Reason

​ BD is an altitude of △ABC .

Given △ABD ​ and ​ △CBD ​ are right triangles. (Definition of right triangle)

sinA=h/c and sinC=h/a

Cross multiplying, we have

csinA=h and asinC=h

(If a=b and a=c, then b=c)

csinA=asinC

csinA/ac=asinC/ac (Division Property of Equality)

sinA/a=sinC/c

This rule is known as the Sine Rule.

Find the coordinates of the points that are 5 units away from the origin and have an x-coordinate equal to 4.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(4, 3 ) and (4, - 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

A distance of 5 units from the origin represents the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 3- 4 - 5

If the x-coordinate is 4 then the y-coordinate is | 3 | = ± 3

the coordinates are (4, 3 ) and (4, - 3 )
