Q.The rectangular front windshield of the bus has the length of 1.5√3 m and the width of 1.5 m . The wipers are attached to the

bottom corners. If the length of each wiper is equal to the width of the windshield, find the percentage of the windshield that wipers can reach.

Answer:

Area covered by wiper=area of arc(A0D)+area of traingleAOB+area of arc(BOC)

We know AO and OB are wipers,whose lengths are 1.5

In ∆ABC

AB^2+BC^2=AC^2

(1.5√3)^2+(1.5)^2=(AC)^2

2.25×3+2.25=(AC)^2

2.25×4=AC^2

AC=3

Also AO=1.5

similarly using Pythagoras theorem in ∆OBC

we get

OC=1.5

this shows that point O is the bisector of diagonal AC

so,AO=OC

also from property of rectangle we know that, diagonal bisects each other equally

so,O will also be the bisector of diagonal BD

hence OB=OD=1.5

AC=BD (property of triangle)

AC/2=BD/2

OB=OC,hence OB=OC=OD=OA=1.5=AD=BC

Hence OAD will be an equilateral triangle

so

angle OAD=60

similarly angleOBC=60

area of sector=angle of that sector ×area of circle/360

area of arc(AOD)+arc(BOC)=60/360 ×3.14 ×1.5×1.5 +60/360 ×3.14×1.5×1.5

=2×(60/360)×1.5×1.5

area of triangleAOB=area of rectangle/4 (diagonal divides the rectangle in 4 equal parts)

area of triangle=1.5×1.5√3/4

=>1.5×2.6/4=3.90/4

=0.975 or 0.98(approx)

Area covered by wiper=.98+2×60/360 ×3.14×1.5×1.5

=.98+0.75×3.14=2.35+0.97

=2.35+.98

Percentage of area of windshield covered by wiper=3.3×100/3.9=84.61

hence percentage of area of windshield covered by wiper is 85percent(approx)

Solve the equation using the Quadratic Formula. 6x2 - 10x + 3 = 0
ivanzaharov [21]
6x² - 10x + 3 = 0

x = -b +/- √b² - 4ac / 2a
x = -(-10) +/- √(-10)² - 4(6)(3) / 2(6)
x = 10 +/- √100 - 72 / 12
x = 10 +/- √28 / 12
x = 10 +/- 2√7 / 12
x = 5 +/- √7 / 6

Therefore...

x = 5 + √7 / 6   and   x = 5 - √7 / 6

Answer:

The second one, 160

Step-by-step explanation:

3+3+5+8=19, and 380/19=20 so each unit is 20cm

8 is the largest side --> 8*20 = 160

To find the difference between these numbers you need to subtract 8.3 - 3.9
and that equals 4.4<span />
