This is a good one, 

So all you need to do is look directly across from each line, angle 3 is 65 degrees because its directly across from 65 degrees.

If the 4th and 7th terms of a GP are 250 and 31250 respectively. Find the two possible values of a and r
Over [174]

Answer:

a = 2, r = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Nth term of a GP = a×r^(n-1)

Where 'a' is the first term and 'r' is the common ratio

4th term = a×r^3 = 250

r^3 = 250/a

7th term = a×r^6 = 31250

a×r^6 = 31250

a×(r^3)^2 = 31250

a×(250/a)^2 = 31250

a×(62500/a^2) = 31250

62500/a = 31250

a = 62500/31250 = 2

a = 2

since r^3 = 250/a,

r^3 = 250/2 = 125

r = (125)^(1/3)

r = 5

How do you do this?
ELEN [110]
Use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c².

a and b are the legs of the right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse.

2) 5² + b² = 6²
    25 + b² = 36
    b² = 11
    b = 3.3 cm

3) 7² + b² = 8²
    49 + b² = 64
    b² = 15
    b = 3.9 cm

4) a² + 5² = 13²
     a² + 25 = 169
     a² = 144
     a = 12 cm
