Answer:

24(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Complete Question:</u>

A monkey is swinging from a tree. On the first swing, she passes through an arc whose length is 24 m. With each swing, she travels along an arc that is half as long as the arc of the previous swing. Which expression gives the total length the monkey swings in her first n swings?

<u>Solution:</u>

First Swing:

24 m

Second Swing:

Half of first, so

24(1/2)

Third Swing:

Half of second, so:

24(1/2)(1/2)

Fourth Swing:

24(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)

So we see the general formula as:

24(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}

<u>Note:</u> n -1 because (1/2) plays a role from second swing, which is n - 1

where n is the number of swings

Find the area pf a trapezoid with a base of 26.7 ft , a height of 15.4 and top of 9.9 ft
evablogger [386]
Hello!

To find the area of the trapezoid, you use the formula A=1/2h(a+b), where a and b represent the two base lengths.

Since we already know the two bases and the height, we can just plug them into the equation to find the area.

A=1/2·15.4(26.7+9.9)
A=1/2·15.4(36.6)
A=1/2·563.64
A=281.82

The area is 281.82 ft².

I hope this helps!

Geometry Proof - Thanks in advance for the help!

Answer:

Using reflexive property (for side), and the transversals of the parallel lines, we can prove the two triangles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Since AB and DC are parallel and AC is intersecting in the middle, you can make out two pairs of alternate interior angles<em>.</em> These angle pairs are congruent because of the alternate interior angles theorem. The two pairs of congruent angles are: ∠DAC ≅ ∠BCA, and ∠BAC ≅ ∠DCA.
  • With the reflexive property, we know side AC ≅ AC.
  • Using Angle-Side-Angle theorem, we can prove ΔABC ≅ ΔCDA.
