Find the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of the parallelogram with the vertices W(−2, 5), X(2, 5), Y(4, 0),

emmasim [6.3K]

Using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of the parallelogram is: (1, 2.5).

<h3>What are Diagonals of a Parallelogram?</h3>

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, therefore, the coordinates of their intersection can be determined using the midpoint formula, which is: $M(\frac{x_2 + x_1}{2}, \frac{y_2 + y_1}{2})$ .

A diagonal is XZ.

X(2, 5) = (x1, y1)

Z(0, 0) = (x2, y2)

Plug in the values

$M(\frac{0 + 2}{2}, \frac{0 + 5}{2})$

= (1, 2.5).

Find the equation of the sphere if one of its diameters has endpoints (4, 2, -9) and (6, 6, -3) which has been normalized so tha

Pavel [41]

Answer:

$(x - 5)^2 + (y - 4)^2 + (z - 6)^2 = 14$ .

(Expand to obtain an equivalent expression for the sphere: $x^2 - 10\,x + y^2 - 8\, y + z^2 - 12\, z + 63 = 0$ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between these two endpoints:

$\begin{aligned}&\text{Distance}\cr &= \sqrt{\left(x_2 - x_1\right)^2 + \left(y_2 - y_1\right)^2 + \left(z_2 - z_1\right)^2} \cr &= \sqrt{(6 - 4)^2 + (6 - 2)^2 + ((-3) - (-9))^2 \cr &= \sqrt{56}}\end{aligned}$ .

Since the two endpoints form a diameter of the sphere, the distance between them would be equal to the diameter of the sphere. The radius of a sphere is one-half of its diameter. In this case, that would be equal to:

$\begin{aligned} r &= \frac{1}{2} \, \sqrt{56} \cr &= \sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 \times 56} \cr &= \sqrt{\frac{1}{4} \times 56} \cr &= \sqrt{14} \end{aligned}$ .

In a sphere, the midpoint of every diameter would be the center of the sphere. Each component of the midpoint of a segment (such as the diameter in this question) is equal to the arithmetic mean of that component of the two endpoints. In other words, the midpoint of a segment between $\left(x_1, \, y_1, \, z_1\right)$ and $\left(x_2, \, y_2, \, z_2\right)$ would be:

$\displaystyle \left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}, \, \frac{z_1 + z_2}{2}\right)$ .

In this case, the midpoint of the diameter, which is the same as the center of the sphere, would be at:

$\begin{aligned}&\left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}, \, \frac{z_1 + z_2}{2}\right) \cr &= \left(\frac{4 + 6}{2},\, \frac{2 + 6}{2}, \, \frac{(-9) + (-3)}{2}\right) \cr &= (5,\, 4\, -6)\end{aligned}$ .

The equation for a sphere of radius $r$ and center $\left(x_0,\, y_0,\, z_0\right)$ would be:

$\left(x - x_0\right)^2 + \left(y - y_0\right)^2 + \left(z - z_0\right)^2 = r^2$ .

In this case, the equation would be:

$\left(x - 5\right)^2 + \left(y - 4\right)^2 + \left(z - (-6)\right)^2 = \left(\sqrt{56}\right)^2$ .

Simplify to obtain:

$\left(x - 5\right)^2 + \left(y - 4\right)^2 + \left(z + 6\right)^2 = 56$ .

Expand the squares and simplify to obtain:

$x^2 - 10\,x + y^2 - 8\, y + z^2 - 12\, z + 63 = 0$ .

2x + y = 7<br> -2x - y = 6<br> Solve systems of equations by substitution

ehidna [41]

Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 7

-2x - y = 6

From the first equation:

y = 7 - 2x

Plug this into the second equation:

-2x - (7 - 2x) = 6

-2x + 2x = 6 + 7

0 = 13

this doesn't make sense so theer is:

No solution.

The petronas towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, are 452 meters tall. A woman who is 1.75 meters tall stands 120 meters from the b

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$75.1^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we have:

H = 452 m is the height of the Petronas tower

h = 1.75 m is the height of the woman

d = 120 m is the distance between the woman and the base of the tower

First of all, we notice that we want to find the angle of elevation between the woman's hat the top of the tower; this means that we have consider the difference between the height of the tower and the height of the woman, so

$H' = H-h = 452-1.75=450.25 m$

Now we notice that $d$ and $H'$ are the two sides of a right triangle, in which the angle of elevation is $\theta$ . Therefore, we can write the following relationship:

$tan \theta = \frac{H'}{d}$

since

H' represents the side of the triangle opposite to $\theta$

d represents the side of the triangle adjacent to $\theta$

Solving the equation for $\theta$ , we find the angle of elevation:

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{H'}{d})=tan^{-1}(\frac{450.25}{120})=75.1^{\circ}$
