Hypothenus = sqrt ((x^2 - y^2)^2 + (2xy)^2) = sqrt(x^4 - 2x^2y^2 + y^4 + 4x^2y^2) = sqrt(x^4 + 2x^2y^2 + y^4) = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)^2 = x^2 + y^2
Answer:
John ski down the mountain is 1285.37 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : John is skiing on a mountain with an altitude of 1200 feet. The angle of depression is 21.
To find : About how far does John ski down the mountain ?
Solution :
We draw a rough image of the question for easier understanding.
Refer the attached figure below.
According to question,
Let AB be the height of mountain i.e. AB=1200 feet
The angle of depression is 21 i.e. 
We have to find how far does John ski down the mountain i.e. AC = ?
Using trigonometric,




Therefore, John ski down the mountain is 1285.37 feet.
Answer: 1st option
Step-by-step explanation:
I've attached the solution
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
recall that perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals. if u don't know what opposite reciprocals are, according to study.com they are, "The term opposite reciprocals refers to two numbers that have opposite signs and are flipped fractions of each other." for example, 1/2 and -2 are opposite reciprocals.
also recall that the formula to find the slope of a line is m=y2-y1/x2-x1
to solve this problem, we need to go through all of the options and find the slope of that line using the given point and point (0,4). After that, we need to check if that slope is equal to 1. One is the opposite reciprocal of -1, and -1 is the slope of the equation y= -x+4. if the slope is equal to 1, the line will be perpendicular to the line y= -x+4.
lets do the math now:
option a)
m=y2-y1/x2-x1
m=12-4/6-0
m=8/6
m=4/3
this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is 4/3, which isnt equal to 1
option b)
m=y2-y1/x2-x1
m=0-4/6-0
m=-4/6
m= -2/3
this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is -2/3, which isnt equal to 1
--------------
ok girl i dont wanna do all the rest of the calculations. just keep doing the same thing with all the other options until you find something that has a slope of 1.
toodles! :)
