Since this triangle is a 30 , 60 triangle ..
therefore: the side length opposite to the angle 30 equals half the length of the hypotenuse = 1/2 × 16sqr3 =8sqr3
y=8sqr3
according to pythagoras theorem ..therfore the length of the side x =square root of (16sqr3)^2-(8sqr3)^2 =24

This is a 30, 60, 90 triangle. One angle measures 30° and the other measures 90°. The other has to be 60° because all triangles are 180°. These triangles have special rules:

Say the side opposite 30° (in this case, y) is equal to 1

The side opposite the 60° (in this case, x) is equal to √3

The side opposite 90° is 2.

If 16√3 is opposite 90°, then opposite 30° would be half of that. Therefore, y = 8√3.

Now we need to multiply y by √3 to get x, because the side opposite 60° is always that of 30° multiplied by √3.

8√3 * √3 = 24 as the √3s cancel and become 3. So 8 multiplied by 3 makes 24.

Therefore, x = 24.

a. Use the mean value theorem. 16 falls between 12 and 20, so

v'(16)\approx\dfrac{v(20)-v(12)}{20-12}=\dfrac{240-200}8=5

(Don't forget your units - 5 m/min^2)

b. v(t) gives the Johanna's velocity at time t. The magnitude of her velocity, or speed, is |v(t)|. Integrating this would tell us the total distance she has traveled whilst jogging.

The Riemann sum approximates the integral as

\displaystyle\int_0^{40}|v(t)|\,\mathrm dt=12\cdot200+8\cdot240+4\cdot220+16\cdot150=7600

If you're not sure how this is derived: we're given 5 sample points, so we can cut the interval [0, 40] into 4 subintervals. The lengths of each subinterval are 12, 8, 4, and 16 (the distances between each sample point), and the height of the rectangle approximating the area under the plot of |v(t)| is determined by the value of v(t) at each sample point, 200, 240, |-220| = 220, and 150.

c. Bob's velocity is given by B(t), so his acceleration is given by B'(t). We have

B'(t)=3t^2-12t

and at t=5 his acceleration is B'(5)=15 m/min^2.

d. Bob's average velocity over [0, 10] is given by the difference quotient,

\dfrac{B(10)-B(0)}{10-0}=\dfrac{700-300}{10}=40 m/min

A triangle ABC is inscribed in a circle, such that AB is a diameter. What are the measures of angles of this triangle if measure
Katen [24]

Answer:

∠C=90°

∠A=67°

∠B=23°

Step-by-step explanation:

For angle C:

  Thales' Theorem states that an angle inscribed across a circle's diameter is always a right angle.

  Therefore, since AB is the diameter(hypotenuse) then angle C is the right angle. (90°)

For Angle A:

  The measure of arc BC= 134 degrees. We can just use a formula for an inscribed triangle. ∠A = 1/2 (mBC)

  ∠A= (1/2)134

  ∠A= 77°

For angle B:

  All triangle angles all add up to 180. We can just subtract angles A and C from 180°:

  ∠B = 180-(90+67)

  ∠B = 23°

A pair of angles is supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees. A pair of angels is complementary if the sum of t
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The measure of the complement =

= 80°

The measure of the supplement=

= 170°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

90-x equal the degree measure of its complement

180-x equal the degree measure of its supplement.

We are told in the question that: the supplement of a given angle is 10 degrees more than twice its complement.

Hence, the Equation is;

(180 - x) = 10° + 2(90 - x)

180 - x = 10 + 180 - 2x

Collect like terms

-x + 2x = 10 + 180 - 180

x = 10°

Hence,

The measure of the complement =

90 - x

= 90 - 10

= 80°

The measure of the supplement=

180 - x

= 180 - 10

= 170°
