Answer:

Distance between the two planes after 1 hour = 410 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A plane leaves and flies due north at 280 miles per hour. At

            the same time another plane takes off from the same airport

            and flies due east at a speed of 300 miles per hour.

To find - What is the distance between the two planes after 1 hour ?

Proof -

Given that , Plane 1 flies due north at a speed of 280 miles per hour.

So,

Total distance traveled in 1 hour = 280 miles

Also,

Plane 2 flies due east at a speed of 300 miles per hour.

So,

Total distance traveled in 1 hour = 300 miles.

The diagram is as follows :

Now,

We have to find the distance after 1 hour i.e. AC

In Triangle ABC ,

By using Pythagoras theorem, we get

AC² = BC² + AB²

⇒AC² = (300)² + (280)²

⇒AC² = 90,000 + 78,400

⇒AC² = 168,400

⇒AC = √168,400

⇒AC = 410.366 ≈ 410

∴ we get

Distance between the two planes after 1 hour = 410 miles

Find the area of the right triangle △DEF with the points D (0, 0), E (1, 1), and F.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The area of the triangle is  \sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Coordinates D (0, 0), E (1, 1)

Angle  ∠DEF = 60°

△DEF is a Right triangle

To Find:

The area of the triangle

Solution:

The area of the triangle is  = \frac{1}{2}(base \times height)

Here the base is Distance between D and E

calculation the distance using the distance formula, we get

DE  = \sqrt{(0-1)^2 + (0-1)^2}

DE =\sqrt{(-1) ^2 + (-1)^2

DE = \sqrt{1+1}

DE = \sqrt{2}

Base = \sqrt{2}

Height is DF

DF =tan(60^{\circ}) \times DE

DF = \sqrt{3} \times DE

DF = \sqrt{3} \times\sqrt{2}

Now, the area of the triangle is

= \frac{1}{2}({\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{2})

=\frac{1}{2}({\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} \sqrt{2})

=\frac{1}{2}(2\sqrt{3} )

=\sqrt{3}

Solve the quadratic equation for x. What is the product when the roots are multiplied? (x + 2)2 = 1
tekilochka [14]

Regroup terms

2(x + 2) = 1

Divided both sides by 2

x + 2 = 1/2

Subtract 2 from both sides

x = 1/2 - 2

Simplify 1/2 - 2 to -3/2

<u>x = -3/2</u>
