Answer:

In brief, apply the pythagorean theorem to show that the distance between the point (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and the origin is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorem can give the distance between two points on a plane if their coordinates are known.

A point is on a circle if its distance from the center of the circle is the same as the radius of the circle.

On a cartesian plane, the unit circle is a circle  

  • centered at the origin (0,0)
  • with radius 1.

Therefore, to show that the point (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) is on the unit circle, show that the distance between (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and (0,0) equals to 1.

What's the distance between (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and (0,0)?

\displaystyle \sqrt{\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-0}\right)^{2} + \left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-0\right)^{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}}= \sqrt{1}= 1.

By the pythagorean theorem, the distance between (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and the center of the unit circle, (0,0), is the same as the radius of the unit circle, 1. As a result, the point (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) is on the unit circle.

A transformation T : (x, y) → (x + 3, y + 1). Find the preimage of the point (4, 3) under the given transformation. (7, 4) (1, 2
motikmotik

Answer:

(1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the final shape and position of a figure after a transformation is called the image, and the original shape and position of the figure is the pre-image.

In our case, our figure is just a point. We know that after the transformation T : (x, y) → (x + 3, y + 1), our image has coordinates (4, 3).

The transformation rule T : (x, y) → (x + 3, y + 1) means that we add 3 to the x-coordinate and add 1 to the y-coordinate of our pre-image. Now to find the pre-image of our point, we just need to reverse those operations; in other words, we will subtract 3 from the x-coordinate and subtract 1 from the y-coordinate.

So, our rule to find the pre-image of the point (4, 3) is:

T : (x, y) → (x - 3, y - 1)

We know that the x-coordinate of our image is 4 and its y-coordinate is 3.

Replacing values:

                (4 - 3, 3 - 1)

                (1, 2)

We can conclude that our pre-image is the point (1, 2).

2. Calculate the energy in joules of a photon whose frequency is 7.55×1014 Hz.
igomit [66]
The energy of a photon is given by
E = h × v

where:
E is the energy in joules/photon
'h' is the constant 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴
'v' is the frequency 7.55 × 10¹⁴

Substitute 'h' and 'v' into the formula we have

E = (6.63×10⁻³⁴) × (7.55×10¹⁴)
E = (6.63×7.55) × (10⁻³⁴ × 10¹⁴)
E = 50.0565 × 10⁽⁻³⁴⁺¹⁴⁾
E = 50 × 10⁻²⁰ joules/photon
