A student is asked to find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle. The length of one leg is 34
centimeters, and the length of the other leg is 24 centimeters. The student incorrectly says that the
length of the hypotenuse is 7.6 centimeters. Answer parts a and b.
a. Find the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

41.6 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle formula: c^2 = a^2 + b^2

                                  c is the hypotenuse side of the triangle

                                  a and b are the legs of the triangle.    

 Find the hypotenuse :   c^2 = (24)^2 + (34)^2

                                          c = square root of (  (24)^2 + (34)^2)

                                          c = square root of ( 576 + 1,156)

                                          c = 41.6173

The diameter of a basketball rim is 18 inches. A standard basketball has a circumference of 30 inches. What is the distance between the ball and the rim in a shot in which the ball goes exactly in the center of the rim? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

4.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Basketball rim:

diameter = 18 inches

r = 18/2 = 9 inches

Ball:

Circumference of ball = 30 inches

2πr = 30 inches

[tex]2*3.14*r = 30\\\\r = \frac{30}{2*3.14}\\\\r = 4.8 inches[/tex]

Distance between the ball and the rim in a shot when the ball goes exactly in the center of the rim = radius of the rim - radius of the ball

   = 9 - 4.8

   = 4.2 inches

what is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is y=2/3x+7 fully simplify your answer

Answers

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When a line is parallel to another, it means that there are never going to be any solutions(they won't ever intersect each other.) To do so, the slope of the lines have to be the same. It doesn't matter what the y-intercept is.

So the slope of the second line is going to be the same as the first line: 2/3

Answer:

2. The area of the side walk is approximately 217 m²

3. The distance away from the sprinkler the water can spread is approximately 11 feet

4. The area of the rug is 49.6

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The dimensions of the flower bed and the sidewalks are;

The diameter of the flower bed = 20 meters

The width of the circular side walk, x = 3 meters

Therefore, the diameter of the outer edge of the side walk, D, is given as follows

D = d + 2·x (The width of the side walk is applied to both side of the circular diameter)

∴ D  = 20 + 2×3 = 26

The area of the side walk = The area of the sidewalk and the side walk = The area of the flower bed

∴ The area of the side walk, A = π·D²/4 - π·d²/4

∴ A = 3.14 × 26²/4 - 3.14 × 20²/4 = 216.66

By rounding to the nearest whole number, the area of the side walk, A ≈ 217 m²

3. Given that the area formed by the circular pattern, A = 379.94 ft.², we have;

Area of a circle = π·r²

∴ Where 'r' represents how far it can spread, we have;

π·r² = 379.94

r = √(379.94 ft.²/π) ≈ 10.997211 ft.

Therefore, the distance away from the sprinkler the water can spread, r ≈ 11 feet

4. The circumference of the rug = 24.8 meters

The circumference of a circle, C = 2·π·r

Where;

r = The radius of the circle

π = 3.1

∴ For the rug of radius 'r', C = 2·π·r = 24.8

r = 24.8/(2·π) = 12.4/π = 12.4/3.1 = 4

The area = π·r²

∴ The area of the rug = 3.1 × 4² = 49.6.

Zane and his favorite geometry student, , have just set sail for a day of fun on lake Erie. A spring squall quickly forms and catches you off guard, leaving you adrift on the lake. Zane suddenly discovers he has an irrational fear of water and is reduced to hugging the mast. You hear Sherman barking from the top of a lighthouse to help guide you to shore. In order to save Zane and yourself, you must calculate how far away you are from this lighthouse. Using a range finder, you expertly measure the distance from the sailboat to the top of the lighthouse at 350 yards.

angle B is 40 degrees.

(a) Based on the above information, find the distance across the water from the sailboat to the island

where the lighthouse is standing. You can only use trigonometry to solve. You must show all work for

credit. Round your answer to the nearest whole number if needed.

(b)Calculate the height of the lighthouse. You can only use trigonometry or Pythagorean Theorem to

solve.

Answers

Water is the Adjacent of this right triangle. 350 yards is the length of the Hypotenuse. We have given angle B, 40 degrees.

_________________________________________________________

According to SOH CAH TOA, we use CAH (cosineΘ = adjacent/hypotenuse).

Θ = 40hyoptenuse = 350adjacent = x

cosine40 = x/350

[multiply both sides by 350]

350 · cosine40 = x

[put calculator in degree mode]

x ≈ 268 yards

So, the distance across the water from sailboat to the island is 268 yards.

_________________________________________________________

Let's use pythagorean theorem since we already know the adjacent and hypotenuse to find the opposite (opposite is also known as height).

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = ? (opposite or height)b = 268 (adjacent)c = 350 (hypotenuse)

a^2 + (268)^2 = (350)^2

a^2 + 71824 = 122500

a^2 = 122500 - 71824

a^2 = 50676

[square both sides]

[tex]\sqrt{a^2}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{50676}[/tex]

a = [tex]\sqrt{50676}[/tex]

a ≈ 225

So, the height, opposite, of the lighthouse is 225 yards.

find the gradient of a line that is perpendicular to 8y+4x=5​

Answers

Answer:

gradient = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope (gradient) and c the y- intercept )

Given

8y + 4x = 5 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

8y = - 4x + 5 ( divide the terms by 8 )

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] ← in slope- intercept form

with gradient = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Given a line with gradient m then the gradient of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2} }[/tex] = 2

2 is the gradient of a line that is perpendicular to 8y+4x=5​

What is slope of Line?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane

The slope of line can also be called ad gradient of a line.

The standard form of line or slope intercept form of a line is given by

y=mx+c

where m is the slope of line and c is the y intercept.

The given equation of line is  8y+4x=5​

We need to convert the equation of line to Slope intercept form

8y=5-4x

Divide both sides by 8

y=5/8-4/8x

y=-1/2x+5/8

So m is -1/2.

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if m₁m₂ =-1

if m₁=-1/2

then we need to calculate m₂

-1/2m₂=-1

m₂=2

Hence gradient of a line that is perpendicular to 8y+4x=5​ is 2.

Since both equations equal y they need to equal each other.

2x - 5 = -3x + 10

Add 3x to both sides:

5x -5 = 10

Add 5 to both sides

5x = 15

Divide both sides by 5

X = 3

Now solve for y by replacing x with 3:

Y = 2(3)-5 = 6-5 = 1

Y = -3(3)+ 10 = -9+ 10 = 1

Check: replace y with 1 and solve for x:

1 = 2x -5

Add 5 to both sides

6 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

X = 3 ( True)

Add those two angles to get the measure of angle QRS.

measure of angle QRS= 116 degrees.

Same-side interior angles are supplementary

So,

116+ angle PQR= 180

subtract both sides by 116.

PQR=64

Therefore the measure of angle PQR is 64 degrees.
