A) what is the slope of the parallel to y=2x+3

Mathematics

1 answer:

tekilochka [14]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

a) 2 b) -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) im pretty sure the question only asks for the slope of the parallel line y=2x+3, that that would be 2 because they have the same slope

b) the question is phrased weird, but im assuming it wants the same thing from a, (the slope) and the slope of a perpendicular like is always the opposite reciprocal of the original number

for example in y=2x+3:

2 is the original slope

meaning that the perpendicular would be -1/2

An arc on a circle measures 85°. The measure of the central angle, in radians, is within which range? 0 to StartFraction pi Over

barxatty [35]

Answer:

0 to StartFraction pi Over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the arc on a circle measures 85 degrees, then the measure of the central angle is also 85 degrees too

The central angle in degrees is within the range $(0,90^o)$

Convert to radians

Remember that

$\frac{\pi}{2}\ radians=90^o$

therefore

the range in radians is $(0,\frac{\pi}{2})$

0 to StartFraction pi Over 2

The sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is 1800 degrees. How many sides does is have? *

Rudik [331]

Answer:

12 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of sides of a regular polygon with the sum of interior angles of 1800 degrees, we will follow the steps below;

first write down the formula for finding sum of the interior angle of a polygon

s= (n-2)180

where s is the sum of the interior angle and n is the number of side

from the question given, sum of the interior angle s=1800 degrees

substitute s=1800 degree into the formula and solve for n

s= (n-2)180

1800 = (n-2)180

divide both-side of the equation by 180

1800/180 = n-2

10 = n - 2

add 2 to both-side of the equation

10 + 2 = n

12 = n

n= 12

The polygon have 12 sides

Determine whether the triangles are similar. If so, name the postulate or theorem you used.

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Yes, AA~

Step-by-step explanation:

because 2 of the angles are the same (90 and 52) they have to be the same. The triangle on the right is known to be 90 degrees because 52+38 is 90 and 180-90 is 90 and a triangle has to add up to 180 degrees

Is sin theta=5/6, what are the values of cos theta and tan theta?

mina [271]

let's bear in mind that sin(θ) in this case is positive, that happens only in the I and II Quadrants, where the cosine/adjacent are positive and negative respectively.

$\bf sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}}\qquad \impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{adjacent side}} \\\\\\ \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{6^2-5^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{36-25}\implies \pm \sqrt{11}=a \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm\sqrt{11}}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}} \\\\\\ tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm\sqrt{11}}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{and rationalizing the denominator}~\hfill }{tan(\theta )=\pm\cfrac{5}{\sqrt{11}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{11}}\implies tan(\theta )=\pm\cfrac{5\sqrt{11}}{11}}$

If a card is picked at random from a standard 52-card deck, what is the probability of getting a spade or a 8

g100num [7]

Answer:

1/4, 25%, or 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore, as each suit contains 13 cards, and the deck is split up into 4 suits, that leaves us with a 13/52 chance to pick a spade.

That fraction is equivalent to 1/4, so that leaves us with a probability of picking a spade at:

1/4, 25%, or 0.25
