In triangle ∆PQR, C is the centroid.

1 answer:

3 0

Refer to the redrawn figure below.

Because C is the centroid,
PZ = ZR; QY = YR; and PX = XQ.

Part a.
If CY = 10, then PC = 2*CY = 20
PY = PC + CY = 20 + 10 = 30
Answer:
PC = 20
PY = 30

Part b.
If QC = 10, then ZC = QC/2 = 5
ZQ = ZC + QC = 5 + 10 = 15
Answer:
ZC = 5
ZQ = 15

Part c.
Given: PX = 20.
Because the median bisects side PQ, therefore PX = QX = 20
PQ = PX + QX = 40
Answer:
PQ = 40

Place these numbers in correct order and and simplify 25x^2 +6x^3 -7 +17 -24x^4 +6

Ket [755]

Answer:

$-24x^4+6x^3+25x^2+16$

Step 1:

We need to place the numbers in descending order of the power. Here, $-24x^4$ has the largest power, so that number goes first. We keep doing this until we end up with our final expression, placed in order based on the powers.
