The hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is 8 cm more than its shortest side. The third side is 1 cm shorter than the hypotenuse. Find the three sides of ths is triangle.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

hypotenuse = 13

shortest side = 5

third side = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sides a, b, and c, with c representing the hypotenuse of a right triangle, we can say that

a²+b² = c² using the Pythagorean Theorem.

We are given that the hypotenuse (c) = 8 cm more than the shortest side. Representing the shortest side as a, we can say that c= 8 + a. Then, the third side, which we can represent as b, is 1cm shorter than the hypotenuse, so c-1 = b

c= 8+a

c-1 = b

a²+b² = c²

One thing we can do is to solve for everything in terms of c and solve the third equation from there

c= 8+a

subtract 8 from both sides

c-8 = a

a²+b² = c²

(c-8)²+b² =c²

b = c-1

(c-8)² + (c-1)² = c²

expand

c²-16c + 64 + c² - 2c + 1 = c²

2c² - 18c + 65 = c²

subtract c² from both sides to make this an equation that we can more easily solve

c² - 18c + 65 = 0

To factor, we can find two numbers that add to (-18) and multiply to 65. Two numbers that work at 13 and 5, so we have

c²-13c-5c + 65 = 0

c(c-13) -5(c-13) = 0

(c-5)(c-13) = 0

Therefore, the hypotenuse, or c, is 5 or 13. Because a=c-8, if c=5, a would be negative 3. This is not possible, so c cannot be 5. Therefore, c=13, a=c-8=5, and b=c-1= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

*Any negative in either the numerator or denominator will make the entire fraction negative.

1/2  = .5

-13 1/2 = -13.5

-6/8 = -3/4

-3/4 = -0.75

-6/8 = -0.75

-13 1/2 = -13.5

Given the function f(x) = -2c+cx-x^2, and f^-1(5) = -1, find c

Answers

Answer:

[tex]c=-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

[tex]f(x) = -2c + cx - x^2[/tex]

And that:

[tex]\displaystyle f^{-1} (5) = -1[/tex]

And we want to determine the value of c.

Recall that by definition of inverse functions:

[tex]\displaystyle \text{If } f(a) = b, \text{ then } f^{-1}(b) = a[/tex]

So, since f⁻¹(5) = -1, then f(-1) = 5.

Substitute:

[tex]f(-1) = 5 = -2c + c(-1) - (-1)^2[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]5 = -2c - c - (1)[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]6 = -3c[/tex]

And divide. Hence:

[tex]c = -2[/tex]

In conclusion, the value of c is -2.

the perimeter is 500, there are 5 sides. so on average a side will be 100.

that's already the important key idea.

it's indeed 100 for the third side, the second will be 10 less, the fourth 10 more (making the 2and and the 4th side 200 in sum, and therefore still 100 on average).

Use the concept of a period of function defined as:

One full wave is set up in a medium for the length of time it takes a particle of that medium to complete one vibration or one wave period.

In the given wave,

X-axis represents time

The Y- axis represents the amplitude of the curve

As we can see,

The first peak of this graph is located at x = 1 and the second peak is at,

x = 13

Since the period is the time interval between two consecutive peaks in a graph.

In this case, the time interval is 10.

Answer:

B. 7y - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

10y + -3(y + 5) = 0

Reorder the terms:

10y + -3(5 + y) = 0

10y + (5 * -3 + y * -3) = 0

10y + (-15 + -3y) = 0

Reorder the terms:

-15 + 10y + -3y = 0

Combine like terms: 10y + -3y = 7y

-15 + 7y = 0

Solving

-15 + 7y = 0

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '15' to each side of the equation.

-15 + 15 + 7y = 0 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0

0 + 7y = 0 + 15

7y = 0 + 15

Combine like terms: 0 + 15 = 15

7y = 15

Divide each side by '7'.

What percentage is 150 grams of 400 grams?

37.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

150/450 = .375 = 37.5%

The percentage is 150 grams out of 400 grams will be 37.5%.

What is the percentage?

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A quarter of 100 can be used to express the ratio. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The symbol '%' is used to symbolize it.

The percentage is given as,

Percentage (P) = [Initial value - Final value] / Initial value x 100

It is given that the difference between the initial and final value is 15 grams and the initial value is 400 grams.

Then the percentage is 150 grams out of 400 grams will be

P = (150 / 400) x 100

P = 0.375 x 100

P = 37.5%

Thus, the percentage is 150 grams out of 400 grams will be 37.5%.

The cross-section of a searchlight mirror is shaped like a parabola. The light bulb is located 3 centimeters from the base along the axis of symmetry. If the mirror is 20 centimeters across at the opening, find its depth in centimeters. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.)

Answers

The depth of the mirror of the cross-section of a searchlight would be 8.33 cm if the light bub has a vertex at 3 cm and the mirror is 20 centimeters across at the origin.

A cross-section is perpendicular to the axis of the symmetry goes through the vertex of the parabola. The cross-sectional shape of the mirrored section of most searchlights or spotlights is parabolic.

It helps in maximizing the output of light in one direction.The equation of the cross-section of the parabola is - [tex]y^{2} = 4ax[/tex], where a is the focus and x is the depth of the mirror from its origin.

Given:

a = 3

y = [tex]\frac{20}{2}[/tex] cm = 10 cm

Solution:

from the equation [tex]y^{2} = 4ax[/tex]

[tex]y^{2} = 4*3*x\\ y^{2} = 12x[/tex]

putting x, 10 cm in the equation

[tex]x=\frac{10^{2} }{12} \\\\x= \frac{100}{12} \\\\x= 8.33 cm[/tex]
