What conic section degenerates into a line?

Mathematics
1 answer:
andrew11 [14]3 years ago
5 0
<h3>Answer: A) parabola</h3>

Some degenerate parabola cases form a single straight line, while other cases form one pair of parallel lines.

A degenerate hyperbola forms two lines that intersect at the vertex of the cone. We can rule out choice B.

A degenerate circle is a single point, so we can rule out choice C.

A degenerate ellipse is also a single point. Any circle is an ellipse (but not the other way around). We can rule out choice D.

I REALLY NEED AN ANSWER FAST! Which statement about the diagram is true?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

To keep it short, refer to triangle exterior angle theorem.

Edit: If you want the full explanation,

A isn't the answer. The triangle exterior angle states that the measure of the 2 triangle interior add up to the the exterior angle of the other interior angle within the triangle.

Meaning that

measure of angle 1 equal the measure of 3 and 4 combined.

B. is wrong they are equal to each other because angle 2 is equal to angle 2

angle 1 is equal to angle 3 and 4

So they are equal

C.Wrong unless it a 30 60 90 triangle or 45 45 90 triangle, C is wrong

D. is right since measure of angle 4 and angle 3 add up to angle 1, angle 4 would be lesser than angle 1.

3(1 – 2x) &gt; 3 – 6х help
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

<h2>\huge \: x \in ∅</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand this</h3><h3>you need to know about:</h3>
  • inequality
  • distribution
  • PEMDAS
<h3>given:</h3>
  • 3(1  -  2x) > 3 - 6x
<h3>to solve:</h3>
  • x
<h3>let's solve:</h3>

step - 1  : define\\ 3(1  -  2x) > 3 - 6x

step -  2: distribute\\ 3  -  6x > 3 - 6x

step - 3  :  \\ add \: 6x \: to \: both \: sides

3  -  6x  + 6x> 3 - 6x + 6x

3 > 3

\therefore \: the \: statement \: is \: false \: for \: any \: value \: of \: x \: because \: both \: sides \: are \: identical

therefore,

x \in ∅
