Which of the following is a perfect square trinomial?

Mathematics

shutvik [7]3 years ago

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a look at what happens when squaring either of these...

(ax-by)^2=(ax-by)(ax-by)=a^2x^2-2abxy+b^2y^2\\\\(ax+by)^2=(ax+by)(ax+by)=a^2x^2+2abxy+b^2y^2\\

Notice a couple of patterns.

1.  The last term has a positive coefficient.  That rules out answer choices C and D.

2.  The coefficient of the middle term is either +2ab \text{ or } -2ab .  So what are <em>a</em>  and <em>b</em>?  <em>a</em> is the square root of the x^2 term and <em>b</em> is the square root of the y^2 term.

25x^2 \Rightarrow a=5\\\\9y^2 \Rightarrow b=3\\\\ab=15\\\\2ab=30

The middle coefficient needs to be either +30 or -30.  The answer is choice A.

just olya [345]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A is rather a strange choice. The tools are used as extensions of our  senses. That's all that technology has done. We still need to observe things for ourselves if we are to learn. I actually really do not know what this statement means. My answer reflects what I think is true. Our need to observe and think is not hindered.

B is never going to be true. We still have to test things out, even with the best tools that we have.

C: The exact opposite is true. Our knowledge of the universe has expanded beyond our belief with the better tools of technology that we have.

D: This is the opposite of C and is the answer.

AB is a diameter of a circle, center O. C is a point on the circumference of the circle, such that
Solnce55 [7]

Given:

AB is the diameter of a circle.

m∠CAB = 26°

To find:

The measure of m∠CBA.

Solution:

Angle formed in the diameter of a circle is always 90°.

⇒ m∠ACB = 90°

In triangle ACB,

Sum of the angles in the triangle = 180°

m∠CAB + m∠ACB + m∠CBA = 180°

26° + 90° + m∠CBA = 180°

116° + m∠CBA = 180°

Subtract 116° from both sides.

116° + m∠CBA - 116° = 180° - 116°

m∠CBA = 64°

The measure of m∠CBA is 64°.
