The perimeter of the larger polygon will have the same ratio to the perimeter of the smaller as the ratio of the corresponding sides. Therefore, the larger polygon will have a perimeter of 30(15/12) = 37.5, or 38 to the justified number of significant digits stated.
The answer to your problem is
Discriminant of a quadratic equation can be calculated as:
Discriminant = b² - 4ac
b = coefficient of x term = 2
a = coefficient of squared term = 1
c = constant = 7
So,
Discriminant = 4 - 4(1)(7) = -24
So, the correct answer to this question is option C
Answer:
For a general point (x, y), a reflection across the line x = a transforms the point into:
(a + (a - x), y) = (2a - x, y)
So if we first do a reflection across the line x = 1, the new point will be:
(2*1 - x, y) = (2 - x, y)
And if we now do a reflection across the line x = 3, the new point will be:
(2*3 - (2 - x), y) = (6 - 2 + x, y) = (4 + x, y)
Now that we have the general formula we can solve the question.
For the point (-5, 2)
The generated point after the reflections is:
(4 + (-5), 2) = (-1, 2)
For the point (-1, 5)
The generated point after the reflections is:
(4 + (-1), 5) = (3, 5)
For the point (0, 3)
The generated point after the reflections is:
(4 +0, 3) = (4, 3)
This is not possible because arcsin is the angle that will give you a sine value of 2. Sine values range from -1 to 1; there is no angle that will give you a sine of 2.
