Answer:

22.43

Step-by-step explanation:

three points ==> it's a triangle

so we will just have to calculate the length of each side

U & V has the same y-coordinate, which means UV is a horizontal line ==>

UV = 3 - (-2) = 5

V & W has the same x-coordinate, which means VW is a vertical line ==>

VW = 4 - (-4) = 8

UW is not a horizontal line nor a vertical line, so we will have to calculate it using distance formula

UW = sqrt { [3 - (-2)]^2 + [-4 - 4]^2 } = sqrt{25 + 64} = sqrt(89) ~~ 9.43

so the perimeter of the polygon is UV + VW + UW = 5 + 8 + 9.43 = 22.43

The coordinates of each rectangle ABCD are A (0,2) B (2,4) C (3,3) D (1,1). Find the distance of each side of the rectangle then
EastWind [94]

AB = CD = √8 ≈ 2.8 units

BC = AD = √2 ≈ 1.4 units

Area of the rectangle ABCD = 3.92 units²

Perimeter of the rectangle ABCD = 8.4 units

<h3>How to Find the Area and Perimeter of a Rectangle?</h3>

Given the coordinates of vertices of rectangle ABCD as:

  • A(0,2)
  • B(2,4)
  • C(3,3)
  • D(1,1)

To find the area and perimeter, use the distance formula to find the distance between A and B, and B and C.

Using the distance formula, we have the following:

AB = √[(2−0)² + (4−2)²]

AB = √[(2)² + (2)²]

AB = √8 ≈ 2.8 units

CD = √8 ≈ 2.8 units

BC = √[(2−3)² + (4−3)²]

BC = √[(−1)² + (1)²]

BC = √2 ≈ 1.4 units

AD = √2 ≈ 1.4 units

Area of the rectangle ABCD = (AB)(BC) = (2.8)(1.4) = 3.92 units²

Perimeter of the rectangle ABCD = 2(AB + BC) = 2(2.8 + 1.4) = 8.4 units

Round 1.3981 to 3 significant figures
Scorpion4ik [409]
The answer would be 1.40. The 3 significant figure are 1.39 and it wants us to round so we look at the 8 in 1.3981 and since 8 > 5 we know to round up.

Calculus 1 question I need help with
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = e^(8x⁵−8x)

Since f(x) is continuous:

lim(x→1) f(x) = f(1)

lim(x→1) f(x) = 1
