By drawing altitude

CE

perpendicular to

AB

, we form rectangle

AECD

and right triangle

\triangle CEB

. Since

\angle B = 60^\circ

,

\triangle CEB

is a

30^\circ

-

60^\circ

-

90^\circ

triangle with hypotenuse

BC = 8

. The side opposite

30^\circ

is

BE = 8/2 = 4

, and the side opposite

60^\circ

is

CE = 4\sqrt{3}

. Since opposite sides of rectangle

AECD

are equal, we find

AD = CE = 4\sqrt{3}

and

AE = CD = 7

. Thus,

AB = AE + BE = 7 + 4 = 11

. Finally, we apply the Pythagorean Theorem to right triangle

\triangle DAB

:

BD^2 = AD^2 + AB^2 = (4\sqrt{3})^2 + 11^2 = 48 + 121 = 169

, yielding

BD = 13

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Decompose the trapezoid by drawing an altitude from

C

perpendicular to

AB

, meeting it at

E

.

This forms a rectangle

AECD

and a right triangle

CEB

.

Decomposing the figure allows us to use right triangle trigonometry and parallel line relationships to determine missing side lengths.

2

Calculate the lengths of the legs of right triangle

CEB

.

BE = 4

and

CE = 4\sqrt{3}

.

Since

\angle B = 60^\circ

,

\triangle CEB

is a

30^\circ

-

60^\circ

-

90^\circ

triangle. The shorter leg

BE

is half the hypotenuse

BC

, and the longer leg

CE

is the shorter leg times

\sqrt{3}

.

3

Determine the lengths of

AD

and

AB

.

AD = 4\sqrt{3}

and

AB = 11

.

In the rectangle

AECD

, opposite sides are equal, so

AD = CE = 4\sqrt{3}

and

AE = CD = 7

. Thus, the base

AB = AE + BE = 7 + 4 = 11

.

4

Use the Pythagorean Theorem in right triangle

DAB

to solve for

BD

.

BD = 13

.

In right triangle

DAB

, the legs are

AD = 4\sqrt{3}

and

AB = 11

. The hypotenuse

BD

satisfies

BD^2 = AD^2 + AB^2 = (4\sqrt{3})^2 + 11^2 = 48 + 121 = 169

, so

BD = \sqrt{169} = 13

A circle in the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane is described by the equation $x^2 + y^2 = 25$ . A line is described by the equation $3x - 4y = c$ , where $c$ is a positive constant. If the system of these two equations has exactly one real solution for $(x, y)$ , what is the value of $c$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 25

Cevap

The value of

c

is

25

.

The correct answer is

25

. The equation

x^2 + y^2 = 25

represents a circle centered at

(0, 0)

with a radius of

5

. For the system of equations to have exactly one real solution, the line

3x - 4y = c

must be tangent to the circle. The perpendicular distance from the center

(0,0)

to the line

3x - 4y - c = 0

is given by

\frac{|3(0) - 4(0) - c|}{\sqrt{3^2 + (-4)^2}} = \frac{|c|}{5}

. Setting this distance equal to the radius of the circle yields

\frac{|c|}{5} = 5

, which gives

|c| = 25

. Since

c

is specified as a positive constant,

c

must be

25

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the center and radius of the circle.

Center is

(0, 0)

and radius is

r = 5

.

The circle equation

x^2 + y^2 = 25

is in the standard form

x^2 + y^2 = r^2

centered at the origin with radius

r = \sqrt{25} = 5

.

2

Set up the condition for tangency (exactly one real solution).

The perpendicular distance from the center

(0,0)

to the line

3x - 4y - c = 0

must equal the radius

5

.

A line intersects a circle at exactly one point if and only if the line is tangent to the circle.

3

Apply the point-to-line distance formula.

Distance

d = \frac{|3(0) - 4(0) - c|}{\sqrt{3^2 + (-4)^2}} = \frac{|c|}{5}

.

The formula for the distance from

(x_0, y_0)

to the line

Ax + By + C = 0

is

d = \frac{|Ax_0 + By_0 + C|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}}

.

4

Solve for the positive constant

c

.

c = 25

Setting the distance

\frac{|c|}{5}

equal to the radius

5

gives

|c| = 25

. Since

c

is a positive constant,

c = 25

.

Alternatif Yöntem

Instead of using the geometric distance formula, the system can be solved algebraically by substitution. Express

y

in terms of

x

from the linear equation:

y = \frac{3x - c}{4}

. Substitute this expression into the circle's equation:

x^2 + \left(\frac{3x - c}{4}\right)^2 = 25

. Expand the terms and multiply by

16

to clear the denominator:

16x^2 + 9x^2 - 6cx + c^2 = 400

, which simplifies to the quadratic equation

25x^2 - 6cx + (c^2 - 400) = 0

. For the system to have exactly one solution, this quadratic equation must have a discriminant equal to zero. Calculate the discriminant:

D = (-6c)^2 - 4(25)(c^2 - 400) = 36c^2 - 100c^2 + 40000 = -64c^2 + 40000 = 0

. Solving for

c

yields

64c^2 = 40000 \implies c^2 = 625

. Since

c

is a positive constant,

c = 25

.

One of the solutions to the quadratic equation $0.5x^2 + bx - 6 = 0$ , where $b$ is a constant, is $x = 3$ . What is the value of the other solution?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: -4

Cevap

The other solution to the quadratic equation is -4.

Substituting the given solution

x = 3

into the equation yields

0.5(3)^2 + 3b - 6 = 0

. Simplifying this expression gives

4.5 + 3b - 6 = 0

, which leads to

3b = 1.5

and thus

b = 0.5

. With

b = 0.5

, the quadratic equation becomes

0.5x^2 + 0.5x - 6 = 0

. Multiplying the entire equation by 2 to obtain integer coefficients results in

x^2 + x - 12 = 0

. This quadratic factors into

(x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

, which gives the solutions

x = 3

and

x = -4

. Therefore, the other solution is

-4

. Alternatively, using Vieta's formulas, the product of the roots of a quadratic equation

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

is equal to

c/a

. Here, the product of the roots is

-6 / 0.5 = -12

. Since one root is

3

, the other root must be

-12 / 3 = -4

.

Substitute the given solution

x = 3

into the quadratic equation to find the value of

b

.

b = 0.5

In $\triangle ABC$ , the measure of exterior angle $\angle ACD$ is $135^\circ$ , where $D$ lies on the extension of side $BC$ past $C$ . If the measure of interior angle $\angle A$ is $25^\circ$ greater than the measure of interior angle $\angle B$ , what is the measure, in degrees, of $\angle B$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 55

Cevap

55

According to the Exterior Angle Theorem, the measure of exterior angle

\angle ACD

is equal to the sum of the measures of its remote interior angles,

\angle A

and

\angle B

. This gives the equation

\text{m}\angle A + \text{m}\angle B = 135^\circ

. Using the information that

\text{m}\angle A = \text{m}\angle B + 25^\circ

, we substitute this expression into the equation to get

(\text{m}\angle B + 25^\circ) + \text{m}\angle B = 135^\circ

. Simplifying this equation gives

2\text{m}\angle B + 25 = 135

, which simplifies to

2\text{m}\angle B = 110

, and dividing by 2 yields

\text{m}\angle B = 55^\circ

.

1

Apply the Exterior Angle Theorem to express the relation between the exterior angle and the two remote interior angles.

\text{m}\angle A + \text{m}\angle B = 135^\circ

The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of its two remote interior angles.

2

Substitute the relationship between the interior angles into the equation.

(\text{m}\angle B + 25^\circ) + \text{m}\angle B = 135^\circ

The problem states that the measure of interior angle

\angle A

is

25^\circ

greater than the measure of interior angle

\angle B

.

3

Solve the algebraic equation for the measure of interior angle

\angle B

.

\text{m}\angle B = 55^\circ

Combining like terms gives

2\text{m}\angle B + 25 = 135

. Subtracting 25 from both sides gives

2\text{m}\angle B = 110

. Dividing by 2 yields

\text{m}\angle B = 55^\circ

For all real values of $x$ that satisfy the inequality $5 - \frac{3x - 2}{4} \ge \frac{x + 6}{2}$ , the solution set is represented by $x \le b$ . What is the value of $b$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2

Cevap

The value of

b

is 2.

To solve

5 - \frac{3x - 2}{4} \ge \frac{x + 6}{2}

, multiply all terms by 4 to clear the denominators, resulting in

20 - (3x - 2) \ge 2(x + 6)

. Carefully distribute the negative sign to obtain

20 - 3x + 2 \ge 2x + 12

. Simplifying the left side gives

22 - 3x \ge 2x + 12

. Moving the variable terms to one side yields

10 \ge 5x

, which simplifies to

x \le 2

. Thus, the upper bound value

b

is 2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply both sides of the inequality by the least common denominator, which is 4.

20 - (3x - 2) \ge 2(x + 6)

Multiplying all terms by the common denominator eliminates fractions and simplifies the inequality.

2

Distribute the negative sign to the numerator terms on the left and distribute the 2 on the right.

20 - 3x + 2 \ge 2x + 12

Distributing the negative sign across

(3x - 2)

changes it to

-3x + 2

. Distributing 2 across

(x + 6)

yields

2x + 12

.

3

Combine like terms on the left side of the inequality.

22 - 3x \ge 2x + 12

Combining the constant terms

20

and

2

simplifies the expression to

22

.

4

Isolate the variable terms by adding

3x

and subtracting 12 from both sides.

10 \ge 5x

Grouping variables on one side and constants on the other allows us to solve for

x

.

5

Divide both sides by 5.

2 \ge x

(or

x \le 2

)

Dividing by a positive number isolates the variable without changing the direction of the inequality sign.

Alternatif Yöntem

We can write the inequality by separating each fraction term first:

5 - \frac{3}{4}x + \frac{2}{4} \ge \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{6}{2}

. This simplifies to

5.5 - 0.75x \ge 0.5x + 3

. Subtracting

0.5x

and

5.5

from both sides gives

-1.25x \ge -2.5

. Dividing by

-1.25

and reversing the inequality sign gives

x \le 2

.

In the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane, a circle is defined by the equation $x^2 + y^2 = 25$ and a line is defined by the equation $3x + 4y = 15$ . The line intersects the circle at two points, $A$ and $B$ . What is the distance between point $A$ and point $B$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The distance between the two intersection points is 8.

The correct answer is 8. We can find the intersection points by substituting

y = \frac{15 - 3x}{4}

into the circle's equation

x^2 + y^2 = 25

, yielding the quadratic equation

5x^2 - 18x - 35 = 0

. Solving this gives

x = 5

and

x = -1.4

, with corresponding

y

-coordinates

y = 0

and

y = 4.8

. The distance between

(5, 0)

and

(-1.4, 4.8)

is

\sqrt{(-1.4 - 5)^2 + (4.8 - 0)^2} = \sqrt{6.4^2 + 4.8^2} = \sqrt{64} = 8

. Alternatively, we can use geometry: the distance from the center of the circle

(0,0)

to the line

3x + 4y - 15 = 0

is

d = \frac{|3(0) + 4(0) - 15|}{\sqrt{3^2 + 4^2}} = 3

. Since the radius of the circle is

r = 5

, the right triangle formed by the radius, the perpendicular segment, and half the chord has a half-chord length of

\sqrt{5^2 - 3^2} = 4

. Thus, the total chord length is

2 \times 4 = 8

.

The sum of the measures of all but one of the interior angles of a convex polygon is $2010^\circ$ . What is the measure, in degrees, of the remaining interior angle?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 150

Cevap

The measure of the remaining interior angle is 150 degrees.

The sum of the interior angles of any convex polygon with

n

sides is a multiple of

180^\circ

given by

(n-2) \times 180^\circ

. Because the polygon is convex, the measure of the remaining angle must be strictly less than

180^\circ

. Thus, the total sum of all interior angles must be the smallest multiple of

180^\circ

that is strictly greater than the given sum of

2010^\circ

. Since

11 \times 180^\circ = 1980^\circ

(which is less than

2010^\circ

), the total sum must be at least

12 \times 180^\circ = 2160^\circ

. Subtracting the given sum of the other angles from this total gives

2160^\circ - 2010^\circ = 150^\circ

. Since

150^\circ

is less than

180^\circ

, this is a mathematically valid remaining angle for a convex polygon.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the inequality for the sum of the interior angles.

The total sum

S = (n-2) \times 180^\circ

must satisfy

2010^\circ < S < 2010^\circ + 180^\circ

, which simplifies to

2010^\circ < S < 2190^\circ

.

Since the polygon is convex, the remaining interior angle must have a measure strictly between

0^\circ

and

180^\circ

.

2

Determine the value of

n-2

by finding the unique integer multiple.

Dividing the inequality by

180^\circ

gives

11.17 < n-2 < 12.17

n

must be an integer,

n-2 = 12

The number of sides of a polygon must be a whole number, so

n-2

must be an integer.

A convex polygon has $n$ sides. The sum of the measures of all but one of its interior angles is $2020^\circ$ . What is the measure, in degrees, of the remaining interior angle?

Cevap: 140

Cevap

The measure of the remaining interior angle is

140^\circ

.

For a convex polygon with

n

sides, the sum of all interior angles is

(n-2) \times 180^\circ

. If we represent the remaining interior angle as

x

, then the sum of all interior angles can be written as

2020^\circ + x

. Because the polygon is convex, the measure of the remaining interior angle must satisfy the inequality

0^\circ < x < 180^\circ

. Substituting this into the sum expression gives the inequality

2020^\circ < (n-2) \times 180^\circ < 2200^\circ

. Dividing by

180^\circ

, we find

11.22 < n-2 < 12.22

. Since

n-2

must be an integer,

n-2

must equal

12

, which means the total sum of the interior angles is

12 \times 180^\circ = 2160^\circ

. The remaining angle is found by subtracting

2020^\circ

2160^\circ

Set up an equation containing the sum of all but one angle (

(n-2) \times 180^\circ = 2020^\circ + x

The total sum of all interior angles is equal to the sum of the

3

Apply the convexity constraint

0^\circ < x < 180^\circ

to construct an inequality for the total sum of the interior angles.

2020^\circ < (n-2) \times 180^\circ < 2200^\circ

Since the remaining angle must be strictly between

0^\circ

and

180^\circ

for a convex polygon, adding

2020^\circ

gives the boundaries for the total sum.

4

Divide the inequality by

180^\circ

11.22 < n-2 < 12.22

This determines the numerical boundaries for the integer value of

The

.

By using the geometric properties of a rhombus, we know that its diagonals bisect each other perpendicularly. The midpoint of diagonal

AC

is calculated as

M(4, 6)

and its length is

10

. Consequently, the perpendicular diagonal

BD

must pass through

M(4, 6)

with a slope of

-\frac{3}{4}

(the negative reciprocal of the slope of

AC

, which is

\frac{4}{3}

). Since the length of

BD

is half the length of

AC

, the length of

BD

is

5

, meaning vertices

B

and

D

are each a distance of

2.5

units away from

M(4, 6)

y - 6 = -0.75(x - 4)

(6, 4.5)

and

(2, 7.5)

. The condition that the

x

-coordinate of

B

is greater than the

x

-coordinate of

D

uniquely determines

B

to be

(6, 4.5)

, yielding a

y

4.5

.

1

Calculate the midpoint

M

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at their midpoint and their lengths determine the proportions of the shape.

2

Find the slope and length of diagonal

BD

.

Slope of

BD

is

-\frac{3}{4}

, and length is

5

.

Diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular, meaning their slopes are negative reciprocals (

m_1 \cdot m_2 = -1

BD

is half of

AC

(

Set up equations to find coordinates of

B(x, y)

and

D(x, y)

2.5

from

M(4, 6)

along the line of diagonal

BD

.

(x - 4)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 6.25

and

y - 6 = -0.75(x - 4)

.

Since the diagonals bisect each other, the distance from the midpoint

M

to each of the remaining vertices

B

and

D

is half the length of diagonal

BD

(

5 \div 2 = 2.5

).

4

Solve the system of equations for the coordinates.

P_1(6, 4.5)

and

P_2(2, 7.5)

.

Substituting

y-6

into the distance equation yields

(x-4)^2 + 0.5625(x-4)^2 = 6.25

, which simplifies to

1.5625(x-4)^2 = 6.25 \implies (x-4)^2 = 4 \implies x - 4 = \pm 2

. Thus,

x_1 = 6

(giving

y_1 = 4.5

) and

x_2 = 2

(giving

y_2 = 7.5

).

5

Identify vertex

B

using the given coordinate condition.

B = (6, 4.5)

, so the

y

-coordinate is

4.5

The problem states that the

x

-coordinate of

B

is greater than the

x

-coordinate of

D

. Comparing the two solutions, the one with the larger

x

6 > 2

) must belong to vertex

B
