Find two unit vectos that are orthogonal to both [0,1,2] and [1,-2,3]

Answer:

Let the vectors be

a = [0, 1, 2] and

b = [1, -2, 3]

( 1 ) The cross product of a and b (a x b) is the vector that is perpendicular (orthogonal) to a and b.

Let the cross product be another vector c.

To find the cross product (c) of a and b, we have

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\0&1&2\\1&-2&3\end{array}\right]

c = i(3 + 4) - j(0 - 2) + k(0 - 1)

c = 7i + 2j - k

c = [7, 2, -1]

( 2 ) Convert the orthogonal vector (c) to a unit vector using the formula:

c / | c |

Where | c | = √ (7)² + (2)² + (-1)²  = 3√6

Therefore, the unit vector is

\frac{[7,2,-1]}{3\sqrt{6} }

or

[ \frac{7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

The other unit vector which is also orthogonal to a and b is calculated by multiplying the first unit vector by -1. The result is as follows:

[ \frac{-7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

In conclusion, the two unit vectors are;

[ \frac{7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

and

[ \frac{-7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

____ [38]

Answer:

8.727

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the below edge, d = 15 cm, and the height, h = 12.2 cm, we will use the Pythagorean  theorem to find the distance r.

d^2=r^2+h^2

(15)^2 = r^2+(12.2)^2

r^2 = (15)^2-(12.2)^2=225-148.84=76.16

r=\sqrt{76.16}=8.727

A cube has side length x. One side of the cube is increased by 4 inches, and another side is doubled. The volume of the new rect
AfilCa [17]

Let

x-------> the length side  of the original cube

we have

2x^{3} +8x=450\\2x^{3}=450-8x

Divide by 2 both sides

x^{3}=225-4x

The system of equations is equal to

y=x^{3} --------> equation 1

y=225-4x --------> equation 2

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure  

we know that

the solution of the system of equations is the intersection both graphs

therefore

the solution is

x=5.86\ in

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

5.86\ inches
