Answer:
Option C. 3√3
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see attached photo for brief explanation.
In the attached photo, we obtained the following:
Opposite = a
Adjacent = 3
Hypothenus = 6
Angle θ = 60°
We can obtain the value of 'a' as follow:
Tan θ = Opposite /Adjacent
Tan 60° = a/3
Cross multiply
a = 3 x Tan 60°
But: Tan 60° = √3
a = 3 x Tan 60°
a = 3 x √3
a = 3√3
Therefore, the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 3√3.
Using the Slope Equation
Pick two points on the line and determine their coordinates.
Determine the difference in y-coordinates of these two points (rise).
Determine the difference in x-coordinates for these two points (run).
Divide the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates (rise/run or slope).
Since <span> sin(α) > 0 and cos(α) > 0
so </span><span>α is IN THE FIRST QUADRANT (I)</span>
Answer:
x = -5, 5
Step-by-step explanation:
-x^2-8=-33
Add 8 to each side
-x^2-8+8=-33+8
-x^2 = -25
Divide each side by -1
x^2 = 25
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(25)
x = ±5
