Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
4/8=1/2, so:
x+1/2=1/2
x=0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
These come directly from my textbook, so I'm not sure if your teacher will accept this kind of work.
1. Angle construction:
Given an angle. construct an angle congruent to the given angle.
Given: Angle ABC
Construct: An angle congruent to angle ABC
Procedure:
1. Draw a ray. Label it ray RY.
2. Using B as center and any radius, draw an arc that intersects ray BA and ray BC. Label the points of intersection D and E, respectively.
3. Using R as center and the same radius as in Step 2, draw an arc intersecting ray RY. Label the arc XS, with S being the point where the arc intersects ray RY.
4. Using S as center and a radius equal to DE, draw an arc that intersects arc XS at a point Q.
5. Draw ray RQ.
Justification (for congruence): If you draw line segment DE and line segment QS, triangle DBE is congruent to triangle QRS (SSS postulate) Then angle QRS is congruent to angle ABC.
You can probably also Google videos if it's hard to imagine this. Sorry, construction is super hard to describe.
1) Road Trip: Let’s say two friends are meeting at a playground. Mary is already at the park but her friend Bob needs to get there taking the shortest path possible. Bob has two way he can go - he can follow the roads getting to the park - first heading south 3 miles, then heading west four miles. The total distance covered following the roads will be 7 miles. The other way he can get there is by cutting through some open fields and walk directly to the park. If we apply Pythagoras's theorem to calculate the distance you will get:
(3)<span>2 </span>+ (4)2 =
9 + 16 = C2
√25 = C
5 Miles. = C
Walking through the field will be 2 miles shorter than walking along the roads. .
2) Painting on a Wall: Painters use ladders to paint on high buildings and often use the help of Pythagoras' theorem to complete their work. The painter needs to determine how tall a ladder needs to be in order to safely place the base away from the wall so it won't tip over. In this case the ladder itself will be the hypotenuse. Take for example a painter who has to paint a wall which is about 3 m high. The painter has to put the base of the ladder 2 m away from the wall to ensure it won't tip. What will be the length of the ladder required by the painter to complete his work? You can calculate it using Pythagoras' theorem:
(5)<span>2 </span>+ (2)2 =
25 + 4 = C2
√100 = C
5.3 m. = C
Thus, the painter will need a ladder about 5 meters high.
3) Buying a Suitcase: Mr. Harry wants to purchase a suitcase. The shopkeeper tells Mr. Harry that he has a 30 inch of suitcase available at present and the height of the suitcase is 18 inches. Calculate the actual length of the suitcase for Mr. Harry using Pythagoras' theorem. It is calculated this way:
(18)<span>2 </span>+ (b)2 = (30)2
324 + b2 = 900
B2 = 900 – 324
b= √576
= 24 inches
Answer:
Rewrite the function in vertex form,y = (a - h)² + k, and identify the coordinates of the vertex and equation of axis of symmetry.Show Work y = -3x² - 24x - 50
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is A. A perpendicular equation will have the opposite and reciprocal slope as the original equation.
Once converted to the slope-intercept form of y = mx+b, we find the two equations for A are y = 2x-1 and y = (-1/2)x + 3/2. The opposite reciprocal of the first equation's slope (m in the equation form given) is -1/2, which as you can see if the slope of the other equation.
