Answer:

Using vector concepts, it is found that:

1. The horizontal component of the vector is 5.

2. The magnitude is of 14.87.

3. The vertical component of the vector is 2.

-------------

A vector (x,y) has x as horizontal component and y as vertical component.

The magnitude is  

Given two points, a vector is formed by the subtraction of the endpoint by the start point.

-------------

Item 1:

The horizontal component of the start is -3.

The horizontal component of the end is 2.

Thus, the horizontal component of the vector is  

-------------

Item 2:

Starts at (1,9), ends at (6,-5), thus, the coordinates are:

The magnitude is:

The magnitude is of 14.87.

-------------

Item 3:

The vertical component of the start is -10.

The vertical component of the end is -8.

Thus, the vertical component of the vector is

7. If the longer leg of a right triangle is twice as long as the shorter leg, what is the ratio of
kicyunya [14]

Answer: The ratio is 2.39, which means that the larger acute angle is 2.39 times the smaller acute angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose that the "legs" of a triangle rectangle are the cathati.

if L is the length of the shorter leg, 2*L is the length of the longest leg.

Now you can remember the relation:

Tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

Then there is one acute angle calculated as:

Tan(θ)  =  (shorter leg)/(longer leg)

Tan(φ) = (longer leg)/(shorter leg)

And we want to find the ratio between the measure of the larger acute angle and the smaller acute angle.

Then we need to find θ and φ.

Tan(θ) = L/(2*L)

Tan(θ) = 1/2

θ = Atan(1/2) = 26.57°

Tan(φ) = (2*L)/L

Tan(φ) = 2

φ = Atan(2) = 63.43°

Then the ratio between the larger acute angle and the smaller acute angle is:

R = (63.43°)/(26.57°) = 2.39

This means that the larger acute angle is 2.39 times the smaller acute angle.

Based on its degree, what kind of polynomial is this?<br> h(x)=4x^4+2x-5
MissTica
To estimate the degree of a polynomial, you just have to take a look at the highest power in the expression. Since here, that is number 4, then it means that this polynomial is a fourth degree polynomial, or quartic polynomial, if you want to sound smart. :)
