Solutions
To solve this problem we have to use the Pythagorean theorem. You can only use the Pythagorean theorem in Right Triangles. The longest side of the triangle is called the "hypotenuse". C² is the longest side so it is the hypotenuse . To calculate c² we have to do α² + β² = c².
Given
One leg of a right triangular piece of land has a length of 24 yards. They hypotenuse has a length of 74 yards. The other leg has a length of 10x yards.
First leg (24 yards) would be α
Second leg would be β
Hypotenuse (74 yards) would be c
Now we have points α β c.
a² (24) + β² ( x ) = c² (74)
Calculations
c² = α² + β²
74² = 24²+ β²
<span>5476 = 576 + </span>β²
5476 - 576 = β²
<span> </span>
<span>4900 = </span>β²
→√4900
<span> </span>
β<span> = 70 yards
</span>
<span>70 = 10x
</span>
<span>x = 70</span>÷<span>10 = 7 yards
</span>
The second leg = 7 yards
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
13/ 52 = 1/4 chances.
There are 13 spades and 52 cards. You divide the spades and cards in the deck to find your chances of drawing one.
You have a 25% chance of getting a spade.
Now you put it back. Since you put it back, you still have the same number of cards and the same number of spades. So when you divide 13/52 again, the numbers are still the same. 1/4. 25% chance.
So, you still have a 25% chance the second time around.
Answer:
The golfball launched with an initial velocity of 200ft/s will travel the maximum possible distance which is 1250 ft when it is hit at an angle of
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula from the maximum distance of a projectile with initial height h=0, is:

Where
is the initial velocity.
In the closed interval method, the first step is to find the values of the function in the critical points in the interval which is
. The critical points of the function are those who make
:


The critical value inside the interval is
.

The second step is to find the values of the function at the endpoints of the interval:

The biggest value of f is gived by
, therefore
is the absolute maximum.
In the context of the problem, the golfball launched with an initial velocity of 200ft/s will travel the maximum possible distance which is 1250 ft when it is hit at an angle of
.
