Make the fractions improper to multiply.2 1/5 becomes 11/5 and 1 3/4 becomes 7/4. multiply the numerators then multiply the denominators. you get 77/20, which is simplest form. don't let teachers feed you that bs about it having to be a mixed number. an improper fraction is way more useful.

Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2pi).
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by squaring both sides to get rid of the radical. Doing that gives you:

sin^2x=1-cosx

Now use the Pythagorean identity that says

sin^2x =1-cos^2x and make the replacement:

1-cos^2x=1-cosx. Now move everything over to one side of the equals sign and set it equal to 0 so you can factor:

1-cos^2x+cosx-1=0 and then simplify to

cosx-cos^2x=0

Factor out the common cos(x) to get

cosx(1-cosx)=0 and there you have your 2 trig equations:

cos(x) = 0 and 1 - cos(x) = 0

The first one is easy enough to solve. Look on the unit circle and see where, one time around, where the cos of an angle is equal to 0. That occurs at

x=\frac{\pi }{2},\frac{3\pi}{2}

The second equation simplifies to

cos(x) = 1

Again, look to the unit circle and find where the cos of an angle is equal to 1. That occurs at π only.

So, in the end, your 3 solutions are

x=\frac{\pi}{2},\pi,\frac{3\pi}{2}

How do you determine if polygons are similar?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

  a) corresponding angles of similar polygons are congruent

  b) corresponding sides of similar polygons are proportional

  c) a triangle is a polygon

Step-by-step explanation:

By <em>definition</em>, similar polygons have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.

A triangle is a polygon, so two triangles will be similar if they have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.

___

For an n-sided polygon, one only needs to show the conditions are met for n-1 angles and sides. Those will determine the measures of the final angle/side.

What binomial do you have to add to the polynomial:
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

a)  -2x^2+5xy

b)  -3y^2+5xy

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part (a)</u>

Given polynomial  :2x^2+3y^2-5xy+1

The binomial that should be added to the given polynomial to get a polynomial that does not contain the variable x is:

-2x^2+5xy

(2x^2+3y^2-5xy+1)+(-2x^2+5xy)

=2x^2+3y^2-5xy+1-2x^2+5xy

=2x^2-2x^2+3y^2-5xy+5xy+1

=3y^2+1

<u>Part (b)</u>

Given polynomial  :2x^2+3y^2-5xy+1

The binomial that should be added to the given polynomial to get a polynomial that does not contain the variable y is:

-3y^2+5xy

(2x^2+3y^2-5xy+1)+(-3y^2+5xy)

=2x^2+3y^2-5xy+1-3y^2+5xy

=2x^2+3y^2-3y^2-5xy+5xy+1

=2x^2+1
