Step 5
5 of 8
The difference of altitude and median is that the altitude is the line segment connecting from a vertex of the triangle to the opposite side being **perpendicular** to it. Which means, it makes a **right angle** with the opposite side. Whereas the median is the line segment from a vertex of the triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side. **It may or may not make a right angle** to the opposite side. They can be in same line segment if the triangle is an **equilateral triangle**.

$$
left( dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2}, dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}right)
$$

Thus the coordinates of $M$ are then:

$$
M=left( dfrac{-3+6}{2}, dfrac{-1+11}{2}right)=(1.5,5)
$$

b. The point $P$ is the coordinates of $A$ increased by $dfrac{2}{3}$ the difference between the coordinates of $A$ and $B$:

$$
P=left( -3+dfrac{2}{3}(6-(-3)), -1+dfrac{2}{3}(11-(-1))right)=(3,7)
$$

c. The equation of a line through two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is:

$$
y-y_1=dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)
$$

Thus the equation of this line then becomes:

$$

d. Determine the distance using the distance formula: $sqrt{(x_2-x-1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

b. Expand the brackets:

$$
49+x^2=x^2+2x+1
$$

Subtract $x^2$ from both sides of the equation:

$$
49=2x+1
$$

Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:

$$
48=2x
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

Exercise 13
Step 1
1 of 2
a. Yes, because the altitude will also be the bisector $angle A$ and the median of the tirangle and thus $overline{AB}cong overline{AC}$, $angle BADcong angle CAD$ and $overline{AD}cong overline{AD}$, thus the two triangles are then congruent by SAS.

b. Since the altitude is also the bisector:
$$
mangle DAB=dfrac{36text{textdegree}}{2}=18text{textdegree}
$$

Since the altitude is also the median:

$$
BD=dfrac{BC}{2}=dfrac{8}{2}=4
$$

c. The tangent ratio is the opposite side divided by the adjacent rectangular side:

$$
tan{18text{textdegree}}=dfrac{AD}{4}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4;

$$
1.3approx 4tan{18text{textdegree}}=AD
$$

Exercise 14
Step 1
1 of 2
The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$, thus the missing angle measure is:

$$
180text{textdegree}-48text{textdegree}-72text{textdegree}=60text{textdegree}
$$

The measure of the exterior angle is the sum of the two opposite angle measures of the triangle:

$$
a=72text{textdegree}+60text{textdegree}=132text{textdegree}
$$

$$
b=48text{textdegree}+60text{textdegree}=108text{textdegree}
$$

$$
c=48text{textdegree}+72text{textdegree}=120text{textdegree}
$$

The sum of all exterior angle measures is then:

$$
132text{textdegree}+108text{textdegree}+120text{textdegree}=360text{textdegree}
$$

Result

sqrt{11^2+17^2}=sqrt{121+289}=sqrt{410}
$$

The perimeter is then the sum of the lengths of the sides of the triangle:

$$
11+17+sqrt{410}=28+sqrt{410}approx 48
$$

b. The tangent ratio is the opposite side divided by the adjacent rectangular side:

$$
theta_1 = tan^{-1}dfrac{11}{17}approx 33text{textdegree}

Exercise 18
Step 1
1 of 3
a.
$$
frac{x}{3.2}=frac{x^2}{7.5}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 240:

$$
75x=32x^2
$$

Subtract $75x$ from both sides of the equation:

$$
0=32x^2-75x
$$

Factorize:

$$
0=x(32x-75)
$$

Zero product property:

$$
x=0text{ or }32x-75=0
$$

Solve each equation to $x$:

$$
x=0text{ or }32x=75
$$

$$
x=0text{ or }x=dfrac{75}{32}
$$

b.
$$
4(x-2)+3(-x+4)=-2(x-3)
$$

Use distributive property:

$$
4x-8-3x+12=-2x+6
$$

Add $2x$ to both sides of the equation:

$$
3x+4=6
$$

Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:

$$
3x=2
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 3:

$$
x=dfrac{2}{3}
$$

Step 2
2 of 3
c.
$$
2x^2+7x-15=0
$$

Factorize:

$$
0=(2x-3)(x+5)
$$

Zero product property:

$$
2x-3=0text{ or }x+5=0
$$

Solve each equation to $x$:

$$
2x=3text{ or }x=-5
$$

$$
x=dfrac{3}{2}text{ or }x=-5
$$

d.
$$
3x^2-2x=-1
$$

Add 1 to both sides of the equation:

$$
3x^2-2x+1=0
$$

Determine the roots using the quadratic formula:

$$
x=dfrac{2pm sqrt{(-2)^2-4(3)(1)}}{2(3)}=dfrac{2pm 2sqrt{2}i}{6}=dfrac{1pm sqrt{2}i}{3}
$$

Result

b. $x=frac{2}{3}$

c. $x=frac{3}{2}$ or $x=-5$

The expression $(2+i)(5-i)$ yields the value $11+3i$

Step 4

&= 39i – 13i^2 \
& i^2 = -1 \
&= 39i – 13(-1) \

a. We know that the sum of all interior angles of a hexagon is $4cdot 180text{textdegree}=720text{textdegree}$ (see previous exercise) and since all angles are equal we then obtain:

Divide both sides of the equation by 6:

$$
x=120text{textdegree}
$$

b. We know that the sum of all interior angles of an octagon is $6cdot 180text{textdegree}=1080text{textdegree}$ (see previous exercise) and since all angles are equal we then obtain:

x=135text{textdegree}
$$

c. We know that the sum of all interior angles of a 100-gon is $98cdot 180text{textdegree}=17640text{textdegree}$ (see previous exercise) and since all angles are equal we then obtain:

$$
a=180text{textdegree}-120text{textdegree}=60text{textdegree}
$$

c. Since there are 6 angles:

$$
6cdot 60text{textdegree}=360text{textdegree}
$$

We note that the sum is 360$text{textdegree}$, which is normal because if you would lie all angles with the center at the same point, you would get a full 360$text{textdegree}$ angle.

The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$ and the base angles of a isosceles triangle are congruent:

$$
2y+36text{textdegree}=180text{textdegree}

Subtract 36$text{textdegree}$ from both sides of the equation:

Exercise 32
Step 1

**Concept**
Two triangles are said to be similar when their corresponding angles are congruent and their corresponding sides are proportional.
Step 2
2 of 9
**$bigtriangleup$ LMN**
The triangle LMN can be illustrated as follows:
![‘slader’](https://slader-solution-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/b2ec7300-d4c5-49f4-83ca-a2e2fc8e70eb-1626598155191897.png)

We can observe that since all the sides of the triangle are equal, it $bigtriangleup$ LMN is an equilateral triangle. Another property of this triangle is that all three interior angles of are equal, such that $angle LMN = angle MNL = angle NLM = 60^circ$

Step 3
3 of 9
**Part a**
The figure for the triangle in part a is shown below:
![‘slader’](https://slader-solution-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/9d036d8c-a3f0-46a6-baa2-e28614fcde31-1626598565844505.png)

From the figure, we observe that all the interior angles of the triangle in part a is equal to $60^circ$. Since all its interior angles are equal to each other, this triangle is an equilateral triangle. Also, this property can also be observed in $bigtriangleup$ LMN. Moreover, from the AAA (angle-angle-angle) similarity theorem, if two triangles have the same interior angle, then the two triangles are said to be similar. Hence, this triangle is similar to $bigtriangleup$ LMN.

Step 4
4 of 9
**Part b**
The triangle in part b can be illustrated as follows:
![‘slader’](https://slader-solution-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ddb97ffd-c8e5-41d0-9625-76f23497e9a5-1626598709491492.png)

From the figure, we observe that all three sides of the triangle share equal lengths, hence, it is an equilateral triangle. From the SSS (side-side-side) similarity theorem, if the three sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.

Step 5
5 of 9
We check the proportionality of the sides of the two triangles as follows:
$$begin{aligned}
& frac{text{side of triangle in Part b}}{text{side of $bigtriangleup$ LMN}} \
frac{a}{2} &=boxed{ frac{a}{2} }\
frac{a}{2} &=boxed{ frac{a}{2} }\
frac{a}{2} &=boxed{ frac{a}{2} }\
end{aligned}$$

From the results, we observe that this triangle is proportional to $bigtriangleup$ LMN, hence, this triangle is similar to $bigtriangleup$ LMN.

Step 6
6 of 9
**Part c**
The triangle in part c can be illustrated as follows:
![‘slader’](https://slader-solution-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/f7da6bbe-1b0f-4811-bea8-86cc322ee28d-1626599058234549.png)

From the figure, we observe that all three sides of the triangle are equal and each having a length of $2$. From the SSS (side-side-side) similarity theorem, if the three sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar. Since this triangle share the same length of the sides in $bigtriangleup$ LMN, hence, this triangle is similar to $bigtriangleup$ LMN.

Step 7
7 of 9
**Part d**
The triangle in part d can be illustrated as follows:
![‘slader’](https://slader-solution-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/d9bb8ff3-9013-4ff0-9876-c2323cb3563c-1626599459051449.png)

From the figure, we observe that all three sides of the triangle share equal lengths, hence, it is an equilateral triangle. From the SSS (side-side-side) similarity theorem, if the three sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.

Step 8
8 of 9
We check the proportionality of the sides of the two triangles as follows:
$$begin{aligned}
& frac{text{side of triangle in Part d}}{text{side of $bigtriangleup$ LMN}} \
frac{5}{2} &=boxed{ frac{5}{2} }\
frac{5}{2} &=boxed{ frac{5}{2} }\
frac{5}{2} &=boxed{ frac{5}{2} }\
end{aligned}$$

From the results, we observe that this triangle is proportional to $bigtriangleup$ LMN, hence, this triangle is similar to $bigtriangleup$ LMN.

Step 9
9 of 9
We observe that using the AAA Similarity Theorem, SSS Similarity Theorem, and the property of equilateral triangles, all four triangles are similar to $bigtriangleup$ LMN.
Exercise 33
Step 1
1 of 3
a. METHOD 1

Since one half of the diagonal is 6, the diagonal is 12. Determine the side of the square $x$ using the Pythagorean theorem:

$$
2x^2=x^2+x^2=12^2=144
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

$$
x^2=72
$$

Take the square root of both sides of the equation:

$$
x=sqrt{72}=6sqrt{2}
$$

The area of a square is then the length of one of its sides squared:

$$
(6sqrt{2})^2=36cdot 2=72
$$

a. METHOD 2

Since the diagonals in a square intersect at a right angle and since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

$$
dfrac{6cdot 6}{2}=18
$$

Since the square contains 4 of these triangles:

AREA=4cdot 18=72
$$

Step 2

b. Method 2

The area of a regular hexagon is

$$

b. METHOD 2

Determine the height of one triangle using the Pythagorean theorem:

$$
sqrt{8^2-4^2}=sqrt{48}=4sqrt{3}
$$

Since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

$$
dfrac{8cdot 4sqrt{3}}{2}=16sqrt{3}

Since the square contains 6 of these triangles:

Since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

$$

Determine the height of the triangle using the tangent ratio:

x=7.5tan{54text{textdegree}}approx 10.3
$$

Since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

$$
dfrac{15cdot 10.3}{2}=77.25ft^2
$$

Since the square contains 5 of these triangles:

$$
AREA=5cdot 77.25ft^2=386.25ft^2
$$

Divide the total area by the square feet per bag and round this number up to obtain the number of bags needed:

$$
dfrac{386.25}{150}= 2.575approx 3
$$

Thus she will need about 3 bags.

y=2cos{67.5text{textdegree}}approx 0.8
$$

Since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

$$
dfrac{1.6cdot 1.8}{2}=1.44
$$

Since the polygon contains 8 of these triangles:

$$
AREA=8cdot 1.44=11.52ft^2

Determine the base and the height of the triangle using the sine, cosine and tangent ratios and that the angles of a regular $n$-gon are $dfrac{n-2}{n}180text{textdegree}$. Then determine the area of one triangle. Finally multiply the area of one triangle by $n$ to obtain the area of the regular polygon.

Then determine the area of one triangle. Finally multiply the area of one triangle by $n$ to obtain the area of the regular polygon.
Exercise 39
Step 1
1 of 2
METHOD 1. Since the interior angle is given by $dfrac{n-2}{n}180text{textdegree}$ we obtain:

$$
dfrac{n-2}{n}180text{textdegree}=135text{textdegree}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $n$:

$$
(n-2)180=135n
$$

Use distributive property:

$$
180n-360=135n
$$

Subtract $135n$ from both sides of the equation:

$$
45n-360=0
$$

Add 360 to both sides of the equation:

$$
45n=360
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 45:

$$
n=8
$$

Thus the regular polygon has 8 sides.

METHOD 2 The interior angle of a regular octagon is 135$text{textdegree}$ and thus the polygon has 8 sides.

This method was more efficient, however for regular polygons with more sides the other method is easier to use.

P(text{Green Fang})&=64%=0.64
\ P(text{Alarm})&=28%=0.28
\ P(text{Green Fang and Alarm})&=22%=0.22

$$

a. The probability of having neither system is 100% decreased by having either system (do not forget to add those that have both, because they will have been subtracted twice):

$$
begin{align*}
&P(text{neither})
\ &=100%-P(text{Green Fang or Alarm})
\ &=1-(P(text{Green Fang})+P(text{Alarm})-P(text{Green Fang and Alarm}))
\ &=1-P(text{Green Fang})-P(text{Alarm})+P(text{Green Fang and Alarm})
\ &=1-0.64-0.28+0.22
\ &=0.30
\ &=30%
end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 5
b. Let us first determine the probability that a car had Green Fang or was protected by an alarm system using the general addition rule: $P(Acup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(Acap B)$

$$
begin{align*}
&P(text{Green Fang or Alarm})
\ &=P(text{Green Fang})+P(text{Alarm})-P(text{Green Fang and Alarm})
\ &=0.64+0.28-0.22
\ &=0.70
end{align*}
$$

A car had Green Fang and was not protected by an alarm system, when the car had Green Fang or an alarm, but did not have an alarm.

$$
begin{align*}
&P(text{Green Fang and No alarm})
\ &=P(text{Green Fang or Alarm})-P(text{Alarm})
\ &=0.70-0.28
\ &=0.42
\ &=42%
end{align*}
$$

Step 3
3 of 5
c. Two events are $textbf{disjoint}$ or $textbf{mutually exclusive}$, if the events cannot occur at the same time.

Since 22% had both Green Fang and an alarm system, the two events “Green Fang” and “Alarm system” can occur at the same time and thus the events are $textbf{not disjoint}$.

Step 4
4 of 5
d. Two events $A$ and $B$ are independent if and only if $P(Atext{ and }B)=P(A)cdot P(B)$.

$$
begin{align*}
P(text{Green Fang and Alarm})&=0.22=22%
\ P(text{Green Fang})cdot P(text{Alarm})&=0.64cdot 0.28=0.1792=17.92%
end{align*}
$$

Since $P(text{Green Fang and Alarm})neq P(text{Green Fang})cdot P(text{Alarm})$, the events are not independent and thus there is an association between Green Fang and Alarm. Moreover, the percentage of both events occurring (22%) is very close to the percentage of alarm systems (28%) and thus Green Fang appears to be associated with having an alarm.

Result
5 of 5
a. $0.30=30%$

b. $0.42=42%$

c. No

d. Green Fang appears to be associated with having an alarm.

The dimensions have been multiplied by 3, thus the area will be multiplied by $3^2=9$.

Determine the height of the triangle using the tangent ratio:

$$
x=5tan{60text{textdegree}}approx 8.7
$$

$$
x=15tan{60text{textdegree}}approx 26
$$

Since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

$$
dfrac{5cdot 8.7}{2}=21.75
$$

$$
dfrac{15cdot 26}{2}=195
$$

Since the square contains 6 of these triangles:

$$
AREA=6cdot 21.75=130.5
$$

$$
AREA=6cdot 195=1170
$$

Then we note that $9cdot 130.5approx 1170$

Exercise 58
Step 1
1 of 2
a. The interior angle and exterior angle are supplementary angles:

$$
180text{textdegree}-20text{textdegree}=160text{textdegree}
$$

b. Since the interior angle is given by $dfrac{n-2}{n}180text{textdegree}$ we obtain:

$$
dfrac{n-2}{n}180text{textdegree}=160text{textdegree}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $n$:

$$
(n-2)180=160n
$$

Use distributive property:

$$
180n-360=160n
$$

Subtract $160n$ from both sides of the equation:

$$
20n-360=0
$$

Add 360 to both sides of the equation:

$$
20n=360
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 20:

$$
n=18
$$

Thus the regular polygon has 18 sides.

Result

a. 160$text{textdegree}$

b. 18 sides

Exercise 59
Step 1

Determine the height of the triangle using the tangent ratio:

$$
x=2tan{60text{textdegree}}=2sqrt{3}
$$

Since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

$$
dfrac{4cdot 2sqrt{3}}{2}=4sqrt{3}
$$

Since the hexagon contains 6 of these triangles:

$$
AREA=6cdot 4sqrt{3}=24sqrt{3}
$$

Thus the area of the square also has to be $24sqrt{3}$. Using the Pythagorean theorem determine the length of the side:

$$
x=sqrt{dfrac{(24sqrt{3})^2}{2}}=sqrt{864}=12sqrt{6}
$$

Exercise 62

The quadratic formula is

$$
x=dfrac{-bpm sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
$$

Determine the roots using the quadratic formula:

$$
x=dfrac{-7pm sqrt{7^2-4(1)(k)}}{2(1)}=dfrac{-7pm sqrt{49-4k}}{2}
$$

The expression is then factorable if

$$
49-4kgeq 0
$$

Dubtract 49 from both sides of the inequality:

$$
-4kgeq -49
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by $-4$:

$$
kleq 12.25
$$

Thus for $k=0$ till $k=12$ the expression is factorable.The probability is then the number of favorable outcomes divided by the number of possible outcomes:

a. Divide the regular hexagon into six congruent triangles. Determine the height of the triangle using the tangent ratio:

Since the area of a triangle is the product of the base and height divided by 2, the area of one of the smaller triangles is:

Since the hexagon contains 6 of these triangles:

Subtract 340 from both sides of the equation:

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

a. Since the perimeter of the triangle will be 24, the length of one of its sides will be 8. The height is then $4sqrt{3}$ (since one of its angles are 60$text{textdegree}$). The area of a rectangle is the product of the base and the height divided by 2:

$$
dfrac{8cdot 4sqrt{3}}{2}=16sqrt{3}approx 27.7
$$

b. Since the perimeter of the square will be 24, the length of one of its sides will be 6. The area of a square is one of its sides squared:

Thus we note that the area of the square is larger than the area of the triangle.

*How can we prove two right triangles are congruent?*

Step 2
2 of 5
In addition to the SAS, SSS, ASA, and AAS triangle congruence theorems, when trying to prove right triangles are congruent we can also use the **HL $boldsymbol{cong}$ Theorem**. This theorem states:

If two right triangles have congruent hypotenuses and a pair of congruent legs, then the right triangles are congruent.

Step 3
3 of 5
**Plan:**

Before we start the proof, let’s make a plan on how to go from our Given statement to our Prove statement.

It is given that $overline{AB}perpoverline{DE}$ and $overline{DE}$ is a diameter of the circle. Let’s start by labeling the given diagram with all of the congruent segments. Recall that all radii of a circle must be congruent. Also, a segment is congruent to itself by the Reflexive Property so we can label $FC$ with tick marks to emphasize this:

$$text{Figure 1: Labeled diagram}$$

From Figure $1$, we can now see that the right triangles $triangle ACF$ and $triangle BCF$ have congruent hypotenuses and a pair of congruent legs.

Our plan for the proof is then:
1. State our givens.
2. Use the definition of $perp$ lines to list the right angles.
3. Use the Reflexive Property to conclude $overline{FC}congoverline{FC}$.
4. Use the HL $cong$ theorem to state the triangles are congruent.
5. Use the definition of congruence to conclude $overline{AF}$ and $overline{FB}$ are congruent.

Exercise 99
Step 1

a. Because the first step in solving the equation would be to subtract 4 from both sides of the equation and then we obtain that the square is equal to a negative number, which is not possible. Thus the equation has no (real) solutions.

b. No, the solutions are complex. Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:

$$
(x-11)^2=-4
$$

Take the square root of both sides of the equation:

$$

Exercise 102
Step 1

The area of a circle is given by $A=pi r^2$ and the diameter is twice the radius. The circumference of a circle is $C=2pi r$:

$$
A=pi 1.5^2=2.25piapprox 7 in^2
$$

The area of a square is the length of its side squared:

$$
A=12^2=144in^2
$$

Thus the amount of cookie dough wasted is then:

$$
144in^2-16cdot 7in^2approx 31in^2
$$

The amount of cookie dough wasted for a few other diameters is:

$$
144in^2-1cdot pi(6)^2in^2approx 31in^2
$$

$$
144in^2-4cdot pi(3)^2in^2approx 31in^2
$$

$$
144in^2-9cdot pi(2)^2in^2approx 31in^2

Thus we note that the radius of the cookies does not change the amount of cookie dough wasted.
