So to complete the square in
ax^2+bx+c=d form
make sure a=1
subtract c from both sides
take 1/2 of b and square it
add that to both sides
factor perfect square
1x^2-1x-2=0
a=1
move c to other side
add 2 to oth sides
x^2-1x=2
take 1/2 of b and square it
1/2 of -1=-1/2
squaer it
1/4
add that to both sides
x^2-1x+1/4=2+1/4
factor left side
(x-1/2)=2+1/4
first blank is 1/2
2+1/4=8/4+1/4=9/4
blanks are
1/2 and 9/4
Answer:
a. yes
b. Q
c. line MP
Step-by-step explanation:
a. "Collinear" means "on the same line". The diagram shows point K on the same line with M and P, so ...
yes, M, P, and K are collinear
__
b. N, W, and U are the corners of face NUWQ, so point Q is also in that plane.
__
c. The plane MPQ includes face MPQN. The plane TVP includes face TVPM.
Line MP (or PM) is the line where these planes intersect.
