Answer:

the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the distance we need to use the Pythagoras theorem

d^2 = 800^2 + 200^2

d= 824.6 m

we can find the direction by using the eq for a tangent

he opposite side is 200 m and the adjacent side is 800m

tan theta = opposite / adjacent

theta = arc tan (800/200)

The hawk is at a distance of 824.6m flying at an angle 76 degrees NE of the mountain peak.

The final location will be southwest of the mountain peek.

a2+b2=c2

a = 200

b= 800

c = √(2002+8002) = 824.62

So the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

102+900=1002 More. Then 100
Ksivusya [100]
Hello!

I don't exactly understand your question. If you mean to be asking whether or not 1002 is geater than 100, it is.

If you mean to be asking to add it: 102 + 900 + 100 = 1102

Find the first term of the following geometric sequence ----,42,126,378,1,134
sergey [27]
Since it is a geometric sequence each term will be a specific multiple of the term preceding it, called the common ratio...

126/42=378/126=1134/378=3

The sequence is a(n)=a(3)^(n-1) and we know the second term is 42 so:

42=a(3)^(2-1)

42=3a

a=14

So the first term is 14.
