Answer:

  3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

Filling in the given information, we can solve for h.

  15 ft² = 1/2(4 ft +6 ft)h

  15 ft² = (5 ft)h

  h = (15 ft²)/(5 ft) = 3 ft

The height of the trapezoid is 3 feet.

The line l is tangent to the circle with equation x² + y2 = 169 at the point P.
timofeeve [1]

Given:

The equation of a circle is

x^2+y^2=169

A tangent line l to the circle touches the circle at point P(12,5).

To find:

The gradient of the line l.

Solution:

Slope formula: If a line passes through two points, then the slope of the line is

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Endpoints of the radius are O(0,0) and P(12,5). So, the slope of radius is

m_1=\dfrac{5-0}{12-0}

m_1=\dfrac{5}{12}

We know that, the radius of a circle is always perpendicular to the tangent at the point of tangency.

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is always -1.

Let the slope of tangent line l is m. Then, the product of slopes of line l and radius is -1.

m\times m_1=-1

m\times \dfrac{5}{12}=-1

m=-\dfrac{12}{5}

Therefore, the gradient or slope of the tangent line l is -\dfrac{12}{5} .

Find x. Give reasons to justify your solution.
stich3 [128]

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

If AB and CD are the straight lines, sum all the angles formed at a point lying on this line will be 180°.

m∠COE + m∠EOF + m∠FOB + m∠BOD = 180° [Angles at a point O on line AB]

3x + x + (x + 12) + m∠BOD = 180°

m∠BOD = 180° - (5x + 12)

Similarly, m∠AOD + m∠AOC = 180°

152° + m∠AOC = 180°

m∠AOC = 28°

Since, ∠AOC and ∠BOD are the vertical angles,

m∠AOC = m∠BOD

180° - (5x + 12)° = 28°

5x + 12 = 180 - 28

5x = 140

x = 28

The line plots shows the number of hours two different age groups of teenagers spent online the previous week.
Serjik [45]
The range is <span>is greater for data set 2.
- This is because it goes from 21-34 in the first set and 12-36 in the second. 

The mean is greater for data set 2. 
- This is because the first mean is 27.4 and the second is 28.05. </span>
