9 diagonals

The total sum of interior angles of an

n

-sided polygon is

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

. Setting this equal to

3(90^\circ) + (n - 3)(150^\circ)

simplifies to

180n - 360 = 150n - 180

, which solves to

n = 6

. Substituting

n = 6

into the diagonal formula

D = \frac{n(n - 3)}{2}

yields

\frac{6 \times 3}{2} = 9

diagonals.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Formulate the interior angle sum equation for the

n

-sided convex polygon.

The total interior angle sum is

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

. Summing the individual angles gives

3 \times 90^\circ + (n - 3) \times 150^\circ

. Thus:

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ = 270^\circ + (n - 3) \times 150^\circ

.

The sum of all interior angles of any

n

-sided polygon is given by

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

.

2

Solve the equation for the number of sides

n

.

180n - 360 = 270 + 150n - 450 \implies 180n - 360 = 150n - 180 \implies 30n = 180 \implies n = 6

.

Expanding terms and isolating

n

reveals that the polygon has 6 sides (a hexagon).

3

Calculate the total number of diagonals using the formula

D = \frac{n(n - 3)}{2}

.

D = \frac{6(6 - 3)}{2} = \frac{6 \times 3}{2} = 9

.

Each of the

n

vertices can connect to

n - 3

non-adjacent vertices, and dividing by 2 avoids double-counting each diagonal line segment.

A point $P(x, y)$ moves in a Cartesian plane such that the sum of the squares of its distances from two fixed points $A(0, 0)$ and $B(8, 0)$ is equal to $82$ , defining a locus $L_1$ . A second locus $L_2$ is the set of all points equidistant from the parallel lines $y = -1$ and $y = 7$ . Given that $L_1$ and $L_2$ intersect at two distinct points $M$ and $N$ , what is the length of the line segment $MN$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The length of the line segment

MN

is 8 units.

The locus

L_1

simplifies to the circle

(x - 4)^2 + y^2 = 25

with center

(4,0)

and radius

5

. The locus

L_2

is the horizontal line

y = 3

. Substituting

y = 3

into the circle equation yields

(x - 4)^2 = 16

, giving intersection points at

(0,3)

and

(8,3)

. The distance between these points is

8

units.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Formulate the algebraic expression for locus

L_1

The distance squared

PA^2 = x^2 + y^2

and

PB^2 = (x - 8)^2 + y^2

. Setting

PA^2 + PB^2 = 82

gives

x^2 + y^2 + (x - 8)^2 + y^2 = 82

.

By the distance formula, the sum of squared distances from

P(x, y)

to

A(0,0)

and

B(8,0)

equals 82.

2

Simplify and complete the square for locus

L_1

Expanding yields

2x^2 - 16x + 64 + 2y^2 = 82 \implies 2x^2 - 16x + 2y^2 = 18 \implies x^2 - 8x + y^2 = 9

. Completing the square gives

(x - 4)^2 + y^2 = 25

.

This shows

L_1

is a circle with center

(4, 0)

and radius

R = 5

.

3

Find the equation for locus

L_2

The locus of points equidistant from two parallel lines

y = -1

and

y = 7

is the line

y = \frac{-1 + 7}{2} = 3

.

The locus equidistant from two parallel lines is a parallel line running midway between them.

4

Find the intersection points

M

and

N

Substitute

y = 3

into

(x - 4)^2 + y^2 = 25

:

(x - 4)^2 + 3^2 = 25 \implies (x - 4)^2 = 16 \implies x - 4 = \pm 4

, so

x = 8

or

x = 0

. Thus,

M = (0, 3)

and

N = (8, 3)

.

Solving the circle and line equations simultaneously gives the

x

-coordinates of the intersection points.

5

Compute the distance between

M

and

N

Since both points share the ordinate

y = 3

, distance

MN = 8 - 0 = 8

.

The length of a horizontal segment is the difference between its endpoints'

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The distance between the two points of intersection of locus L1 and locus L2 is 6 units.

Locus L1 is the line midway between the two given parallel lines, having the equation 3x - 4y + 5 = 0. Locus L2 is a circle centered at (1, 7) with radius 5. The perpendicular distance from the center (1, 7) to line L1 is 4 units. Applying Pythagoras' theorem to the right triangle formed by the radius, perpendicular distance, and half-chord gives a half-chord length of sqrt(5^2 - 4^2) = 3. Therefore, the distance between the two intersection points (the full chord length) is 2 * 3 = 6 units.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the equation of locus L1

3x - 4y + 5 = 0

The locus of points equidistant from two parallel lines ax + by + c1 = 0 and ax + by + c2 = 0 is a line parallel to both and midway between them, given by ax + by + (c1 + c2)/2 = 0.

2

Identify the geometric representation of locus L2

A circle centered at (1, 7) with radius r = 5

The locus of points at a constant distance r from a fixed point (x0, y0) is a circle.

3

Calculate the perpendicular distance d from the circle's center (1, 7) to line L1

d = 4 units

Using the perpendicular distance formula d = |ax0 + by0 + c| / sqrt(a^2 + b^2), we get d = |3(1) - 4(7) + 5| / sqrt(3^2 + (-4)^2) = |-20| / 5 = 4.

4

Compute the total distance between the two intersection points

6 units

The line intersects the circle along a chord. Using Pythagoras' theorem, half the chord length is sqrt(r^2 - d^2) = sqrt(5^2 - 4^2) = 3. Multiplying by 2 gives the full distance of 6 units.

Cevap: $145^\circ$

Cevap

145^\circ

The sum of all exterior angles of a convex polygon is

360^\circ

. Summing the given expressions yields

8x + 40 = 360^\circ

, which gives

x = 40^\circ

. Evaluating each exterior angle shows that the smallest exterior angle is

(40 - 5)^\circ = 35^\circ

. Since interior and exterior angles on a straight line are supplementary, the largest interior angle is

180^\circ - 35^\circ = 145^\circ

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up equation using the sum of exterior angles

x + (x + 10) + (2x - 5) + (x + 25) + (2x + 15) + (x - 5) = 360^\circ

The sum of the exterior angles of any convex polygon is always

360^\circ

.

2

Simplify and solve for

x

8x + 40 = 360 \implies 8x = 320 \implies x = 40^\circ

Combining like terms gives

8x + 40 = 360

.

3

Find the smallest exterior angle

x - 5 = 40 - 5 = 35^\circ

The largest interior angle corresponds to the smallest exterior angle because an interior angle and its adjacent exterior angle add up to

180^\circ

.

4

Calculate the largest interior angle

180^\circ - 35^\circ = 145^\circ

Subtracting the smallest exterior angle from

180^\circ

yields the largest interior angle.

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The exact value of

\tan \theta + \cot \theta

is 4.

By squaring both sides of

\sin \theta + \cos \theta = \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}

, we obtain

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

. Applying the Pythagorean identity

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1

simplifies this to

1 + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{3}{2}

, which yields

\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

. Since

\tan \theta + \cot \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}

, the exact value is

\frac{1}{1/4} = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Square both sides of the given equation

\sin \theta + \cos \theta = \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}

.

(\sin \theta + \cos \theta)^2 = \left(\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}\right)^2 \implies \sin^2 \theta + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta + \cos^2 \theta = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

.

Squaring allows the application of the fundamental Pythagorean identity

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1

to isolate the product

\sin \theta \cos \theta

.

2

Substitute

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1

into the equation and solve for

\sin \theta \cos \theta

.

1 + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{3}{2} \implies 2\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{2} \implies \sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

.

Simplifying the algebraic equation isolates the product term.

3

Express

\tan \theta + \cot \theta

in terms of

\sin \theta

and

\cos \theta

.

\tan \theta + \cot \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}

.

Using basic trigonometric identities simplifies the target sum into a reciprocal product.

4

Substitute

\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

into the simplified expression.

\tan \theta + \cot \theta = \frac{1}{1/4} = 4

The total surface area of a closed cylinder is

A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h

. Given

A = 192\pi

and

h = 10\text{ cm}

, we have

2\pi r^2 + 20\pi r = 192\pi

. Dividing by

r^2 + 10r - 96 = 0

. Factoring the quadratic gives

(r + 16)(r - 6) = 0

, so

r = 6\text{ cm}

(since radius must be positive). Substituting

r = 6\text{ cm}

and

h = 10\text{ cm}

into the volume formula

V = \pi r^2 h

Two parallel lines, $L_1$ and $L_2$ , are situated in a plane with $L_1$ above $L_2$ . A regular polygon of $n$ sides has one of its sides, $AB$ , lying entirely on line $L_1$ . An adjacent side, $BC$ , extends downwards into the region between $L_1$ and $L_2$ . A line segment $BD$ is drawn from vertex $B$ perpendicular to line $L_2$ , meeting $L_2$ at point $D$ . The segment $BD$ lies inside the interior angle $\angle ABC$ of the polygon and divides $\angle ABC$ into two angles, $\angle ABD$ and $\angle DBC$ , such that $\angle ABD : \angle DBC = 3 : 2$ . What is the total number of diagonals of this regular polygon?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 54

Cevap

54

Because line L_1 is parallel to line L_2 and BD is perpendicular to L_2, BD is also perpendicular to L_1, making angle ABD equal to 90°. Based on the 3:2 ratio, angle DBC equals 60°, giving a total interior angle of 150°. Solving (n - 2) × 180° / n = 150° yields n = 12 sides. Substituting n = 12 into the diagonal formula n(n - 3) / 2 gives 54 diagonals.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the measure of angle ABD using parallel line properties

\angle ABD = 90^\circ

Because line L_1 is parallel to line L_2 and line segment BD is perpendicular to L_2, BD is also perpendicular to L_1.

2

Calculate the measure of angle DBC from the given angle ratio

\angle DBC = 60^\circ

With \angle ABD : \angle DBC = 3 : 2 and \angle ABD = 90^\circ, setting 3 ratio units equal to 90^\circ gives 1 unit = 30^\circ, so 2 units = 60^\circ.

3

Find the total interior angle measure of the regular polygon

\angle ABC = 150^\circ

The interior angle \angle ABC is the sum of \angle ABD and \angle DBC, which gives 90^\circ + 60^\circ = 150^\circ.

4

Determine the number of sides n of the regular polygon

n = 12

Using the regular polygon interior angle formula \frac{(n - 2) \times 180^\circ}{n} = 150^\circ, solving for n yields 180n - 360 = 150n \implies 30n = 360 \implies n = 12.

5

Calculate the total number of diagonals

54

Applying the polygon diagonal formula D = \frac{n(n - 3)}{2} with n = 12 gives D = \frac{12 \times (12 - 3)}{2} = \frac{12 \times 9}{2} = 54.

A point $P(x, y)$ moves in the Cartesian plane such that its distance from the origin $O(0, 0)$ is always half of its distance from the fixed point $Q(6, 0)$ . Which of the following equations represents the locus of $P$ ?

x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 12 = 0

x^2 + y^2 + 12x - 36 = 0

x^2 + y^2 - 16x + 48 = 0

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 12 = 0$

Cevap

The equation of the locus of

P

is

x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

.

The correct equation

x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

is derived by expressing the condition

PO = \frac{1}{2} PQ

as

2 \cdot PO = PQ

, squaring both sides to get

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

, and simplifying to standard circle form.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the distance condition algebraically.

The distance from

P(x,y)

to

O(0,0)

is

PO = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}

, and the distance from

P(x,y)

to

Q(6,0)

is

PQ = \sqrt{(x-6)^2 + y^2}

. Given

PO = \frac{1}{2} PQ

, we have

2 \cdot PO = PQ

.

Translate the geometric distance description into algebraic expressions.

2

Square both sides of the equation to eliminate square roots.

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

.

Squaring removes the radicals; note that

(2 \cdot PO)^2 = 4 \cdot PO^2

.

3

Expand and group like terms.

4x^2 + 4y^2 = x^2 - 12x + 36 + y^2 \implies 3x^2 + 12x + 3y^2 - 36 = 0

.

Expand

(x - 6)^2 = x^2 - 12x + 36

and collect terms on one side.

4

Divide the entire equation by 3 to standard form.

x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

.

Simplifying by the common factor of 3 gives the equation of a circle representing the Circle of Apollonius.

Given that $\tan \theta + \cot \theta = 4$ for an acute angle $\theta$ , what is the exact decimal value of $\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.875

Cevap

The exact decimal value of

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta

is 0.875.

By writing

\tan \theta + \cot \theta

as

\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = 4

, we find that

\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

. Squaring the fundamental identity

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1

gives

\sin^4 \theta + 2\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta + \cos^4 \theta = 1

. Isolating

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta

yields

1 - 2(\sin \theta \cos \theta)^2 = 1 - 2\left(\frac{1}{16}\right) = 1 - \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{8} = 0.875

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Rewrite the expression

\tan \theta + \cot \theta = 4

using sine and cosine ratios

\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = 4

Applies the fundamental quotient identities for tangent and cotangent.

2

Combine fractions over a common denominator and apply the Pythagorean identity

\frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = 4 \implies \sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

Utilizes the identity

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1

.

3

Relate

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta

to

(\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta)^2

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta = (\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta)^2 - 2\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta = 1 - 2(\sin \theta \cos \theta)^2

Uses the algebraic identity

a^2 + b^2 = (a+b)^2 - 2ab

where

a = \sin^2 \theta

and

b = \cos^2 \theta

.

4

Substitute

\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

into the algebraic relation

1 - 2\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^2 = 1 - 2\left(\frac{1}{16}\right) = 1 - \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{8} = 0.875

Evaluates the expression to obtain the final decimal result.

Cevap

The length of side

b

is

10\sqrt{2}\text{ cm}

.

The option specifying

10\sqrt{2}\text{ cm}

is correct because applying the Sine Rule gives

\frac{10}{\sin 30^\circ} = \frac{b}{\sin 45^\circ}

, which simplifies directly to

b = 10\sqrt{2}\text{ cm}

.

a

,

b

and their opposite angles

A

,

B

.

\frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B}

2

Substitute the known values (

a = 10

,

A = 30^\circ

,

B = 45^\circ

) into the formula.

\frac{10}{\sin 30^\circ} = \frac{b}{\sin 45^\circ}

Isolating the variable

b

requires substituting given numeric angle and side measures.

3

Evaluate exact values of trigonometric functions and solve for

b

A solid right circular cylinder of radius $5\text{ cm}$ and height $12\text{ cm}$ has a conical cavity of the same radius and height hollowed out from its top face. What is the total surface area of the remaining solid in $\text{cm}^2$ , expressed as a multiple of $\pi$ (that is, find the value of $K$ where the total surface area is $K\pi\text{ cm}^2$ )?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 210

Cevap

The total surface area of the remaining solid is

210\pi\text{ cm}^2

, so the required numerical coefficient

K

is

210

.

The total surface area consists of three parts: the flat circular base at the bottom (

25\pi\text{ cm}^2

), the outer curved surface of the cylinder (

120\pi\text{ cm}^2

), and the newly created inner curved surface of the conical cavity (

65\pi\text{ cm}^2

). Adding these together yields

25\pi + 120\pi + 65\pi = 210\pi\text{ cm}^2

, giving the coefficient

K = 210

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the slant height (

l

) of the conical cavity.

l = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = \sqrt{169} = 13\text{ cm}

.

The slant height forms the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose leg lengths are the base radius and the vertical height of the cone.

2

Determine the area of all exposed boundary surfaces of the remaining solid.

Flat bottom base area

= \pi(5)^2 = 25\pi\text{ cm}^2

; Outer curved cylindrical surface area

= 2\pi(5)(12) = 120\pi\text{ cm}^2

; Inner curved conical surface area

= \pi(5)(13) = 65\pi\text{ cm}^2

.

Hollowing out the cone creates an internal curved boundary while leaving the outer cylindrical boundary and the flat bottom base exposed.

3

Sum the areas of all exposed surfaces to calculate the total surface area.

Total Surface Area

= 25\pi + 120\pi + 65\pi = 210\pi\text{ cm}^2

.

The total surface area is the sum of all external and internal exposed surface areas.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\frac{5}{2}$

Cevap

The exact value of

2\sin \theta + \sqrt{3}\cos \theta

is

\frac{5}{2}

.

Cross-multiplying the equation

\frac{1 - \tan \theta}{1 + \tan \theta} = 2 - \sqrt{3}

yields

\tan \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

, which identifies

\theta

as

30^\circ

. Evaluating

2\sin 30^\circ + \sqrt{3}\cos 30^\circ = 2\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) + \sqrt{3}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) = 1 + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Solve the given equation

\frac{1 - \tan \theta}{1 + \tan \theta} = 2 - \sqrt{3}

for

\tan \theta

.

1 - \tan \theta = (2 - \sqrt{3})(1 + \tan \theta) \implies 1 - \tan \theta = 2 - \sqrt{3} + (2 - \sqrt{3})\tan \theta

. Rearranging terms gives

(\sqrt{3} - 1) = (3 - \sqrt{3})\tan \theta \implies \tan \theta = \frac{\sqrt{3} - 1}{3 - \sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sqrt{3} - 1}{\sqrt{3}(\sqrt{3} - 1)} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

.

Isolating

\tan \theta

allows determination of the specific angle

\theta

.

2

Determine the acute angle

\theta

corresponding to

\tan \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

.

Since

\theta

is acute and

\tan 30^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

,

\theta = 30^\circ

.

Special angle identities state that

\tan 30^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

.

3

Evaluate the target trigonometric expression

2\sin \theta + \sqrt{3}\cos \theta

at

\theta = 30^\circ

.

2\sin 30^\circ + \sqrt{3}\cos 30^\circ = 2\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) + \sqrt{3}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) = 1 + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

.

Substituting the exact surd values

\sin 30^\circ = \frac{1}{2}

and

\cos 30^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

simplifies directly to the final fraction.
