Write i in trigonometric form. Since |i| = 1 and arg(i) = π/2, we have

i = exp(i π/2) = cos(π/2) + i sin(π/2)

By DeMoivre's theorem,

i² = exp(i π/2)² = exp(i π) = cos(π) + i sin(π)

and it follows that i² = -1 since cos(π) = -1 and sin(π) = 0.

Hurrrryyyyy plllzzz. Determine the equation of the line that passes through the given points

pashok25 [27]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

y = 2

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

To determine the equation of the line that passes through (10,2) and (-3,2), we need to determine the slope of the line. Then substitute the slope and any given point in point slope form to obtain the equation of the line.

<h3>Finding the Slope of the line:</h3>

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} = \dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

<u>Substitute the coordinates of the given points:</u>

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{2 - 2}{-3 - 10 }$

<u>Simplify the equation to determine the slope:</u>

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{0}{-3 - 10 }$

∴ 0 divided by ANY number is ALWAYS 0.

$\implies \text{Slope} =0$

<h3>Finding the equation of the line:</h3>

Point slope form formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

x₁ and y₁ are the coordinates of any given point.
m is the slope

<u>Substitute the values in the point slope form:</u>

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1} )$

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y - 2 = 0(x - 10)$

<u>Simplify the equation to determine the equation of the line:</u>

∴ Any number multiplied by 0 is 0.

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y - 2 = 0$

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y = 0 + 2$

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y = 2$

Thus, the equation of the line is y = 2.

Maru [420]

The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Car moves 16 miles to north then 30 mile to east.

It forms a right angle triangle.

The straight line distance from starting to ending point represents hypotenuse.

To find the distance between starting and ending point.

Formula

By <em>Pythagoras theorem,</em>

h² = b²+l² where h is the hypotenuse, b is base and l is the another side.

Taking, b=16 and l=30 we get,

h² = 16²+30²

or, h = $\sqrt{256+900}$

or, h = $\sqrt{1156}$ = 34

Hence,

The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.
