Okay to find the perpendicular bisector of a segment you first need to find the slope of the reference segment.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) in this case:
m=(-5-1)/(2-4)
m=-6/-2
m=3
Now for the the bisector line to be perpendicular its slope must be the negative reciprocal of the reference segment, mathematically:
m1*m2=-1 in this case:
3m=-1
m=-1/3
So now we know that the slope is -1/3 we need to find the midpoint of the line segment that we are bisecting. The midpoint is simply the average of the coordinates of the endpoints, mathematically:
mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2), in this case:
mp=((4+2)/2, (1-5)/2)
mp=(6/2, -4/2)
mp=(3,-2)
So our bisector must pass through the midpoint, or (3,-2) and have a slope of -1/3 so we can say:
y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept, and given what we know:
-2=(-1/3)3+b
-2=-3/3+b
-2=-1+b
-1=b
So now we have the complete equation of the perpendicular bisector...
y=-x/3-1 or more neatly in my opinion :P
y=(-x-3)/3
Answer: 1.25 square feet
This converts to the improper fraction 5/4
===========================================================
Explanation:
The area of the triangle on the left is base*height/2 = 0.5*2/2 = 0.5 square feet. Note that 1/2 = 0.5
The area of the triangle on the right side is base*height/2 = 0.2*3/2 = 0.75 square feet. This converts to the fraction 3/4
Add up the two results: 0.5+0.75 = 1.25 square feet
-----------
If you need the answer as an improper fraction, then,
1.25 = 1 + 0.25
1.25 = 1 + 1/4
1.25 = 4/4 + 1/4
1.25 = (4+1)/4
1.25 = 5/4
Easy!
You take the total number of students (55) then you remove the people that only like math and remove the people that only like English and remove the people that like none of them and what’s left is how many like both subjects.
55-15-18-5=17 students that like both subjects!
Answer:
The answer you chose is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 33.85 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
Use trigonometry, tan equation
You are give the tan angle and adjacent side, you need to find the opposite side so
O
T A
Tan(72)= x/11
x= tan(72) x 11
x= 33.85
