The distance between two positions with longitudes A and B is given by ||A| - |B|| if the two positions are at the same side of the meridian (0 degrees longitude) and |A| + |B| if both positions are at different sides of the meridian.
Given that <span>Moscow is at 37.62 degrees longitude and Brasilia is at -47.87
degrees longitude, thus the two cities are at different sides of the meridian.
Therefore, the distance </span><span>(in degrees) between the longitude lines of Moscow and Brasilia</span> is |37.62| + |-47.87| = 37.62 + 47.87 = 85.49
Answer:did you check and see if anybody asked this question before??
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 
y²
Step-by-step explanation:
Any point (x, y ) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix
Using the distance formula, then
= | x + 3 |
Squaring both sides
(x - 3)² + y² = (x + 3)² ← expanding both sides
x² - 6x + 9 + y² = x² + 6x + 9 ← subtract x² + 6x + 9 from both sides
- 12x + y² = 0 ( subtract y² from both sides )
- 12x = - y² ( divide both sides by - 12 )
x = y²
