Hey there :)
Now lets name each house
A B C D E F
500ft <-> 500ft <-> 500ft <-> 500ft <-> 500ft <-> 2000ft
Let's say the bus stops at A
= 0 ( from A ) + 500 ( from B ) + 500 + 500 ( from C ) + 500 + 500 + 500 ( from D ) + 500 + 500 + 500 + 500 ( from E ) + 500 + 500 + 500 + 500 + 2000 ( from F )
= 0 + 500 + 1000 + 1500 + 2000 + 4000
= 9000 ft
at B
= 500 ( from A ) + 0 ( from B ) + 500 ( from C ) + 500 + 500 ( from D ) + 500 + 500 + 500 ( from E ) + 500 + 500 + 500 + 2000 ( from F )
= 500 + 0 + 500 + 1000 + 1500 + 3500
= 7000 ft
at C
= 500 ( from A ) + 500 + 500 ( from B ) + 0 ( from C ) + 500 ( from D ) + 500 + 500 ( from E ) + 500 + 500 + 2000 ( from F )
= 500 + 1000 + 0 + 500 + 1000 + 3000
= 6000 ft
Do the same for D , E and F
at D
= 6000 ft
at E
= 7000 ft
at F
= 15000 ft
You will find that the bus should stop at either C or D to make the sum of distances from every house to the stop as small as possible.
Answer:
<em>Proof below</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Right Triangles</u>
In any right triangle, i.e., where one of its internal angles is 90°, some interesting relations stand. One of the most-used is Pythagora's Theorem.
In a right triangle with shorter sides a and b, and longest side c, called the hypotenuse, the following equation is satisfied:

The image provided in the question shows a line passing through points A(0,4) and B(3,0) that forms a right triangle with both axes.
The origin is marked as C(0,0) and the point M is the midpoint of the segment AB. We have to prove.

First, find the coordinates of the midpoint M(xm,ym):


Thus, the midpoint is M( 1.5 , 2 )
Calculate the distance CM:


CM=2.5
Now find the distance AB:

AB=5
AB/2=2.5
It's proven CM is half of AB
Answer:
x = 29 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that all of the angles inside of a right triangle add up to 180. We also know that a right angle is 90 degrees. We can do 61 + 90 = 151. 180 - 151 = 29. This means that x = 29 degrees.
Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
recognize that this is a right triangle with one of the internal angles = 45°. This means that the other angle not shown is 180 - 90 - 45 = 45°
This makes the triangle an isosceles triangle.
If so, x must be the same length as the other side adjacent to 90°
i.e x = 7
