Jane: Think: the hypotenuse of her ramp is 14 inches and the angle opposite the rise is 30 degrees. Thus, cos 30 deg = (adj side) / (hyp) = (adj side) / (14 in).
Solving for (adj side), we get (adj side) = (14 in)(sqrt(3)/2) = 7 sqrt(3) inches.
Answer:20
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
PQ and QR are congruent.
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of PQ = sqrt [(2 - -1)^2 + (-1 - 3)^2]
= sqrt 25
= 5 units.
QR = sqrt [(5-2)^2 + (3 - -1)^2) ]
= sqrt 25
= 5 units.
PR = sqrt [ ( 3-3^2 + (5- -1)^2]
= sqrt 36
= 6 units.
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The way you can tell if the graph is going to cross the x-axis or just touch the x-axis is by looking at the power of the factor.
(x - 5)^3 has a power of 3 which is an ODD number. An ODD power means that the graph will cross through the x-axis.
(x + 2)^2 has a power of 2 which is an EVEN number. An EVEN power means that the graph will touch the x-axis.
To find where it will touch the axis set the factor equal to zero and solve.
(x + 2) = 0
subtract 2 from both sides
x = -2
