Answer:

So each interior angle measurement of the regular triangle is 60 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle is regular, this means all the side measurements are congruent to each other and that all the angle measurements are congruent to each other.

If the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees and you know they are each the same then you could either solve x+x+x=180 or know we are just dealings with an equiangular triangle in which all angles have measurement 60 degrees.

If need more convincing, let's actually solve:

x+x+x=180

3x=180

x=180/3

x=60

So each interior angle measurement of the regular triangle is 60 degrees.

An isosceles trapezoid ABCD with height 2 units has all its vertices on the parabola y=a(x+1)(x−5). What is the value of a, if p

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

a = -0.3575

Step-by-step explanation:

The points A and D lie on the x-axis, this means that they are the x-intercepts of the parabola, and therefore we can find their location.

The points A and B are located where

$y=a(x+1)(x-5)=0$

This gives

$x=-1$

$y=5$

Now given the coordinates of A, we are in position to find the coordinates of the point B. Point B must have y coordinate of y=2 (because the base of the trapezoid is at y=0), and the x coordinate of B, looking at the figure, must be x coordinate of A plus horizontal distance between A and B, i.e

$B_x=A_x+\frac{2}{tan(60)} =-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3}$

Thus the coordinates of B are:

$B=(-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3},2)$

Now this point B lies on the parabola, and therefore it must satisfy the equation $y=a(x+1)(x-5).$

Thus

$2=a((-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3})+1)((-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3})-5)$

Therefore

$a=\frac{2}{((-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3})+1)((-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3})-5)}$

$\boxed{a=-0.3575}$
