If neither a nor b are equal to zero, which answer most accurately describes the product of (a + bi)(a - bi)?
Scrat [10]

Answer:  the correct option is

(D) The imaginary part is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that neither a nor b are  equal to zero.

We are to select the correct statement that accurately describes the following product :

P=(a+bi)(a-bi)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We will be using the following formula :

(x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2.

From product (i), we get

P\\\\=(a+bi)(a-bi)\\\\=a^2-(bi)^2\\\\=a^2-b^2i^2\\\\=a^2-b^2\times (-1)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{since }i^2=-1]\\\\=a^2+b^2.

So, there is no imaginary part in the given product.

Thus, the correct option is

(D) The imaginary part is zero.

A cable 19 m long runs from the top of a utility pole to a point on the ground 10 m from the base of the pole. How tall is the u
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

16.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can draw a picture. The cable goes from the top of the pole to the ground (with the pole on the right in my drawing), and the point on the ground is 10 m away from the base of the pole. This forms a right triangle, with the right angle being between the 10 m distance and the pole itself. We can then apply the Pythagorean Theorem, so

a²+b²=c², with c being the side opposite the right angle (the cable), getting us

10²+(length of pole)² = 19²

19²-10²=(length of pole)²

= 261

square root both sides to isolate the length of the pole

length of pole ≈ 16.2 m
