Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Disclaimer  it is up the student to verify all the geometry algabra and mathematical formulas and calculation .

cosФ = opp/hyp     sinФ = adj/hyp        hyp = 10      perimeter = a + b + c

for the 45° right triangle

a = b     so      2a² = hyp²                       perimeter 45 = a + a + hyp    

P45 = 2a + hyp         a = sin(45) (hyp)  = [1/2√2)] (hyp)        sin(45) = (√2)/2

P45 = 2([1/2√2)] (hyp) + hyp

P45  = hyp (√2 + 1)

for the 30° right triangle

a = hyp×sin(30)     b = hyp×cos(30)           perimeter 30 = a + b + hyp    

            sin(30) = 1/2       cos(30) = (√3)/2

a  = hyp(1/2)           b = hyp(1/2)(√3)

P30 =        a        +      b         + hyp

        =  hyp(1/2)  +  hyp(1/2)(√3) + hyp

        =  hyp[ 1/2  +  (1/2)√3  + 1]

        =  hyp[ 1/2  +  (1/2)√3  + 1]             factored out the hyp

        =  (1/2)hyp[ 1 + √3 + 2]                  factored out a 1/2

P30  =  (1/2)hyp[ 3 + √3]

which is greater  P45 or P30?   vso I set both perimeters equal to each other

              P45           vs             P30

      hyp (√2 + 1)     =    (1/2)hyp[ 3 + √3]            the hyp cancel

               (√2 + 1)     =    (1/2)[ 3 + √3]                    still tough to tell  needed

               1.414 + 1    =    (1/2)[ 3 + 1.732]                to go to the calsulator

                 2.414      vs    1/2( 4.732)

                 2.414      >     2.366        thus P45 > P30    < -----  Final Answer

Distributive property Use the distributive property to remove the parentheses .{y+10}12=
malfutka [58]

Answer:

12y + 120

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First of, what is the distributive property?</u>

The distributive property is the property that helps distribute numbers under the parenthesis.

For example, lets use {x+1}4. You distribute the 4 towards the x and the one like this:

4(x) + 1(4)

4x + 4

Now, let's go back to your problem

<u>Solution:</u>

{y+10}12

12(y) +12(10)

= 12y + 120

a. Write and simplify the integral that gives the arc length of the following curve on the given integral. b If necessary, use t
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

\int\limits^{\pi/2} _0 (1+4cos^{2} (2x)dx

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length is calculated by dividing the arcs in to small segments ds

By pythagoren theorem

ds^2=dx^2+dy^2

then integrate ds to get arc length.

We are given a function as

y = sin 2x in the interval  [0, pi/2]

To find arc length in the interval

Arc length s =\int\limits^{\pi/2} _0 {1+y'^2} \, dx \\=\int\limits^{\pi/2} _0 (1+4cos^{2} (2x) )dx

Hence arc length would be

B) \int\limits^{\pi/2} _0 (1+4cos^{2} (2x)dx
