Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
They are exact and you can't mess up or accidentally slide the compass or straightedge around. This is just my opinion though.
Answer:
Solutions are 2, -1 + 0.5 sqrt10 i and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i
or 2, -1 + 1.58 i and -1 - 1.58i
(where the last 2 are equal to nearest hundredth).
Step-by-step explanation:
The real solution is x = 2:-
x^3 - 8 = 0
x^3 = 8
x = cube root of 8 = 2
Note that a cubic equation must have a total of 3 roots ( real and complex in this case). We can find the 2 complex roots by using the following identity:-
a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab + b^2).
Here a = x and b = 2 so we have
(x - 2)(x^2 + 2x + 4) = 0
To find the complex roots we solve x^2 + 2x + 4 = 0:-
Using the quadratic formula x = [-2 +/- sqrt(2^2 - 4*1*4)] / 2
= -1 +/- (sqrt( -10)) / 2
= -1 + 0.5 sqrt10 i and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i
256. Since each side is congruent, the length equals 8. 8 times 8 equals 64. Divide it by 2 to find the area of the triangle. 64 divided by 2 equals 32. Since there are 8 congruent triangles, 32 x 8 equals 256.
Answer:
The height of the building is 
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
In the right triangle ABC

we have

substitute and solve for BC


Find the height of the building
The height of the building (h) is equal to

X-intercept: (-5,0)
Y-intercept: (0,4)
To solve for the X-Intercept, substitute 0 for y and solve for x.
To solve for the Y-Intercept, substitute 0 for x and solve for y.
