If AD=6 and AB=24, find AC

ruslelena [56]

When a perpendicular is dropped from the right-angle (C) to the opposite side AB, the metric relations apply:
BD*BA=a^2 ..........................(1)
AD*AB=b^2...........................(2)
BD*DA=DC^2........................(3)

Given AD=6, AB=24, using metric relation (2) above, we have
b^2=6*24=144
=>
b=sqrt(144)=12

By the way, we conclude that this is a 30-60-90 triangle because b/AB=(1/2)=sin(B) => B=30 degrees.

Answer: b=12

At what point on the paraboloid y = x2 + z2 is the tangent plane parallel to the plane 3x + 2y + 7z = 2? (if an answer does not

Nikitich [7]

If $f(x, y, z) = c$ represent a family of surfaces for different values of the constant $c$ . The gradient of the function $f$ defined as $\nabla f$ is a vector normal to the surface $f(x, y, z) = c$ .

Given the paraboloid

$y = x^2 + z^2$ .

We can rewrite it as a scalar value function f as follows:

$f(x,y,z)=x^2-y+z^2=0$

The normal to the paraboloid at any point is given by:

$\nabla f= i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}(x^2-y+z^2) - j\frac{\partial}{\partial y}(x^2-y+z^2) + k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}(x^2-y+z^2) \\ \\ =2xi-j+2zk$

Also, the normal to the given plane $3x + 2y + 7z = 2$ is given by:

$3i+2j+7k$

Equating the two normal vectors, we have:

$2x=3\Rightarrow x= \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ -1=2 \\ \\ 2z=7\Rightarrow z= \frac{7}{2}$

Since, -1 = 2 is not possible, therefore there exist no such point on the paraboloid $y = x^2 + z^2$ such that the tangent plane is parallel to the plane 3x + 2y + 7z = 2.
