What are the coordinates of the circumcenter of a triangle with vertices A(0,1) B(2,1) and C(2,5)?

THis is a cool question.
1) Use the point slope form to find the equation of the lines between two of the points (choose two points that when a line is drawn between them make a chord on the circle).
2) Use the midpoint of a line equation to find the midpoint of the line, then find the slope of the line that is perpendicular at that point and write an equation for it.
3) Then do the same thing for the other two points that form a chord on the circle.
4) Then set the two equations equal to each other and solve. The point where they meet is the circumcenter.

A line segment has (x1, y1) as one endpoint and (xm, ym) as its midpoint. Find the other endpoint (x2, y2) of the line segment i

Tasya [4]

Answer:

(3,7) for the first line, and (12,0) for the second one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi Isabella,

1) The Midpoint of a line, when it comes to Analytical Geometry, is calculated as Mean of two points it follows:

$x_{m}=\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} } {2}, y_{m} =\frac{y_{1}+ y_{2} }{2}$

2) Each segment has two endpoints, and their midpoints, namely:

a) (1,-9) and its midpoint (2,-1)

b) (-2,18) and its midpoint (5,9)

3) Calculating. You need to be careful to not sum the wrong coordinates.

So be attentive!

The first line a

$2=\frac{1+x_{2} }{2}\\ 4=1+x_{2}\\ 4-1=-1+1+x_{2} \\ x_{2}=3\\-1=\frac{y_{2}-9}{2}\\-2=y_{2}-9\\+2-2=y_{2}-9+2\\ y_{2}=-7$

So (3,7) is the other endpoint whose segment starts at (1,-9)

The second line b endpoint at (-2,18) and its midpoint (5,9)

$5=\frac{-2+x_{2} }{2} \\ 10=-2+x_{2} \\ +2+10=+2-2+x_{2}\\ x_{2}=12 \\ \\ 9=\frac{18+y_{2} }{2} \\ 18=18+y_{2} \\ -18+18=-18+18+y_{2}\\ y_{2} =0$

So (12,0) it is the other endpoint.

What is the peremeter of this tile 3in 3in 3in 3in I ready

Leokris [45]

Answer:

12 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is calculated by adding all up the sides of a shape. In this case, the shape is a square, considering that all the sides are the same measurements. 3+3+3+3 can be simplified to 3x4. This gives you 12 in. as the perimeter.

Why 10^33/2=5*10^32? Explain, pls. :(

german

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

10^33/2

Rewriting the numerator as 10 * 10 ^ 32

10 * 10 ^32

--------------------

10/2 = 5

5 * 10 ^32

Therefore

10^33/2=5*10^32
