<h3>Answer:</h3>
(x, y) ≈ (1.49021612010, 1.22074408461)
<h3>Explanation:</h3>This is best solved graphically or by some other machine method. The approximate solution (x=1.49, y=1.221) can be iterated by any of several approaches to refine the values to the ones given above. The values above were obtained using Newton's method iteration.
_____
Setting the y-values equal and squaring both sides of the equation gives ...
... √x = x² -1
... x = (x² -1)² = x⁴ -2x² +1 . . . . . square both sides
... x⁴ -2x² -x +1 = 0 . . . . . polynomial equation in standard form.
By Descarte's rule of signs, we know there are two positive real roots to this equation. From the graph, we know the other two roots are complex. The second positive real root is extraneous, corresponding to the negative branch of the square root function.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The picture of the question in the attached figure
we know that
The triangle ABD is an isosceles triangle
because
AB=BD
The segment BM is a perpendicular bisector segment AD
so
<em>In the right triangle ABM</em>
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem
we have
substitute
-----> equation A
<em>In the right triangle BMC</em>
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem
we have
substitute
----> equation B
equate equation A and equation B
solve for x
Simplify
<em>Find the length of DC</em>
substitute the given values
