Find the area of the right triangle. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Mathematics

Ne4ueva [31]2 years ago

Answer:

B - 150 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Obviously the first step is to find the missing measurement. To do this, you use the Pythagorean theorem; <em>a² + b² = c².</em>

In this case, let's label the the missing side A, the height B, and the hypotenuse C.

<em>X² + 15² = 25²</em>

Then you must figure out what 15² and 25².

<em>15² = 225</em>

<em>25² = 625</em>

The next step is to subtract 15² (225) from 25² (625), which will give you the result of X².

<em>625 - 225 = 400. </em>

Now you know X² = 400, you can find the square root of 400 to give you the length of the triangle.

<em>√400 = 20.</em>

<u>The missing length of the triangle is 20 yards. </u>

Now it's just a matter of finding the area by using the formula;

<em>A = </em>\frac{bh}{2}

Or,

<em>(20 × 15) ÷ 2 = 150.</em>

<u>And there's your answer. Don't forget to add the units.</u>

What is the correct classification for ∠QPS?
rewona [7]
∠QPS is part of the right angle, and it takes 90 - 21 degrees of it.
90 - 21 = 69°

Now take 69 and add 22, the rest of ∠QPS.
69 + 22 = 91

∠QPS is 91°, which is larger than a right angle, 90°, so that means it is an obtuse angle.

Three functions are given below: f(x), g(x), and h(x). Explain how to find the axis of symmetry for each function, and rank the
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

1. x=8 is the line of symmetry for f(x) = -4(x − 8)2 + 3

2. x=-2 is the line of symmetry of g(x) = 3x2 + 12x + 15

3. x=3 is the line of symmetry of h(x), shown in the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the line of symmetry of a vertical parabola (second degree polynomial), find the value of x that sets the squared term to zero.  This is a vertical line passing through the vertex of the second degree function.

1. f(x) = -4(x − 8)2 + 3

setting x=8 will give f(8) = 3, so x=8 is the line of symmetry

2. g(x) = 3x2 + 12x + 15

here, we need to complete the squares,

g(x) = 3x2 + 12x + 15

g(x) = 3(x^2+4x+5)

g(x) = 3(x^2 + 2(2x) +4 +1)

g(x) = 3((x+2)^2 +1)

So setting x=-2 will anihilate or cancel the squared term, therefore

x= -2 is the line of symmetry.

3. the curven shown in graph,

we see that the vertex is at x=3, so x=3 is the line of symmetry.

10. Explain why log328 is between 3 and 4.
maw [93]

Answer:

See explanation.

(Before continuing reading, I took the base to be 3. Please tell me if you didn't want the base to be 3.)

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume 3 is suppose to be the base. Let's list some values that can be written as 3 to some integer.

3^0=1

3^1=3

3^2=9

3^3=27

3^4=81

3^5=243

......

I could have also did negative integer powers, but this is all I really need to convince you that log_3(28) is between 3 and 4.

log_3(28) means the value x such that 3^x=28.

Since 28 is between 27 and 81 in my list above, that means 3^x is between 3^3 and 3^4. This means that x is a value between 3 and 4.

Michael received a grant to make a community garden. He makes a scale drawing of his vision for the garden. Michael's drawing sh
Mila [183]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram to the question attached.

From the diagram, we are given the following dimension for one of the beds;

Length = 16cm

Width = 8cm

If the scale from his drawing to the actual garden is 2 cm for every 1 ft, then on converting to feet;

2cm = 1ft

16cm = x fr

cross multiply

2x = 16

x = 8ft

Hence 16cm = 8ft (based on the scale)

Similarly:

2cm = 1ft

8cm = x fr

cross multiply

2x = 8

x = 4ft

Area of the garden bed (in feet) = Length * Width

Area of the garden bed = 8ft * 4ft

Area of the garden bed = 32ft²

Hence the actual area of one of the garden beds is 32ft². We need to find 2 things fir us to get the required answer. First is the length of the bed in feet and the second is the width of the bed in feet.
