Write the equation of a parabola having the vertex (1, −2) and containing the point (3, 6) in vertex form. Then, rewrite the equ

In-s [12.5K]

PART A

The equation of the parabola in vertex form is given by the formula,

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

where

$(h,k)=(1,-2)$

is the vertex of the parabola.

We substitute these values to obtain,

$y + 2 = a {(x - 1)}^{2}$

The point, (3,6) lies on the parabola.

It must therefore satisfy its equation.

$6 + 2 = a {(3 - 1)}^{2}$

$8= a {(2)}^{2}$

$8=4a$

$a = 2$
Hence the equation of the parabola in vertex form is

$y + 2 = 2 {(x - 1)}^{2}$

PART B

To obtain the equation of the parabola in standard form, we expand the vertex form of the equation.

$y + 2 = 2{(x - 1)}^{2}$

This implies that

$y + 2 = 2(x - 1)(x - 1)$

We expand to obtain,

$y + 2 = 2( {x}^{2} - 2x + 1)$

This will give us,

$y + 2 = 2 {x}^{2} - 4x + 2$

$y = {x}^{2} - 4x$

This equation is now in the form,

$y = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$
where

$a=1,b=-4,c=0$

This is the standard form

Suppose ABC is a right triangle with sides a, b, and c and right angle at C. Find the unknown side length using the Pythagorean

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

a = $\sqrt{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.:

<em>Suppose ABC is a right triangle with sides a, b, and c and right angle at C. Find the unknown side length using the Pythagorean theorem and then find the values of the six trigonometric functions for angle B. when b=3 and c=4</em>.

My answer:

We will Pythagoras theorem, which states that the sum of squares of two legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse of right triangle. Because the question says that ABC is a right triangle.

$a^2+b^2=c^2$
