A trapezoid has symmetry with respect to the median of the trapezoid. True or False

Mathematics

frozen [14]3 years ago

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid is one special type of quadrilateral.

The speciality is one pair of opposite sides would be parallel.

The trapezium may or may not have the non parallel sides equal.  If they are equal it is called isosceles trapezium

Here when we consider a trapezium, the median is the line joining the mid points of the non parallel sides.

Since trapezium is narrow on one side of the median and wider on the other side of the median, this cannot divide the trapezium into two symmetrical shapes.

Hence A trapezoid cannot have symmetry with respect to the median of the trapezoid.

Find the inverse of f (x) = x + 2 + 9
Brut [27]

Answer:

y = x - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

First, turn the f(x) into a y:

y = x + 2 + 9

Now, switch the x and y.

x = y + 2 + 9

Add like terms.

2  + 9 = 11

x = y + 11

Now, solve for y. Subtract 11 on both sides.

y = x - 11

Wilhelmina wrote a check for $72 to pay her monthly Internet bill, but when
lesantik [10]

Answer:

her bank statement will show that she has $144 less than her checkbook balance

Step-by-step explanation:

let the amount of money in the bank before writing the check be x

after writing the check for $72, because she accidentally recorded this as a credit, here checkbook will reflect a balance of :$(x + 72)

However, the bank correctly records the debit of the $72, resulting  a balance of: $(x-72)

Hence compared to her checkbook,  the bank records will show an amount difference of :

(x-72) - (x + 72)

= x - 72 -x -72

= -144

i.e her bank statement will show that she has $144 less than her checkbook balance

Can you write a real world problem that uses Pythagorean theorem ?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

1) Road Trip: Let’s say two friends are meeting at a playground. Mary is already at the park but her friend Bob needs to get there taking the shortest path possible. Bob has two way he can go - he can follow the roads getting to the park - first heading south 3 miles, then heading west four miles. The total distance covered following the roads will be 7 miles. The other way he can get there is by cutting through some open fields and walk directly to the park. If we apply Pythagoras's theorem to calculate the distance you will get:

(3)<span>2 </span>+ (4)2 =

9 + 16 = C2

√25 = C

5 Miles. = C

Walking through the field will be 2 miles shorter than walking along the roads. .

2) Painting on a Wall: Painters use ladders to paint on high buildings and often use the help of Pythagoras' theorem to complete their work. The painter needs to determine how tall a ladder needs to be in order to safely place the base away from the wall so it won't tip over. In this case the ladder itself will be the hypotenuse. Take for example a painter who has to paint a wall which is about 3 m high. The painter has to put the base of the ladder 2 m away from the wall to ensure it won't tip. What will be the length of the ladder required by the painter to complete his work? You can calculate it using Pythagoras' theorem:

(5)<span>2 </span>+ (2)2 =

25 + 4 = C2

√100 = C

5.3 m. = C

Thus, the painter will need a ladder about 5 meters high.

3) Buying a Suitcase: Mr. Harry wants to purchase a suitcase. The shopkeeper tells Mr. Harry that he has a 30 inch of suitcase available at present and the height of the suitcase is 18 inches. Calculate the actual length of the suitcase for Mr. Harry using Pythagoras' theorem. It is calculated this way:

(18)<span>2 </span>+ (b)2 = (30)2

324 + b2 = 900

B2 = 900 – 324

b= √576

= 24 inches

The average estimated hours a person in the United States spent playing video games per year from 2002 to 2012 were 71, 80, 82,
ozzi

Answer:

Population variance 579

Population standard deviation 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The average estimated hours a person in the United States spent playing video games per year from 2002 to 2012 were 71, 80, 82, 78, 80, 91, 107, 121, 125, 131, and 142.

The population variance is given by:

\sigma^2=\frac{\sum(x-\mu)^2}{n}

\mu=\frac{71+80+82+78+80+91+107+121+125+131+142}{11}

\mu=\frac{1108}{11}

This implies that:

\sigma^2=\frac{(71-\frac{1108}{11})^2+(80-\frac{1108}{11})^2+(82-\frac{1108}{11})^2+(78-\frac{1108}{11})^2+(80-\frac{1108}{11})^2+...+(142-\frac{1108}{11})^2}{11}

\sigma^2=\frac{70006}{121} =579 to the nearest whole number

The population standard deviation is

\sigma=\frac{\sqrt{70006} }{11}=24 to the nearest whole number.
