Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

7.)

Supplementary angles add up to 180°. ∠B's supplement is 22°. This means ∠B is 158°. Since ∠A ≅ ∠B, the m∠A = 158°.

8.)

Again, supplementary angles add up to 180°. ∠P is a right angle meaning it is 90°. Therefore, the m∠Q is 90° as well.

9.)

Complementary angles add up to 90°. In order for ∠S and ∠T to be complementary, they both need to angle measurements less than 90° meaning they both need to be acute angles.

Now that we know that ∠T is acute, the only way ∠U can be its supplement is if it has an angle measure greater than 90°. Therefore, ∠U is an obtuse angle.

10.)

Similar to question 9, if an angle is obtuse, its supplement must be an acute angle.

Write the equation of an ellipse with a major axis of length 8 and co-vertices (0,3) and (0,-3)

alexandr1967 [171]

If the co-vertices are (0, 3) and (0, -3) where x is 0 and y has a value, then y is the minor axis. That means that the x axis is the major axis. Because of what the co-vertices are, the center of the ellipse is at the origin. The formula for an ellipse that has a horizontal major axis is $\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+ \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1$ . The a value will always be larger than the b value, therefore, the a value goes under the coordinate that is the major axis. Here, its the x-axis. a is the distance that the outer edge of the ellipse is from the center. It's 8 units away from the center along the x axis and 3 units along the y axis from the center. So a = 8 and a^2 = 64; b = 3 and b^2 = 9. Our formula then is $\frac{x^2}{64}+ \frac{y^2}{9}=1$
