A support cable connects the top of a bridge tower to the road below.

Mathematics
1 answer:
levacccp [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

the road is 142 ft away from the center of the bridge tower.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the bridge tower is standing vertical to the the road, therefore, the angle made by it is a right angle.

Therefore, the triangle made by cable(hypotenuse) and bridge tower (Perpendicular) on road (base) must be a right angled triangle.

Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem, we have

H² = P²+ B²

P²=H²-B²

P²=(245.9)²-(200.7)²

P=√20186.32=142.07

Write the equation in standard form for the circle that has a diameter with endpoints (6, -9)
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition a diameter goes through the center of the circle.  So if we find the midpoint of the diameter, we will have the h and k of the center.  Then we will use one of the points ON the circle as x and y and solve for r.  Here goes:

M=(\frac{6+(-6)}{2},\frac{-9+(-9)}{2}) to get a midpoint/center of (0, -9).

The standard form of a circle is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Filling in with h, k, x, and y:

(6-0)^2+(-9-(-9))^2=r^2 which simplifies to

6^2+0^2=r^2  so

r^2=36

Now we can write the equation of the circle:

x^2+(y+9)^2=36

Feliz [49]

Answer:

(4,7) up 3 units and right 6 units is (10,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

(4,7) goes up 3 units, which becomes (4,10). (Go up: 7 + 3 = 10)

(4,10) moves to the right 6 units, which becomes (10,10). (Right: 4 + 6 = 10)
