The areas of two similar triangles are 72dm2 and 50dm2. The sum of their perimeters is 226dm. What is the perimeter of each of t
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

103=  p small

plarge = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the the ratio of the areas is the scale factor squared/

Larger triangle over smaller triangle

72

----- = scale factor ^2

50

simplify by dividing by 2 on top and bottom

36

----- = scale factor ^2

25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(36)

-------------- = sqrt(scale factor ^2)

sqrt(25)

6

-------------- = scale factor

5

The ratio of the perimeters is the scale factor

p large             6

-------------- = ----------------

 p small                5

Using cross products

6 p large = 5 p small

We know the sum is 226

p large + p small = 226

p large = 226 - p small

We have 2 equation and 2 unknowns

6 p large = 5 p small

Substitute for p large

6 (226 - p small) = 5 p small

1356 - 6 p small = 5 p small

Add 6 p small to each side

1356 = 11 p small

divide by 11

1356/11 =  p small

P large = 226-1356/11

p large = 2486/11-1356/11

plarge = 1130/11

The solution requires whole number answers so

1356/11 =  p small

123.27 which rounds to 123

plarge = 1130/11

plarge = 102.7272 = 103

Orthogonalizing vectors. Suppose that a and b are any n-vectors. Show that we can always find a scalar γ so that (a − γb) ⊥ b, a
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

\\ \gamma= \frac{a\cdot b}{b\cdot b}

Step-by-step explanation:

The question to be solved is the following :

Suppose that a and b are any n-vectors. Show that we can always find a scalar γ so that (a − γb) ⊥ b, and that γ is unique if b \neq 0. Recall that given two vectors a,b  a⊥ b if and only if a\cdot b =0 where \cdot is the dot product defined in \mathbb{R}^n. Suposse that b\neq 0. We want to find γ such that (a-\gamma b)\cdot b=0. Given that the dot product can be distributed and that it is linear, the following equation is obtained

(a-\gamma b)\cdot b = 0 = a\cdot b - (\gamma b)\cdot b= a\cdot b - \gamma b\cdot b

Recall that a\cdot b, b\cdot b are both real numbers, so by solving the value of γ, we get that

\gamma= \frac{a\cdot b}{b\cdot b}

By construction, this γ is unique if b\neq 0, since if there was a \gamma_2 such that (a-\gamma_2b)\cdot b = 0, then

\gamma_2 = \frac{a\cdot b}{b\cdot b}= \gamma
