On a coordinate plane, triangles R S T and L M N are shown. Triangle R S T has points (5, 5), (2, 1), and (1, 3). Triangle L M N

has points (0, negative 1), (2, negative 4), and (negative 2, negative 3). How does the area of triangle RST compare to the area of triangle LMN

Answer:

LMN has a larger area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

RST

R =(5,5)

S= (2,1)

T = (1,3)

LMN

L = (0,-1)

M= (2,-4)

N= (-2,-3)

Required

Compare both areas

The area of triangle is:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|

For RST, we have:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|5*1 - 2*5 + 2*3 - 1*1 + 1*5 - 5*3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|-10|

Remove absolute signs

Area = \frac{1}{2}*10

Area = 10

For LMN, we have:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|0*-4-2*-1+2*-3--2*-4--2*-1-0*-3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|-14|

Remove absolute signs

Area = \frac{1}{2}*14

Area = 7

<em>By comparing both areas, we can conclude that LMN has a larger area</em>

Vector u has a magnitude of 4 with a direction of 50°. Vector v has a magnitude of 6 with
Luda [366]

Answer: <8.01, 5.60>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vector:

v= (r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta)

, where r = magnitude and \theta = angle .

As per given,

u=(4\cos 50^{\circ}, 4\sin 50^{\circ})\\\\\approx(4(0.64),4(0.77))\\\\=(2.56, 3.08)

v=(6\cos 25^{\circ}, 6\sin 25^{\circ})\\\\\approx(6(0.91),6(0.42))\\\\=(5.46, 2.52)

Consider

u+v=(2.56,3.08)+(5.46,2.52)\\\\=(2.56+5.46,3.08+2.52)\\\\=(8.02,\ 5.60)

Hence, the correct option is <8.01, 5.60>.

The clock below shows the time when Amber leaves home for school.at what time does Amber leave home
8_murik_8 [283]
8:10, because Amber is leaving home FOR school at 8:10. "For" is the keyword. It means she left at that certain time. If that makes sense.

How would you find the x-intercept of f(x)=(x-4)^2-3?
Svetlanka [38]
The x -intercepts occur when f(x) =0
So,
(x-4)^2 = x^2 -8x + 16 -3 =0
x^2 -8x + 13 =0
Solving by the quadratic formula
x1 = 5.7321
x2 = 2.2679
