A house with a rectangle base is built on a plot of land. The southwest corner of the plot is designated with coordinates (0,0).

The corners of the house are located at the points with coordinates (20,20), (5,40), (33,61), and (48,41), where distances are measured in feet. What are the length and width of the base of the house?

Answer:

The width of the base of the house is 25 feet

The length of the base of the house is 35 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Displayed in the attachment is the plot of land drawn out in WXYZ(not to scale)

With the southwest corner coordinate (0,0) as the reference point

Plotted out is the base of the house built on it with coordinates (20,20),(5,40),(33,61),(48,41)

With A and B labelled width and length respectively

Length between coordinates is given as

Length=√(〖(x2-x1)〗^2+(〖y2-y1)〗^2 )

To find the width A,the points with coordinates (20,20) and (5,40) are used or (33,61) and (48,41)

Using point with coordinates (20,20) and (5,40)

Width, A=√(〖(5-20)〗^2+(〖40-20)〗^2 )=35

with x1=20, y1=20, x2=5, y2=40

Also try using points with coordinates (33,61) and (48,41).You will get same answer(opposite sides of a rectangle are equal)

To find the length B,the points with coordinates (48,41) and (20,20) are used or (5,40) and (33,61)

Using point with coordinates (48,41) and (20,20)

Length,B=√(〖(48-20)〗^2+(〖41-20)〗^2 )=25

with x1=20, y1=20, x2=48, y2=41

Also try using points with coordinates (5,40) and (33,61).You will get same answer(opposite sides of a rectangle are equal)

PLEASE HELP IM BEGGING Ira B. Scholar, that bizarre math teacher, put the figure at right on a recent test and said,
rewona [7]

Answer:

The perimeter is the distance all the way around the outside of a 2D shape.  To calculate the perimeter, sum the lengths of all the sides.

Therefore, perimeter of the triangle = (2x - 8) + (2x + 5) + (30 - 3x)

Collect like terms:  2x + 2x - 3x - 8 + 5 + 30

Combine like terms:  x + 27

Therefore, perimeter of triangle = x + 27

We are told that the perimeter is 25:

x + 27 = 25

Subtract 27 from both sides: x = -2

If x = -2, then the side with equation 2x - 8 = (2 x -2) - 8 = -12

A length cannot be negative, therefore the perimeter cannot equal 25.

Answer the question in the picture

<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • left picture (bottom expression): -cot(x)
  • right picture (top expression): tan(x)
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

A graphing calculator can show you a graph of each expression, which you can compare to the offered choices.

_____

You can make use of the relations ...

... sin(a)+sin(b) = 2sin((a+b)/2)cos((a-b)/2)

... cos(a)+cos(b) = 2cos((a+b)/2)cos((a-b)/2)

... cos(a)-cos(b) = -2sin((a+b)/2)sin((a-b)/2)

Then you have ...

\dfrac{\cos{2x}-\cos{4x}}{\sin{2x}+\sin{4x}}=\dfrac{2\sin{3x}\sin{x}}{2\sin{3x}\cos{x}}=\dfrac{\sin{x}}{\cos{x}}=\tan{x}

and ...

\dfrac{\cos{2x}+\cos{4x}}{\sin{2x}-\sin{4x}}=\dfrac{2\cos{3x}\cos{x}}{-2\cos{3x}\sin{x}}=\dfrac{-\cos{x}}{\sin{x}}=-\cot{x}

In the diagram, FG=34, GH=288, and HJ=256. Is GH tangent to circle F?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If GH is tangent to circle F, then it forms a right angle with FG.  Therefore, triangle FGH would be a right triangle and would satisfy Pythagorean theorem.

34² + 256² = 288²

66692 = 82944

The sides are not a Pythagorean triple, so GH is not tangent to the circle.

Answer:

a) f(2) = 4

b) g(3) = 3

c) g(1/3) = -1

d) f(3) = 1/2

e) g(-2) = 2

f) f(π) = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} and g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}

We need to find the following values of f and g

a) f(2)

f(2) means when x=2, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} , when x =2 then y=4

So, f(2) = 4

b) g(3)

g(3) means when x=3, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}, when x =3 then y=3

So, g(3) = 3

c) g(1/3)

g(1/3) means when x=1/3, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}, when x =1/3 then y=-1

So, g(3) = -1

d) f(3)

f(3) means when x=3, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} , when x =3 then y=1/2

So, f(3) = 1/2

e) g(-2)

g(-2) means when x=-2, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}, when x =-2 then y=2

So, g(-2) = 2

f) f(π)

f(π) means when x=π, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} , when x =π then y=3

So, f(π) = 3
