If the integral as written in my comment is accurate, then we have

I=\displaystyle\int_{3/2}^2\sqrt{(x-1)(3-x)}\,\mathrm dx

Expand the polynomial, then complete the square within the square root:

(x-1)(3-x)=-x^2+4x-3=1-(x-2)^2

I=\displaystyle\int_{3/2}^2\sqrt{1-(x-2)^2}\,\mathrm dx

Let x=2-\cos\theta and \mathrm dx=\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta:

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sqrt{1-(2-\cos\theta-2)^2}\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sqrt{1-\cos^2\theta}\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sqrt{\sin^2\theta}\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

Recall that \sqrt{x^2}=|x| for all x, but for all \theta in the integration interval we have \sin\theta>0. So \sqrt{\sin^2\theta}=\sin\theta:

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sin^2\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

Recall the double angle identity,

\sin^2\theta=\dfrac{1-\cos(2\theta)}2

I=\displaystyle\frac12\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}(1-\cos(2\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta

I=\dfrac\theta2-\dfrac{\sin(2\theta)}4\bigg|_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}

I=\dfrac\pi4-\left(\dfrac\pi6-\dfrac{\sqrt3}8\right)=\boxed{\dfrac\pi{12}+\dfrac{\sqrt3}8}

You can determine the more general result in the same way.

I=\displaystyle\int_p^q\sqrt{(x-a)(b-x)}\,\mathrm dx

Complete the square to get

(x-a)(b-x)=-(x-a)(x-b)=-x^2+(a+b)x-ab=\dfrac{(a+b)^2}4-ab-\left(x-\dfrac{a+b}2\right)^2

and let c=\frac{(a+b)^2}4-ab for brevity. Note that

c=\dfrac{(a+b)^2}4-ab=\dfrac{a^2-2ab+b^2}4=\dfrac{(a-b)^2}4

I=\displaystyle\int_p^q\sqrt{c-\left(x-\dfrac{a+b}2\right)^2}\,\mathrm dx

Make the following substitution,

x=\dfrac{a+b}2-\sqrt c\,\cos\theta

\mathrm dx=\sqrt c\,\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

and the integral reduces like before to

I=\displaystyle\int_P^Q\sqrt{c-c\cos^2\theta}\,\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

where

p=\dfrac{a+b}2-\sqrt c\,\cos P\implies P=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{\frac{a+b}2-p}{\sqrt c}

q=\dfrac{a+b}2-\sqrt c\,\cos Q\implies Q=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{\frac{a+b}2-q}{\sqrt c}

I=\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt c}2\int_P^Q(1-\cos(2\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta

(Depending on the interval [<em>p</em>, <em>q</em>] and thus [<em>P</em>, <em>Q</em>], the square root of cosine squared may not always reduce to sine.)

Resolving the integral and replacing <em>c</em>, with

c=\dfrac{(a-b)^2}4\implies\sqrt c=\dfrac{|a-b|}2=\dfrac{b-a}2

because a, gives

I=\dfrac{b-a}2(\cos(2P)-\cos(2Q)-(P-Q))

Without knowing <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> explicitly, there's not much more to say.

I have two proof questions and I don't really know how to do them.
goldfiish [28.3K]

\angle1\cong\angle2 corresponding angles, therefore

m∠1 = m∠2 → m∠2 = 130°

\angle2\cong\angle3 vertical angles, therefore

m∠2 = m∠3 → m∠3 = 130°


If ∠1 and ∠2 are complementary, then m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°.

If ∠2 and ∠3 are complementary, then m∠2 + m∠3 = 90°

Therfore

m\angle1 + m\angle2 = m\angle2 + m\angle3\qquad|\text{subtract}\ m\angle2\ \text{ from both sides}\\\\m\angle1 = m\angle3\to\angle1\cong\angle3

The area of a cross section perpendicular to the base of a rectangular prism is 45 square inches. If the length and width of the
Naily [24]

The height of the prism is 2.25 \ in

Explanation:

It is given that the area of the cross section of the rectangular prism is 45 square inches.

Length of the rectangular prism is 5 \ in

Width of the rectangular prism is 5 \ in

To determine the height of the prism, let us substitute these values in the formula SA=(2l+2w)h , we get,

45=(2(5)+2(5))h

Multiplying the terms within the bracket, we get,

45=(10+10)h

Adding the terms within the bracket, we have,

45=20h

Dividing both sides by 20, we get,

2.25=h

Thus, the height of the rectangular prism is 2.25 \ in
