Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

The general equation of a horizontal ellipse is

(x-h)2/a2 + (y-k)2/b2 = 1, at center (h,k) while a = semi-major axis, b = semi-minor axis. These are related through the distance of the focus from the center,c. a2 = b2 + c2.

If you draw the points on a coordinate plane, the center of the ellipse is at (0,0), so h and k equals 0. Then, the minor axis (2b) spans from 8 to -8 of the y-axis. This is equal to 16 units. Hence,

2b = 16
b = 8
b^2 = 64

The distance between the two foci is 2c. Thus,

2c = 12
c = 6
c^2 = 36

Then, a2 = 64 + 36 = 100. Substituting to the general equation:

x^2/100 + y^2/64 = 1

If the measure of an exterior angle drawn at vertex M

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that measure of an exterior angle which are drawn at vertex M=x

We have to find the value of measurement of angle L+measurement of angle N.

Exterior angle:It is defined as that angle of triangle which is formed by the one side of triangle and the extension of an adjacent side of triangle. The measure of exterior angle is equal to sum of measures of two non-adjacent interior angles of a triangle.

Angle L and angle N are two non-adjacent angles of a given triangle LMN.

By definition of exterior angle

x=Measure of angle L+Measure of angle N

1.a sphere with a radius of three units

By definition, the volume of a sphere is:
$V = ( \frac{4}{3} ) (\pi) (r ^ 3)
$
Substituting values we have:
$V=(\frac{4}{3})(\pi)(3^3)$
Rewriting we have:
$V = (4) (\pi) (3 ^ 2)

V = (4) (\pi) (9)

V = 36\pi$

2.a cone with a diameter of twelve units and a height of three units

By definition, the volume of a cone is given by:
$V = \frac{1}{3} (\pi) (r ^ 2) (h)
$
Substituting values we have:
$V = \frac{1}{3} (\pi) ((\frac{12}{2}) ^ 2) (3)
$
Rewriting we have:
$V = (\pi) (6 ^ 2)

V = 36\pi$
