Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given vertices of triangle:</u>
- A(1, 2), B(3, 4), C(5, 0)
<u>The centroid is found as the average of x- and y- coordinates of three vertices:</u>
- C = ((x₁ + x₂ + x₃)/3, (y₁ + y₂ + y₃)/3)
<u>Substitute the coordinates into formula:</u>
- C = ((1 + 3 + 5)/3, (2 + 4 + 0)/3) = (3, 2)
Correct choice is B
Answer:
13 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The shortest distance would be a straight line between the two points. This would be a hypotenuse of a right triangle
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to determine the length
a^2+b^2=c^2
5^2 +12^2 = c^2
25+144= c^2
169 = c^2
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(169) = sqrt(c^2)
13 = c
Area under ALL probability distribution curves is 1.0, because all possible outcomes are taken into account.
Answer:
2.2 metres squared
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the area of this trapezoid.
The area of a trapezoid is denoted by:
, where
and
are the parallel bases and h is the height
Here, we already know the lengths of the two bases; they are 0.9 metres and 2.3 metres. However, we need to find the length of the height.
Notice that one of the angles is marked 45 degrees. Let's draw a perpendicular line from top endpoint of the segment labelled 0.9 to the side labelled 2.3. We now have a 45-45-90 triangle with hypotenuse 2.0 metres. As one of such a triangle's properties, we can divide 2.0 by √2 to get the length of both legs:
2.0 ÷ √2 = √2 ≈ 1.414 ≈ 1.4
Thus, the height is h = 1.4 metres. Now plug all these values we know into the equation to find the area:


The answer is thus 2.2 metres squared.
