Step-by-step explanation:

A baseball field is in the shape of a square (or diamond).  Home plate and second base are opposite corners of each other.  So the distance is equal to the diagonal of the square.

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the diagonal, or use properties of a 45-45-90 triangle.

Using Pythagorean theorem:

c² = a² + b²

c² = (90 ft)² + (90 ft)²

c = 90√2 ft

c ≈ 127 ft

Answer:

The volume of the triangular pyramid is (1/3) of the volume of the triangular prism

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume formulas:

Triangular Pyramid Volume = T = (1/3)*h * (base area)

Triangular Prism Volume = P = h * (base area)

P = 3 * T

and T = (1/3)* P

URGENT! if ABCD is dilated by a factor of 2, the coordinate of A' would be:
koban [17]

After dilating the quadrilateral ABCD by a factor of 2 and with respect to the origin, the point A(x, y) = (-3, -1) is transformed into the point A'(x, y) = (-9, -3).

<h3>How to determine the coordinates of an image after applying a rigid transformation</h3>

First of all, dilation is a type of <em>rigid</em> transformation. <em>Rigid</em> transformations are transformations applied on <em>geometric</em> loci such that the <em>Euclidean</em> distance at every point of the construction is conserved. Vectorially speaking, the dilation is expressed by the following formula:

A'(x, y) = A(x, y) + k · [A(x, y) - O(x, y)]     (1)

Where:

  • A(x, y) - Original point
  • O(x, y) - Center of dilation
  • A'(x, y) - Resulting point
  • k - Dilation factor

If we know that A(x, y) = (-3, -1), k = 2 and O(x, y) = (0, 0), then the coordinates of A' are:

A'(x, y) = (-3, -1) + 2 · [(-3, -1) - (0, 0)]

A'(x, y) = (-3, -1) + (-6, -2)

A'(x, y) = (-9, -3)

After dilating the quadrilateral ABCD by a factor of 2 and with respect to the origin, the point A(x, y) = (-3, -1) is transformed into the point A'(x, y) = (-9, -3).

Answer:

We know that the angle which lineer and divided by |AB| equal to 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

if 130° look at the 2x+260 we can say that 2x+260=260° so X equal to Zero (0)
