Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

[ 17, + ∞ ] are used to indicate that the values inside are equal to the 2 limits, that is that x can equal 17 or + ∞

However, this as not the case as x > 17 indicates x is greater than 17 but not equal to it. This is also true for + ∞

To represent this situation parenthesis is used, that is

(17, + ∞ )

Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin(theta) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

$\cos(theta) = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

$\tan(theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

hypotenuse = a

opposite = 2√3

adjacent = b

theta = 60°

the best formula to use is the first formula cause we have all the values to substitute in it in order to find the value of a

$\sin(60) = \frac{2 \sqrt{3} }{a}$

$\frac{2 \sqrt{3} }{ \sin(60) } = a$

$4 = a$

$a = 4$

RT has the endpoints (0, 2) and (4, 2). What is its midpoint?

Nimfa-mama [501]

R=(0,2), T=(4,2)
vector:
v=(4-0,2-2)=(4,0)
v/2=(2,0)

(0,2)+v/2=(2,2)

so (2,2) is the midpoint
