Find the distance along an arc on the surface of the earth that subtends a central angle of 1 minute(s) (1 minute = 1/60 degree)

. The radius of the earth is 3960 miles. Round to the thousandths. (3 decimal places)

Length of distance of arc = 2πr × (∅/360)

∅ = 1/60 × 360 = 6⁰

Length = 2 × 22/7 × 3960(6/60)

Length = 44/7 × 3960 × 1/10

Length = 44/7 × 396

Length = 2489.142 cm

The general form of the equation of a circle is x2+y2−4x−8y−5=0.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

centre = (2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Given

x² + y² - 4x - 8y - 5 = 0

Rearrange the x/y terms together and add 5 to both sides

x² - 4x + y² - 8y = 5

Use the method of completing the square on both the x/y terms

add ( half the coefficient of the x/y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 2)x + 4 + y² + 2(- 4)y + 16 = 5 + 4 + 16

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 25 ← in standard form

with centre (2, 4) and r = \sqrt{25} = 5

Find the indicated sum for each sequence. S9 of –9, 36, –144, 576, ...
gogolik [260]

This is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of -4:

-9*-4=36

36*-4=-144

-144*-4=576

Thus, the 9th term would be equal to:

(-4)^5*576 which is -589824

The exponent 5 comes from the fact that 4 terms have already been displayed and we need 9-4 more terms to get to the 9th term. Since we are multiplying by -4 only, the 5 remains an exponent

Give an example of tangents in the real world that have not been presented in this lesson.
german

Answer:

Hey! Sorry im too late lol but here-

Step-by-step explanation:

Example of tangent in the real world-

When a stone gets tied at one end of a string & the other end is rotated, then the stone will form a circle.

How you know the tangent and radius are perpendicular:

The radius is formed vertically and is completely straight, while the tangent is completely straight but horizontal. You can draw a right triangle angle between the radius and tangent line by adding a third line, and a right angle is 90 degrees. So, this forms a perpendicular line.

Hope this helped :))
