What is the mDEF? plz help

Mathematics
1 answer:
Paladinen [302]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

m∠DEF = 148°

Step-by-step explanation:

The total sum of angles inside a triangle is 180°

m∠FDE + m∠EFD + m∠DEF = 180°

We can also see that because two sides are congruent, their angles are also congruent, so we can solve for x

m∠FDE = m∠EFD

2x + 8 = 3x + 4; subtract 2x from both sides

8 = x + 4; subtract 4 from both sides

x = 4; now we can substitute into equations

m∠FDE = m∠EFD;

2(4) + 8 = 3(4) + 4

8 + 8 = 12 + 4; 16=16; therefore = m∠FDE = m∠EFD = 16

To solve for m∠DEF

m∠FDE + m∠EFD + m∠DEF = 180°

16 + 16 + m∠DEF = 180

m∠DEF = 148°

If an object has an acceleration of 7 m/s, and a mass of 3 kg, what is its force?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

force = 21 kg m/s^2 = 21 N

Step-by-step explanation:

If an object has mass (m)  3 kg, and its acceleration (a) is 7 m/s^2, its force is given by Newton's second law of motion: Force = M * a

Force = 3 kg * 7 m/s^2= 21 kg * m/s^2

This combinations of units (kg * m/s^2) is defined as Newtons in physics and abbreviated "N".

So we can say that the force on this object is of magnitude 21 N

The focus of a parabola is (0, -3) and the directrix is y = 3. What is the equation of the parabola?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The equation of the parabola is y = -12\cdot x^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the directrix is of the form y = a, the parabola is vertical. The vertex of the parabola (V(x,y)) is the midpoint between the focus (F(x,y)) and a point of the directrix (P(x,y)), that is to say:

V(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot F(x,y) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot P(x,y) (1)

If we know that F(x,y) = (0, -3) and P(x,y) = (0, 3), then the coordinates of the vertex of the parabola:

V(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (0, -3) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot (0, 3)

V(x,y) = (0, 0)

The vertex factor (p) is the distance of the focus with respect to the vertex:

p = \sqrt{[F(x,y)-V(x,y)]\,\bullet \,[F(x,y)-V(x,y)]} (2)

If we know that F(x,y) = (0, -3) and V(x,y) = (0, 0), then the vertex factor is:

p = \sqrt{0^{2}+(-3)^{2}}

p = -3

The equation of the parabola in the vertex form is described below:

y - k = 4\cdot p \cdot (x-h)^{2} (3)

Where:

x - Independent variable.

y - Dependent variable.

h, k - Coordinates of the vertex.

If we know that (h,k) = (0, 0) and p = -3, then the equation of the parabola is y = -12\cdot x^{2}.

Could anyone help me out, it’s would mean a lot.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular, they create 4 90° angles. Meaning, in this case, that m<DBC = 90 and m<DBA = 90.

We're given that m<DBE = 2x - 1 and that m<CBE = 5x - 42.

The sum of angles DBE and CBE = m<DBC = 90°

We can add the two angles and set it equal to 90 to find x

2x - 1 + 5x - 42 = 90\\7x - 43 = 90\\7x = 133\\x = \frac{133}{7} =19
