Answer:

Length of B is 7.4833

Step-by-step explanation:

The vector sum of A and B vectors in 2D is

C=A+B=(a_1+b_1,a_2+b_2)

And its magnitude is:

C=\sqrt{(a_1+b_1)^2+(a_2+b_2)^2} =9

Where

a_1=Asinx

a_2=Acosx

b_1=Bsin(x+90)

b_2=Bcos(x+90)

Using the properties of the sum of two angles in the sin and cosine:

b_1=Bsin(x+90)=B(sinx*cos90+sin90*cosx)=Bcosx

b_2=Bcos(x+90)=B(cosx*cos90-sinx*sin90)=-Bsinx

Sustituying in the magnitud of the sum

C=\sqrt{(Asinx+Bcosx)^2+(Acosx-Bsinx)^2} =9

C=\sqrt{A^2sin^2x+2ABsinxcosx+B^2cos^2x+A^2cos^2x-2ABsinxcosx+B^2sin^2x} =9

C=\sqrt{A^2(sin^2x+cos^2x)+B^2(cos^2x+sin^2x)}

C=\sqrt{A^2+B^2} =9

Solving for B

A^2+B^2 =9^2

B^2 =9^2-A^2

Sustituying the value of the magnitud of A

B^2=81-5^2=81-25=56

B= 7. 4833

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, you can solve this easily by elimination. Multiply the first equation by -2 in order to cancel out terms when adding to the second equation.

2) Then, add the new set of equations together. However, everything cancels out, bringing us to 0 = 0. This means that the lines the equations make must be the same. Thus, all real numbers must make this equation true, meaning that there are infinite solutions.

You are graphing Square ABCDABCDA, B, C, D in the coordinate plane. The following are three of the vertices of the square: A(4,
Kitty [74]

Answer:

D(4,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given three of the vertices of the square: A(4, -7), B(8, -7),C(8, -3)

Let the coordinate of the fourth vertex be D(x,y).

We know that diagonals of a square are perpendicular bisector. So, the midpoint of both diagonals is the same.

The diagonals are BD and AC

Midpoint of BD = Midpoint of AC

\left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{-7+y}{2}\right) =\left(\dfrac{4+8}{2},\dfrac{-7+(-3)}{2}\right)\\ \left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{y-7}{2}\right) =\left(\dfrac{12}{2},\dfrac{-10}{2}\right)\\ \left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{y-7}{2}\right) =\left(6,-5\right)\\$Therefore$:\\\dfrac{8+x}{2}=6\\8+x=12\\x=12-8\\x=4\\$Similarly$\\\dfrac{y-7}{2}=-5\\y-7=-5*2\\y-7=-10\\y=-10+7=-3

The coordinates of the fourth vertex is D(4,-3)
