Answer:

DC = 10.93 cm ,  AC = 9.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From trigonometry;

⇒ Tan 60 = AB/BD

⇒AB = BD Tan 60 ( where BD = 4 cm )

⇒ AB = 6.93 cm

Also, AB=BC , therefore;

⇒ BC = 6.93 cm

⇒ Cos 60 = BD/AD

⇒ AD = BD/ Cos 60 = 4/Cos 60

⇒ AD = 8 cm

From Pythagoras theorem;

⇒ AC^{2} = AB^{2} + BC^{2} = (6.93)^{2} + (6.93)^{2}

⇒ AC = \sqrt{96.05} = 9.80 cm

⇒ DC = BD + BC = 4 + 6.93

⇒ DC = 10.93 cm

What are the foci of the hyperbola with equation 5y^2-4x^2=20?
shusha [124]
The foci of the hyperbola with equation 5y^2-4x^2=20 will be given as follows:
divide each term by 20
(5y^2)/20-(4x^2)/20=20/20
simplifying gives us:
y^2/4-x^2/5=1
This follows the standard form of the hyperbola
(y-k)²/a²-(x-h)²/b²=1
thus
a=2, b=√5 , k=0, h=0
Next we find c, the distance from the center to a focus.
√(a²+b²)
=√(2²+(√5)²)
=√(4+5)
=√9
=3
the focus of the hyperbola is found using formula:
(h.h+k)
substituting our values we get:
(0,3)
The second focus of the hyperbola can be found by subtracting c from k
(h,k-c)
substituting our values we obtain:
(0,-3)

Thus we have two foci
(0,3) and (0,-3)

Which is the best estimate of 174% of 141?
xeze [42]
245.34 is 174% of 141 :)
(1.74*141=245.34)

It helps to remember that "of" in math means to multiply. That's helped me for years.
