To create a perfect square trinomial, halve the x coefficient, square it, and then add that value.
In the case of x² + 6x, we would have 6 to get 3, then square 3 to get 9.
We would add 9 to make a perfect square trinomial.
<u>
</u><u>Why this works</u>
A perfect square trinomial is designed to factor to some value (x+n)².
When you FOIL this you get x² + 2nx + n².
As you can see, if you wanted to find the value of that n², you could take that x coefficient 2n, halve it to get n, and then square it to get n²!

Answer:
Distance= 6.6 miles
Bearing= N 62.854°W
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's determine angle b first
Angle b=20° (alternate angles)
Using cosine rule
Let the distance between the liner and the port be x
X² =8.8²+2.4²-2(8.8)(2.4)cos20
X²= 77.44 + 5.76-(39.69)
X²= 43.51
X= √43.51
X= 6.596
X= 6.6 miles
Let's determine the angles within the triangle using sine rule
2.4/sin b = 6.6/sin20
(2.4*sin20)/6.6= sin b
0.1244 = sin b
7.146= b°
Angle c= 180-20-7.146
Angle c= 152.854°
For the bearing
110+7.146= 117.146
180-117.146= 62.854°
Bearing= N 62.854°W
Answer:
1) -1/4
2) -1/2
3) 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular lines' slopes are opposite reciprocals so you flip it and change the positive or negative sign
parallel lines have the same slope
