What is the orthocenter of a triangle with vertices A(−3,−2)A(−3,−2), B(−2,2)B(−2,2), and C(2,−2)C(2,−2)?

A(−3,−2), B(−2,2), C(2,−2)

The orthocenter is the meet of the altitudes. We see AC is parallel to the x axis so the perpendicular x=-2 is the altitude through B.

Between A and B we have slope (2 - -2)/(-2 - -3) = 4 so perpendicular slope -1/4 through C(2,-2):

y+2 = -\frac 1 4 (x - 2)

For the y coordinate of the orthocenter we substitute in x=-2.

y+2 = -\frac 1 4(-2 - 2) = 1

y = -1

So the orthocenter is (x,y)=(-2,-1)

Answer: (-2,-1)

I don’t understand constant rates of change help!
REY [17]

Answer:

The (constant) rate of change with respect to the variable x of a linear function y = f(x) is the slope of its graph. If x and f have units in Definition 2, then the units of the rate of change are those of f divided by those of x.

HELP PLEASE NEED THIS DONE ASAP
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

I did learn this before I'm not sure, but I think the answer is X x 10 = Y because on the chart for example X= 1 and Y= 10 so whatever number is on Y is basically X multiplied by 10. I hope this helps!

The exact value of cos5pi/12 is:​
jonny [76]

Step 1: Convert \frac{5\pi }{12}, which is in radians into degrees. To convert it multiply by \frac{180}{\pi }

\frac{5\pi }{12} =\frac{180}{\pi }

900/12

75

Step 2: 75 degrees isn't on the unit circle but 45 degrees and 30 degrees is. Since 45 + 30 = 75 you can use the cosine of 45 and 30 to find the exact value

cos45 = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}

cos30 =\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}

Step 3: Add the cos45 and cos30 to get cos5pi/12

\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} +\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}}{2}

Hope this helped!

The three inside angles (A,B and C) of a right-angled triangle are in the ratio 7:18:11. Th smallest angle is 35. Work out angle
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

<A = 35degrees

<B =90degrees

<C = 55degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratios of a triangle as 7:18:11

Total ratio = 7+18+11

Total ratio = 36

Since the smallest angle is 35degrees, hence <A = 35degrees

Get angle B;

<B = 18/36 * 180 (sum of angle in a triangle is 180degrees)

<B = 1/2 * 180

<B = 90degrees

Get angle C;

<C = 11/36 * 180

<C = 11 * 5

<C = 55degrees

Hence the value of A, B and C are 35, 90 and 55 degrees repectively
