#1. Joseph wants to find the side length of a square that has an area of 150

Mathematics
1 answer:
adell [148]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a square is given by the formula

A=b^2

where

b is the length side of the square

In this problem we have

A=150\ ft^2

substitute in the formula

b^2=150

take the square root both sides

b=\sqrt{150}\ ft\\

simplify

b=5\sqrt{6}\ ft

Remember that

A <u><em>Rational Number</em></u> is a number that can be made by dividing two integers

so

The length side is not a integer

therefore

The answer is irrational

Please help with question A and show work!! thank you
Digiron [165]
The equation for the line of reflection is x = 2. 
If you drew a vertical line crossing the x-axis on x = 2, the drawing will be the same on the left and right side, as if one side was drawn then exactly copied on the other side but flipped. 
The figure is symmetrical, and x = 2 is the line of symmetry. 
Hope this helps!

A pole 5 feet tall is used to support a guy wire for a tower, which runs from the tower to a metal stake in the ground. After pl
sammy [17]

The length of the guy's wire to the nearest foot is 89 feet.

The situation forms a right-angled triangle.

<h3>Properties of a right angle triangle:</h3>
  • A right-angle triangle has one angle of 90 degrees.
  • The sides can be found using the Pythagoras theorem.
  • The angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.

The hypotenuse of the triangle is the length of the wire.

let's use the smaller triangle to find the angle opposite the tower. Therefore,

tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent

tan ∅ =  5 / 2

∅ = tan⁻¹ 2.5

∅ = 68.1985905136

∅ = 68.20°

Therefore,

cos 68.20 = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 68.20 = 33 / hypotenuse

hypotenuse = 33 / cos 68.20

hypotenuse = 88.8606843161

Therefore,

length of wire ≈ 89 feet.

What shapes can you obtain by taking a cross section of a cone?
SashulF [63]
You can get a circle by cutting horizontally and a hyperbola by cutting vertically. You can also get an ellipse and a parabola by cutting at an angle depending on whether the cut comes out the other side or not.
