prove that if all the altitude lengths are different in a triangle, then the triangle is scalene. (use indirect proof or contrapositive)

Answers

Answer 1

The term "altitude" is the same as "height of a triangle". It is perpendicular to the base. Since we can rotate the triangle to have any side be horizontal, there are effectively 3 possible bases. Hence, there are 3 heights. It all depends how you look at it.

Let h1, h2, and h3 be the three altitudes or heights.

Without loss of generality, we'll focus on the first two heights h1 and h2. Their respective bases are b1 and b2.

If we use b1 as the base, then the area is...

area = 0.5*base*height = 0.5*b1*h1

Similarly, the other base gives the area of:

area = 0.5*b2*h2

------------------------

Since both formulas refer to the same area (because we're working with the same triangle), we can set the expressions equal to one another

0.5*b1*h1 = 0.5*b2*h2

b1*h1 = b2*h2

Let's see what happens when b1 = b2, so,

b1*h1 = b2*h2

b1*h1 = b1*h2

b1h1 - b1h2 = 0

b1(h1 - h2) = 0

b1 = 0 or h1 - h2 = 0

b1 = 0 or h1 = h2

If the bases b1 and b2 were equal, then either those bases must be 0 which isn't possible, or the altitudes must be equal. However, the initial premise is that the heights must be different from one another.

Therefore, the bases b1 and b2 can't be the same length.

We could follow the same steps and logic to conclude that if the altitudes h1 and h3 were different, then the bases b1 and b3 can't be the same. Similarly, we would conclude that b2 and b3 can't be the same. This is where the "without loss of generality" kicks in.

In other words, we only need to focus on one subcase to extend the logic to the other cases, without having to actually do every single step. That would be a bit tedious busywork.

In conclusion, we've shown that if the heights are different, then their respective bases must be different. This leads to wrapping up the proof that we have a scalene triangle.

Side note: I used an indirect proof or proof by contradiction. I assumed that a non-scalene triangle was possible and it led to a contradiction of h1 = h2.

how many days will he cut the last section?

Answers

Solving a linear equation, we will see that after 9 days he cuts the last section.

how many days will he cut the last section?

We know that the initial length of the piece of cloth is 20m, and the taylor each day cuts a piece of 2 meters of it.

So, the length as a function on the number of days, is:

L(x) = 20m - 2m*x

Here we just need to solve:

L(x) = 2m

Because the last cut is when the long piece measures 4 meters (in that case he does one cut and has the two final pieces of 2 meters).

Solving that, we get:

20m - 2m*x = 2m

20m - 2m = 2m*x

18m/2m = x = 9

After 9 days he cuts the last section.

how do i find x? pls tell me with working

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle QRS is an inscribed angle, so measure of angle QRS is half the measure of the intercepted arc, arc SPQ. Therefore arc SPQ is 125*2 = 250 degrees, and arc QRS is 360 - 250 = 110 degrees.

Angle QPS is an inscribed angle, and arc QRS is its intercepted arc. Therefore angle QPS is 110/2 = 55 degrees. Since PS is the radius of the circle, angle PQS, the angle inscribed in the semicircle, is 90 degrees. Since interior angles of the triangle QPS add up to 180 degrees, angle QSP is 180 - 90 - 55 = 35 degrees.

Angles QSP and UST are vertical angles, and by the vertical angles theorem, they are congruent. Therefore x = 35.

Find all solutions of the given equation. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. Let k be any integer. Round terms to two decimal places where appropriate.A) 3 sec2(θ) − 4 = 0B) cot(θ) + 1 = 0

Answers

The solution of the assumed equation is

θ = 135 + 360k

and

θ = -45 + 360k (or 315 + 360k)

Assuming the equation is

csc^2(θ) = 2cot(θ) + 4

and not

Assuming the equation to be:

csc^2(θ) = cot^2(θ) + 1

Solving these equations usually begins with algebra and/or trigonometry. ID for transforming equations to have one or more equations of the form:

trigfunction(expression) = number

It is not always easy to understand how to perform the desired transformation. If it's not obvious, first use the trigonometric identity to reduce the number of different arguments or functions in the equation. In this expression, all arguments are θ. Therefore, there is no need to reduce the number of arguments. But he has two different functions, csc and cot.

csc^2(θ) = cot^2(θ) + 1

Substituting the right side of this equation into the left side of the equation, we get: :

cot^2 (θ) + 1 = 2 cot(θ) + 4

Now that we have only one function cot and one argument θ, we are ready to find the form we need. Subtracting the entire right-hand side from both sides gives:

cot^2(θ) - 2cot(θ) - 3 = 0

The left-hand side factorizes:

(cot(θ)-3)(cot (θ) ) + 1 ) = 0

Using the properties of the zero product,

cot(θ) = 3 or cot(θ) = -1

These two equations are now in the desired form.

The next step is to write the general solution for each equation. The general solution represents all solutions of the equation.

cot(θ) = 3

Note that 3 is not a specific angle value for cot. That's why you need a calculator. Your computer probably doesn't have the crib button, so you'll need to switch it to tan

Since tan is the reciprocal of cot, if cot = 3...

tan(θ) = 1/3

Inverse tan tan^-1(1/3) can be used to find the reference angle. You should get a reference angle of 18.43494882 degrees. Using this reference angle and cot (and tan) being positive in the 1st and 3rd quadrants, we get the general solutions

θ = 18.43494882 + 360k

and

θ = 180 + 18.43494882 + 360k

.

θ = 198.43494882 + 360k

where

cot(θ) = -1

-1 should be recognized as a special angle value for cot. So you don't need a calculator. This reference angle is 45 degrees. Using this reference angle, cot is negative in the 2nd and 4th quadrants, so

θ = 180 - 45 + 360k

and

θ = -45 + 360k (or 360 - 45 + 360k) the general solution for

The altitude of the trapezoid, based on the given parameters is 5 units

How to determine the height of the trapezoid?

From the question, we have the following parameters about the trapezoid

Base length 1 of the trapezoid = 6

Base length 2 of the trapezoid = 10

Area of the trapezoid = 40

Altitude of the trapezoid = h

The area of the trapezoid is calculated using

Area = 0.5 * (Sum of the two base lengths) * Altitude of the trapezoid

Substitute the given parameters in the above formula

40 = 0.5 * (6 + 10) * h

Evaluate the sum of 6 ad 10 (do not approximate)

40 = 0.5 * (16) * h

Evaluate the product of 0.5 and 16 (do not approximate)

40 = 8 * h

This gives

New Area = 4 * 6 * √2 * √2

Rewrite the above equation as:

New Area = 4√2 * 6√2

To find  what is the break-even point for this bookstore:

Given:

The cost required per day to keep the store open = $105Amount spent on each book = $12

Let, n be the number of books.

Total costs = 12n + 105

The selling price of each book = $15

Total revenue = 15n

For breaking even, costs = revenue.

12n + 105 = 15n105 = 15n - 12n105 = 3n3n = 105Dividing both sides by 3:3n/3 = 105/3n = 35

Therefore, the store will break even after selling 35 books.

What are the x-intercept and vertex of this quadratic function? Write each feature as an ordered pair: (a,b). The x-intercept of function g is The vertex of function g is

Answers

The x-intercept of the function g(x) = -5(x - 3)^2 is (3, 0) and the vertex of the function g(x) = -5(x - 3)^2 is (3, 0)

How to determine the x-intercept?

The function is given as:

g(x) = -5(x - 3)^2

Set g(x) to 0, to determine the x-intercept.

-5(x - 3)^2 = 0

Divide through by -5

(x - 3)^2 = 0

Take the square root of both sides

x - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides

x = 3

Hence, the x-intercept of the function g(x) = -5(x - 3)^2 is (3, 0)

How to determine the vertex?

The function is given as:

g(x) = -5(x - 3)^2

A quadratic function is represented as:

g(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k

Where, the vertex is

Vertex = (h, k)

By comparing g(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k and g(x) = -5(x - 3)^2, we have

(h, k) = (3, 0)

Hence, the vertex of the function g(x) = -5(x - 3)^2 is (3, 0)

Me and mrs corrino can complete a job in 5 hours if mr corrino works twice as long as mrs corrino if each foes the job alone how long does it take mrs corrubi to complete the job alone

Answers

Mrs. Corrubi takes 7.5 hours to complete the job alone.

Directly proportional: as one amount increases, another amount increases at the same rate. Direct variation means when one quantity changes, the other quantity also changes in direct proportion

Inversely Proportional: when one value decreases at the same rate that the other increases. An increase in the quantity A leads to a decrease in quantity B and vice versa.

Let the number of hours taken by Mrs Corrubi to do a particular work be x.

∴ The number of hours taken by Mr Corrubi to do a particular work will be 2x.

So according to the condition,

1/x + 1/2x = 1/5

(2+1)/2x = 1/5

3/2x = 1/5

2x = 15

x = 7.5 hours.

Thus Mrs. Corrubi takes 7.5 hours to complete the job alone.

Write an algebraic expression to match the graph

please help!

Answers

the graphed equation is:

y = -|x| + 1

How to find the algebraic expression that matches the graph?

On the graph, we can see an absolute value equation, which opens downwards, and passes through the points (1, 0) and (0,1).

The general absolute value equation is:

y = a*|x - b| + c

Because the vertex is at the point (0, 1), we know that:

b = 0, c = 1

Replacing that we get:

y = a*|x| + 1

Now, this must be zero when we evaluate in x = 1, then:

0 = a*|1| + 1

a = -1

Then the graphed equation is:

y = -|x| + 1

Drag each length to the correct location on the triangle. each length can be used more than once, but not all lengths will be used. what are the missing side lengths for the triangle? 10 5

Answers

Applying the trigonometry ratios, the missing lengths for right triangle ABC are: 12 and 8√3.

What is Trigonometry Ratios?

Trigonometric ratios are defined as the values of all trigonometric functions based on the right-angled triangle's side ratio. The trigonometric ratios of any acute angle in a right-angled triangle are the ratios of its sides to that angle.

According to the given information:

Reference angle (∅) = 60

Adjacent = 4√3

Opposite = ?

Apply TOA:

tan 60 = opp/adj

tan 60 = Opp/4√3

√3 = opp/4√3

Opposite = √3 × 4√3

Opposite = 12

Find the other missing side:

Reference angle (∅) = 60

Adjacent = 4√3

Hypotenuse = ?

Apply CAH:

cos 60 = adj/hyp

cos 60 = 4√3/hyp

hyp = 4√3/cos 60

hyp = 4√3/1/2

hyp = 4√3 × 2

hyp = 8√3

Therefore, applying the trigonometry ratios, the missing lengths for right triangle ABC are: 12 and 8√3.

If a diameter intersects a chord of a circle at a perpendicular, what conclusion can be made?

Answers

If a diameter intersects a chord of a circle at a perpendicular then the chord is bisected.

What is the relation between the chord and diameter of a circle?The segments of a circle whose endpoints are on its perimeter are called chords.A circle's diameter is the chord that passes across its center.The circle's longest chord equals its diameter.Any line that is perpendicular to a chord on the circle cuts it in half and goes through the center.

The solution to the problem:

A circle's chord is intersected perpendicularly by its diameter, which also passes through the center of the circle. The chord and diameter are perpendicular. Any line that is perpendicular to a chord on the circle and passes through its center divides it. The chord is divided equally by the diameter.

Therefore, the chord is bisected.

Answer:

A = x(x − 4) − 0.5(8)(x − 4) − 3(7)

Work:

x = length, making the width (x-4)

The stage closet will be (x-4)(8)(1/2)

The rectangle is 7(3)

which makes the painted area x(x-4) - 4(x-4)

thus giving us

x(x − 4) − 0.5(8)(x − 4) − 3(7)
