Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan A = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{BC}{AC}$ = $\frac{7}{8}$ , then

∠ A = $tan^{-1}$ ( $\frac{7}{8}$ ) ≈ 41° ( to the nearest degree )

The sum of the angles in the triangle = 180° , then

∠ B + 41° + 90° = 180°

∠ B + 131° = 180° ( subtract 131° from both sides )

∠ B = 49°

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

AB² = BC² + AC² = 7² + 8² = 49 + 64 = 113 ( take square root of both sides )

AB = $\sqrt{113}$ ≈ 10.6 ( to the nearest tenth )

First if a>0 sqrta=a^(1/2), and (a^p)^q=a^pxq

sqrt(a^4/9)= (a^4/9)^1/2=a^4/9x1/2=<span>a^(2/9)
so the answer is </span><span>a^(2/9)</span>

The distance traveled, in feet, of a ball dropped from a tall building is modeled by the equation d(t) = 16t2 where d equals the

nignag [31]

Assuming that by "16t2" you mean $16t^2$ :

First of all, let's compute the position at the two required times:

$d(2)=16\cdot 2^2 = 16*4 = 64$

$d(5)=16\cdot 5^2 = 16*25 = 400$

So, the ball traveled a total distance of $\Delta d = 400-64 = 336$ , during the time $\Delta t = 5-2 = 3$ .

The average rate of change is the ratio between these two:

$\frac{\Delta d}{\Delta t} = \frac{336}{3} = 112$

Answer:

13. c,

14. a.

Step-by-step explanation:

13. The length of a side PQ with coordinates of

P as (x,y) and Q as (w,z)

is: $\sqrt{(x-w)^{2} +(y-z)^{2} }$

so, the length of the side AB =

$\sqrt{(5-5)^{2}+(-2+7)^{2} } =\sqrt{0^{2}+5^{2} } =5$

the length of side BC =

$\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(-7+2)^{2} } =\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(-5)^{2} } =\sqrt{4^{2}+5^{2} }$

the length of side AC=

$\sqrt{(5-1)^{2} +(-2+2)^{2} } =\sqrt{4^{2} } =4$

now, the easiest one will be when the vertices are on the coordinate axes.

so, option c will be the most appropriate one.

14. If u see the figure clearly, the lines l and FH are parallel.

the parallel postulate, i.e, the alternate interior angles will always be congruent.

here, the alternate interior angles are angle1 and angle4.

therefore to prove this step, he used parallel postulate as a reason.

so, the correct option is "a"
