1 answer:

8 0

The standard form of ellipse with vertical major axis and center at the origin is:
x^2/b^2+y^2/a^2=1, a>b
2a=length of the major axis=28
a=14
a^2=196

2b=length of minor axis=20
b=10
b^2=100

x^2/196+y^2/100=1

making y the subject we get

y=5/7(196-x²)^0.5

Tamika ran 120 meters in 21.6 seconds. Enrique ran 120 meters in 22.4

Alexus [3.1K]

Tamika ran the fastest time at 21.6 seconds in 120 meters because the faster you run the less time you have on your timer.

Find the area of the parallelogram.

vodka [1.7K]

The height of the parallelogram is 8 because using the pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2
6^2+x^2=10^2
36+x^2=100
100-36=64
square root of 64=8
area of parallelogram:
a=bh
a=8*14
a=112 units ^2
hope this helps!
