Answer:

$x =\frac{40}{3}\sqrt{3} ; y =\frac{20}{3}\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

standart special right triangle with some square root operations

let the triangle has side a, 2a, and a√3.

since a√3 = 20, then $a=\frac{20}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{20}{3}\sqrt{3}$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

With 60 degrees as the reference angle,

x represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

y represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle

20 represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine x, we would apply the

Sine trigonometric ratio. It is expressed as

Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse.

Sin 60 = 20/x

x = 20/Sin60 = 20/0.8660

x = 23.1

To determine y, we would apply the

Tangent trigonometric ratio. It is expressed as

Tan θ = opposite side/adjacent side.

Tan 60 = 20/y

y = 20/Tan60 = 20/1.7321

y = 11.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, note that -2i really is just z = 0 + (-2)i, so we see that Re(z) = 0 and Im(z) = -2.

When we're going from Cartesian to polar coordinates, we need to be aware of a few things! With Cartesian coordinates, we are dealing explicitly with x = blah and y = blah. With polar coordinates, we are looking at the same plane but with angle and magnitude in consideration.

Graphing z = -2i on the Argand diagram will look like a segment of the y axis. So we ask ourselves "What angle does this make with the positive x axis? One answer you could ask yourself is -90°! But at the same time, it's 270°! Why do you think this is the case?

What about the magnitude? How far is "-2i" stretched from the typical "i". And the answer is -2! Well... really it gets stretched by a factor of 2 but in the negative direction!

Putting all of this together gives us:

z = |mag|*(cos(angle) + isin(angle))

= 2*cos(270°) + isin(270°)).

To verify, let's consider what cos(270°) and sin(270°) are.

If you graph cos(x) and look at 270°, you get 0.

If you graph sin(x) and look at 270°, you get -1.

So 2*(cos(270°) + isin(270°)) = 2(0 + -1*i) = -2i as expected.

The area of a circle is 616cm find the radius

Leokris [45]

<h3>Given :-</h3>

Area of Circle = 616 cm²

Radius of a circle = ?

<h3>Solution :-</h3>

☼︎ <u>Radius of the Circle</u>;

<h3>Using Formula:</h3>

$\\ \red\bigstar {\underline{\boxed{\color{springgreen}{\textsf{ \textbf{ \: Area \: of \: circle= \: \: π \: r \: ² \: }}}}}} \\\\$

<u>Putting values in the formula;</u>

$\\ \sf \implies \: Area \: = \: \pi \: r \: ^{2} \\$

$\\ \sf \implies \: 616 \: = \:\frac{22}{7} \times \: r \: ^{2} \\$

$\\ \sf \implies \: 616 \: \times \: \frac{7}{22} \: = \: \: r \: ^{2} \\$

$\\ \sf \implies \: \: \frac{ \: \: 4312 \: \: }{22} \: = \: \: r \: ^{2} \\$

$\\ \sf \implies \: \: \cancel{\frac{ \: \: 4312 \: \: }{22} }\: = \: \: r \: ^{2} \\$

$\\ \sf \implies \: \: \: 196 \: \: = \: \: r \: ^{2} \\$

$\\ \sf \implies \: \:r \: ^{2} = \: 196 \: \: \: \: \\$

$\\ \sf \implies \: \:r \: = \sqrt{ \: 196 \: } \\$

$\\ \bf \implies \: \:Radius \: = 14 \: cm \\$

henceforth, the Radius of a circle is 14 cm ...!!

In a completely randomized experimental design, three brands of paper towels were tested for their ability to absorb water. Equa

arlik [135]

Answer:

Yes. At this significance level, there is evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the ability of the brands to absorb water.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete:</em>

<em>The significance level is 0.05.</em>

<em>Brand X: 91, 100, 88, 89</em>

<em>Brand Y: 99, 96, 94, 99</em>

<em>Brand Z: 83, 88, 89, 76</em>

We have to check if there is a significant difference between the absorbency rating of each brand.

Null hypothesis: all means are equal

$H_0:\mu_x=\mu_y=\mu_z$

Alternative hypothesis: the means are not equal

$H_a: \mu_x\neq\mu_y\neq\mu_z$

We have to apply a one-way ANOVA

We start by calculating the standard deviation for each brand:

$s_x^2=30,\,\,s_y^2=6,\,\,s_z^2=35.33$

Then, we calculate the mean standard error (MSE):

$MSE=(\sum s_i^2)/a=(30+6+35.33)/3=71.33/3=23.78$

Now, we calculate the mean square between (MSB), but we previously have to know the sample means and the mean of the sample means:

$M_x=92,\,\,M_y=97,\,\,M_z=84\\\\M=(92+97+84)/3=91$

The MSB is then:

$s^2=\dfrac{\sum(M_i-M)^2}{N-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{(92-91)^2+(97-91)^2+(84-91)^2}{3-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{1+36+49}{2}=\dfrac{86}{2}=43\\\\\\\\MSB=ns^2=4*43=172$
