If the ratio of side lengths of similar polygons is 6:11, what is the ratio of perimeters?

1 answer:

4 0

6:11 because polygons have 4 side so it would be 24:44 but it just reduces back to 6:11. hope this helped have a good day!!

Calculate the length b to two decimal places.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

B. 21.64

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a triangle and we are asked to find the length of AC (b).

We will use law of cosines to find the length of side AC.

$c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab \text{ cos }\theta$

Upon substituting our given values in the formula we will get,

$(AC)^{2}=15^{2}+12^{2}-2\times 15\times 12 \text{ cos}(106)$

$(AC)^{2}=225+144-360\text{ cos}(106)$

$(AC)^{2}=369-360(-0.275637355817)$

$(AC)^{2}=369+99.22944809412$

$(AC)^{2}=468.22944809412$

Upon taking square root of both sides of our equation we will be get,

$AC=\sqrt{468.22944809412}$

$AC=21.6386101238993629\approx 21.64$

Therefore, the length of b is 21.64 and option B is the correct choice.

Mrs. Kim is teaching a 5th grade class. She is standing 48 feet in front of Lester. Carey is sitting to Lester's right. If Carey

victus00 [196]

Lester and Carey are 14 feet apart

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Kim is teaching a 5th grade class

She is standing 48 feet in front of Lester
Carey is sitting to Lester's right
Carey and Mrs. Kim are 50 feet apart

We need to find how far apart Lester and Carey

Look to the attached figure

The positions of Mrs. Kim, Lester, and Carey formed a right triangle

∵ The distance between Mrs. Kim and Carey is 50 feet

∴ The length of the hypotenuse of the Δ = 50 feet

∵ The distance between Mrs. Kim and Lester is 48 feet

∴ The length of one leg of the Δ = 48 feet

The formula of length of the sides of the right Δ is:

$(hypotenuse)^{2}=(leg_{1})^{2}+(leg_{2})^{2}$

Substitute the length of the hypotenuse and the length of the given leg in the formula above

∵ (50)² = (48)² + (leg)²

∴ 2500 = 2304 + (leg)²

- Subtract 2304 from both sides

∴ 196 = (leg)²

- Take square for both sides

∴ 14 = leg

∵ This leg represents the distance between Lester and Carey

∴ The distance between Lester and Carey = 14 feet

Lester and Carey are 14 feet apart

Which of the following notations correctly describe the end behavior of the polynomial graph below?

ipn [44]

The end behaviour of the polynomial graph is (b) x ⇒ +∝, f(x) ⇒ -∝ and x ⇒ -∝, f(x) ⇒ -∝

<h3>How to determine the end behaviour of the polynomial graph?</h3>

The polynomial graph represents the given parameter

This polynomial graph is a quadratic function opened downwards

Polynomial function of this form have the following end behaviour:

As x increases, f(x) decreases
As x decreases, f(x) decreases

This is represented as

x ⇒ +∝, f(x) ⇒ -∝ and x ⇒ -∝, f(x) ⇒ -∝

Hence, the end behaviour is (b)
