Answer: equilateral y=60

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees. So, because you have the angle measurement of two sides, you can set up an equation to solve for the third side: 60+60+x=180 (do the math and you end up with y=60)

And because all three of the angle measures are equal, the triangle is defined as an equilateral triangle.

Answer:

Equilateral - 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles of a triangle add up to 180°

Therefore 180-120=60

Therefore it's an equilateral triangle since all angles are equal

4. a) A ping pong ball has a 75% rebound ratio. When you drop it from a height of k feet, it bounces and bounces endlessly. If t
Klio2033 [76]

First part of question:

Find the general term that represents the situation in terms of k.

The general term for geometric series is:

a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}

a_{1} = the first term of the series

r = the geometric ratio

a_{1} would represent the height at which the ball is first dropped. Therefore:

a_{1} = k

We also know that the ball has a rebound ratio of 75%, meaning that the ball only bounces 75% of its original height every time it bounces. This appears to be our geometric ratio. Therefore:

r=\frac{3}{4}

Our general term would be:

a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}

a_{n}=k(\frac{3}{4}) ^{n-1}

Second part of question:

If the ball dropped from a height of 235ft, determine the highest height achieved by the ball after six bounces.

k represents the initial height:

k = 235\ ft

n represents the number of times the ball bounces:

n = 6

Plugging this back into our general term of the geometric series:

a_{n}=k(\frac{3}{4}) ^{n-1}

a_{n}=235(\frac{3}{4}) ^{6-1}

a_{n}=235(\frac{3}{4}) ^{5}

a_{n}=55.8\ ft

a_{n} represents the highest height of the ball after 6 bounces.

Third part of question:

If the ball dropped from a height of 235ft, find the total distance traveled by the ball when it strikes the ground for the 12th time. ​

This would be easier to solve if we have a general term for the <em>sum </em>of a geometric series, which is:

S_{n}=\frac{a_{1}(1-r^{n})}{1-r}

We already know these variables:

a_{1}= k = 235\ ft

r=\frac{3}{4}

n = 12

Therefore:

S_{n}=\frac{(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})}{1-\frac{3}{4} }

S_{n}=\frac{(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})}{\frac{1}{4} }

S_{n}=(4)(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})

S_{n}=910.22\ ft
