MrRa [10]

tan 52 = 180/a; a = 180/tan 52

tan 43 = 180/b; b = 180/tan 43

you need to calculate, a-b = 180/tan 52 - 180/tan 43

HELLO...!!

Diagonal = ?
Wide = 20 in.
High = 15 in.

Pythagoras formula: D² = H² + W²

$D^2=(15)^2+(20)^2\\ \\D^2=225+400\\ \\D^2=625\\ \\D= \sqrt{625}\\ \\D=25\ in.\quad\Longrightarrow\boxed{\boxed{\mathbb{ANSWER\ \checkmark}}}\\ \\ \\\textbf{HOPE\ THIS\ HELPS...!!}$

4. The reflecting dish of a parabolic microphone has a cross-section in the shape of a parabola. The microphone itself is placed

elixir [45]

Assume the parabola is placed on a graph where the x-axis is the top of the dish.
The vertex is then at (0,-30) The x-intercepts or zeros are at (-30,0) and (30,0)

The equation of such parabola would be:
$y = a(x+30)(x-30)$
Plug in vertex to find value of 'a'
$-30 = a(0+30)(0-30) \\ \\ a = \frac{-30}{(-30)(30)} = \frac{1}{30}$

Now find the focus given that $p = \frac{1}{4a}$
$p = \frac{1}{4(1/30)} = \frac{30}{4} = 7.5$

Answer: the microphone should be placed 7.5 inches from vertex.

Sheila had one gallon of milk. She used gallon of milk to make ice cream. She used another gallon of milk to make cookie dough.

never [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1) Sheila had 1 gallon of milk

2) she used 1/4 of a gallon of milk ------> 1-1/4-----> 3/4 gallon left

3) she used 1/6 of a gallon of milk------> 3/4-1/6---> (6*3-4*1)/24---> 14/24

14/24-----> 7/12 gallon
