Triangle DEF has vertices D(0,0), E(7,0), and F(3,7).

Mathematics

Answer:

(3, 1.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point at which the vertices of a triangle meet is known as the orthocenter of the triangle. The orthocenter passes through the vertex of the triangle and is perpendicular to the opposite sides.

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

The slope of the line joining D(0,0), F(3,7) is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-0}=\frac{7}{3}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining D and F is -3/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining D and F and passes through vertex E(7, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)\\\\y=-\frac{3}{7}x+3 \ .\ .\ .\ (1)

The slope of the line joining E(7,0), and F(3,7). is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-7}=-\frac{7}{4}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining E and F is 4/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining E and F and passes through vertex D(0, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{4}{7} (x-0)\\\\y=\frac{4}{7} x\ .\ .\ .\ (2)

The point of intersection of equation 1 and equation 2 is the orthocenter. Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 3, y = 1.7

What is 2x^2(x-5) divided by 10x when x + 10?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

1000

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²(x - 5) ÷ 10x

x = 10

2(10)²(10 - 5) ÷ 10(10)

20²(5) ÷ 100

100² ÷ 100

1. From a circular sheet of radius 18 cm, two circles of radii 4.5 cm and a rectangle of length 4 cm and breadth 1 cm are remove
telo118 [61]

Area of a circle = PI x r^2

Area of sheet = 22/7 x 18^2 = 1,018.29 square cm.

Area of small circle = 22/7 x 4.5^2 = 63.64 square cm.

There are 2 small circles so total area of the circles are 63.64 x 2 = 127.28 square cm.

Area of rectangle = l x w = 4 x 1 = 4 square cm.

Total area of cutouts = 127.28 + 4 = 131.28 square cm.

Area of sheet left, subtract area of cutouts fro area of sheet:

1018.29 - 131.28 = 887.01 square cm.

Round everything as needed.
