Answer:

The answer to your question is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-3, -1)

B (-3 , 5)

length of a side = 8 units

Process

1.- Calculate the distance between A and B

dAB = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}

x1 = -3     y1 = -1

x2 = -3    y2 = 5

-Substitution

dAB = \sqrt{(-3 + 3)^{2}+ (5 + 1)^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{0^{2} + 6^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{36}

dAB = 6 u

2.- Calculate the diagonal using the Pythagorean theorem.

    c² = a² + b²

    c² = 6² + 8²

    c² = 36 + 64

    c² = 100

    c = 10 units

- Conclusion

The diagonal of the rectangle measures 10 units

GenaCL600 [577]
Hello,

cos 160°=-q

cos 20°=-cos 160°=q

sin 20°=√(1-q²)=sin 160°

tan -20°=tan 160=√(1-q²)/-q

cos 70°=sin 20°=√(1-q²)

In a lottery game, a player picks six numbers from 1 to 22. If the player matches all six numbers, they win 20,000 dollars. Othe
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Total possible number of outcomes = C(24,6) [24 choose 6]

=24!/(6!18!)

= 134596

Out of which there is only one winning combination.

Therefore we conclude:

P(win 20000)=1/134596

P(lose 1)=134595/134596

and hence the expected value is:

20000*(1/134596)+(-1)*(134595/134596)

=-114595/134596

=-0.8514 (rounded to four places after decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped!

Line t intersects line u as shown below <br><br><br> What is the value of x
Rudiy27

Answer:

x = 117 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram, the angle at the top left on line t is equal to theta of the top left on line u and is equal to 117 degrees (corresponding angle)

Also the angle angle on the top left on line u will be equal to x (vertically opposite angle)

Hence the value of x = 117 degrees (vertically opposite to each other on line u)
