A dog is leashed to the corner of a house with a 20 ft long leash. How much running area does the dog have? Round your answer to

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The dog's running area is approximately 942 feet².

Step-by-step explanation:

The dog is leashed to a fixed point, the leash has a length of 20 ft, therefore he can rotate around that point at the maximum distance equal to the length of the leash. This pattern forms a circle, but there is an obstruction, which is the corner of the house. This obstruction takes an arc of the original circle, so the running area of the dog is the area of the whole circle minus the area of the arc formed by the corner of the house.

$\text{dog's area} = \text{circle's area} - \text{arc's area}\\\\\text{dog's area} = pi*(20^2) - \frac{90}{360}*pi*(20^2)\\\\\text{dog's area} = \frac{270}{360}*pi*(400)\\\\\text{dog's area} = 942.477\text{ feet}^2$

The dog's running area is approximately 942 feet².

A parabola has a focus of F(2, -0.5) and a directrix of y=-1.5 P(x,y) represents any point on the parabola, while D(x, -1.5) rep

prohojiy [21]

The sketch of the parabola is attached below

We have the focus $(a,b) = (2, -0.5)$
The point $P(x,y)$
The directrix, c at $y=-1.5$

The steps to find the equation of the parabola are as follows

Step 1
Find the distance between the focus and the point P using Pythagoras. We have two coordinates; $(2, -0.5)$ and $(x,y)$ .
We need the vertical and horizontal distances to find the hypotenuse (the diagram is shown in the second diagram).
The distance between the focus and point P is given by
$\sqrt{ (x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2} }$

Step 2
Find the distance between the point P to the directrix $c$ . It is a vertical distance between y and c, expressed as $y-c$

Step 3
The equation of parabola is then given as
$\sqrt{ (x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2} }$ = $y-c$
$(x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2}= (y-c)^{2}$ ⇒ substituting a, b and c
$(x-2)^{2}+ (y--0.5)^{2} = (y--1.5)^{2}$
$(x-2)^{2}+ (y+0.5)^{2}= (y+1.5)^{2}$ ⇒Rearranging and making $y$ the subject gives

$y= \frac{ x^{2} }{2} -2x+1$
