Answer:

y=2x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parametric equation is;

x=6+ln(t),y=t^2+3

<h3><u>BY ELIMINATING THE PARAMETER</u></h3>

To eliminate the parameter we make t the subject in one equation and put it inside the other.

We make t the subject in x=6+ln(t) because it is easier.

\Rightarrow x-6=ln(t)

\Rightarrow {e}^{x-6}=e^{ln(t)}

\Rightarrow {e}^{x-6}=t

Or

t={e}^{x-6}

We now substitute this into y=t^2+3.

This gives us;

y=(e^{x-6})^2+3.

\Rightarrow y=e^{2(x-6)}+3.

We have now eliminated the parameter.

The equation of the tangent at (6,4) is given by;

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where the gradient function is given by;

\frac{dy}{dx}=2e^{2(x-6)}

We substitute x=6 into the gradient function to obtain the gradient.

\Rightarrow m=2e^{2(6-6)}

\Rightarrow m=2e^0

\Rightarrow m=2

The equation of the tangent becomes

y-4=2(x-6)

We simplify to obtain

y=2x-12+4

y=2x-8

<h3><u>WITHOUT ELIMINATING THE PARAMETER</u></h3>

The given parametric equation is;

x=6+ln(t),y=t^2+3

For x=6+ln(t)

\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{1}{t}

For y=t^2+3

\frac{dy}{dt}=2t

The slope is given by;

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{\frac{dy}{dt} }{\frac{dx}{dt} }

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2t }{\frac{1}{t} }

\frac{dy}{dx}=2t^2

At the point, (6,4), we plug in any of the values into the parametric equation and find the corresponding value for t.

Notice that

When x=6, 6=6+\ln(t)

6-6=\ln(t)

0=\ln(t)

e^0=e^\ln(t)

1=t

when y=4, 4=t^2+3

4-3=t^2

1=t^2

t=\pm1

But the slope is the same when we plug in any of these values for t.

\frac{dy}{dx}=2(\pm1)^2=2

The equation of the tangent becomes

y-4=2(x-6)

We simplify to obtain

y=2x-12+4

y=2x-8

Given: Line A R bisects ∠BAC; AB = AC
Nadya [2.5K]

The ΔABR ≅ ΔACR are congruent by SAS theorem

Option D is the correct answer.

The missing diagram is attched with the answer.

<h3>What is a Triangle ?</h3>

A triangle is a polygon with three sides , three vertices and three angles.

SAS will be used to prove the congruence of ΔABR ≅ ΔACR

In both the triangle we have a common side , AR

AB = AC (given)

∠ B A R =  ∠R A C ( given equal)

So as the two side and the included angle is equal

Therefore the ΔABR ≅ ΔACR are congruent by SAS theorem

Option D is the correct answer.

What is the value of x? <br>A.39<br>B.41<br>C.26<br>D.17​
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use Pythogorean Theorem, c² = a² + b² where c is the hypotenuse and a,b is the side lengths :

{c}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}

Let a = 40,

Let b = 9,

{c}^{2}  =  {40}^{2}  +  {9}^{2}

{c}^{2}  = 1600 + 81

{c}^{2}  = 1681

c =  \sqrt{1681}

c = 41 \: units

*Take note, hypotenuse will <u>a</u><u>l</u><u>w</u><u>a</u><u>y</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>b</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>t</u><u>h</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>l</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>g</u><u>e</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>l</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>g</u><u>t</u><u>h</u> among the 3 lengths.

*Pythogorean Theorem can only applied in a right-angle triangle.
