OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

i think its a but im not sure..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@adajiamcneal Your answer is well :)

OpenStudy (theopenstudyowl):

I think it's 10 but I am a bit unsure...

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

ok thank you :) i have a couple more ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

K let me know :)

So let's take it easily and step-by-step , you have 2 polygons of the same shape and U want to compare them ... Then the easy step is to use ratio! \[\frac{ 12 }{ 40 } = \frac{ 3 }{ x }\] Then nw you have to get x in one side and othe stuff on the other side like that \[\frac{ x }{ 3 } = \frac{ 40 }{ 12 } \] Multiplying both sides by 3 : \[x = \frac{ 40 }{ 4 } = ?\] Let me know if you got it :)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

B ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aha (y)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

because 40/4 = 10 lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

c?

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

@Omar_Elboredy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 cm = 10 ft. then 4.7 cm = ? By criss-cross : ? = 4.7 * 10 = 47 ft :) Which will be "D" :)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

b? @Omar_Elboredy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To find length of hypotenuse use Pythagorean theorem . Applying this to given prob. you will get : \[\sqrt{17^2 + 17^2} = 17\sqrt{2}\] Which will be C

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

@Omar_Elboredy idk how to do this one.. i typed it in the calculator and i dont get any of the options.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could U plz show me wat U typed ! :D

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

lol i have a scientific calculator i typed in 7 and hit tan-1 haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So wat U got out ?

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

0.122784561 lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

O.o See. .. First be sure that you are in the deg. mode and then type in sth like this : \[\tan^{-1} 7\] and then hit equal sign then let me know wat U get :)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

it is in the degree mode and i still get the same thing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

U hit tan(7) ! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

U have to hit this : shift button then tan button u will get tan-1 shown on the screen :D then type 7 and show me wat U get

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

ohhhhhhh its c lol i feel dumb -.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

ok if i need more ill tagg you in a different question :) thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If U wanna pm me it's ok :)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

@ayyookyndall

OpenStudy (anonymous):

K let me see wat's next :D

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mmmmm I couldn't figure out what's wrong with that question .. I think it's 40 cm^2 but the answer is not shown ! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Aha I got the trick :D You have to calculate the missing portion of the base which will be 8 & \[\frac{ 4 }{ \sin(45) } = 4\sqrt{2}\] Then apply the rule you will get sth near "C" :)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For reflection about the y-axis you have think about it like you a mirror on the y-axis which means that the y-coordinates for each point will be the same the only change will be with the sign of x-coordinates for each point So wat will be the answer ? :)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By this you changed the sign of both x-coordinates and y-coordinates ... And we only want to change the sign of x's

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Its C, correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Take this as a rule : If you wanna reflect about x-axis just change the sign of y-coordinates only If you wanna reflect about y-axis just change the sign of x-coordinates only If you wanna reflect about the origin just think you do this in two steps .. one about x-axis and the other is about the y-axis :)

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This includes two separate types of data : Angle and length(magnitude) The angle is calculated like this : you know from trig rules that SOH CAH TOA >> \[\sin(x) = \frac{ Opposite }{ Hypotenuse } , \cos(x) = \frac{ Adjacent }{ Hypotenuse } , \tan(x) = \frac{ Opposite }{ Adjacent }\] Then you nw have wat for x ? Opposite which is -12 and Adjacent which is - 26 , then use which rule ? We use tan , the this will be sth like this : \[\tan(x) = \frac{ -12 }{ -26 }\] and to get x we have to do tan-1 ! :D then x will bet : \[x = \tan^{-1} (\frac{ -12 }{ -26 } = 24.775\] which is nearly 25 deg the nw for the direction : its west south (y) Now wat ? :D It's magnitude

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So let's calculate magnitude , as you know this is a right-angled triangle , so to get the length of hypotenuse we use the Pythagorean theory which is : \[a^2 = b^2 + c^2\] we here have b and c |dw:1432965278834:dw| so to get a we apply the rule and we simply get \[a^2 = 820\] to get a we take the square root for both sides in which we will get \[a = 29\] so the answer will be ? Let me know wat you figured out :D

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the value of angle (x) ?

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

24.775

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is 25 ok :D Then by this we exclude D and B , now what is the direction ?

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

west south

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

oh so its a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Exactly ! :D

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

ok im done :) kyndall might need help though so can you please help her ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

K no prob. feel free to ask me anytime :)
