Answer:

  about 5.613 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the quadratic formula to find the value of t when h = 0, we have ...

  at² +bt +c = 0

  t = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)

  t = (-72±√(72² -4(-16)(100)))/(2(-16))

  t = (-72±√11584)/-32 = (9±√181)/4

Only the positive value of t is of interest.

  The coin will hit the stream after (9+√181)/4 seconds ≈ 5.613 seconds.

What are the remaining angle measures if the figure is to be a parallelogram?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

We conclude that:

m∠B = 101°

m∠C = 79°

m∠D = 101°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the parallelogram ABCD

We know that a parallelogram has opposite angles that are congruent.

Here,

The angles ∠A and ∠C are opposite angles.

Thus,

  • ∠A = ∠C

The angles ∠B and ∠D are opposite angles.

Thus,

  • ∠B = ∠D

<u>Determining the measure of angles of a parallelogram:</u>

As

∠A = 79°

We know

  • ∠A = ∠C

Thus, the measure of the angle ∠C is:

m∠C = 79°

We know that the sum of the measure of two consecutive angles is 180°.

As ∠A and ∠D are consecutive angles, so

∠A + ∠D = 180°

substituting ∠A = 79° in the equation

79° + ∠D = 180°

subtracting 79° from both sides

79° + ∠D - 79° = 180° - 79°

∠D = 101°

Thus, the measure of the angle D is:

m∠D = 101°

We know that the angles ∠B and ∠D are opposite angles.

Thus,

  • ∠B = ∠D

so if m∠D = 101° then ∠B is also 101°.

Therefore, the measure of angle B is:

m∠B = 101°

Hence, we conclude that:

m∠B = 101°

m∠C = 79°

m∠D = 101°
