Two of the vertices of a rectangle are (1, −6) and (−8, −6). If the rectangle has a perimeter of 26 units, what are the coordina

pantera1 [17]

Answer: $(x_1,y_1)=(1,-2)$

$(x_2,y_2)=(-8,-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Co ordinates of vertices(1,-6) and (-8,-6)

When two points is given then Length of two points is given by

$L=\sqrt{\left ( x_2-x_1\right )^2+\left ( y_2-y_1\right )^2}$

$L=\sqrt{\left ( 1-\left ( -8\right )\right )^2+\left ( -6+6\right )^2}$

$L=\sqrt{9^2}=9 units$

Perimeter of rectangle is =26 units

Let the other side be x

thus

$2\left ( x+9\right )=26$

x+9=13

x=4 units

therefore to get the other two co ordinates

such that the length of that side is 4 units is

$(x_1,y_1)=(1,-2)$

$(x_2,y_2)=(-8,-2)$

Horizontal distance will remain same only vertical distance will change in given co ordinates to obtain the remaining two co ordinates

To verify the above two distance between two points must be 13 units

What is the volume of the oblique cube

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{V=\dfrac{1600\pi}{3}\ cm^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a cone:

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2H$

r - radius

H - height

We have r = 10cm and H = 16cm. Substitute:

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi(10^2)(16)=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi(100)(16)=\dfrac{1600\pi}{3}\ cm^3$

Where should the point P be chosen on line segment AB so as to maximize the angle θ? (Assume a = 4 units, b = 5 units, and c = 9

taurus [48]

From the figure, let the distance of point P from point A on line segment AB be x and let the angle opposite side a be M and the angle opposite side c be N.

Using pythagoras theorem,
$\tan M= \frac{a}{b-x} \\ \\ M=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{a}{b-x}\right)$
and
$\tan N= \frac{c}{x} \\ \\ N=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{c}{x}\right)$

Angle θ is given by
$\theta=180-M-N \\ \\ =180-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{a}{b-x}\right)-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{c}{x}\right)$

Given that a = 4 units, b = 5 units, and c = 9 units, thus
$\theta=180-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{4}{5-x}\right)-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{9}{x}\right)$

To maximixe angle θ, the differentiation of <span>θ with respect to x must be equal to zero.
i.e.
$\frac{d\theta}{dx} = -\frac{4}{x^2-10x+41} + \frac{9}{x^2+81} =0 \\ \\ -4(x^2+81)+9(x^2-10x+41)=0 \\ \\ -4x^2-324+9x^2-90x+369=0 \\ \\ 5x^2-90x+45=0 \\ \\ x^2-18x+9=0 \\ \\ x=9\pm6 \sqrt{2}$

Given that x is a point on line segment AB, this means that x is a positive number less than 5.

Thus
$x=9-6 \sqrt{2}=0.5147$

Therefore, The distance from A of point P, so that </span>angle θ is maximum is 0.51 to two decimal places.

Factor: 2x + 2y<br> Show work please

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

2(x + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can pull out a 2 from the expression.

So divide 2x by 2 and 2y by 2.

2x/2 = x

2y/2 = y

2(x + y)
