It is possible to find DH based on the stated theorem

<h3>Secant-secant rule:</h3>

This rule states that if two secants are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the product of the measures of one secant's external part and that entire secant is equal to the product of the measures of the other secant's external part and that entire secant.

Mathematically:

(CG+GE)CG = (CH+HD)CH

Given the following parameters

CG=4 in

CH=5 in

GE=6 in

Substitute to check if we can find DH

(4+6)*4 = (5+DH)*5

10*4 = 25 + 5DH

40 - 25 = 5DH

15 = 5DH
DH = 3in

Therefore it is possible to find DH based on the stated theorem

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

7.65 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance that diver will travel.

We have been given that a scuba diver is exploring at an elevation of -12.2 meters. As the diver rises to the surface, she plans to stop and rest briefly at a reef that has an elevation of -4.55 meters. We are asked to find the distance that diver will travel.

The initial elevation plus x will be equal to -4.55 meters. We can represent our given information in an equation as:

$-12.2+x=-4.55$

$-12.2+12.2+x=-4.55+12.2$

$x=7.65$

Therefore, the scuba diver will travel a vertical distance of 7.65 meters.

Hi, I am new to this website :) I'm currently taking an online trig class on De Moivre's theorem and I don't understand it at al

Vladimir [108]

De Moivre's theorem uses this general formula z = r(cos α + i<span> sin α) that is where we can have the form a + bi. If the given is raised to a certain number, then the r is raised to the same number while the angles are being multiplied by that number.

For 1) </span>[3cos(27))+isin(27)]^5 we first apply the concept I mentioned above where it becomes

[3^5cos(27*5))+isin(27*5)] and then after simplifying we get, [243 (cos (135) + isin (135))]

it is then further simplified to 243 (-1/ √2) + 243i (1/√2) = -243/√2 + 243/<span>√2 i
and that is the answer.

For 2) </span>[2(cos(40))+isin(40)]^6, we apply the same steps in 1)

[2^6(cos(40*6))+isin(40*6)],

[64(cos(240))+isin(240)] = 64 (-1/2) + 64i (-√3 /2)

And the answer is -32 -32 √3 i

Summary:
1) -243/√2 + 243/√2 i
2)-32 -32 √3 i
