What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below

Mathematics
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
3 0
Using Sine.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

sin 60° = a / (6√3)                        But sin60° = √3/2

√3/2 = a/(6√3)

Cross multiply

2*a = 6√3 * √3

2a = 6 * √(3*3)

2a = 6*3

a = 6*3/2

a = 3*3 = 9

Option E.

Hope this helps.

( 5, 7 ) and ( 5, 8 )
For x = 5 :  f ( x ) = 7 and also for x = 5,  f ( x ) = 8. This is not possible for a function.
Answer:

Explain how two amounts of change can be the same but the percentage of change can be different
lys-0071 [83]

The change from 10 to 11 or from 100 to 101 is 1 in each case.

In the first case, the percentage of change is 1/10 = 10%.

In the second case, the percentage of change is 1/100 = 1%.

The percentages of change are different because the bases from which the change is measure are different.

What are the coordinates of point P?
irga5000 [103]
On this graph, coordinate P lies 2 units to the left of the center. The side-to-side movement of a point on a coordinate plane is called movement on the x-axis, and since it is 2 units to the left of the center, it is called -2. All units to the left of the zero point (middle of the graph) is counted in negative numbers.
Coordinate P also lies 4 units down from the center. Movement up and down the graph is called movement on the y-axis, and since it is 4 units below the center, it is called -4. All units below 0 on the y-axis are counted in negative numbers.
To assemble our coordinates, we just have to remember the format for coordinates on a plane, which is (x, y). The value of the point's position on the x-axis always comes first, followed by its position on the y-axis. In this case, the finished coordinate would be (-2, -4).
Hope that helped! =)
