Answer:

12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 = b^2 + c^2

20^2= 16^2 + c^2

400= 256 + c^2

400-256= c^2

144 = c^2

c = √144

c= 12

Answer: The

Step-by-step explanation: First we look at our right angles of the shape, Next you analyze your formula and use it to form your answer(formula: Base X Height).Then for the final step you would multiply 9x5=45.We wouldn't be doing all of them because that would be doing Total Area.

The height of the tunnel at the center is 54 ft, and the vertical clearance must be 18 ft at a point 8 ft from the center. Find
IrinaVladis [17]

the standard form for a horizontal ellipse is

X^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1

Substitute 54 for b and and use (8,18) as the

point to find a

x=8

y=18

8^2/a^2 + 18^2/54^2 =1

64/a^2 +  324/2916 = 1

324/2916 reduces to 1/9

64/a^2 + 1/9 = 1

64/a^2= 1-1/9

64/a^2 = 8/9

64*9/8 = a^2

576/8 = 72

A^2 = 72

A = square root(72) = 8.485

 So formula

would be x^2/72 + y^2/2916 =1

Is a vertical line a function
topjm [15]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation 1)A vertical line can be represented by the equation x=a, where a can be any number. If you think about it, there is no y in the function, this making it not a function.

Explanation 2) For a line to be a function it has to pass the vertical line test, so you will draw a vertical line through the function and if it touches more than one point then it is not a function. In this case if you draw a vertical line through a vertical line there are an infinite number of places where the lines intercept, so it is not a function.

NEED HELP PLEASE!
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

(x + (3+5i))^2 = x^2 + 6x + (10x+30)i - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex numbers identity:

The complex numbers identity is:

i^2 = -1

Square of the sum:

(x + y)^2 = x^2 + 2xy + y^2

In this question:

(x + (3+5i))^2

x^2 + 2x(3+5i) + (3+5i)^2

x^2 + 6x + 10xi + 9 + 30i + 25i^2

x^2 + 6x + 9 + (10x+30)i - 25

x^2 + 6x + (10x+30)i - 16

So

(x + (3+5i))^2 = x^2 + 6x + (10x+30)i - 16
