A triangular flag has an area of 187.5 square inches. The base of the flag measures 25 inch How tall is the triangular flag?

1 answer:

6 0

To find the height, you would do the area divided by the base, or in this case,187.5 / 25 which equals 7.5 inches. Hope this helped!

A wheel turns through 90 revolutions per minute how many degrees does it turn through in 1 second

suter [353]

Answer:

540°

Step-by-step explanation:

90 revolutions = 360°×90 = 32400°

32400° in 60 sec or 1 min

so, in 1 sec 32400/60 = 540°

An area is approximated to be 14 in 2 using a left-endpoint rectangle approximation method. A right- endpoint approximation of t

USPshnik [31]

The trapezoidal approximation will be the average of the left- and right-endpoint approximations.

Let's consider a simple example of estimating the value of a general definite integral,

$\displaystyle\int_a^bf(x)\,\mathrm dx$

Split up the interval $[a,b]$ into $n$ equal subintervals,

$[x_0,x_1]\cup[x_1,x_2]\cup\cdots\cup[x_{n-2},x_{n-1}]\cup[x_{n-1},x_n]$

where $a=x_0$ and $b=x_n$ . Each subinterval has measure (width) $\dfrac{a-b}n$ .

Now denote the left- and right-endpoint approximations by $L$ and $R$ , respectively. The left-endpoint approximation consists of rectangles whose heights are determined by the left-endpoints of each subinterval. These are $\{x_0,x_1,\cdots,x_{n-1}\}$ . Meanwhile, the right-endpoint approximation involves rectangles with heights determined by the right endpoints, $\{x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_n\}$ .

So, you have

$L=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(f(x_0)+f(x_1)+\cdots+f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1})\right)$
$R=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(f(x_1)+f(x_2)+\cdots+f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)\right)$

Now let $T$ denote the trapezoidal approximation. The area of each trapezoidal subdivision is given by the product of each subinterval's width and the average of the heights given by the endpoints of each subinterval. That is,

$T=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(\dfrac{f(x_0)+f(x_1)}2+\dfrac{f(x_1)+f(x_2)}2+\cdots+\dfrac{f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1})}2+\dfrac{f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)}2\right)$

Factoring out $\dfrac12$ and regrouping the terms, you have

$T=\dfrac{b-a}{2n}\left((f(x_0)+f(x_1)+\cdots+f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1}))+(f(x_1)+f(x_2)+\cdots+f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n))\right)$

which is equivalent to

$T=\dfrac12\left(L+R)$

and is the average of $L$ and $R$ .

So the trapezoidal approximation for your problem should be $\dfrac{14+21}2=\dfrac{35}2=17.5\text{ in}^2$
