A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC b

elow is equal to the measure of the exterior angle.
Step 1: m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)
Step 2: m∠p − m∠o = 90 degrees (alternate interior angles)
Step 3: Therefore, m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = m∠o + m∠p
Step 4: So, m∠m + m∠n = m∠p

In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected?

Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)

Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (adjacent angles)

Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (alternate exterior angles)

Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠ p = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

Answer:

Given : A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC  is equal to the measure of the exterior angle

The base of the triangle extends into a straight line.

The angle formed between this straight line and the edge of the triangle is marked as p.

The angle adjacent to p is marked as o, and the other two angles inside the triangle are marked as m and n.

Step 1: m∠m + m∠n + m∠p = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)  Step 2:  m∠p + m∠o = 180 degrees (adjacent supplementary angles)

Step 3: Therefore, m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = m∠o + m∠p

Step 4: So, m∠m + m∠n = m∠p

To Find : In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected?

Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 degrees (sum of angles in a triangle)

Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (adjacent angles)

Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (alternate exterior angles) Step 2; m∠p − m∠o = 90 degrees (alternate interior angles)

Solution :

student first make a mistake in 1st step.

Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 degrees (sum of angles in a triangle)

∠p is the exterior angle   he used ∠p instead of  ∠o

Step 1: m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)

Step 2:  m∠p + m∠o = 180 degrees (adjacent supplementary angles)

Step 3: Therefore, m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = m∠o + m∠p

Step 4: So, m∠m + m∠n = m∠p

What is the distance between (22,-3) and (1, -3)?
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Distance between two points</h2>

The y-value of the two points is unchanged. So, the line is parralel to x-axis.

The distance will be the diffrence between the x-co ordinates.

\sf Distance = 1 - (-2\dfrac{1}{2})

             \sf =1+\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\= \dfrac{2}{2}+\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{2}\\\\=3\dfrac{1}{2}

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h ( t ) = − 4.
Oliga [24]

Answer:

\displaystyle 1)48.2    \:  \: \text{sec}

\rm \displaystyle  2)3021.6 \: m

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Question-1:</h3>

so when <u>flash down</u><u> </u>occurs the rocket will be in the ground in other words the elevation(height) from ground level will be 0 therefore,

to figure out the time of flash down we can set h(t) to 0 by doing so we obtain:

\displaystyle  - 4.9 {t}^{2}  + 229t + 346 = 0

to solve the equation can consider the quadratic formula given by

\displaystyle x =  \frac{ - b \pm  \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4 ac} }{2a}

so let our a,b and c be -4.9,229 and 346 Thus substitute:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - (229) \pm  \sqrt{ {229}^{2} - 4.( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}

remove parentheses:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ {229}^{2} - 4.( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}

simplify square:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ 52441- 4( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}

simplify multiplication:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ 52441- 6781.6} }{ - 9.8}

simplify Substraction:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ 45659.4} }{ - 9.8}

by simplifying we acquire:

\displaystyle t = 48.2  \:  \:  \: \text{and} \quad  - 1.5

since time can't be negative

\displaystyle t = 48.2

hence,

at <u>4</u><u>8</u><u>.</u><u>2</u><u> </u>seconds splashdown occurs

<h3>Question-2:</h3>

to figure out the maximum height we have to figure out the maximum Time first in that case the following formula can be considered

\displaystyle x _{  \text{max}} =  \frac{ - b}{2a}

let a and b be -4.9 and 229 respectively thus substitute:

\displaystyle t _{  \text{max}} =  \frac{ - 229}{2( - 4.9)}

simplify which yields:

\displaystyle t _{  \text{max}} =  23.4

now plug in the maximum t to the function:

\rm \displaystyle  h(23.4)- 4.9 {(23.4)}^{2}  + 229(23.4)+ 346

simplify:

\rm \displaystyle  h(23.4)  =  3021.6

hence,

about <u>3</u><u>0</u><u>2</u><u>1</u><u>.</u><u>6</u><u> </u>meters high above sea-level the rocket gets at its peak?
