Which of the following statements about an ellipse is NOT true?

Mathematics
1 answer:
jeyben [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: (b) The focus of an ellipse is always located precisely at the center of the ellipse.

Step-by-step explanation:

An ellipse is defined as <em>"a closed curve with two axes of symmetry (major axis and minor axis) that results in cutting the surface of a cone by an oblique plane to the axis of symmetry with an angle greater than that of the generatrix with respect to the axis of revolution"</em>. That is why the ellipse is considered a conic figure.

To understand it better: an ellipse has two points on its major axis that are equidistant from the center , which are called foci,  being this distance constant. In addition, the eccentricity allows to know how far the foci are from the center of the ellipse.

Therefore, the statement that indicates an ellipse has only one focus located  precisely at the center is incorrect.

Find the value of x<br><br>m&lt;2 = 9x - 1​
jasenka [17]

Answer: x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom triangle that has a 40° is an isosceles triangle, therefore the other angle at the bottom right is also 40°. This leaves the top angle to be 100°.

180=40+40+x

180=80+x

x=100

Now, to find ∠2, you can tell it is a supplementary angle. Therefore, the 2 angles add up to 180°

180-100=∠2

80°=∠2

The problem states that ∠2 is 9x-1. We know that ∠2 is 80°. We can solve for x.

80=9x-1

81=9x

x=9
