By applying Pythagoras theorem,we get

(hypotenuse)^2=(base)^2+(perpendicular)^2

=>(h)^2=(7)^2+(4)^2

=>(h)^2=49+16

=>(h)^2=65

=>h=√65

Therefore, option B is correct,i.e.,√65

Plot the following points to create a rectangle.

Tanya [424]

Answer:

(5, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The three coordinates of a triangle are given as:

(5,3), (-5,3), (-5,-1).

To find:

The missing vertex = ?

Solution:

Let us label the vertices:

A (5,3),

B(-5,3),

C(-5,-1).

Let the missing vertex be ( $x, y$ ).

Let us recall the properties of a rectangle.

The <em>opposite sides</em> of the rectangle are equal and parallel to each other.

Let us consider the side AB, we can see that only x coordinate is changed from A to B.

Let us consider the side BC, we can see that only y coordinate is changed from B to C.

A and B are adjacent vertices.

Similarly the opposite vertices will be C and D.

Same pattern will be followed in CD as that of AB.

x coordinate will be changed by same difference as that of AB.

Change in x coordinate from D to C = $-5-x$

Change in x coordinate from A to B = $-5-5 =-10$

Equating them:

$-5-x=-10\\\Rightarrow x = 5$

Same pattern is followed in BC and AD.

Their change in y coordinate will be same.

$-1-3=y-3\\\Rightarrow y =-1$

Missing vertex is <em>(5, -1)</em>.

Please refer to the attached image for the rectangle.

1. The position of a particle moving along a coordinate axis is given by: s(t) = t^2 - 5t + 1. a) Find the speed of the particle

zimovet [89]

Answer: $\left | 2t-5\right |,\ 2,\ 2t-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Position of the particle moving along the coordinate axis is given by

$s(t)=t^2-5t+1$

Speed of the particle is given by

$\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{ds}{dt}\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{d(t^2-5t+1)}{dt}\\\\\Rightarrow v=\left | 2t-5\right |$

Acceleration of the particle is

$\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}\\\\\Rightarrow a=2$

velocity can be negative, but speed cannot

$\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{ds}{dt}\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{d(t^2-5t+1)}{dt}\\\\\Rightarrow v=2t-5$
