Answer:

Height of the sail is 9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sail is in the shape of a triangle and the formula of a triangle is

Area = (1/2)×Base×Height

Area of the sail has been given in the question and we have to calculate the height of the sail.

40.5 = (1/2)× Height× Height ( since base = height)

40.5×2 = height² = 81

height = √81 = 9 feet.

Both base and height of the sail is 40 1/2 feet.

A sail is triangular in shape. Finding the area of a triangle is multiplying its base and height and dividing the product by 2.

A = 1/2 bh

Area = 40 1/2 or 40.50 sq. ft
Since base and height are equal.
40.50 x 2 = 81
bh = 81
bh = 81 ÷ 2
b = 40 1/2 ft
h = 40 1/2 ft

f(x)=(x+a)/b

or bf(x)=x+a

let f(x)=y

by=x+a

flip x and y

bx=y+a

or y=bx-a

or f^{-1}(x)=bx-a

also g(x) is inverse of f(x)

bx-a=cx-d

so b=c,a=d

again let g(x)=y

y=cx-d

flip x and y

x=cy-d

cy=x+d

y=(x+d)/c

or g^{-1}(x)=(x+d)/c

also f(x) is inverse of g(x)

so (x+a)/b=(x+d)/c

so a=d,b=c

so in either case a=d,b=c

take b=c=1

a=d=2

f(x)=(x+2)/1=x+2

g(x)=1x-2=x-2

so f(x) and g(x) are two parallel lines f(x) with y- intercept=1 and slope 0

g(x) with y-intercept -2 and slope 0

if we take b=c=2,a=d=3

f(x)=(x+3)/2=x/2+3/2

g(x)=2x-3

here f(x) is of slope 1/2 and y-intercept 3/2

g(x) is of slope 2 and y intercept -3

part 3.

f(f(x))=g((x+a)/b)=c[(x+a)/b]-d=(c/b)(x+a)-d

The large piston in a hydraulic lift has an area of 2m^2. What force must be applied to the small piston with an area of .2m^2 i
Helen [10]

Answer:

147,000N

Step-by-step explanation:

A1= 2m^2

A2= 0.2m^2

F2= 14,700N

Required

F1, the applied force

Applying the formula

F1/A1= F2/A2

substute

F1/2=14700/0.2

2*14700= F1*0.2

29400= F1*0.2

F1= 29400/0.2

F1=147,000N

Hence, the applied force is 147,000N

The length of the side opposite B measures __ units
Sindrei [870]

For this case what we should do is observe the figure.

We note that the side opposite to vertex B is the AC side.

From here, we can see that the length of the AC segment is given by:

AC = 4

Therefore, the measurement on the side opposite to vertex B is equal to 4 units.

Answer:

The length of the side opposite B measures 4 units
