Captain Jessica has a ship, the H.M.S. Khan. The ship is two furlongs from the dread pirate Michael and his merciless band of th

ieves.
The captain has a probability 1/2 of hitting the pirate ship. The pirate only has one good Eye, so he hits the captain’s ship with probability 1/6.
If both fire the cannons at the same time, what is the probability that both the pirate and the captain hit each other’s ship?

Show that if u+v and u-v are orthognal, then the vectors u and v must have the same length.
pashok25 [27]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

u+ v and u-v are orthogonal

We have to prove that u and v must have the same length.

When two vector a and b are orthogonal then

a\cdot b=0

By using the property

(u+v)\cdot (u-v)=0

We know that

(a+b)\cdot (a-b)=\mid a\mid^2-\mid b\mid^2

\mid u\mid ^2-\mid v\mid^2=0

\mid u\mid^2=\mid v\mid^2

Magnitude is always positive

When power of base on both sides are equal then base will be equal

Therefore,

\mid u\mid=\mid v\mid

Hence, the length of vectors u and v must have the same length.

Use the figure below to answer the questions.
Archy [21]

Answer:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The name of the 3D shape is Prism

b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total surface area:

S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h

c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The surface area of the figure is 144 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The 3D shape has two congruent and parallel faces (triangles) and the other faces are parallelograms, then the 3D shape is a prism


b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total Surface area:

S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h

where:

Area of the base of the prism: Ab

Perimeter of the base: Pb

Height of the prism: h


c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The base of the prism is a triangle. Then to calculate the area of the base, we must use the formula to calculate the area of a triangle:

A_{b}=\frac{bh}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{(4 cm)(3 cm)}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{12cm^{2} }{2}\\ A_{b}=6cm^{2}

The perimeter of the base is the perimeter of the triangle, equal to the sum of the sides of the triangle:

P_{b}=4cm+3cm+5cm\\ P_{b}=12cm

h: Height of the prism is the distance between the bases of the prism (the triangle), then h=11 cm

Then, replacing in the formula the known values:

S=2(6 cm^{2})+(12 cm)(11 cm)\\ S=12 cm^{2}+132 cm^{2}\\ S=144 cm^{2}
