Construct a rectangle whose one side is 3 cm and a diagonal equal to 5 cm.​

Mathematics

VMariaS [17]4 years ago

Answer:

Length = 4 cm

Breadth = 3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Its Simple, We use The Pythagoreas theorem,

We know that the Hypotenuse of a triangle squared is equal to the sum of the legs square,

So  A^2 + B^2 = C^2

substitute the values,

    3^2 + B^2 = 5^2

     9 + B^2 = 25.

Subtract 9 from both sides

    B^2 = 25 - 9

    B^2 = 16

     B = sqrt[16] = 4

I am assuming that you are not asking for an actual construction of a rectangle on paper, but if you are, just ask

A couple of newlyweds decides to s their house with a brand new white picket fence. They purchase 120 feet of fencing materials.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

option (A) 900 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be L and width of the area be 'B'

now,

Perimeter of the fence = 2 (L + B)

also,

2 (L + B) = 120 feet

or

L + B = 60 ft

or

L = 60 - B ft

Now,

The area of the fencing ground, A = LB

or

A = (60 - B)B

A = 60B - B²

now,

differentiating the area with respect to width B, we get

\frac{dA}{dB}= \frac{d(60B - B^2)}{dB}

or

\frac{dA}{dB} = 60 - 2B

for point of maxima or minima, put \frac{dA}{dB} = 0

thus,

60 - 2B = 0

or

2B = 60

or

B = 30 ft

to check for maxima or minima

\frac{d^2A}{dB^2} = - 2

since,

\frac{d^2A}{dB^2} is negative, B = 30 ft is point of maxima

therefore,

L = 60 - B = 60 - 30 = 30 ft

Thus,

Maximum area of the fencing ground = 30 × 30 = 900 ft²

Hence,

The correct answer is option (A) 900 ft²

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Historically, surnames evolved as a way to sort people into groups - by occupation, place of origin, clan affiliation, patronage, parentage, adoption, and even physical characteristics (like red hair). Many of the modern surnames in the dictionary can be traced back to Britain and Ireland.

Similar surnames: Leverenz, Lewerenz, Lieberg, Lieber, Lieberman, Liebert, Liebermann

A parabola opening up or down has vertex (0,-4) and passes through (-12,14). Write its equation in vertex form
photoshop1234 [79]

The value of a will be 0.125. Then the value of a is positive then the parabola will be upward.

<h3>What is the parabola?</h3>

It's the locus of a moving point that keeps the same distance between a stationary point and a specified line. The focus is a non-movable point, while the directrix is a non-movable line.

A parabola opening up or down has vertex (0,-4) and passes through (-12,14).

The equation of the parabola is given as

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

(h, k) = (0, -4)

Then the equation of the parabola will be

y = a(x)² - 4

The parabola is passing through (-12, 14). Then the value of a will be

   14 = a(-12)² - 4

   14 = 144a - 4

144a = 18

     a = 1/8

     a = 0.125

Then the equation of the parabola will be

y = 0.125x² - 4

If the value of a is positive then the parabola will be upward.

More about the parabola link is given below.
