Answer: The measure of AC is 32.

Explanation:

It is given that the Points B, D, and F are midpoints of the sides of ΔACE. EC = 38 and DF = 16.

The midpoint theorem states that the if a line segments connecting two midpoints then the line is parallel to the third side and it's length is half of the third side.

Since F and D are midpoints of AE and EC respectively.

So by midpoint theorem length of AC is twice of DF.

$AC=2\times DF$

$AC=2\times 16$

$AC=32$

Therefore, the length of AC is 32.

The value of <br> Arc sin⁡(1/2) + Arc tan⁡(1) is

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

sin 30° = 1/2, therefore arcsin (1/2) = 30°
tan 45° = 1, therefore arctan (1) = 45°

<u>So the value of the expression is:</u>

arcsin (1/2) + arctan (1) = 30° + 45° = 75°

If a convex polyhedron has 12 edges and 8 faces, then how many vertices does it have?

Vika [28.1K]

Hi

Use Euler's formula for this for a 3D figure. F + V = E + 2, where F is the number of faces, V is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges, +2! You have enough info to fill in the formula to find that the number of vertices is 6.

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point. y = –6x + 2; (–1, 2)

kap26 [50]

Parallel=same slope
Y=mx+b
Sub in the slope and point to solve for b
2=-6(-1)+b
2=6+b
2-6=b
-4=b
The equation is y=-6x-4; the answer is B
Hope this helps!

Y=x^2+bx+c;(-2,3)

Maksim231197 [3]

<h3>Answer: b = 4 and c = 7.</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

Comparing y = x^2+bx+c to y = ax^2+bx+c, we see that a = 1.

The vertex given is (-2,3). In general, the vertex is (h,k). So h = -2 and k = 3.

Plug those three values into the vertex form below

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1(x-(-2))^2 + 3

y = (x+2)^2 + 3

Then expand everything out and simplify

y = x^2+4x+4 + 3

y = x^2+4x+7

We see that b = 4 and c = 7.
