So, this creates a triangle once again. If we imagine a slide, the slide itself would be the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if there's a ladder leading up to the slide, that would be the vertical length we're looking for. The feet across the ground would be the distance from the bottom of the slide to the bottom of the ladder.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side length, as this would create a right triangle. | 8^2 + b^2 = 10^2 | 64 + b^2 = 100 | b^2 = 36 | b = 6 feet | The slide is 6 feet high at its highest point.

Find the area of each sector. Show your work.
hodyreva [135]
Area of the shaded sector = (120/360) * pi * 10^2

=  104.72  square units

Area of the other sector = 2 * 104.72 =  209.44 sq units

Find the equation of the tangent line and normal line to the curve y=(6+4x)2 at the point (6,900). Write the equations of the li
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Equation of the tangent to the curve

y = 240x - 215994

Equation of the normal

y = (-1/240)x + 9.75 = - 0.00417x + 9.75

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (6 + 4x)² = 36 + 48x + 16x² = 16x² + 48x + 36

dy/dx = 32x + 48

At the point (6,900),

dy/dx = 32(6) + 48 = 240

Equation of the tangent at point (a,b) is

(y - b) = m(x - a)

a = 6, b = 900, m = 240

y - 6 = 240(x - 900)

In the y = mx + b form,

y - 6 = 240x - 216000

y = 240x - 215994

The slope of the normal line = -(1/slope of the tangent line) (since they're both perpenducular to each other)

Slope of the normal line = -1/240

Equation of normal

y - 6 = (-1/240)(x - 900)

y - 6 = (-x/240) + 3.75

y = (-1/240)x + 9.75

y = - 0.00417x + 9.75
