Given That ABCD Is A Parallelogram With Diagonals Intersecting At M. Segment PQ Is Drawn Such That P

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

we thus have enough informnation to prove that the two triangles are congruent. Because of thism, one side of the triangles, Pm which is the congruent side to that of PQ must be equal as well and

PM = QM

Step-by-step explanation:

because it's a parrallelogram, Ad = BC and AB = DC.

P passes through both  AB and DC on a diagonal, angles created by P have oppoiste exterior angles of eachother.

the diagonals of AC create congruent angles at DMC and AMB and because P is cutting through them, the angles P cuts at DMQ and QMC are equal to that of AMP and PMB

that being said, we now see that the angles of APM triangle and AMC triangol are equal and because the diagonal of BD is is being cut by AC, which AD is parralel to BC  and AB to Dc, we know now that lines AM and MC are congruent

we thus have enough informnation to prove that the two triangles are congruent. Because of thism, one side of the triangles, Pm which is the congruent side to that of PQ must be equal as well and

thus PM = QM

Answer 2

The alternate interior angles formed by the parallel sides and a common

transversal are equal, such that ΔPBM and ΔQDM are congruent.

Correct response;

PM is congruent to QM  by CPCTC

How is the congruency of the segments determined?

Therefore;

PM is congruent to QM by Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent, CPCTC.

Kahleela starts the engine on her small private airplane. The engine drives a propeller with a radius of 8.5 feet and its centerline 11.5 feet above the ground. At idle, the propeller rotates at a constant speed of approximately 800 revolutions per minute. The height of one propeller tip as a function of time is given by h = 11.5 + 8.5 sin(800t), where h is the height in feet and t is the time in minutes. Find h when t = 5.5 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

a=21.1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the given (incorrect) equation and fill in the value of t to find h:

 h = 12.5 +9sin(750(3.5)) = 3.68 . . . . feet

__

Or, you can use the correct equation, or just your knowledge of revolutions:

 h = 12.5 +9sin(750(2π·3.5)) = 12.5 . . . . feet

in 3.5 minutes at 750 revolutions per minute, the propeller makes 2625 full revolutions, so is back where it started — at 12.5 feet above the ground.

divide 5 by 20

and you should y=4

since the polygons are similar x should have the same degrees as the bigger polygon

Answer: Y=4

Step-by-step explanation

Since the inside of a triangle is 180 degrees the 30 degrees plus the 90 degree corner minus the total inside degree so the other corner is 60 degrees. the dialation is 62.50  percent or .625 in decimal form which makes the vareable  y equals 4 once you divide 2.5 by .625

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 14 girls and 12 boys, so there are 26 students in total. Since we are looking for the ratio of girls to students, the ratio will be 14:26. To simplify it, we will divide 14 and 26 by their greatest common factor: 2. We will get the ratio of 7:13.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the fraction 15/60, 15 is the numerator and 60 is the denominator.

When you ask "What is 15/60 simplified?", we assume you want to know how to simplify the numerator and denominator to their smallest values, while still keeping the same value of the fraction.

We do this by first finding the greatest common factor of 15 and 60, which is 15.

Then, we divide both 15 and 60 by the greatest common factor to get the following simplified fraction:

Solve the equation x^2 – 5 = √ x – 2 by using successive approximation-

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x ≈ 2.367796

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a number of ways to use "successive approximation" to find a solution to an equation. You have not specified the method or the required accuracy.

__

One of the more tedious is the bisection method, which computes the value of the function at the midpoint of an interval, to see if that midpoint should be a new interval bound. This method requires about 3 iterations per decimal place of the answer.

Another method is the secant method. It computes the x-intercept of the secant line joining the points at the ends of the interval containing the solution. The function value at this x-intercept is used to see if that point should be a new interval bound. This method converges slightly faster than the bisection method. It is speeded by adjusting both ends of the interval.

Newton's method iteration converges at a quadratic rate, nearly doubling the number of correct decimal digits at each iteration. This works in a fashion similar to the secant method, except the x-intercept is computed from the function value and its derivative, not from points at the ends of an interval.

__

We assume you want the solution to ...

  x^2 -5 = √(x -2)

This is conveniently reformulated to ...

  x^2 -5 -√(x -2) = 0

so that we're seeking a zero of the function on the left.

The attached shows several iterations of the secant method. The function g is used to compute the x-intercept point on the line between (x1, f(x1)) and (x2, f(x2)). Then f(g( )) computes the function value at that x-intercept. We have used that to decide what the next interval limits (x1, x2) could be.

Our final guess at x is ...

  x ≈ 2.367796 . . . . secant method

which gives an error less than 10^-5 between the left- and right-sides of the equation.

Additional comments

At the bottom of the attachment is the Newton's Method iterator. The nice thing about this graphing calculator is that it displays the result of computing h(x) even as the value of x is being typed. This means you can type what you see and achieve full calculator precision for the solution in basically one pass. This method gives x = 2.36779701571.

Some hand-held graphing calculators have a derivative function built-in, so it is practical to use them to perform Newton's method iteration in substantially the same way.
