Hey I am super confused about the equation below. plzz help!!!

The value of x in the special right triangle is 39.60 ft.

<h3>Right angle triangle</h3>

Right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. The side and angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.

Therefore, let's find the base of the triangle with 30 degrees.

sin 30° = opposite / hypotenuse

1 / 2 = 7 / b

b = 14 ft

Let's use the value(14 ft) to find the height of the biggest triangle.

sin 30 = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 30 = 14 / h

0.5h = 14

h = 14 / 0.5

h = 28 ft

Therefore, let's find the value of x .

sin 45° = 28 / x

x = 28 / 0.70710678118

x = 39.5979797464

x = 39.60 ft

I have these factoring questions I need help with.

snow_lady [41]

$f(x)=4x^2+4x-3$

1. Determine y-intercept.

The y-intercept is (0,-3). Substitute x = 0 in the equation as we get f(x) = -3 as the y-intercept.

2. Determine the zeros.

Factor the polynomials first. $(2x-1)(2x+3)$ This is the factored form. The zeros are the roots of equation. Therefore, the zeros are 1/2 and -3/2

3. Determine the Axis of Symmetry

We can solve this by using the formula of $x=-\frac{b}{2a}$ However, I'll be solving the Axis of Symmetry with Calculus instead.

$f'(x)=2(4x^{2-1})+1(4x^{1-1})-0\\f'(x)=8x+4$

Then let f'(x) = 0 to find the Axis of Symmetry.

$8x+4=0\\8x=-4\\x=-\frac{4}{8}\\x=-\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the Axis of Symmetry is -1/2

4. Determine the vertex.

Substitute the value of Axis of Symmetry in f(x).

$f(x)=4(-\frac{1}{2})^2+4(-\frac{1}{2})-3\\f(x)=4(\frac{1}{4})-2-3\\f(x)=1-2-3\\f(x)=-4$

Therefore the vertex is at (-1/2, -4)

5. Does the vertex representing max-pont or min-point?

The vertex represents the minimum point. The graph is upward, meaning the minimum point is the point that gives the LOWEST Y-VALUE.

7. Graph f(x)

Unfortunately I won't be able to graph. But I can tell you to graph a parabola that has the most curve at the vertex and intercepts y-axis at (0,-3).

--------------------------- End of Part 1 --------------------------------

2. Write the general form of Quadratic Function in standard form.

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

The graph can be easily determined about the y-intercept and being an upward or downward parabola along with how narrow or wide the parabola is.

For example, c value is the y-intercept as defined. When a > 0, the parabola is upward and when a < 0, the parabola is downward. The more value of | a | is, the more narrow it will be and the less value of | a | it is, the wider it will be.

3. Write in Factored Form

$y=(x+a)(x+b)\\y=(x-a)(x-b)\\y=(x+a)(x-b)\\y=(x-a)(x+b)$

These are factored forms with different types of operators.

The equation can be easily determined about the roots of equation. For example, if the function is in f(x) = (x+2)(x-1) Then the roots would be x = -2 and 1 as the graph will intercept x-axis at (-2,0) and (1,0)

4. Write in Vertex Form.

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

The equation can be easily determined for the vertex, axis of symmetry and the same narrow/wide/upward/downward parabola again.

The vertex is at (h,k) and the axis of symmetry is at x = h.

For example, $y=(x-2)^2+3$

The vertex would be at (2,3) and the axis of symmetry is x = 2.

can anyone help me with this? i know how to solve it I just dont know the reasons and statement definitions

MAVERICK [17]

If you do a check (plug in your answer to y) that would be your reason

Find the length of the missing leg. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary

mestny [16]

I’m going to use Pythagorus theorem for his question. // firstly I would do 20^2 + 16^2 = 656 // we them square root that number, so the square root of 656 is 25.61, meaning the missing length is 25.6
