Similarity and altitudes in right triangles

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleks04 [339]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: First I suggest that you write out the all the proportions which govern the 3 right triangles involved.

Once you do that you will find this one:

PQ/PS =PR/PQ

PR=PS+SR

Substitution will give you this quadratic:PQ2=PS2+PS*SR

144=PS2+7PS which has only one solution which make sense, namely 9

Then QS=sqrt(144-81)

Step-by-step explanation:

The manager went over the sales of mobile phones at the store and found that the mean sale was 45, with a standard deviation of
d1i1m1o1n [39]

The z-score of the sale of mobile phones on that day is 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of z-score is z = (x - μ)/σ, where:

  • x is the score
  • μ is the mean
  • σ is the standard deviation

∵ The mean sale was 45

∴ μ = 45

∵ The standard deviation was 4

∴ σ = 4

∵ 52 mobile phones were sold on a particular day

∴ x = 52

To find z-score of the sale of mobile phones on that day substitute the values of x, μ, and σ in the formula of z-score

∵ z=\frac{52-45}{4}

∴ z=\frac{7}{4}

∴ z = 1.75

The z-score of the sale of mobile phones on that day is 1.75

Solve ry + s = tx - m for y. Explain each step in your solution.
sergeinik [125]

y = (t x - m -s)/r

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given,

r y + s = t x - m

=> r y = t x - m -s

=>  y = (t x - m -s)/r

Step 2 :

A) r can take any values except 0.

This is because when r = 0, the denominator becomes 0 and division by 0 is undefined

The limitation for r is r should not be equal to 0

The other variables can take any value. Hence the other variables do not have any limitation

Answer:

d =13 cm

r = 6.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter is the distance across the circle, going through the center

d = 13 cm

The radius is 1/2 of the diameter

r = d/2 = 13/2 = 6.5 cm
