Answer:

Area of trapezoid is $16ft^2$ .

Therefore, option 2nd is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given both the sides a=3 and b=5.

And height that is h=4

We will use the formula find the area of trapezoid is:

$\frac{a+b}{2}\cdot h$

Substitute the formula we get:

$\frac{3+5}{2}\cdot 4$

$\Rightarrow \frac{8}{2}\cdot 4$

$\Rightarrow 16$ .

Area of trapezoid is $16ft^2$ .

Therefore, option 2nd is correct.

Evaluate the following integral using trigonometric substitution.

wariber [46]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given the integral function $\int\limits {\sqrt{a^{2} -x^{2} } } \, dx$ , using trigonometric substitution, the substitution that will be most helpful in this case is substituting x as $asin \theta$ i.e $x = a sin\theta$ .

All integrals in the form $\int\limits {\sqrt{a^{2} -x^{2} } } \, dx$ are always evaluated using the substitute given where 'a' is any constant.

From the given integral, $\int\limits {7\sqrt{49-x^{2} } } \, dx = \int\limits {7\sqrt{7^{2} -x^{2} } } \, dx$ where a = 7 in this case.

The substitute will therefore be $x = 7 sin\theta$

2.) Given $x = 7 sin\theta$

$\frac{dx}{d \theta} = 7cos \theta$

cross multiplying

$dx = 7cos\theta d\theta$

3.) Rewriting the given integral using the substiution will result into;

$\int\limits {7\sqrt{49-x^{2} } } \, dx \\= \int\limits {7\sqrt{7^{2} -x^{2} } } \, dx\\= \int\limits {7\sqrt{7^{2} -(7sin\theta)^{2} } } \, dx\\= \int\limits {7\sqrt{7^{2} -49sin^{2}\theta } } \, dx\\= \int\limits {7\sqrt{49(1-sin^{2}\theta)} } } \, dx\\= \int\limits {7\sqrt{49(cos^{2}\theta)} } } \, dx\\since\ dx = 7cos\theta d\theta\\= \int\limits {7\sqrt{49(cos^{2}\theta)} } } \, 7cos\theta d\theta\\= \int\limits {7\{7(cos\theta)} }}} \, 7cos\theta d\theta\\$
