An equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment with end points (3,0) and (-3,0) is

Mathematics

Norma-Jean [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x_1,y_1) = (3,0)

(x_2,y_2) = (-3,0)

Required

The equation of the perpendicular bisector.

First, calculate the midpoint of the given endpoints

(x,y) = 0.5(x_1 + x_2, y_1 + y_2)

(x,y) = 0.5(3-3, 0+ 0)

(x,y) = 0.5(0, 0)

Open bracket

(x,y) = (0.5*0, 0.5*0)

(x,y) = (0, 0)

Next, determine the slope of the given endpoints.

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{0 - 0}{-3- 3}

m = \frac{0}{-6}

m = 0

Next, calculate the slope of the perpendicular bisector.

When two lines are perpendicular, the relationship between them is:

m_2 = -\frac{1}{m_1}

In this case:

m = m_1 = 0

So:

m_2 = -\frac{1}{0}

m_2 = unde\ fined

Since the slope is unde\ fined, the equation is:

x = a

Where:

(x,y) = (a,b)

Recall that:

(x,y) = (0, 0)

So:

a = 0

Hence, the equation is:

x = 0

The distance BC from Tower 2 to the plane will be 14,065.5 ft and the height of the plane from the ground will be 5,720.9 ft.

<h3>What is a right-angle triangle?</h3>

It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function.

A plane is located at C on the diagram.

There are two towers located at A and B.

The distance between the towers is 7600 feet and angles of elevation are given.

Then in the right-angle triangle ΔADC, we have

\rm \tan 16 = \dfrac{H}{7600 + X}\\\\\\H = 0.2867(7600 +X)\\\\\\H = 0.2756\ X + 2179.2649 ...1

Then in the right-angle triangle ΔBDC, we have

\rm \tan24 = \dfrac{H}{ X}\\\\\\H = 0.4452\ X ...2

From equations 1 and 2, we have

0.4452X = 0.2756 X + 2179.2649

0.1696X = 2179.2649

            X = 12849.439 ≅ 12,849.4 ft

Then the distance BC from Tower 2 to the plane will be

\rm BC = \dfrac{12849.4}{\cos 24}\\\\\\BC = 14065.5 \ ft

Then the height of the plane from the ground will be

\rm H = 12849.4 \times  \tan 24 \\\\\\H = 5720.9 \ ft

The figure is shown below.

More about the right-angle triangle link is given below.

If y = 4x3 + 4x and dx dt = 3, find dy dt when x = 2.
Eva8 [605]
Dy/dx = dy/dt / dx/dt

dy/dx = 12x^2 + 4 

when x = 2 , dydx = 52

52 = dy/dt / 3

so dy/dt =  156 (answer)

RSB [31]

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have procent:

520 —-> 100%

572 ——> x%

So, it is:

520*x=572*100

X=57200/520=110%

110%-100%=10%
