Answer:

Take b = \frac{-17}{25}(7,1) as the projection of u onto v and w \frac{1}{25}(-31,217) as the vector such that b+w =u

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of projection  of a vector u onto a vector v is given by

\frac{u\cdot v}{v\cdot v}v, where cdot is the dot product between vectors.

First, let b ve the projection of u onto v. Then

b = \frac{u\cdot v}{v\cdot v}v= \frac{-6\cdot 7+8\cdot 1}{7\cdot 7+1\cdot 1}(7,1) = \frac{-34}{50}(7,1) = \frac{-17}{25}(7,1)

We want a vector w, that is orthogonal to b and that b+w = u. From this equation we have that w = u-b = (-6,8)-\frac{-17}{25}(7,1)= \frac{1}{25}(-31,217)[/tex]

By construction, we have that w+b=u. We need to check that they are orthogonal. To do so, the dot product between w and b must be zero. Recall that if we have vectors a,b  that are orthogonal then for every non-zero escalar r,k the vector ra and kb are also orthogonal. Then, we can check if w and b are orthogonal by checking if the vectors (7,1) and (-31, 217) are orthogonal.

We have that (7,1)\cdot(-31,217) = 7\cdot -31 + 217 \cdot 1 = -217+217 =0. Then this vectors are orthogonal, and thus, w and b are orthogonal.

Find the perimeter of rectangle ABCD. That’s the full photo. Only half of the rectangle is provided. You should be able to solve
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

170°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can already see that measure ∠AD is equal to 85

A square has two halves, so this square will be added.

We will have to add 85 + 85 which equals 170°

A rectangular garden has an area of 108 square meters.If it’s length la is 18 m, what is the width?
monitta

Answer: 6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is the length times the width.

We can set up an equation.

108 m^2 = 18 m * width

Width = 6 m
