4 0

Answer:

4 ft downwards

Step-by-step explanation:

old height off the ground :

7^2+b^2=25^2

49+b^2=625

b^2=576

b=24

new height off the ground :

7+8=15

15^2+ b^2 =25^2

225+b^2 = 625

b^2 = 400

b=20

difference between heights :

24 - 20 =  4

Which autocad command can we use to quickly calculate the area and perimeter of a closed region defined by a polyline?
polet [3.4K]

The answer is: The Area command.

The explanation is shown below:

1. The Area command is a very useful command in AutoCad, and you can use it to calculate  the area and the perimeter of a closed region draw with a polyline.

2. To use this command, you only need to type AREA and press the enter button. Then, you must select the points of the closed region and press enter again. Once you do this, the software will show you the perimeter and the area.

Find where the slope of the curve is defined:<br> x^2y-xy^2=4
Natali [406]
You do the implcit differentation, then solve for y' and check where this is defined. 
In your case: Differentiate implicitly: 2xy + x²y' - y² - x*2yy' = 0 
Solve for y': y'(x²-2xy) +2xy - y² = 0 
y' = (2xy-y²) / (x²-2xy) 
Check where defined: y' is not defined if the denominator becomes zero, i.e. 
x² - 2xy = 0 x(x - 2y) = 0 
This has formal solutions x=0 and y=x/2. Now we check whether these values are possible for the initially given definition of y: 
0^2*y - 0*y^2 =? 4 0 =? 4 
This is impossible, hence the function is not defined for 0, and we can disregard this. 
x^2*(x/2) - x(x/2)^2 =? 4 x^3/2 - x^3/4 = 4 x^3/4 = 4 x^3=16 x^3 = 16 x = cubicroot(16) 
This is a possible value for y, so we have a point where y is defined, but not y'. 
The solution to all of it is hence D - { cubicroot(16) }, where D is the domain of y (which nobody has asked for in this example :-). 
(Actually, the check whether 0 is in D is superfluous: If you write as solution D - { 0, cubicroot(16) }, this is also correct - only it so happens that 0 is not in D, so the set difference cannot take it out of there ...). 
If someone asks for that D, you have to solve the definition for y and find that domain - I don't know of any [general] way to find the domain without solving for the explicit function).
