Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Triangle L N P has centroid S.

NS=7x-3, SR=5x-3

To find: NS

Solution:

Centroid is the point of intersection of the medians of the triangle such that it divides each of the median in ratio 2:1

So,

NS:SR=2:1\\\frac{NS}{SR}=\frac{2}{1}  \\

Put NS=7x-3, SR=5x-3

\frac{7x-3}{5x-3}=\frac{2}{1}\\  7x-3=10x-6\\10x-7x=-3+6\\3x=3\\x=1

Therefore,

NS=7x-3=7(1)-3=4\,\,units\\SR=5x-3=5(1)-3=2\,units

So,

NS=NS+SR=4+2=6\,\,units

On a unit circle, the vertical distance from the x-axis to a point on the perimeter of the circle is twice the horizontal distan
zalisa [80]

Answer:

(2√5)/5

Explanation:

CHECK THE ATTACHMENT BELOW FOR DETAILED EXPLATION

From the question we can deduced that the vertical distance from the x-axis to a point on the perimeter of the circle is twice the horizontal distance, we can say that the y-coordinate, is twice of the horizontal, then let call the horizontal "y", the vertical would be 2y.

from the attachment the question on the unit circle is interpreted using a figure,then, hypotenuse was first calculated
