Joseph said that a rhombus with side lengths of 6 meters and a height of 4 meters has the same area as a parallelogram with a base of 12 meters and a height of 2 meters. Is he correct? Critique Joseph's reasoning. help plzz​

Answers

Answer:

Area(s) of both rhombus and parallelogram are equal at 24 meters squared. Therefore Joseph had the correct reasoning in regards to area(s) of both rhombus and parallelogram are equal at 24 meters squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

To equate area of the rhombus, multiply the side length and height of rhombus in meters. (6 meters×4 meters=Area of 24 m°2). Area of parallelogram = (12meters ×2 meters= 24 m°2. Area(s) of both rhombus and parallelogram are equal at 24 meters squared. therefore

If you're good at angles of depression please help meeeeee and show full working out tyyyyyyyyyy

Answers

Answer:

  236.9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the distances to the near and far cars, respectively. You know from the definition of the tangent of an angle that ...

  tan(angle of depression) = building height/distance to car

  tan(10°39') = 150/x

  x = 150/tan(10°39')

and

  tan(8°15') = 150/y

  y = 150/tan(8°15')

The difference of these two distances is the distance between the cars:

  y - x = 150/tan(8°15') -150/tan(10°39')

__

The minutes of arc can be converted to fractional degrees:

  15' = 15'/(60'/1°) = (15/60)° = 0.25°

  39' = 39'/(60'/1°) = (39/60)° = (13/20)° = 0.65°

So, the distance of interest is ...

  distance between cars = (150 m)(1/tan(8.25°) -1/tan(10.65°)) ≈ 236.86 m

The cars are about 236.9 meters apart.

what they said is definitely right

In trapezoid ABCD, AB ∥ CD , m∠A=90°, AD=8 in, DC=9 in, CB=10 in, and ∠B is acute. Find DB.

Answers

Answer:

the length of DB is 17 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the sketch attached.

We will draw an imaginary line from point C to met line AB at point E.

A right-angled triangle will now be formed between points CBE.

The dimensions of the right-angled triangle will be:

CB = 10 in

CE= 8 in

EB = unknown

We will now proceed to find out the length of side EB using the Pythagoras' theorem.

[tex]EB =\sqrt{CB^2 -CE^2} \\EB =\sqrt{10^2 -8^2} \\EB = 6 in[/tex]

From the shape, we can find out that another right-angled triangle is made between points DAB.

The dimensions of the triangle are:

DA= 8in

AB = 9 in + 6 in = 15 in

DB = unknown.

We will now proceed to find out the length of side DB using the Pythagoras' theorem.

[tex]DB =\sqrt{AD^2 +AB^2} \\DB =\sqrt{8^2 +15^2} \\DB = 17 in[/tex]

Therefore, the length of DB is 17 in

The answer to this question is that the length of DB is 17 in

John ran 1 2 mile in 5 minutes, and Al ran 1 3 mile in 4 minutes. Which runner ran at a faster rate?

Answers

Answer:

John ran at a faster rate

Step-by-step explanation:

If john runs 1/2 mile in 5 minutes, then for him to run 1 mile it would take 10 minutes because it takes john 5 minutes for every half of a mile. Now Al runs 1/3 mile in 4 minutes. If he would run 1 mile, it would take him 12 minutes because it takes him four minutes every third mile.  

1/3 : 4    =       3/3 : 12        Al

he plans to have 2 tables for every 8 guest, which means 1 table for each 4 guest!

now:

2(tables)×4(number of people at each table)=8(number of guests

4×4=16

5×4=20

32(number of guests)÷4(number of people at each table)=8(number of tables)

9×4= 36

Answer:

Since there are 8 guests every 2 table we need to find how many guests are in one table:

8 ÷ 2 = 4 guests

4 tables = 4 x 4 = 16 guests

5 tables = 5 x 4 = 20 guests

32 guests = 32 ÷ 4 = 8 tables

Tax rate = 1%

Monthly income of the person = rs. 16400

Now,

Yearly income of individual = rs. 16400×12=rs196800

Tax = tax rate × yearly income

what is (8*8*8) * (8*8*8*8) in exponential form?​

Answers

Answer:  8^7

The exponent 7 tells us how many copies of "8" are being multiplied together.

The expression 8*8*8 is equal to 8^3, while 8*8*8*8 = 8^4

Multiplying 8^3 and 8^4 will have us add the exponents to get 8^7. The base stays at 8 the entire time.

The rule is a^b*a^c = a^(b+c) where the base is 'a' the entire time.

Answer:

8^ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(8*8*8) * (8*8*8*8)

There are 3 8's times 4 8's

Step-by-step explanation:

About the diagram

Attached is a diagram of the problem. The directions North and East are shown so that the usual clockwise from +x measurement of angles will correspond to the bearing angles given in the problem. That is, the bearing of 120° is an angle of 120° measured from North toward East. (The mirroring across the line y=x can be a little mind-bending, but it is isomorphic, so all angles and lengths remain unchanged.)

The other feature of this diagram is the projection of the 3-D problem into two dimensions. Effectively, the center angle rabbit-O-coyote represents a plan view (in the plane of the ground), and the triangles coyote-O-C1 and rabbit-O-R1 represent side views (views in the vertical plane).

The side views let us work out the ground distances O-rabbit and O-coyote, so that we can find the ground distance rabbit-coyote as the problem requests.

__

Problem solution

The distance from the tree (O) to the rabbit is the "adjacent" leg of the 30° angle of elevation from the rabbit to the tree top. The 10 m tree height is the "opposite" leg of that rabbit-O-R1 right triangle. We know the ratio of opposite to adjacent sides gives the tangent of the angle, so we have ...

  tan(30°) = 10/(rabbit distance from tree)

Solving for the rabbit distance, we get

  rabbit distance = 10/tan(30°) ≈ 17.3205 m

Similarly, the coyote distance from the tree will be ...

  coyote distance = 10/tan(20°) ≈ 27.4748 m

__

These are two legs of the rabbit-O-coyote triangle. The angle at O between the rabbit and coyote is 120° -97° = 23°. These values are sufficient to let us use the Law of Cosines to find the distance d from rabbit to coyote:

  d² = r² +c² -2rc·cos(23°)

  d² = 17.3205² +27.4748² -2·17.3205·27.4748·cos(23°) ≈ 178.769

  d ≈ √178.769 ≈ 13.37 . . . . meters

The distance from the rabbit to the coyote is about 13.4 meters.

_____

Additional comment

Note that the angle of depression to the rabbit from the horizontal is the same as the angle of elevation from the rabbit. This lets us draw the diagram without a bunch of extra lines.

A pantry contains 6 shelves each 42 inches long.
The shelves are to be relined with fresh paper.
The paper is sold in 1-yard rolls. The number
of 1-yard rolls needed is:

Answers

Answer:

7 1-yard rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard = 36 inches.

6(42 in) = 252 inches.

252 in/36 in = 7

Therefore, 7 1-yard rolls are needed.

The number of 1-yard rolls needed to sell 6 shelves each of 42 inches is 7.

Given,

A pantry contains 6 shelves.

Each shelves = 42 inches long.

The shelves are to be relined with fresh paper.

The paper is sold in 1-yard rolls.

We need to find the number of 1-yards rolls needed to sell 6 shelves.

How many inches is 1yards?

1 yard = 36 inches.

We have,

6 shelves and each shelves is 42 inches.

1 shelves = 42 inches.

6 shelves = 6 x 42 inches

6 shelves = 252 inches.

And since,

36 inches = 1 yard

252 inches = (252/36) yard

252 inches = 7 yard

Thus the number of 1-yard rolls needed to sell 6 shelves each of 42 inches is 7 1-yard rolls.
