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

Find the obtuse angle the line y-2x=7 makes with the x- axis
Kazeer [188]
In analytical geometry, there are already derived equations to find the distance of lines and points as well as the angle made between two lines. As special case is when the other line is one of the coordinate axis. Then, the formula can be simplified to

tan θ =m, where m is the slope of the equation

In the next step, we also incorporate operations of calculus. Since the slope is equal to Δy/Δx, this is equivalent to dy/dx in calculus. Therefore, you can find the slope by differentiating the equation in terms of x.

<span>y-2x=7
y = 2x+7
dy/dx = 2 =m

So,

tan </span>θ = 2
θ = tan⁻¹(2)
θ = 63.43°

6. A two-story building measures 21 feet
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

First figure the ratio of the real building to the model which is 21 divide 3. So the ratio is 1:7, since we're finding the height of the model, we divide 7 by 84 which is 12
