Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola is defined using both a directrix and a focus.

To justify this, let me take a quote from Varsity Tutors (all credit of this quote goes to them) : “A parabola is set of all points in a plane which are an equal distance away from a given point and given line. The point is called the focus of the parabola and the line is called the directrix.”

Hope this helps! :)

Answer: Hi!

To find the answer for question 24, we would first find the square root of 20 and 5. The square root of 20 is about 4.47 (I used a calculator for convenience) and the square root of 5 is about 2.24. Now we need to add these:

4.47 + 2.24 = 6.71

Now we divide 30 by this:

30/6.71 = 4.47

Now, we'll evaluate the answer choices.

a) is equal to 1.49

b) is equal to 13.4

c) is equal to 4.47

d) is equal to 26.88

The answer choice that is correct is c, because it is what we got for the problem that we were supposed to solve in the beginning.

Hope this helps!

From the top of a tower, an object which is 97 m away from the base of the tower, is at a 37° angle of depression.

<h3>Answer: 73</h3>

==================================================

Work Shown:

Check out the diagram below. Note the pair of alternate interior angles that are congruent (each 37 degrees). Then focus on triangle ABC. With the reference angle being at A, this means we use the tangent function because BC = x is the opposite side and AB = 97 is the adjacent side.

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(A) = BC/AB

tan(37) = x/97

97*tan(37) = x

x = 97*tan(37)

x = 73.094742859971

For the last step, you'll need a calculator that can handle trig functions. Make sure the calculator is in degree mode. The result here is approximate. This rounds to 73 when rounding to the nearest whole number.
