Find the measures of the interior angles that maximize the area of an isosceles trapezoid
where the length of the non-parallel sides are each 4 inches and the length the shorter of
the two bases is 6 inches.

Answers

Answer 1

The measure of the angle that would maximize the area of this isosceles trapezoid is equal to 0.4395 rad.

Given the following data:

Base length = 6 inches.Sides length = 4 inches.

How to calculate the area of a trapezium.

Mathematically, the area of a trapezium is given by this formula:

A = ½ × (a + b) × h

A = ½ × (12 + 2l) × h

A = h(6 + l)

Next, we would derive a mathematical expression for A in terms of h as follows;

Let l = 4sinθ Let h = 4cosθ

A = (6 + 4sin(θ)) × 4cosθ

In order to determine the value of θ for which the area of this isosceles trapezoid is maximized, we would differentiate the area (A) with respect to angle (θ):

Note: sin²θ + cos²θ = 1   ⇒ cos²θ = 1 - sin²θ.

[tex]\frac{dA}{d\theta} =16 cos^{2} \theta - 4sin \theta(6+4sin \theta)\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} = 16 cos^{2} \theta - 16 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} =16(1-sin^{2} \theta)- 16 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} = - 32 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta+16\\\\32 sin^{2} \theta + 24sin\theta-16=0[/tex]

Next, we would use the quadratic formula to solve for the value of sinθ.

Mathematically, the quadratic formula is given by this equation:

[tex]sin\theta = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where:

a = 32.b = 24.c = -16.

Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; \sqrt{24^2 - 4(32)(-16)}}{2(32)}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; \sqrt{2624}}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; 51.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\;+\; 51.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{27.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = 0.4255\\\\\theta = sin^{-1}(0.4255)[/tex]

θ = 0.4395 rad.

Note: We would only consider the positive value of the quadratic root.

For the obtuse interior angles of the trapezoid, we have [tex](\frac{\pi}{2} +0.4395)[/tex]

Similarly, the measure of the acute interior angles of the trapezoid is [tex](\frac{\pi}{2} -0.4395)[/tex]

Colin gets pic 'n mix when at the cinema and makes his bag up with 3 types of sweet. He picks 3 times as many cola bottles as smarties. He also picks twice as many smarties as marshmallows. What proportion of the bag of sweets are cola bottles?
Give your answer in its simplest form

Answers

(1)

If there are three times as many males as females, the ratio of males to females would be 3:1.

To make this more clearer. Suppose you have 100 students. for each 4 students, 3 of them are male and 1 is a female.

We can then say there are 75 males and 25 females.

Expressing this as a ratio(fraction) is easy 3 out of 4 are males and 1 out of 4 are females. So the ratio of males would be;

[tex]r(m) = \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

(2)

Let x be the number of cola bottles

Let y be the number of smarties

Let z be the number of marshmallows

x=3y (since there are 3 times more x than y)

y=2z (since there are 2 times more y than z)

we know that marshmallows are twice as less as smarties. so for 1 marshmallow you'd have 2 smarties. But we also know that cola bottles should be 2×3=6 since we have 3 times more cola bottles than smarties.

Adding up our total sweets we get;

1+2+6=9

But how many of those are cola bottles? 6!

So the ratio of cola bottles can be expressed as,

[tex]r(c) = \frac{6}{9} = \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

You can simplify the numerator and denominator by 3 to get 2 over 3.

Two students determined the value of this expression.

Step 3: -(3.5 - 7.75 - 29.67)
Step 4: -(-33.92)
Step 5: 33.92

Answer:

Given expression:

-2.5(1.4+3.1) + 6.9(-4.3)

Student P

Step 1:  -3.5 + 7.75 + 6.9(-4.3)

Step 2: -3.5 + 7.75 - 29.67

Step 3: 7.75 - 3.5 - 29.67

Step 4: -25.42

Student P made an error in step 1.  When expanding the first part of the expression, they forgot the negative sign when multiplying -2.5 by 3.1.  

So Step 1 should be:  -3.5 - 7.75 + 6.9(-4.3).  

This error then impacted all following steps and gave an incorrect final solution.

Student Q

Step 1: -3.5 - 7.75 + 6.9(-4.3)

Step 2: -3.5 - 7.75 - 29.67

Step 3: -(3.5 - 7.75 - 29.67)

Step 4: -(-33.92)

Step 5: 33.92

Student Q made an error in step 3.  When placing the numbers in parentheses and placing a negative sign outside the parentheses, they should have changed the two negative signs inside the parentheses to positives.

So Step 3 should be: -(3.5 + 7.75 + 29.67).  

This error then impacted all following steps and gave an incorrect final solution.

Correct steps and solution

Step 1:  -3.5 - 7.75 + 6.9(-4.3)

Step 2: -3.5 - 7.75 - 29.67

Apply exponent rule [tex]\dfrac{a^b}{a^c}=a^{b-c}[/tex]

[tex]\sf \dfrac{1.16}{3.07} \times \dfrac{10^{13}}{10^{8}}=0.3778501629... \times 10^{13-8}[/tex]

                   [tex]\sf =0.378\times 10^{5}[/tex]

                   [tex]\sf =3.78\times 10^{4}[/tex]

how does the distributive property work

Answers

Explanation:

The distributive property tells you that multiplication distributes over addition. In equation form, it looks like ...

  a(b +c) = ab +ac

__

Groups and Multiples of Groups

The parentheses are a grouping symbol. In the above equation, they indicate that the sum (b+c) is to be treated as a group. When it is multiplied by 'a', everything in the group is multiplied by 'a'.

In the real world, there are many ways things are grouped. Baseball cards are packaged together with bubble gum; Cracker Jacks® are packaged together with a prize; left gloves are packaged together with right gloves; a bicycle is a package that has a frame, 2 wheels, a seat, handlebars. If you purchase a number of any of these packages, each of the items in the package is part of your purchase that number of times.

For example, 3 bicycles will have 3 frames, 3×2 = 6 wheels, 3 seats, 3 sets of handlebars. In algebraic form, this might look like ...

  3(f +2w + s + h) = 3f +6w +3s +3h

__

Eliminating Parentheses

Using the distributive property to eliminate parentheses is like regrouping the contents of the packages so like items are grouped together. In our above example, the 3 frames were grouped together when we considered that part of the group of 3 bicycles. The multiplier multiplies every member of the group.

__

Adding Parentheses

The reverse of the distributive property tells us we can regroup items into sets. It tells us we can take 3 frames, 6 wheels, 3 seats, and 3 handlebars and group them together in a way that makes 3 bicycles, each having a frame, 2 wheels, a seat, and handlebars.

  3f +6w +3s +3h = 3(f +2w + s + h)

Often, we're asked to choose the multiplier to be the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numbers of things in the group. That makes each group as small as possible. The multiplier only needs to be a common factor, not necessarily the greatest common factor.

Find the value of x x, y y, and z z in the parallelogram below.

Answers

In a parallelogram, angles that are opposite each other (as in, in opposite corners) are congruent. Angles that are next to each other (as in, on the same side) are supplementary.

It is very easy to solve for the value of y first because the expression is across from a known angle. Because these angles are opposite each other, they are congruent.

83 = 5y - 7

90 = 5y

y = 18

We can also use the same 83 degree angle to solve for the other two variables. 83 is on the same side as both of the remaining expressions, separately. As such 83 and another angle on the same side will add up to 180.

83 + -5x - 3 = 180

80 - 5x = 180

-5x = 100

x = -20

83 + z - 7 = 180

90 + z = 180

z = 90
