Three cell phones towers can be modeled by the points X(6,0), Y(8,4), and Z(3,9). Determine the location of another cell phone t

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The location of the new cell phone tower is $(h,k) = (3,4)$ , and the equation of the circle is $x^{2}+y^{2} -6\cdot x - 8\cdot y = 0$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of the cell phone tower coincides with the location of a circunference passing through the three cell phone towers. By Analytical Geometry, the equation of the circle is represented by the following general formula:

$x^{2} + y^{2}+A\cdot x + B\cdot y +C = 0$ (1)

Where:

$x$ - Independent variable.

$y$ - Dependent variable.

$A$ , $B$ , $C$ - Circunference constants.

Given the number of variable, we need the location of three distinct points:

$(x_{1},y_{1}) = (6,0)$

$36 +6\cdot A + C = 0$

$(x_{2},y_{2}) = (8,4)$

$80 + 8\cdot A + 4\cdot B + C = 0$

$(x_{3},y_{3}) = (3,9)$

$90 + 3\cdot A + 9\cdot B + C = 0$

Then, we have the following system of linear equations:

$6\cdot A + C = -36$ (2)

$8\cdot A +4\cdot B + C = -80$ (3)

$3\cdot A + 9\cdot B + C = -90$ (4)

The solution of this system is:

$A = -6$ , $B = -8$ , $C = 0$

By comparing the general form with the standard form of the equation of the circunference is:

$A = -2\cdot h$ (5)

$B = -2\cdot k$ (6)

$C = h^{2}+k^{2}-r^{2}$ (7)

Where:

$h$ , $k$ - Coordinates of the center of the circle.

$r$ - Radius of the circle.

If we know that $A = -6$ , $B = -8$ and $C = 0$ , then coordinates of the center of the circle and its radius are, respectively:

$h = -\frac{A}{2}$

$k = -\frac{B}{2}$

$r = \sqrt{h^{2}+k^{2}-C}$

$h = 3$ , $k = 4$ , $r = 5$

The location of the new cell phone tower is $(h,k) = (3,4)$ , and the equation of the circle is $x^{2}+y^{2} -6\cdot x - 8\cdot y = 0$ .

What are the measures of Angles a, b, and c? Show your work and explain your answers.

andreev551 [17]

Answers: ∠a = 30° ; ∠b = 60° ; ∠c = 105°.
_____________________________________________
1) The measure of Angle a is 30°. (m∠a = 30°).
Proof: All vertical angles are congruent, and we are shown in the diagram that angle A — AND the angle labeled with the measurement of 30°— are vertical angles.

2) The measure of Angle b is 60°. (m∠b = 60°).
Proof: All three angles of a triangle add up to 90 degrees. In the diagram, we can examine the triangle formed by Angle A, Angle B, and a 90° angle. This is a right triangle, and the angle with 90∠ degrees is indicated as such (with the "square" symbol). So we know that one angle is 90°. We also know that m∠a = 30°. If there are three angles in a triangle, and all three angles must add up to 180°, and we know the measurements of two of the three angles, we can solve for the unknown measurement of the remaining angle, which in this case is: m∠b.
90° + 30° + m∠b = 180° ;
180° - (90° + 30°) = m∠b ;
180° - (120°) = m∠b = 60°
___________________________
Now we need to solve for the measure of Angle c (m∠c).
___________________________________________
All angles on a straight line (or straight "line segment") are called "supplementary angles" and must add up to 180°. As shown, Angle c is on a "straight line". The measurement of the remaining angle represented ("supplementary angle" to Angle c is 75° (shown on diagram). As such, the measure of "Angle C" (m∠c) = m∠c = 180° - 75° = 105°.

Which of the sets of ordered pairs represents a function?

wel

For something to be a function, the input (x value) can ONLY HAVE ONE output (y value), so if x has multiple outputs, it is not a function

B is not a function because x = 2 and x = 9 has 2 outputs

Your answer is A
