Answer:
FE = 30°
Step-by-step explanation:
arc FGC = arc FG + arc GB + arc BC
220° = 90° + arc GB + 70° . . substitute known values
60° = arc GB . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 160°
__
External angle A is half the difference of arcs EG and GB:
30° = (1/2)(arc FE +90° -60°) . . . substitute known values
60° = arc FE + 30° . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2 and simplify
30° = arc FE . . . . . . subtract 30°
_____
The key to this problem is the relationship between external angle A and the measures of the arcs it subtends.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+8) + (x-3) = 180-164
2x+5 = 16
x = 5.5
y = x-3 = 2.5°
Answers A, C, and D are written in standard form.
Answer B is NOT written correctly in standard form.
Answer:
t = 3; It takes the ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 6 seconds to fall back to the ground.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the axis of symmetry, we need to find the vertex by turning this equation into vertex form (this is y = a(x - c)² + d where (c, d) is the vertex). To do this, we can use the "completing the square" strategy.
h(t) = -16t² + 96t
= -16(t² - 6t)
= -16(t² - 6t + 9) - (-16) * 9
= -16(t - 3)² + 144
Therefore, we know that the vertex is (3, 144) so the axis of symmetry is t = 3. Since the coefficient of the squared term, -16, is negative, it means that the vertex is the maximum. We know that it takes the golf ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height (since the t value of the vertex is 3) and because the vertex is on the axis of symmetry, it would take 3 more seconds for the ball to fall to the ground, therefore it takes 3 + 3 = 6 seconds to fall to the ground. The final answer is "t = 3; It takes the ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 6 seconds to fall back to the ground.".
