Area = 1/2 Base x Height

Let x= Base, then x+3 = height

35 = 1/2(x)(x+3)

35 = 1/2(x2) + 3/2(x)

70 = x2 + 3x

x2 + 3x - 70 =0

(x+10)(x-7) = 0, x= -10 or 7 (-1 is impossible) so base = 7, height = 10

exercise alone. Two methods of collecting data have been proposed. Method I: Recruit volunteers who are willing to participate.

aniked [119]

Answer:

I) If method I is used, population of generalization will include all those people who may have varying exercising habits or routines. They may or may not have a regular excersing habit. In his case sample is taken from a more diverse population

II) Population of generalization will include people who will have similar excersing routines and habits if method II is used since sample is choosen from a specific population

Step-by-step explanation:

past excercising habits may affect the change in intensity to a targeted excersise in different manner. So in method I a greater diversity is included and result of excersing with or without a trainer will account for greater number of variables than method II.

Solve the following equations for x,

stellarik [79]

(i) 3 csc²(x) - 4 = 0

3 csc²(x) = 4

csc²(x) = 4/3

sin²(x) = 3/4

sin(x) = ± √3/2

x = arcsin(√3/2) + 2nπ or x = arcsin(-√3/2) + 2nπ

x = π/3 + 2nπ or x = -π/3 + 2nπ

where n is any integer. The general result follows from the fact that sin(x) is 2π-periodic.

In the interval 0 ≤ x ≤ 2π, the first family of solutions gives x = π/3 and x = 4π/3 for n = 0 and n = 1, respectively; the second family gives x = 2π/3 and x = 5π/3 for n = 1 and n = 2.

(ii) 4 cos²(x) + 2 cos(x) - 2 = 0

2 cos²(x) + cos(x) - 1 = 0

(2 cos(x) - 1) (cos(x) + 1) = 0

2 cos(x) - 1 = 0 or cos(x) + 1 = 0

2 cos(x) = 1 or cos(x) = -1

cos(x) = 1/2 or cos(x) = -1

[x = arccos(1/2) + 2nπ or x = 2π - arccos(1/2) + 2nπ] or x = arccos(-1) + 2nπ

[x = π/3 + 2nπ or x = 5π/3 + 2nπ] or x = π + 2nπ

For 0 ≤ x ≤ 2π, the solutions are x = π/3, x = 5π/3, and x = π.

A triangle has sides with lengths of 65 in 72 in and 97 in is it a right triangle?

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagoras' theorem,

97^2 = 9409

65^2 + 72^2 = 9409

since 65^2 + 72^2 = 97^2, the triangle is a right angled triangle

This is a question on Pythagoras theorem. If you wish to venture further into it/understand this topic better, you may want to follow my Instagram account (learntionary), where I post some of my own notes on certain topics and also some tips that may be useful to you :)
