Answer:

  • RS = 26
  • x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Question 1</h3>

V and W are midpoints of RU and ST ⇒ VW is a midsegment  

VW  = 1/2(RS  + UT)  ⇒ RS = 2*VW - UT

<u>Substitute values:</u>

  • 2x + 15 = 2(2x + 5) - (6x - 37)
  • 2x + 15 = 4x + 10 - 6x + 37
  • 2x + 15 = -2x + 47
  • 2x + 2x = 37 - 15
  • 4x = 22
  • x = 5.5

RS = 2x + 15 = 2(5.5) + 15 = 11 + 15 = 26

Question 2

  • Trapezoid given with congruent sides, JM = KL
  • Angle J and K are congruent, both are (7x + 2)
  • Angles M and L are congruent, both are (2x - 14)

<u>J and M are supplementary, so sum to 180°</u>

  • 7x + 2 + 25x - 14 = 180
  • 32x = 192
  • x = 192/32
  • x = 6

Evaluate the function f(x) = 3x2− 2x for x= 4.
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

f(4) = 3(4²) - 2(4)

= 3(16) - 8

= 48 - 8

= 40

when x=4, f(x) = 40

3. Write the equation of a line that passes through the point (24, 25) and is
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

y=-1/3x + 33

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by writing this in point slope form and converting to slope intercept later. Since the slope of the perpendicular line is y=3x-30, this line must have a slope of -1/3. It's point slope form is therefore:

y-25=-1/3(x-24)

Now, you can convert to slope intercept by isolating y:

y=-1/3(x-24)+25

y=-1/3x+8+25

y=-1/3x+33

Hope this helps!

Andreas93 [3]

The identity Sin(α)/Tan(α) = Cos(α) is valid

Trigonometry is study of triangles. All trigonometric ratios are defined using the sides of the right triangle, such as an adjacent side, opposite side, and hypotenuse side. Three major of them are as follows :-

Sine Function:

sin(θ) = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine Function:

cos(θ) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent Function:

tan(θ) = Opposite / Adjacent

Lets prove this identity by proceeding with the LHS

= Sin(α)/Tan(α)

= Sin(α)/ (Sin(α)/Cos(α)) (Tan(α) = Sin(α)/Cos(α))

= Sin(α)xCos(α) / Sin(α)

= Cos(α)

Hence verified
