What is the area of the triangle formed from (0,-1), (0.4), and (4,-1)?

Answer:

10 squared units

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is pretty easy since it creates a right triangle.  So the base length and height length are pretty easy to identify.

The area of a triangle is .5*base*height.

The base length after drawing the points is a horizontal so just count it or do 4-0=4.

The height length after drawing the points is a vertical so just count it or do 4-(-1)=4+1=5.

So the area of the triangle is .5*4*5=.5(20)=10 units squared.

Now if you didn't fill like drawing it and you knew how to find the determinant.

You just compute

.5 times det|  0   -1     1  |

                   |  0   4      1  |

                   |   4  -1      1  |

.5[  0 det| 4     1  |          -   -1 det|  0   1 |          +    1 det | 0   4 |      ]

              |  -1    1  |                        |  4   1 |                         |  4  -1 |

.5[ 0                           - -1(0-4)                      +   1(0-16)]

.5[  0                         -4                               -16]

.5[-20]

-10

And if you get a negative just take the absolute value of it giving you 10.

What is the interquartile range of this data 0 5 10 15 20​
timama [110]
The interquartile range (IQR) is 15.

To find the IQR, you must:
1) Find the median
2) Split the data set in two at the median.
3) Find the medians from both the groups you made in Step 2
4) Label the smaller one Quartile 1 and the larger one Quartile 3 (Hint: The median is Quartile 2)
5) Subtract: Quartile 3 - Quartile 1

"find values of a and b that make the statement |a+b|=|a| + |b| false"
kotegsom [21]
Just choose any combination so that a is negative and b is positive, and vice versa. For example, if a = 3 and b = -6, |3-6| ≠ |3| + |-6|.
This is because |-3| = 3, and |3|+|-6| = 3+6 = 9.
3≠9.

What is third of 1 5/8
stiv31 [10]

1 5/8 = 13/
8
= 1 5/
8
= 1.625
Spelled result in words is thirteen eighths (or one and five eighths).

How do you solve fractions step by step?
Conversion a mixed number 1 5/
8
to a improper fraction: 1 5/8 = 1 5/
8
= 1 · 8 + 5/
8
= 8 + 5/
8
= 13/
8


To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 1 by the denominator 8. Whole number 1 equally 1 * 8/
8
= 8/
8

b) Add the answer from previous step 8 to the numerator 5. New numerator is 8 + 5 = 13
c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 13) over the denominator 8.

One and five eighths is thirteen eighths

I need to find the measure of each angle. I don't know where or how to start?​
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Every triangle adds up to 180°

So to get the angle of the triangle we already have two values of:

180 - 79 - 52 = 50

Then since it's at a 90° angle we can subtract 50 to get:

40° as the other part of the right angle.

And applying the 180 rule again:

180 - 100 - 40 = 40
