Using the determinant method, the cross product is

\begin{vmatrix}\vec\imath&\vec\jmath&\vec k\\3&8&-6\\-4&-2&-3\end{vmatrix}=\begin{vmatrix}8&-6\\-2&-3end{vmatrix}\,\vec\imath-\begin{vmatrix}3&-6\\-4&-3\end{vmatrix}\,\vec\jmath+\begin{vmatrix}3&8\\-4&-2\end{vmatrix}\,\vec k=-36\,\vec\imath+33\,\vec\jmath+26\,\vec k

so the answer is B.

Or you can apply the properties of the cross product. By distributivity, we have

(3i + 8j - 6k) x (-4i - 2j - 3k)

= -12(i x i) - 32(j x i) + 24(k x i) - 6(i x j) - 16(j x j) + 12(k x j) - 9(i x k) - 24(j x k) + 18(k x k)

Now recall that

  • (i x i) = (j x j) = (k x k) = 0 (the zero vector)
  • (i x j) = k
  • (j x k) = i
  • (k x i) = j
  • (a x b) = -(b x a) for any two vectors a and b

Putting these rules together, we get

(3i + 8j - 6k) x (-4i - 2j - 3k)

= -32(-k) + 24j - 6k + 12(-i) - 9(-j) - 24i

= (-12 - 24)i + (24 + 9)j + (32 - 6)k

= -36i + 33j + 26k

A drawing has a scale of 1:40.
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

300,000 cm^{2} is bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

10 x 40 = 400

18 x 40 = 720

400 x 720 = 288,000 cm^{2} (area of the bedroom)

300,000 cm^{2} is bigger by 12,000 cm^{2} (so the kitchen is bigger)

If a chord of a circle is 6 and is twice as far from the center chord of length 12, how long is the radius of the circle?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer and explanation:

A center chord in a circle is the diameter of that circle. Therefore a center chord of a circle is different from other chords that touch two points on the circle but not in the center of the circle. A diameter of a circle is the chord that runs the length of the center of the circle touching two points at the edge of the circle. A diameter is twice the radius of the circle. So if the diameter of the circle is 12cm then the radius of the circle is 6cm
