The recycling plant processes 480 tons of glass per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of glass recycled each minute = \frac{1}{3}\ tons

We know that;

1 hour = 60 minutes

Therefore;

Quantity of glass recycled in one hour = \frac{1}{3}*60=20\ tons

1 day = 24 hours

Quantity of glass recycled in 24 hours = 24*20 = 480 tons

The recycling plant processes 480 tons of glass per day.

Determine if triangle ABC with coordinates A (0, 2), B (2, 5), and C (−1, 7) is an isosceles triangle. Use evidence to support y
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The triangle ABC is an isosceles right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

The coordinates of triangle ABC are

A (0, 2), B (2, 5), and C (−1, 7)

we know that

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal internal angles

The formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

step 1

Find the distance AB

substitute in the formula

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

d=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(2)^{2}}

dAB=\sqrt{13}\ units

step 2

Find the distance BC

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(7-5)^{2}+(-1-2)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(2)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}

dBC=\sqrt{13}\ units

step 3

Find the distance AC

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(7-2)^{2}+(-1-0)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(5)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}

dAC=\sqrt{26}\ units

step 4

Compare the length sides

dAB=\sqrt{13}\ units

dBC=\sqrt{13}\ units

dAC=\sqrt{26}\ units

dAB=dBC

therefore

Is an isosceles triangle

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

(AC)^{2} =(AB)^{2}+(BC)^{2}

substitute

(\sqrt{26})^{2} =(\sqrt{13})^{2}+(\sqrt{13})^{2}

26=13+13

26=26 -----> is true

therefore

Is an isosceles right triangle
