What is the approximate length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with vertices (-6, 2),

Mathematics
1 answer:
muminat3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A(-6, 2),   B(6,-3) and C(-6, -3)

AB² =  (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

      = ( 6 -[-6])² + ( -3 -2)²

      = ( 6 + 6)² + ( -3 -2)² = 12²  + (-5)²  = 144 + 25 =169

AB = √169 = 13 units

BC²  = ( -6 -6)²  + ( -3 - [-3])² = (-6-6)²  + (-3 +3)²

      = (-12)²  + 0  = 144

BC = √144 = 12 unis

CA²  = (-6 - [-6])²  +(-3-2)²  = (-6 + 6)²  + ( -3-2)²

         = 0 + (-5)²  = 25

CA =√25 = 5 units

length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle  = 13units

Suppose an airline policy states that all baggage must be box shaped with a sum of​ length, width, and height not exceeding 114
NISA [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the length of one side of the base be s and the height by h.  Then the volume of the box is V = s^2*h; this is to be maximized.

The constraints are as follows:  2s + h = 114 in.  Solving for h, we get 114 - 2s = h.

Substituting 114 - 2s for h in the volume formula, we obtain:

V = s^2*(114 - 2s), or V = 114s^2 - 2s^3, or V = 2*(s^2)(57 - s)

This is to be maximized.  To accomplish this, find the first derivative of this formula for V, set the result equal to 0 and solve for s:

dV

----- = 2[(s^2)(-1) + (57 - s)(2s)] = 0 = 2s^2(-1) + 114s - 2s^2

ds

Simplifying this, we get dV/ds = -4s^2 + 114s = 0.  Then either s = 28.5 or s = 0.

Then the area of the base is 28.5^2 in^2 and the height is 114 - 2(28.5) = 57 in

and the volume is V = s^2(h) = 46,298.25 in^3

If angle 1 and angle 2 form linear pair and m angle 1 =50, then m angle = 2
Irina-Kira [14]
Measure of angle 2 would be 130 degrees because since it forms a linear pair the two angles added together have to equal 180 degrees so 
180 - 50 = 130
