Answer:

2\sqrt {2}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Distance From a Point to a Line</u>

Given a line with an equation :

ax + by + c = 0

And the point (x_0,y_0)

The distance from the line to the point is given by

\displaystyle d=\frac {|ax_{0}+by_{0}+c|}{\sqrt {a^{2}+b^{2}}}

The triangle has a vertex at (1,-2) and the base lies on the equation

x + y = 3

Rearranging:

x + y - 3 = 0

The altitude of the triangle is the distance from the point to the line.

The values to use in the formula of the distance are: a=1, b=1, c=-3, xo=1, yo=-2:

\displaystyle d=\frac {|1*1+1*(-2)-3|}{\sqrt {1^{2}+1^{2}}}

\displaystyle d=\frac {|1-2-3|}{\sqrt {2}}

\displaystyle d=\frac {4}{\sqrt {2}}

Rationalizing:

\displaystyle d=\frac {4}{\sqrt {2}}\cdot\frac{\sqrt {2}}{\sqrt {2}}

\displaystyle d=2\sqrt {2}

The altitude of the triangle is \mathbf{4\sqrt {2}}

Your plan was to be on the road by 9 A.M. but you did not leave the garage until 10 A.M. You then drove with the cruise control
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon was of 33.33 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed is given by the following equation:

v = \frac{d}{t}

From 10A.M. to noon.

You traveled at 50mph during 2 hours. So how long you traveled?

50 = \frac{d}{2}

d = 50*2

d = 100

You traveled 100 miles.

What was your average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon

From 9 A.M. to 10 A.M, you did not travel.

From 10 P.M. to noon, 100 miles.

So 100 miles during 3 hours.

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{100}{3} = 33.33

The average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon was of 33.33 mph.

Evaluate the following integrals: 1. Z x 4 ln x dx 2. Z arcsin y dy 3. Z e −θ cos(3θ) dθ 4. Z 1 0 x 3 √ 4 + x 2 dx 5. Z π/8 0 co
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The integrals was calculated.

Step-by-step explanation:

We calculate integrals, and we get:

1) ∫ x^4 ln(x) dx=\frac{x^5 · ln(x)}{5} - \frac{x^5}{25}

2) ∫ arcsin(y) dy= y arcsin(y)+\sqrt{1-y²}

3) ∫ e^{-θ} cos(3θ) dθ = \frac{e^{-θ} ( 3sin(3θ)-cos(3θ) )}{10}

4) \int\limits^1_0 {x^3 · \sqrt{4+x^2} } \, dx = \frac{x²(x²+4)^{3/2}}{5} - \frac{8(x²+4)^{3/2}}{15} = \frac{64}{15} - \frac{5^{3/2}}{3}

5)  \int\limits^{π/8}_0 {cos^4 (2x) } \, dx =\frac{sin(8x} + 8sin(4x)+24x}{6}=

=\frac{3π+8}{64}

6)  ∫ sin^3 (x) dx = \frac{cos^3 (x)}{3} - cos x

7) ∫ sec^4 (x) tan^3 (x) dx = \frac{tan^6(x)}{6} + \frac{tan^4(x)}{4}

8)  ∫ tan^5 (x) sec(x)  dx = \frac{sec^5 (x)}{5} -\frac{2sec^3 (x)}{3}+ sec x
