Find the length of the radius of the circle, which is inscribed into a right trapezoid with lengths of bases a and b.
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

  r = (ab)/(a+b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the attached sketch. The diagram shows base b at the bottom and base a at the top. The height of the trapezoid must be twice the radius. The point where the slant side of the trapezoid is tangent to the inscribed circle divides that slant side into two parts: lengths (a-r) and (b-r). The sum of these lengths is the length of the slant side, which is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with one leg equal to 2r and the other leg equal to (b-a).

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can write the relation ...

  ((a-r) +(b-r))^2 = (2r)^2 +(b -a)^2

  a^2 +2ab +b^2 -4r(a+b) +4r^2 = 4r^2 +b^2 -2ab +a^2

  -4r(a+b) = -4ab . . . . . . . . subtract common terms from both sides, also -2ab

  r = ab/(a+b) . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of r

The radius of the inscribed circle in a right trapezoid is r = ab/(a+b).

_____

The graph in the second attachment shows a trapezoid with the radius calculated as above.

Divide using synthetic division. ( x^4-12x^2-9)/(x+3)
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

x^3 - 3x^2 - 3x + 9 + (-36/(x+3))

OR

x^3 - 3x^2 - 3x + 9 - (36/(x+3))

Step-by-step explanation:

First set the divisor equal to 0:

x + 3 = 0

Subtract 3 from both sides

x = -3

This is what you'll divide the dividend by in synthetic division.

Take the coefficents of each term in the dividend. Do not forget the 0 placeholders:

x^4 + 0x^3 - 12x^2 + 0x -9

Coefficents: 1. 0.  -12. 0 -9.

Please see the image for the next steps.

The remainder is -36. Put the remainder over the divisor and add it to the polynomial (shown in image)

-36/(x+3)
