Answer:

Distance of the point from its image = 8.56 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Co-ordinates of point is (-2, 3,-4)

Let's say

x_1\ =\ -2

y_1\ =\ 3

z_1\ =\ -4

Distance is measure across the line

\dfrac{x+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2y+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3z+4}{5}

So, we can write

\dfrac{x-x_1+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2(y-y_1)+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3(z-z_1)+4}{5}\ =\ k

=>\ \dfrac{x-(-2)+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2(y-3)+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3(z-(-4))+4}{5}\ =\ k

=>\ \dfrac{x+4}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2y-3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3z+16}{5}\ =\ k

=>\ x\ =\ 3k-4,\ y\ =\ \dfrac{4k+3}{2},\ z\ =\ \dfrac{5k-16}{3}

Since, the equation of plane is given by

x+y+z=3

The point which intersect the point will satisfy the equation of plane.

So, we can write

3k-4+\dfrac{4k+3}{2}+\dfrac{5k-16}{3}\ =\ 3

=>6(3k-4)+3(4k+3)+2(5k-16)\ =\ 18

=>18k-24+12k+9+10k-32\ =\ 18

=>\ k\ =\dfrac{13}{8}

So,

x\ =\ 3k-4

   =\ 3\times \dfrac{13}{8}-4

   =\ \dfrac{7}{4}

y\ =\ \dfrac{4k+3}{2}

   =\ \dfrac{4\times \dfrac{13}{8}+3}{2}

   =\ \dfrac{19}{4}

z\ =\ \dfrac{5k-16}{3}

  =\ \dfrac{5\times \dfrac{13}{8}-16}{3}

   =\ \dfrac{-21}{8}

Now, the distance of point from the plane is given by,

d\ =\ \sqrt{(x-x_1)^2+(y-y_1)^2+(z-z_1)^2}

   =\ \sqrt{(-2-\dfrac{7}{4})^2+(3-\dfrac{19}{4})^2+(-4+\dfrac{21}{8})^2}

   =\ \sqrt{(\dfrac{-15}{4})^2+(\dfrac{-7}{4})^2+(\dfrac{9}{8})^2}

   =\ \sqrt{\dfrac{225}{16}+\dfrac{49}{16}+\dfrac{81}{64}}

   =\ \sqrt{\dfrac{1177}{64}}

   =\ 4.28

So, the distance of the point from its image can be given by,

D = 2d = 2 x 4.28

            = 8.56 unit

So, the distance of a point from it's image is 8.56 units.

What’s the answer for IJG
Flauer [41]

Answer:

<u>∠IJG = 123° </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB║CD, EF ║GH, we can use the Corresponding Angles Postulate, for finding the following congruent angles:

∠IKL ≅ ∠EIJ and  ∠EIJ  ≅ ∠GJA

∠GJA and ∠IJG are supplementary, therefore:

∠GJA + ∠IJG = 180°

∠IJG = 180° - 57°

<u>∠IJG = 123°</u>

To find the extreme values of a function​ f(x,y) on a curve xequals​x(t), yequals​y(t), treat f as a function of the single vari
pychu [463]

Answer:

Absolute maximum is 2  

Absolute minimum at -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parametric functions are:

x=2\cos t,y=2\sin t

By the chain rule:

f'(t)=\frac{\frac{dy}{dt} }{\frac{dx}{dt} }

\frac{df}{dt} =\frac{2 \cos t}{-2\sin t} =-\cot(t)

At fixed points, f'(t)=0

\implies -\cot (t)=0

This gives t=\frac{\pi}{2} ,\frac{3\pi}{2} on 0\le t\le 2\pi

This implies that the extreme points are (2\cos \frac{\pi}{2}, 2\sin \frac{\pi}{2})=(0,2) and (2\cos \frac{3\pi}{2}, 2\sin \frac{3\pi}{2})=(0,-2)

By eliminating the parameter, we have x^2+y^2=4

This is a circle with radius 2, centered at the origin.

Hence (0,2) is an absolute maximum ,at t=\frac{\pi}{2} and (0,-2) is an absolute minimum at  t=\frac{3\pi}{2}

Evaluate this expression <br> (-7--9)*(8+2)
Marizza181 [45]
Before we get started, it is good to remember PEMDAS - the acronym that tells you the order to carry out equations.

P = parentheses
E = exponents
M = multiplication
D = division
A = addition
S = subtraction

Knowing this, we should start by doing the equations <em>within </em>each parentheses.
 
(-7 - -9) *(8 + 2)
 (2) *(10)

So we did the addition and subtraction pieces within each group leaving us with the above equation. Now let's multiply:

(2)*(10) = 20

20 is the answer.
