How can the scaling of a line graph be used to mislead a reader?

1 answer:

Anna [14]2 years ago

Misleading may be present even t<span>hough all graphs may share the same data, and even the </span>slope<span> of the </span><span>data is the same. If the way the data is plotted is not correct, it can change the visual appearance of the angle made by the line on the graph. This is so because each plot has different scales on its vertical axis. As the scales are not correctly shown then there is where the misleading appears.</span>

What is the value of x to the nearest tenth?

jenyasd209 [6]

The segment of length x bisects the chord of length 19.2.
The diameter is 24, so the radius is 12.
You have a right triangle with hypotenuse 12, and one leg 19.2/2 = 9.6

9.6^2 + x^2 = 12^2

92.16 + x^2 = 144

x^2 = 51.84

x = 7.2

PLEASE HELP WITH GEOMETRY IM STUCK!?}

Ilya [14]

Answer:

13.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the trigonometric ratios

Sine = Opposite over Hypotenuse (SOH)

Cosine = Adjacent over Hypotenuse (CAH)

Tangent = Opposite over Adjacent (TOA)

Now lets look back at the question

We are given an angle and its adjacent side length (11) and we need to find the hypotenuse

The hypotenuse and adjacent sides corresponds with the trig function cosine so we will use cosine to solve for x

( remember that cosine = adjacent over hypotenuse )

$cos(37)=\frac{11}{x}$

step 1 multiply each side by x

$cos(37)*x=xcos(37)\\\frac{11}{x} *x=11$

now we have $xcos(37)=11$

step 2 divide each side by cos(37)

$\frac{xcos(37)}{cos(37)} =x\\\frac{11}{cos(37)} =13.77349\\$

we're left with x = 13.77439

Our last step would be to round to the nearest tenth

We would get that the answer is 13.8
