The equation of the line passes through (2, -1) and (4, 5) is -3x + y = - 7 So, option 2 is correct.

Solution:

Given, two points are (2, -1) and (4, 5)

We have to find that a line that passes through the given two points.

First let us find the slope of the line that passes through given two points.

So, slope of line "m" is given as:

$\mathrm{m}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$\text { where, }\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right) \text { and }\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right) \text { are two points on line. }$

So slope of our line = $\frac{5-(-1)}{4-2}=\frac{5+1}{2}=3$

Now, let us find the line equation using point slope form:

$y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right) \text { where } m \text { is slope and }\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right) \text { is point on the line. }$

Then equation of line is,

y – 5 = 3(x – 4)

y – 5 = 3x – 12

-3x + y = 5 – 12

-3x + y = -7

Hence, the line equation is -3x + y = - 7 so, option 2 is correct.

Let and be differentiable vector fields and let a and b be arbitrary real constants. Verify the following identities.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The given identities are verified by using operations of the del operator such as divergence and curl of the given vectors.

<h3>What are the divergence and curl of a vector field?</h3>

The del operator is used for finding the divergence and the curl of a vector field.

The del operator is given by

$\nabla=\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}$

Consider a vector field $F=x\^i+y\^j+z\^k$

Then the divergence of the vector F is,

div F = $\nabla.F$ = $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).(x\^i+y\^j+z\^k)$

and the curl of the vector F is,

curl F = $\nabla\times F$ = $\^i(\frac{\partial Fz}{\partial y}- \frac{\partial Fy}{\partial z})+\^j(\frac{\partial Fx}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial Fz}{\partial x})+\^k(\frac{\partial Fy}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial Fx}{\partial y})$

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The given vector fields are:

$F1 = M\^i + N\^j + P\^k$ and $F2 = Q\^i + R\^j + S\^k$

1) Verifying the identity: $\nabla.(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2$

Consider L.H.S

⇒ $\nabla.(aF1+bF2)$

⇒ $\nabla.(a(M\^i + N\^j + P\^k) + b(Q\^i + R\^j + S\^k))$

⇒ $\nabla.((aM+bQ)\^i+(aN+bR)\^j+(aP+bS)\^k)$

⇒ $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).((aM+bQ)\^i+(aN+bR)\^j+(aP+bS)\^k)$

Applying the dot product between these two vectors,

⇒ $\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial x}+ \frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial z}$ ...(1)

Consider R.H.S

⇒ $a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2$

So,

$\nabla.F1=(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).(M\^i + N\^j + P\^k)$

⇒ $\nabla.F1=\frac{\partial M}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial N}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial P}{\partial z}$

$\nabla.F2=(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).(Q\^i + R\^j + S\^k)$

⇒ $\nabla.F1=\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial R}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial S}{\partial z}$

Then,

$a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2=a(\frac{\partial M}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial N}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial P}{\partial z})+b(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial R}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial S}{\partial z})$

⇒ $\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial x}+ \frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial z}$ ...(2)

From (1) and (2),

$\nabla.(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2$

2) Verifying the identity: $\nabla\times(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$

Consider L.H.S

⇒ $\nabla\times(aF1+bF2)$

⇒ $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z})\times(a(M\^i+N\^j+P\^k)+b(Q\^i+R\^j+S\^k))$

⇒ $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z})\times ((aM+bQ)\^i+(aN+bR)\^j+(aP+bS)\^k)$

Applying the cross product,

$\^i(\^k\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial y}- \^j\frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial z})+\^j(\^i\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial z}-\^k\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial x})+\^k(\^j\frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial x}-\^i\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial y})$ ...(3)

Consider R.H.S,

⇒ $a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$

So,

$a\nabla\times F1=a(\nabla\times (M\^i+N\^j+P\^k))$

⇒ $\^i(\frac{\partial aP\^k}{\partial y}- \frac{\partial aN\^j}{\partial z})+\^j(\frac{\partial aM\^i}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial aP\^k}{\partial x})+\^k(\frac{\partial aN\^j}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial aM\^i}{\partial y})$

$a\nabla\times F2=b(\nabla\times (Q\^i+R\^j+S\^k))$

⇒ $\^i(\frac{\partial bS\^k}{\partial y}- \frac{\partial bR\^j}{\partial z})+\^j(\frac{\partial bQ\^i}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial bS\^k}{\partial x})+\^k(\frac{\partial bR\^j}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial bQ\^i}{\partial y})$

Then,

$a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$ =

...(4)

Thus, from (3) and (4),

$\nabla\times(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$

What is the area of the regular pentagon below?

wolverine [178]

Answer:

21yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

join the centre to all the vertex,

since this figure is of regular pentagon, it's will form 5 equal triangle of equal area!

now area of one such triangle is

1/2 ×base ×height

=1/2 ×3.5x2.4 (yd^2)

=4.2 yd^2

now the pentagon is sum of 5 such equal triangle,so it's are will be

5×4.2 (yd^2)

=21 yd^2

✌️:)
