Answer:

1.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- We will use the table given to determine the standard deviation of random variable x. From descriptive statistics we have the following formula for standard deviation (s.d) :

s.d (x) = sqrt ( Var(x) )

- The formula for Variance ( Var (x) ) is also taken from descriptive statistics as follows:

$Var(X) = E ( X^2) + [ E(X) ] ^2$

- Where,

$E ( X^2) = 0^2*0.15 + 1^2*0.07 + 2^2*0.19 + 3^2*0.09 + 4^2*0.16 + 5^2*0.23 +6^2*0.11 \\\\E ( X^2) = 13.91 \\\\$

$E(X) = 0*0.15\:+\:1*0.07\:+\:2*0.19\:+\:3\cdot \:0.09\:+\:4\cdot \:0.16\:+\:5\cdot \:0.23\:+6\cdot \:0.11\\\\E(X) = 3.17\\\\(E(X))^2 = 10.0489$

- So the variance is:

Var ( X ) = 13.91 - 10.0489 = 3.8611

s.d (x) = √3.8611 = 1.96

Triangle ABC and DEF are right triangles, as shown. Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF. which ratios are equal to sin C?

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

First option and Fourth option.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this exercise you need to use the following Trigonometric Identity:

$sin\alpha=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

In this case you know that:

$\alpha =C$

Since triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF:

$\angle C=\angle F$

Let's begin with the triangle ABC.

You can identify that:

$opposite=AB\\hypotenuse=AC$

Then, substituing values, you get:

$sinC=\frac{AB}{AC}$

In triangle DEF, you know that:

$opposite=DE\\hypotenuse=DF$

So, substituing values, you get:

$sinF=sinC=\frac{DE}{DF}$

•given ABCD is a kite, check every box that must be true

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A kite is a quadrilateral made up of two isosceles triangles. A kite does not have any parallel side, but has two pairs of equal adjacent sides. All four sides are not congruent, only two pairs of consecutive sides are congruent.

The vertices of a kite are right angles. The diagonals bisect each other at right angles ( that is they are perpendicular). Therefore the following are true:

1) two pairs of consecutive sides are congruent

2) The diagonals are perpendicular

3) The diagonals bisect each other.

Point A= (3,6), B = (5,0), C= (-2,-4) D = (-3,4)

$AB=\sqrt{(0-6)^2+(5-3)^2}=\sqrt{40} \\AD=\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(-3-3)^2}=\sqrt{40}\\ BC=\sqrt{(-4-0)^2+(-2-5)^2}=\sqrt{65}\\ DC=\sqrt{(4-(-4)^2)+(-3-(-2))^2}=\sqrt{65}$

AB=AD, BC = BC.

This is a kite since two pairs of consecutive sides are congruent
