when asked to write a point slope equation for a line passing through the points (-3,5) and (2,4) , a student wrote y-4=9/5(x-2)

. how can he fix this to write the correction equation

Given: ABCD is a quadrilateral, BC║AD, m∠ A = 90°

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Rearrange the equations that result from use of the Pythagorean theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transversal AB crossing parallel lines AD and BC makes supplementary interior same-side angles A and B. Since A = 90°, B must be 90°. The Pythagorean theorem then applies in the right triangles ABC and ABD.

We can use that theorem to write two expressions for AB^2:

BD^2 -AD^2 = AB^2 = AC^2 -BC^2

The middle expression, AB^2, isn't needed beyond this point. Adding (AD^2 -AC^2) to both sides of the equation gives the desired result:

BD^2 -AC^2 = AD^2 -BC^2

Helen has 48 cubic inches of clay to make a solid square right pyramid with a base edge measuring 6 inches. Which is the slant h

Nikitich [7]

Answer: 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Volume of clay = 48 cubic inches

If we make a solid square right pyramid with a base edge a= 6 inches.

Then its base area = $a^2=6^2=36\ inches^2$

we know that volume of square right pyramid= $\frac{1}{3}\times\ a^2h$

Therefore, volume of square right pyramid made by all of clay= $\frac{1}{3}\times\ a^2h$ =48 cubic inches

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}\times\ (36)\times\ h=48\\\Rightarrow12h=48\\\Rightarrow\ h=4\ inches.....\text{[Divide 12 on both sides]}$

Now, slant height $l=\sqrt{(\frac{a}{2})^2+h^2}$

$\\\Rightarrow\ l=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}\\\Rightarrow\ l=\sqrt{9+16}\\\rightarrow\ l=\sqrt{25}\\\Rightarrow\ l=5$

The slant height of the pyramid if Helen uses all the clay=5 inches
