In the diagram below, ABC - DEC. What is the value of x? A 5 B. 3 C. 6 D. 4​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{BC}{EC} = \frac{AC}{DC}, substituting values

\frac{21}{7} = \frac{24-x}{x} ( cross- multiply )

21x = 7(24 - x) ← distribute

21x = 168 - 7x ( add 7x to both sides )

28x = 168 ( divide both sides by 28 )

x = 6 → C

QUESTION 1
Kitty [74]

It's difficult to make out what the force and displacement vectors are supposed to be, so I'll generalize.

Let <em>θ</em> be the angle between the force vector <em>F</em> and the displacement vector <em>r</em>. The work <em>W</em> done by <em>F</em> in the direction of <em>r</em> is

<em>W</em> = <em>F</em> • <em>r</em> cos(<em>θ</em>)

The cosine of the angle between the vectors can be obtained from the dot product identity,

<em>a</em> • <em>b</em> = ||<em>a</em>|| ||<em>b</em>|| cos(<em>θ</em>)   ==>   cos(<em>θ</em>) = (<em>a</em> • <em>b</em>) / (||<em>a</em>|| ||<em>b</em>||)

so that

<em>W</em> = (<em>F</em> • <em>r</em>)² / (||<em>F</em>|| ||<em>r</em>||)

For instance, if <em>F</em> = 3<em>i</em> + <em>j</em> + <em>k</em> and <em>r</em> = 7<em>i</em> - 7<em>j</em> - <em>k</em> (which is my closest guess to the given vectors' components), then the work done by <em>F</em> along <em>r</em> is

<em>W</em> = ((3<em>i</em> + <em>j</em> + <em>k</em>) • (7<em>i</em> - 7<em>j</em> - <em>k</em>))² / (√(3² + 1² + 1²) √(7² + (-7)² + (-1)²))

==>   <em>W</em> ≈ 5.12 J

(assuming <em>F</em> and <em>r</em> are measured in Newtons (N) and meters (m), respectively).
