A line segment (DE) joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is
parallel
to the third sid

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This is  called a mid segment theorem in which the al ine segment (DE) joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have a triangle ABC. Then the midpoints can be located as D, E and F. If we join D , E and F another triangle is formed.

From the figure we can see that

AE≅ CE

AD≅DB

BF≅CF  

BECAUSE  all the given points are the midpoints which divide the lines into two equal halves.

If we increase the line DE to a point L we find out that DL is parallel to BC i.e. it does not meet at any point with BC. ( the two lines do not meet)

(1)

If we join C with L we find out that the the line DE is half in length to the line BC.

AS

AE= CE  (midpoints dividing into equal line segements.)

LE= DE

Triangle CEL= Triangle DEF

so

DL= BC

But DE = 1/2 DL

therefore

DE= 1/2 BC (2)

Therefore from 1 and 2 we find that a line segment (DE) joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side

Johanna rode her bike 7 miles to a lake . She rode 3/4 of distance to the lake before lunch. How many miles did johanna ride before lunch?

Answers

She rode 5.25 miles before lunch.

Answer:

5.25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 7 miles

Distance she rode before lunch = 3/4 of the total distance

=> 3/4 of 7

=> 21/4

=> 5.25 miles

So, she drove 5.25 miles before lunch.

If a=8 and b=5 and x=4 and y=6m -2 what is the value of m ?

Answer:

m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x = 4

y = 6m - 2

a = 8

b = 5

Required:

Value of m

SOLUTION:

x and y are segments of a chord divided when it intersects another chord that also has segments a and b.

According to the Intersecting chords theorem, [tex] a*b = x*y [/tex]

Thus:

[tex] 8*5 = 4*(6m - 2) [/tex]

Solve for m

[tex] 40 = 24m - 8 [/tex]

[tex] 40 + 8 = 24m - 8 + 8 [/tex]

[tex] 48 = 24m [/tex]

[tex] \frac{48}{24} = \frac{24m}{24} [/tex]

a.) (a+b)^2=c^2
b.) a^2+b^2=c^2
c.) a^2-b^2=c^2
d.) (a-b)^2=c^2

3.) Find the distance between the points (9, −7) and (5, −4).(1 point)

4.) To find the distance between (17, 3) and (17, −5), Marcia used the following equation. Is Marcia correct? Explain.

D = | 3 − (−5) | = 8

a.) Marcia is not correct. Since the points are in two-dimensions, the distance formula must be used to find the distance.

b.)Marcia is correct. For any pair of points, the distance between the points can be treated as if they are in one-dimension.

c.)Marcia is correct. Since the x-coordinates are the same, the distance between the points can be treated as if they are in one-dimension.

d.)Marcia is not correct. According to the distance formula, the distance should be D=√(17-17)^2+(3-(-5))^2=√8

Option d for question 4 should be:

d.)Marcia is not correct. According to the distance formula, the distance should be D=√(17-17)^2+(3-(-5))^2=8

Answer:

1. (b)  a^2+b^2=c^2

3. (a) 5

4. (d) Marcia is not correct. According to the distance formula, the distance should be D=√(17-17)^2+(3-(-5))^2=8

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) From Pythagoras' theorem, the square of the hypotenuse side of a given right-angled triangle, is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Now, if the other two sides are a and b, and the hypotenuse is c, then using this theorem, the following holds:

c² = a² + b²

(2) The distance D, between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by;

D = √(a-c)² + (b-d)²        ----------------(i)

From the question, the points given are (9, -7) and (5, -4):

This means that;

a = 9

b = -7

c = 5

d = -4

Substitute these values into equation (i) and get;

D = √(9-5)² + (-7- (-4))²

D = √(4)² + (-3)²

D = √16 + 9

D = √25

D = 5

Therefore, the distance between these points is 5 units

(4) As explained in question 3 above, Maria is not correct. To find the distance between two points, we use the relation shown in the answer to question 3 above. i.e

D = √(a-c)² + (b-d)²

Since the given points are (17, 3) and (17, -5), it implies that;

a = 17

b = 3

c = 17

d = -5

D = √(17-17)² + (3-(-5))²

D = √(0)² + (8)²

D = √8²

D = 8

It is known that the birth weights of full-term newborn infants in the U.S. have an approximately normal distribution with a mean weight of 6.8 lbs and a standard deviation of 1.7. Approximately what proportion of newborn babies will have a birth weight between 6 lbs and 8 lbs? Provide all four decimal places in your answer.

Answers

Answer: 0.4419

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The birth weights of full-term newborn infants in the U.S. have an approximately normal distribution with a mean weight of 6.8 lbs and a standard deviation of 1.7.

i.e. [tex]\mu=6.8\ \ \ \text{ and }\sigma= 1.7[/tex]

Let X denotes the birth weight.

Then, the proportion of newborn babies will have a birth weight between 6 lbs and 8 lbs is given by :-

[tex]P(6<X<8)=P(\dfrac{6-6.8}{1.7}<\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\dfrac{8-6.8}{1.7})\\\\=P(-0.47<Z<0.71)\ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}] \\\\=P(Z<0.71)-(1-P(Z-0.47))\\\\=0.7611-(1-0.6808)\ \ \ [\text{By z-table}]\\\\= 0.4419[/tex]

Hence, the proportion of newborn babies will have a birth weight between 6 lbs and 8 lbs is 0.4419 .

a ladder 10 m long,leans against a vertical wall at an angle of 70° to the ground.if the ladder slips down the wall 4m,find,correct to 2 significant figure
(a) the new angle which the ladder makes with the ground

(b) the distance the ladder slipped back on the ground from it's original position

Answers

Answer:

(a) The new angle the ladder makes with the ground = 32.66°

(b) The distance the ladder slipped back on the ground from it's original position = 5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The length of the ladder = 10 m

Angle of inclination of the ladder = 70°

Length to which the ladder slips down the wall = 4 m

(a) The height of the wall adjacent to the ladder = 10×sin(70°) ≈ 9.4 m

The new height of the wall adjacent to the ladder after the ladder slips down 4 m = 9.4 - 4 = 5.4 m

Therefore, the new angle of inclination of the ladder = sin⁻¹(5.4/10) = 32.66°

The new angle the ladder makes with the ground = 32.66°

(b) The distance the ladder slipped back on the ground from its original position is found as follows

The initial distance of the base of the ladder from the wall  = 10 × cos(70°) = 3.42 m

The distance of the base of the ladder from the wall after slipping 4 m down the wall = 10 × cos(32.66°)  ≈ 8.42 m.

Therefore, the amount by which the ladder slip back on the ground from its original position = 8.42 - 3.42 = 5 m.

The distance the ladder slipped back on the ground from it's original position = 5 m.

1/x - 1/y = 1/4
1/x^2 - 1/y^2 = 3/16

x + y = ...

Answers

GIVEN:

1/x - 1/y = ¼.1/x² - 1/y² = 3/16.

TO FIND:

The value of x + y.

ANSWER:

Firstly let us assume ,

p = 1/x .q = 1/y .

Now the equⁿ s becomes ,

=> p - q = 4 . ........(1)

Also , given that:

=> 1/x² - 1/y² = 3/16.

=> p² - q² = 3/16.

=> (p+q)(p-q) = 3/16.

From (1),

=> 4 (p+q) = 13/16.

=> (p+q) = 13/16 × 1/4.

=> p+ q = 13/64.

On adding (1) and (2) ,

=> 2p = 4 + 13/64.

=> 2p = 256+13/64.

=> p = 269/64 × 1/2.

=> p = 269/128.

Now lets find q ,

=> q = 13/64 - 269/128.

=> q = 26-269/128.

=> q = -243/128.

Hence

p = 269/128.q = -243/128.

.°. x = 128/269 , y = -128/243
