Explanation:
Imagine we have a point
P
with Rectangular (also called Cartesian) coordinates
(
x
,
y
)
and Polar coordinates
(
r
,
θ
)
.
The following diagram will help us visualise the situation better:

We can see that a right triangle is formed with sides
x
,
y
and
r
, as well as an angle
θ
.
We have to find the relation between the Cartesian and Polar coordinates, respectively.
By Pythagora's theorem, we get the result
r
2
=
x
2
+
y

The only properties we can say about
θ
are its trigonometric functions:
sin
θ
=
y
/
r
⇒
y
=
r
sin
θ
cos
θ
=
x
/
r
⇒
x

So we have the following relations:

Answer:
x=14
PN=MN=85
Step-by-step explanation:
It is an isosceles triangle because PQ=MQ and QN is perpendicular to PM. PN=MN
8x-27=6x+1
2x=28
x=14
PN=MN=85
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the triangles are similar because they are proportional. the 3 sides of 2 triangles fall in a particular table.
Answer:
3/52
Step-by-step explanation:
The picture card are j,q k and there are 4 of each so there are 12 picture cards
P( picture card) = picture card/ total
12/52 = 3/13
Then replace the card
There are 13 clubs
P( club) = club/ total
13/52 = 1/4
P(picture,replace,club) = 3/13*1/4 = 3/52
The solution is at what point the two lines intersect.
Plug y into the other equation to get: 5x-4(5-3x)=-3
Multiply it out: 5x+12x-20=-3
Combine like terms and add 20 to both sides: 17x=17
Divide both sides by 17: x=1
Now plug the x value back into any equation to get the y value.
So you get y=5-3(1) --> y=2
The solution is (1, 2)
