An observer for a radar station is located at the origin of a coordinate system. Find the

Find the area of the following figure. Explain how you found your answer.

iragen [17]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that each square on the grid represents 1 cm

First find the area of the two triangles

For the larger one: A = bh/2

A = 3 x 3 / 2

= 4.5 cm^2

For the smaller one : A = bh/2

A = 2 x 2 / 2

= 2 cm^2

For the rectangle : A = lw

A = 4 x 5

= 20 cm^2

Add them all up to get the area

4.5 + 2 + 20 = 26.5 cm^2

Hope this helps!

Two train stations are 50 miles apart. At noon, a train starts out from each station heading for each other. Just as they pull o

Daniel [21]

Answer: 100 miles

Step-by-step explanation: How much time does the bird spend in flight? If you represent the problem in terms of the amount of time the bird is flying, then a solution is fairly straightforward. The two trains are 50 miles apart, and are approaching each other at a relative speed of 50 mph (25 + 25), so it will take one hour for them to meet. If the bird spends one hour flying at 100 mph, then it will traverse 100 miles before the trains meet.

What are the values of x and y. In the given figure?

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

y = 52 degrees

x = 7 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! So, we can first easily find out the measurement of y because of the Base Angles Theorem.

[ The base angles theorem converse states if two angles in a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are also congruent. The Isosceles Triangle Theorem states that the perpendicular bisector of the base of an isosceles triangle is also the angle bisector of the vertex angle. ]

- www.ck12.org

So basically, in an iscoceles triangle, the base angles are equal so therefore, y = 52 degrees

Now we have to solve for x. We know that the sum of the angles in a triangle are 180 so we have to make an equation:

52 + y = 14x + 6 {<em>We know that y is 52 degrees so we should plug that in</em>}

52 + 52 = 14x + 6 --> Now we should simplify:

104 = 14x + 6

98 = 14x

x = 7 degrees

Mount Belinda is the highest point in the South Sandwich Islands, with a peak of 1,370 meters above sea level. The South Sandwic

AveGali [126]

Question is not complete. Complete question is;

Mount Belinda is the highest point in the South Sandwich Islands, with a peak at about 1,370 meters above sea level. The South Sandwich Trench, which lies about 100 kilometers (62 miles) to the east of the South Sandwich Islands, is about 8,428 meters below sea level (at its lowest point).

Part A: What is the difference in elevations between Mount Belinda and the South Sandwich Trench?

Part B: Is the elevation halfway between the peak of Mount Belinda and the South Sandwich Trench above sea level or below sea level? Give your explanation without calculating the exact value.

Part C: What elevation is halfway between the peak Mount Belinda and the South Sandwich Trench?

Answer:

A) 100478.86 metres

B) Explained below.

C) 50239.43 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

I have attached an image showing the elevations as depicted in the question.

MB represents peak of Mount Belinda while SS represents lowest point of South Sandwich Islands.

A) Now, total vertical distance from peak of MB to lowest point of SS is;

8428 + 1370 = 9798 metres

Since the horizontal distance between MB and SS is 100000 metres, then we can use pythagoras theorem to find the Elevation between MB and SS.

If the Elevation is x.

Thus;

x = √(9798² + 100000²)

x = 100478.86 metres

B) The Elevation between peak of MB and lowest point of SS will be halfway below the sea level because the distance from the lowest point of SS from the sea level is 5 times bigger than the distance from peak of MB to the sea level.

C) The halfway Elevation between peak MB and lowest SS will be;

100478.86/2 = 50239.43 metres
