Describe the steps to draw a line perpendicular to line segment AB through point C that is not on the segment.

Answer:

First you can just flip the line on point C to make a 90 degree angle. That's the simple way.

Other way is to get the slope of AB let's say ex : -1/2

We need to get the slope of C to be a reversed reciprocal of -1/2. So, 2.

Basically I flipped -1/2 in to -2/1 then removed the negative sign for 2.

:)

Hope that makes sense to ya

2.3 - 5m = 9.8 + 2.5m
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

m=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2.3-5m=9.8+2.5m

     +5m=9.8+5m

2.3=9.8+7.5m

-9.8   -9.8

-7.5=7.5m

/7.5   /7.5

-1=m

Effectus [21]

Answer:

measure angle D = 62

Step-by-step explanation:

as the sum  of measures of triangle =180

then (8x-40)+(4x-10)+(3x+20)=180

15x-30=180

x=(180+30)/15=14

XYZ SIMILAR TO PDQ

Y=D=3*14+20=62

Pls answer the question with explanation
adell [148]

Answer:

a) 96m

b) 2 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance travelled in a velocity time graph as shown in the image is the area of the shape. As such, considering the first 14 seconds, the distance covered will be computed by finding the area of the shape.

Note that the shape to be considered ends t the 14 seconds mark. This shape is a trapezium. The area of  a trapezium is given as

A = 1/2(a + b) h

where a and b are the parallel sides of the trapezium and h is the height As such, the distance covered in the first 14 seconds

= 1/2 (14 + 10) * 8

= 4 * 24

= 96m

The acceleration after 4 seconds

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time, at time 0 second, the velocity is also 0 but at time 4 seconds, the velocity is 8 m/s hence, the acceleration after 4 seconds

= 8/4

= 2 m/s^2

Polygon ABCD has the following vertices: A(−3, 3), B(5, 5), C(5, −4), and D(−3, −4) Calculate the area of the polygon.
aniked [119]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. When you plot the given points, you obtain a trapezoid, therefore, you must apply the formula for calculate the area of a trapezoid, which is:

A=\frac{(B+b)h}{2}

Where B is the larger base, b is the smaller base and h is the height.

2. The dimensions are:

B=9units\\ b=7units\\ h=8units

3. Substitute values:

\\A=\frac{(9 units+7units)(8units)}{2}  A=64 units^{2}

The answer is: 64 units^{2}
