Triangle ABC:
<ABC=90°
<ACB=y

Triangle CDE:
<CDE=90°
<DCE=y

The two triangles have two congruent angles, then they are similars, and theirs sides must be proportionals:

Adjacent angle to y / Hypotenuse

Triangle CDE Triangle ABC
CD/CE = BC/AC

Replacing the values:
x/7=(20-x)/21

Solving for x. Cross multiplication:
(21)(x)=(7)(20-x)
21x=140-7x
21x+7x=140-7x+7x
28x=140
28x/28=140/28
x=5

Length of CD = x = 5

Answer: The length of CD is 5

Answer: 5

A curve in polar coordinates is given by: r=9+3cosθ. Point P is at θ=21π/18 .?

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a curve in polar coordinates is given by:

r=9+3cosθ

a) At point P, we have

$θ=\frac{21\pi}{18}$

Substitute to get

$r=9+cos \frac{21\pi}{18}\\=9.3932$

b) Cartesian coordinate is

$x= rcos \theta=3.6934\\y =r sin \tjeta =8.6365$

c) At the origin r =0

when r =0

we have

$9+3cos\theta=0\\cos\theta =-3$

Since cos cannot take values as -3 it doe snot pass through origin.

Answer:

1) 0.53

2) 0.1615

Step-by-step explanation:

1) ______ + 0.37 = 0.9

______ = 0.9 - 0.37 = 0.53

2)______ - 0.0369 = 0.1246

______ = 0.1246 + 0.0369 = 0.1615
