1. What is the difference between the altitude rule and the leg rule?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle forms two triangles that are similar to each other and to the original triangle

The Leg Rule (or Leg geometric mean theorem) relates the length of each leg of a right triangle with the segments projected by them on the hypotenuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the segments into which it divides the hypotenuse. Notice the triangle used with this rule. The leg of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the hypotenuse and the projection of the leg on the hypotenuse.

Division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations. The number of pints of water Scott drank yesterday is 4.2 pints.

What is Division?

Division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations, which tells us how the numbers are combined to form a new one.

A rope was 14.35 inches long. Megean cut the rope into 7 pieces of equal length. Therefore, the length of each piece of rope in inches will be,

Length of piece = 14.35 inches/7 = 2.05 inches

Scott drank 3.5 bottles of water yesterday . Each bottle contained 1.2 pints of water. Therefore, the number of pints of water Scott drank yesterday is,

Number of pints = 3.5 bottles × 1.2 pints = 4.2 pints

Hence, The number of pints of water Scott drank yesterday is 4.2 pints.

how can i find area of abd triangle. .............​

Answers

Answer:

  6 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The attachment shows the figure redrawn to scale, along with helpful semicircle O with diameter EB. Trig relations can be used to find the area of triangle ADB. The relation between an inscribed angle and its corresponding central angle is also helpful.

__

angles

Any right triangle can be inscribed in a semicircle whose diameter is the hypotenuse. Accordingly, we have constructed semicircle O whose center is the midpoint of EB. Hence its radius is EB/2 = 4/2 = 2.

Then angle EBD is an inscribed angle, hence half the measure of central angle EOD. Since ∠EOD is double the measure of ∠EBD, it is congruent to ∠EBC, which is also double the measure of ∠EBD. We have called the measure of this double angle θ. Its complement is the angle marked β.

segments

The fact that angles EOD and EBC are congruent means that segments OD and BC are parallel. Segment BC is the altitude of ΔADB with respect to base AD.

The tangent ratio is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

Applying that to angle β, we have

  tan(β) = OD/AD   [eqn 1]

  tan(β) = BC/AC   [eqn 2]

These two relations can be solved for the measures of AD and BC, which we need in order to find the area of ΔADB.

area

Equation [eqn 1] tells us ...

  AD = OD/tan(β)

Equation [eqn 2] tells us ...

  BC = AC·tan(β)

The area of ΔADB is ...

  Area = 1/2bh

  Area = 1/2(AD)(BC) = 1/2(OD/tan(β))·(AC·tan(β))

  Area = 1/2(OD)(AC) . . . . . . factors tan(β) cancel

The length of AC is given as 6, and we know OD = 2, so the area is ...

  Area = 1/2(2)(6) = 6

The area of triangle ADB is 6 square units.

Quadrilateral ABCD has the following coordinates: A(-6,3) B(-4,5) C(-1,6) and D(-3,2) and
maps onto A"B"C"D". It will undergo transformations that will consist of a reflection over
the y-axis followed by a translation. Point D" is shown plotted in the plane after the
transformation.

A) Write the translation rule that maps point D' to point D".

B) Write the coordinates of point A"

Answers

The translation rule that maps point D' to D" is (x + 3, y) and  the coordinate of point A" is (9,3)

How to determine the translation rule?

The coordinates are given as:

A(-6,3) B(-4,5) C(-1,6) and D(-3,2)

When reflected across the y-axis, the transformation rule is:

(x,y) -> (-x,y)

So, we have:

A' = (6,3)

D' = (3,2)

Point D" on the grid is (6,2).

This means that the translation rule that maps both point is (x + 3, y)

The coordinates of point A

In (a), we have:

A' = (6,3)

Using the translation rule (x + 3, y), we have:

A" = (6 + 3,3)

A" = (9,3)

Hence, the coordinate of point A" is (9,3)

The area of sector AOB  whose radius OA 5 units is 19.6 sq. units.

What is the Sector?

A sector is a portion of a circle which is enclosed between its two radii and the arc adjoining them. The most common sector of a circle is a semi-circle which represents half of a circle.

Here, Radius of Circle = 5 units

         length of arc AB / circumference = 1/4

        So, Area of Sector AOB = one fourth of area of circle

                                                  = 1/4 X π X r²

                                                 = 0.25 X 3.14 X 5²

                                                 = 0.25 X 3.14 X 25

                                                 = 19.625 sq. units

The recommended bottom time is 24 minutes which means that staying there for 25 minutes will have exceeded this recommendation.

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Given the volume of the prism, the box is 96 units³ and the diameter of the cylindrical container is 4 units(Radius=2 units), while the height of the cylinder is 6 units. Therefore, The volume of the empty space is,

The volume of the empty space

= Volume of prism - Volume of the cylindrical container

= 96 units³ - (π×2²×6) units³

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

by counting units from M to J you have a length of 3 for the "a" value

by counting units from M to L you have a length of 6 for the "b" value

3^2 + 6^2 = c^2

9 + 36 = c^2

45 = c^2

take square root of both sides
