Since it's a right triangle you can use the Pythagorean theorem or Trig (Soh Cah Toa).
I'll just use the Pythagorean theorem : a² + b² = c²
a = 9
b = x
c = 18
9² + x² = 18²
81 + x² = 324
x² = 324 - 81
x² = 243
x = √(243)
factor 243 to find a perfect square
x = √(3*81)
x = 9√(3)<u />
You multiply fractions simply by multiplying numerators and denominators with each other:
Answer:
2.15cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
V = Mass / Density
21.93g / 10.2g/cm^3
2.15cm^3
Answer:
The correct option is;
21 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the parabolic arc is as follows;
y = a(x - h)² + k
Where the height is 25 ft and the span is 40 ft, the coordinates of the vertex (h, k) is then (20, 25)
We therefore have;
y = a(x - 20)² + 25
Whereby the parabola starts from the origin (0, 0), we have;
0 = a(0 - 20)² + 25
0 = 20²a + 25 → 0 = 400·a + 25
∴a = -25/400 = -1/16
The equation of the parabola is therefore;
To find the height 8 ft from the center, where the center is at x = 20 we have 8 ft from center = x = 20 - 8 = 12 or x = 20 + 8 = 28
Therefore, plugging the value of x = 12 or 28 in the equation for the parabola gives;
