Answer:

The length of the line segment AC is equal to 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle above is an isosceles triangle, In an Isosceles triangle the two angles; B and C are the same, hence the two sides; AB and AC are also the same.

AB=2x    and AC= 3x - 7

AB = AC

which implies;

2x = 3x - 7

subtract 3x from both-side of the equation

2x - 3x = 3x -3x -7

-x = -7

Multiply through by -1

x = 7

But we were ask to find the the length of the line segment AC

AC = 3x - 7

substituting x = 7 into the above equation will yield;

AC = 3(7) - 7 = 21 - 7 =14

Therefore the length of the line segment AC is equal to 14

Scrat [10]

YES

  • Area of Triangle 1

Base=b

Height= h

Area 1=A1=1/2*b*h

  • Area of Triangle 2

Base=b

Height= 4h

Area of triangle 2=A2=1/2*b*4h

  • Comparing A1 and A2

A2/A1= (1/2*b*4h)/(1/2*b*h)

= (1/2*b*4h)/(1/2*b*h)

=4/1

Ratio of heights =h2/h1= 4/1

Ratio of areas =A2/A1= 4/1

They are proportional.

Find all of the polar coordinates of point P if p=(1,-pi/6)
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The all polar coordinates of point P are  (1 , -pi/6 + 2nn) and (-1, -pi/6+(2n+1)n).

Step-by-step explanation:

The polar coordinates can be written as (r,Ф)= (r,Ф+2nn) or (r,Ф) =(-r,Ф+(2n+1)n) and n is any integer value.

We are given p=(1,-pi/6)

P(r,Ф), then r = 1 and Ф = -pi/6

The polar coordinates will be

P(r,Ф)= (r,Ф+2nn)  = (1 , -pi/6 + 2nn) and n is any positive integer and the value of r is positive.

P(r,Ф) =(-r,Ф+(2n+1)n) = (-1, -pi/6+(2n+1)n) and n is any positive integer and the value of r is negative.

The all polar coordinates of point P are  (1 , -pi/6 + 2nn) and (-1, -pi/6+(2n+1)n)
