Answer:

notice how a right triangle was formed, and the Pythagorean theorem could be used to solve this :

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 15^2 = 17^2

a^2 + 225 = 289

a^2 = 64

a= 8

multiply it by 2 to get the side of the base

8 * 2 = 16

The perimeter of a rectangular

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a rectangle, we know for sure that perimeter = double the width and double the height. Algebraically, that looks like:

P = 2W + 2H

Let's sub in the given values, P and W:

18 = 2(4) + 2H

Now, let's solve for the height, H:

18 = 8 + 2H

10 = 2H

10/2 = H

I hope this helps!

A triangle-shaped machine part has sides of 2 1/2 inches, 3 1/4 inches, and 5 inches. The triangle's perimeter is

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of any shape is the distance around the edge of the shape. It is found by adding the side lengths of each side together.

Add each side length listed for the triangle part.

$P = 2\frac{1}{2} + 3\frac{1}{4} + 5 \\P = 2\frac{2}{4} + 3\frac{1}{4} + 5\\P = 10 \frac{3}{4}$

Describe a real world situation that can be modeled by the equation y = 1/20x. be sure to describe what each variable represents

ivolga24 [154]

A real world example could be:
Consider x is time in minutes
Consider y is the amount of fish food required in grams

The equation could then represent how much food (in grams) that a fish needs to be fed x minutes after it was previously fed.

WILL GIVE BRAINLEST ANSWER IF ANSWERED IN THE NEXT 24 HRS Express the complex number in trigonometric form. -5i

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

$z=5\left(\cos \left(\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\right)\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

If a complex number is z=a+ib, then the trigonometric form of complex number is

$z=r(\cos \theta +i\sin \theta)$

where, $r=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}$ and $\tan \theta=\dfrac{b}{a}$ , $\theta$ is called the argument of z, $0\leq \theta\leq 2\pi$ .

The given complex number is -5i.

It can be rewritten as

$z=0-5i$

Here, a=0 and b=-5. $\theta$ lies in 4th quadrant.

$r=\sqrt{0^2+(-5)^2}=5$

$\tan \theta=\dfrac{-5}{0}$

$\tan \theta=\infty$

$\theta=2\pi -\dfrac{\pi}{2}$ $[\because \text{In 4th quadrant }\theta=2\pi-\theta]$

$\theta=\dfrac{3\pi}{2}$

So, the trigonometric form is

$z=5\left(\cos \left(\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\right)\right)$
