James is fencing off a triangular region for his cats to play in. From the first fence post, he walks 13 meters in a straight li

ne and plants the second fence post. From there, James heads in another direction for 5 meters and places the third fence post. If the distance between the first and third fence posts is 9 meters, find the area of the enclosed region. Round the answer to the nearest tenth.

You can use Heron's formula to do this  

Area of triangle = sqrt[ s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) ]   where s = half the perimeter of the triangle = 
1/2 * 13+5+9 = 13.5
so required area =  sqrt [ (13.5)(13.5-13)(13.5-5)(13.5-9)]
                            =  16.1  square meters

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

68

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Plug In (when you plug in you replace the defined variable with the number given. usually you have to find the numbers to plug in but since they're already given to you you just plug them in.) 4(3) + 8(7)=T   T= total cost

2) Multiply 4*3=12 8*7=56

3) Add 12+56=68

4) <u>T=68</u>

The curve given by x=sin(t),y=sin(t+sin(t)) has two tangent lines at the point (x,y)=(0,0). List both of them in order of increa
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

y = 0

y =2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parametric equations:

x (t) = sin (t)

y (t) = sin (t + sin (t))

The slope of the curve at any given point is given by dy / dx we will use chain rule to find dy / dx

(dy / dx) * (dx / dt) = (dy / dt)

(dy / dx) = (dy / dt) / (dx / dt)

Evaluate dx / dt and dy / dt

dx / dt = cos (t)

dy / dt = cos (t + sin (t)) * (1+cos (t))

Hence,

dy / dx = (1+cos(t))*cos(t + sin (t))) / cos (t)

@Given point (x,y) = 0 we evaluate t

0 = sin (t)

t = 0 , pi

Input two values of t and compute dy / dx

@ t = 0

dy / dx = (1 + cos (0))*cos (0 + sin (0))) / cos (0)

dy / dx = (1+1)*(1) / (1) = 2 @ t = 0

@t = pi

dy / dx = ( 1 + cos (pi))* cos (pi + sin (pi)) / cos (pi)

dy / dx = (1-1) * (-1) / (-1) = 0 @ t = pi

The corresponding gradients are 0 and 2 in increasing order and their respective equations are:

y = 2x

y = 0
