The top of two poles of height's 20m and 14m are connected by the wire

Mathematics

Hatshy [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is;

10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

Height of the first pole = 20 m

Height of the second pole = 14 m

The angle the wire connected to their top makes with the horizontal = 30°

The vertical height subtended by the inclined wire, h = The difference in height between the two poles = 20 - 14 = 6 m.

Let the horizontal distance between the two poles = D

Therefore;

The horizontal length of the wire = D

From trigonometric ratios, we have;

tan(30 ^{\circ}) = \dfrac{h}{D} = \dfrac{6}{D}

Which gives;

D = \dfrac{6}{tan(30 ^{\circ}) }  = 10.39 \ m\approx 10 \ m

The correct option is 10 m.

Part 1.] Does the graph have even symmetry, odd symmetry, or neither?
QveST [7]
Part 1
The graph has even symmetry.  You can see that because it is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
Functions that have even symmetry have the following property:
f(x)=f(-x)
Part 2
To answer this we can simply check if the property we mentioned earlier holds for this function.
sin(\frac{\pi}{2})\ne sin(-\frac{\pi}{2})
We can see that sine does not have even symmetry. 
In fact, sine function has the following property: 
sin(x)=-sin(x)
This is called odd symetry.
Part 3
Take a look at the function that you attached in the picture. We know that function has even symmetry. 
Reflection over x-axis and <span>180° rotation around the origin would give us -f(x). We would not end up with the same function, so these two are out. 
</span><span>90° rotation around the origin would mean we swapped x <span>and y</span> so that one is out too. R</span><span>eflection over the line y=x is a property of functions that have an odd symmetry.
We are left with reflection around y-axis and, as mentioned before, this is the property of evenly symmetric functions.</span>
