Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
18
2 * 9 = 18
9 + 9 = 18
I can use the angle and the length of JH to find the length of IJ.
To do this, I look at the relationship IJ and JH have to the 52 degree angle. JH is opposite to angle I, and IJ is adjacent to angle I. Because the two side lengths are opposite and adjacent, I use the tangent function to solve this.
Tangent of an angle = the length of the opposite side / the length of the adjacent side. This is just another way to say tan(x)=opposite/adjacent
Now I can fill in what I know...
tan(52)=4.2/x
Now, I want to isolate x.
tan(52) = 4.2/x
x(tan(52))=4.2
x=4.2/tan(52)
Now I put 4.2/tan(52) into a calculator and get x = 3.3 ft
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The general equation of a quadratic function in factored form is equal to
where
a is a coefficient of the leading term
x_1 and x_2 are the roots
we have
substitute
Applying the distributive property convert to expanded form
therefore
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write this as a ratio
x 9
---- = --------
10 15
Using cross products
15x = 10*9
15x = 90
Divide by 15
15x/15 = 90/15
x =6
Answer:
x squared over 4 plus y squared over 8 equals 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation of ellipse is given as;
(x²/a²) + (y²/b²) = 1
The coordinates of a foci are: (±c, 0) where;
c² = b² - a²
However, we know that equation of directrix is; x = ±a/e
Now, Directrix is given ±4
Thus, a/e = 4
a = 4e
We also know that c = ae from ellipse foci coordinates.
Thus, ae = 2
since ae = 2, then (4e)e = 2
4e² = 2
e² = 2/4
e = 1/2
Thus;
a = 4 × 1/2
a = 2
Since c² = b² - a²;
2² = b² - 2²
4 = b² - 4
b² = 8
From (x²/a²) + (y²/b²) = 1, we can put our values to get;
x²/4 + y²/8 = 1
