Using the technique in the model above, find the missing sides in this 30°-60°-90° right triangle. Hypotenuse = 12 Long =

When using the 30° - 60° - 90° method, the side lengths will always be x and x√3 for the legs and 2x for the hypotenuse.

Because the hypotenuse is 12, the equation is:
2x = 12

And now you find x to get the length of the shortest leg.
2x = 12
x = 6

Now that we know the length of x, you just add √3 in order to find the longest leg.

Therefore, the length of the longest leg would be 6√3.

What is the recursive rule for the sequence 2, -1, 1/2 , -1/4

Helga [31]

Answer:

$a_n=\frac{-1}{2}a_{n-1}$

$a_1=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive rule is a term defined in terms of other terms in the sequence.

The is a geometric sequence because it has a common ratio.

The common ratio can be found by dividing a term by previous term.

For example, all of these are equal:

$\frac{-1}{2}$

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{-1}$

$\frac{\frac{-1}{4}}{\frac{1}{2}}$

They are all equal to $\frac{-1}{2}$ .

So we are saying:

$\frac{\text{term}}{\text{previous term}}}=\frac{-1}{2}$

More formally:

$\frac{a_n}{a_{n-1}}=\frac{-1}{2}$ .

Multiply both sides by $a_{n-1}$ :

$a_n=\frac{-1}{2}a_{n-1}$

When doing recursive form, you need to state a term of the sequence (or more depending on the recursive form you have).

So the first term is 2.

So the full thing for the answer is:

$a_n=\frac{-1}{2}a_{n-1}$

$a_1=2$
