Answer:
B: 24ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle = (base x height)/2
Step 1: form an equation
a = (12ft x 4ft)/2
Step 2: solve equation
a = 48ft^2 / 2
a = 24ft^2
*the base is the measurement for the bottom of a triangle while height is the measurement of the length from the bottom to the top of a triangle*
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: f(x) = x^2 + 4x - 21.
This function has a graph which is a parabola that opens up.
Its vertex is found by completing the square:
x² + 4x + 4 - 4 - 21, or
(x + 2)² - 25
Comparing this to the standard equation
(x - h)² + k, we see that h = -2 and k = -25.
Thus, the vertex (and the minimum of this function) is (-2, -25).
Thus, the range is [-25, ∞ ). This being a polynomial function, it has no restrictions on the domain: the domain is (-∞, ∞ )
Divide the denominator by the numerator
Given:
Height of right triangle = 9 mi
Hypotenuse = 17.5 mi
Base of right triangle = Distance across lake
To find:
The distance across the lake.
Solution:
Using Pythagoras theorem:
In right triangle, square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Subtract 81 from both sides.
Taking square root on both sides.
⇒ base = 15
The distance across the lake 15 mi.
