The perimeter of a square with side a = 7.2 cm is 28.8 cm. Yes there exists a direct proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter of square

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that side of square "a" = 7.2 cm

We have to find the perimeter of square

<em><u>The perimeter of square is given as:</u></em>

Perimeter of square = 4a

Where "a" represents the length of side of square

Substituting the given value a = 7.2 cm in above formula, we get perimeter of square

Perimeter of square = 4(7.2) = 28.8 cm

<em><u>Are the perimeter of the square and the length of its side directly proportional quantities?</u></em>

\begin{array}{l}{\text { perimeter of square }=4 a=4 \times \text { length of side }} \\\\ {\frac{\text { perimeter of square }}{\text { length of side }}=4}\end{array}

The Perimeter is equal to a constant times the Side length, or the Perimeter divided by the Side length is equal to four. So this is definitely a proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter.

Two values are said to be in direct proportion when an increase in one results in an increase in the other.

So when length of sides increases, perimeter also increases

Hence perimeter and length of side of square are directly propotional quantities

Find the m∡B to the nearest tenth of a degree if cos B = 0.8926 and ∡B is an acute angle
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

26.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side of the triangle in which the angle is formed to the hypotenuses side of the triangle. The cosine of the angle gives the ratio of these sides. However, the arc cosine of the ratio gives the angle measured in degrees.

If cos B = 0.8926

then arc cosine 0.8926  which may be expressed as cos-1 0.8926 will give the value of B.

B = cos-1 0.8926

= 26.8°

A certain bay with very high tides displays the following behavior. In one 12-h period the water starts at mean sea level, rises
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

the required equation is; y = 21 sin(πt/6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Water rises above sea level = 21 ft

Water drops below sea level = 21 ft

so

maximum = 21 ft and also

minimum = 21 ft

Amplitude = ( maximum + minimum ) / 2

Amplitude = ( 21 + 21 ) / 2

Amplitude = ( 21 + 21 ) / 2 = 42/2 = 21 ft

Period = 12 hours

and we know that; period = 2π/b

so

12 = 2π/b

12b = 2π

b = 2π / 12

b = π/6

Standard equation for simple harmonic is; y = asin(bt)

we substitute

y = 21 sin(πt/6)

Hence the required equation is; y = 21 sin(πt/6)
