The answer is True.
Explanation:
Let a = major axis
Let b = minor axis
Let c = focal length.
Consider the right focus, located a distance c from the center of the ellipse (at the origin).
From the right focus to the right point on the major axis is equal to a-c. This is the minimum distance.
From the right focus to the left point on the major axis is equal to a+c. This is the maximum distance.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(a + b - 2)(a - b + 2)
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
a(a - b + 2) + b(a - b + 2) - 2(a - b + 2) ← distribute the parenthesis
= a² - ab + 2a + ab - b² + 2b - 2a + 2b - 4 ← collect like terms
= a² - b² +4b - 4
Hey there! I’m happy to help!
We see that the two equal sides are longer than the base. This means that our a will be larger than b. The problem says that one of the longer sides is 6.3. Since the two longer sides are equal, that means that both longer sides are 6.3 cm. Therefore, we can simply subtract these two from the perimeter to find the shorter side, which is the base.
15.7-6.3-6.3=3.1
Therefore, the length of the base is 3.1 cm.
I hope that this helps!
You are given Kayla's walking distance along the edge of the river 100 ft and marks point C, then she walks 100 ft further and marks point D and she turns 90° and walks until her location, point A, and point C are collinear. She marks point E at this location. ABC and EDC are congruent. thats just what i think it is tho
