Cevap: 15

Cevap

The length of segment

PS

is 15.

According to the Triangle Proportionality Theorem, if a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then it divides the two sides proportionally. Therefore, we can write the proportion as

\frac{PS}{SQ} = \frac{PT}{TR}

. Substituting the given values yields

\frac{2x - 1}{3} = \frac{x + 2}{2}

. Cross-multiplying gives

2(2x - 1) = 3(x + 2)

, which simplifies to

4x - 2 = 3x + 6

. Subtracting

3x

and adding

2

to both sides results in

x = 8

. Substituting

x = 8

back into the expression for

PS

gives

2(8) - 1 = 15

. Thus, the length of segment

PS

is 15.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up a proportion using the Triangle Proportionality Theorem.

\frac{PS}{SQ} = \frac{PT}{TR}

Since segment

ST

is parallel to side

QR

, it divides the sides of triangle

PQR

proportionally.

2

Substitute the given algebraic expressions into the proportion.

\frac{2x - 1}{3} = \frac{x + 2}{2}

This establishes a solvable equation for

x

based on the geometric relationship.

3

Cross-multiply and solve for

x

.

2(2x - 1) = 3(x + 2) \implies 4x - 2 = 3x + 6 \implies x = 8

Cross-multiplication removes the denominators, allowing us to isolate the variable

x

.

4

Calculate the length of segment

PS

using the value of

x

.

PS = 2(8) - 1 = 15

The question asks for the length of segment

PS

, so we must evaluate the expression

2x - 1

at

x = 8

.

Cevap: $32\pi$

Cevap

The area of the circular tabletop is

32\pi

square inches.

The correct answer is

32\pi

because the inscribed square has a side length of

8

inches. The diagonal of the square serves as the diameter of the circle, which is

8\sqrt{2}

inches. The radius is therefore

4\sqrt{2}

inches, and the area of the circle is

\pi (4\sqrt{2})^2 = 32\pi

square inches.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the side length of the inscribed square from its area.

The side length of the square is

8

inches.

The area of a square is given by

s^2

, where

s

is the side length. Since the area is

64

, we solve

s^2 = 64

to find

s = 8

.

2

Find the length of the diagonal of the square, which represents the diameter of the circle.

The diagonal length is

8\sqrt{2}

inches.

In a square with side length

s

, the diagonal is

s\sqrt{2}

. Since the square is inscribed in the circle, the diagonal of the square is equal to the diameter of the circle.

3

Calculate the radius of the circle and then the area.

The radius is

4\sqrt{2}

inches and the area is

32\pi

square inches.

The radius

r

is half of the diameter, so

r = \frac{8\sqrt{2}}{2} = 4\sqrt{2}

. The area of the circle is given by

A = \pi r^2 = \pi (4\sqrt{2})^2 = 32\pi

.

Angle $A$ has a measure of $d$ degrees, and angle $B$ has a measure of $r$ radians. The sum of the degree measure of angle $A$ and the degree equivalent of the measure of angle $B$ is $180$ . If the measure of angle $A$ , in degrees, is $3$ times the degree equivalent of the measure of angle $B$ , and $r = k\pi$ , what is the value of $k$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.25

Cevap

The value of

k

is

0.25

(or

\frac{1}{4}

).

The correct answer is

0.25

(or

\frac{1}{4}

). To find this, we solve the system of equations representing the degree relationship:

d + D_B = 180

and

d = 3D_B

, where

D_B

is the degree equivalent of angle

B

. This gives

D_B = 45

. Converting

45^\circ

to radians by multiplying by

\frac{\pi}{180}

gives

\frac{\pi}{4}

radians, which means the coefficient

k

is

0.25

.

1

Set up a system of equations using the given information.

d + D_B = 180

and

d = 3D_B

, where

d

is the degree measure of angle

A

and

D_B

is the degree equivalent of angle

To translate the verbal descriptions of the relationships between the angle measures into mathematical equations.

2

Solve the system of equations for

D_B

.

D_B = 45

Substituting

d = 3D_B

into the first equation yields

3D_B + D_B = 180

, which simplifies to

4D_B = 180

. Dividing both sides by

4

gives

D_B = 45

.

3

Convert the degree measure of angle

B

to radians.

r = \frac{\pi}{4}

radians

To convert degrees to radians, multiply the degree measure by

\frac{\pi}{180}

. This gives

45 \times \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{\pi}{4}

.

4

Find the value of

k

from the expression

r = k\pi

.

k = 0.25

(or

\frac{1}{4}

)

Since

r = \frac{\pi}{4} = 0.25\pi

, comparing this to

r = k\pi

shows that

The correct answer is 30.0. By finding the distance from the origin to the point of tangency

T(3.6, 4.8)

6

. Since the tangent line is perpendicular to this radius, we can determine its equation to be

y = -0.75x + 7.5

. The intercepts are

P(10,0)

and

Q(0,7.5)

, representing the legs of right triangle

OPQ

. Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse is

PQ = \sqrt{10^2 + 7.5^2} = 12.5

1

Find the radius of the circle, which is the segment

OT

from the origin

O(0,0)

to the point of tangency

T(3.6, 4.8)

.

The radius

OT = \sqrt{3.6^2 + 4.8^2} = \sqrt{12.96 + 23.04} = \sqrt{36} = 6

.

Since the line is tangent to the circle at

T

, the radius

OT

is perpendicular to the tangent line at

T

.

2

Find the equation of the tangent line. The slope of the radius

OT

is

\frac{4.8}{3.6} = \frac{4}{3}

.

The slope of the tangent line is the negative reciprocal,

-\frac{3}{4}

. Using the point-slope form with

T(3.6, 4.8)

, the equation is

y - 4.8 = -\frac{3}{4}(x - 3.6)

, which simplifies to

y = -0.75x + 7.5

.

The tangent line is perpendicular to the radius at the point of tangency.

Calculate the lengths of the legs of the right triangle

OPQ

by finding the

x

- and

y

-intercepts of the tangent line.

Setting

y = 0

gives the

, so

OP = 10

. Setting

x = 0

gives the

y

The vertices

P

OQ

are the legs of right triangle

OPQ

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse

PQ

, and then calculate the perimeter.

PQ = \sqrt{10^2 + 7.5^2} = \sqrt{100 + 56.25} = \sqrt{156.25} = 12.5

. The perimeter of triangle

OPQ

is

OP + OQ + PQ = 10 + 7.5 + 12.5 = 30

ABCD

. The area of square

ABCD

is

12^2 = 144

\text{Area}(\triangle EBC) = \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 12 = 18

, and

\text{Area}(\triangle FDC) = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 12 = 36

. Subtracting these from the total area of the square yields

\text{Area}(\triangle CEF) = 144 - (27 + 18 + 36) = 144 - 81 = 63

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the lengths of the segments created by points

E

and

F

on the sides of the square.

Since the square has a side length of

12

, the length of side

AB

is

12

. Given that

AE = 3BE

and

AE + BE = 12

, we can write

3BE + BE = 12 \implies 4BE = 12 \implies BE = 3

. This gives

AE = 9

. Since

F

is the midpoint of

AD

(

AF = FD

), we have

AF = FD = \frac{12}{2} = 6

.

Finding these segment lengths is necessary to compute the base and height of the right triangles at the corners of the square.

Calculate the areas of the three right triangles surrounding triangle

CEF

The area of right triangle

AEF

is

\frac{1}{2} \times AE \times AF = \frac{1}{2} \times 9 \times 6 = 27

. The area of right triangle

EBC

is

\frac{1}{2} \times BE \times BC = \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 12 = 18

. The area of right triangle

FDC

is

\frac{1}{2} \times FD \times CD = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 12 = 36

These three triangles occupy the entire area of the square except for the region defined by triangle

CEF

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $285^\circ$

Cevap

The value of

\theta

could be

285^\circ

.

To find the value of

\theta

, we first convert the counterclockwise rotation of

\frac{7\pi}{6}

radians into degrees. Multiplying

\frac{7\pi}{6}

by

\frac{180}{\pi}

yields

210^\circ

. A counterclockwise rotation increases the angle measure, so we add

210^\circ

. A clockwise rotation decreases the angle measure, so we subtract

45^\circ

. The resulting angle is

\theta + 210^\circ - 45^\circ = \theta + 165^\circ

. Since the terminal ray of the resulting angle lies on the positive

y

-axis, it is coterminal with

90^\circ

. Setting

\theta + 165^\circ = 90^\circ + 360^\circ k

for an integer

k

gives

\theta = -75^\circ + 360^\circ k

. For

k = 1

, we get

\theta = 285^\circ

, which is the correct value.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the counterclockwise rotation from radians to degrees.

\frac{7\pi}{6} \times \frac{180}{\pi} = 210^\circ

To work with degrees consistently, we convert the radian measure of the rotation using the conversion factor

\frac{180}{\pi}

.

2

Set up the equation for the final angle position using the directions of rotation.

Final angle =

\theta + 210^\circ - 45^\circ = \theta + 165^\circ

Counterclockwise rotations are positive (added to

\theta

) and clockwise rotations are negative (subtracted from the result).

3

Relate the final angle to the positive

y

-axis and solve for

\theta

.

\theta + 165^\circ = 90^\circ + 360^\circ k \implies \theta = -75^\circ + 360^\circ k

. For

k = 1

,

\theta = 285^\circ

.

The positive

y

-axis corresponds to

90^\circ

in standard position. Solving for

\theta

and adding multiples of

360^\circ

yields the possible measures of the starting angle.

m = \frac{7}{24}

after squaring and solving for

m

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Complete the square for the circle's equation to find the center and radius.

The given equation

x^2 + y^2 - 6x - 8y + 16 = 0

can be rewritten as

(x-3)^2 - 9 + (y-4)^2 - 16 + 16 = 0

, which simplifies to

(x-3)^2 + (y-4)^2 = 9

. Thus, the circle has center

(3, 4)

and radius

r = \sqrt{9} = 3

.

Converting the general form equation of a circle to standard form is necessary to find the coordinates of its center and its radius.

2

Set up the equation for the distance from the center of the circle to the tangent line.

The line is given by

y = mx

, which can be written in standard form as

mx - y = 0

. The perpendicular distance from the center

(3, 4)

to this line must equal the circle's radius

3

. Using the point-to-line distance formula:

\frac{|m(3) - (4)|}{\sqrt{m^2 + (-1)^2}} = 3

.

A line is tangent to a circle if and only if the perpendicular distance from the center of the circle to the line is equal to the radius.

3

Solve the distance equation for the constant

m

.

|3m - 4| = 3\sqrt{m^2 + 1}

. Squaring both sides gives

(3m - 4)^2 = 9(m^2 + 1) \Rightarrow 9m^2 - 24m + 16 = 9m^2 + 9

. Subtracting

9m^2

from both sides gives

-24m + 16 = 9 \Rightarrow 24m = 7 \Rightarrow m = \frac{7}{24}

.

Squaring both sides eliminates the absolute value and the radical, allowing us to isolate and solve for

m

algebraically.

The correct answer is 225. Dividing the given equation

3x^2 + 3y^2 - 24x + 18y - c = 0

by 3 gives

x^2 + y^2 - 8x + 6y - \frac{c}{3} = 0

. Completing the square for the

and for the

. The standard equation of a circle is

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

, where

r

is the radius. Since the area of the circle is

100\pi

and the area formula is

A = \pi r^2

, the radius squared

r^2

must equal 100. Setting the right-hand side of our standard form equation equal to 100 gives

\frac{c}{3} + 25 = 100

. Solving for

c

yields

\frac{c}{3} = 75

1

Divide the entire equation by the coefficient of the squared terms to normalize it.

x^2 + y^2 - 8x + 6y - \frac{c}{3} = 0

The standard form of a circle's equation requires the coefficients of

2

Complete the square for both the

x

(x^2 - 8x + 16) + (y^2 + 6y + 9) = \frac{c}{3} + 16 + 9

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

Completing the square converts the general equation of a circle into the standard form

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

3

Use the given area of the circle to determine the radius squared,

r^2

.

r^2 = 100

The area of a circle is defined by

A = \pi r^2

, we have

\pi r^2 = 100\pi

, which means

r^2 = 100

Equate the expression for

r^2

from the standard form to the value found from the area and solve for

c

.

\frac{c}{3} + 25 = 100 \Rightarrow \frac{c}{3} = 75 \Rightarrow c = 225

From the standard form, the right-hand side is equal to

In a circle with center $O$ , the central angle $AOB$ has a measure of $\frac{4\pi}{5}$ radians. Angle $BOC$ is adjacent to angle $AOB$ such that they form a straight line. What is the degree measure of angle $BOC$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 36

Cevap

The degree measure of angle

BOC

is 36.

Angles

AOB

and

BOC

form a straight line, which means they are supplementary and their measures add up to

180^\circ

(or

\pi

radians). Since angle

AOB

measures

\frac{4\pi}{5}

radians, we can convert this measure to degrees first by multiplying by

\frac{180^\circ}{\pi}

:

\frac{4\pi}{5} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = 4 \times 36^\circ = 144^\circ

. To find the degree measure of the supplementary angle

BOC

, subtract

144^\circ

from

180^\circ

, giving

180^\circ - 144^\circ = 36^\circ

. Alternatively, the calculation can be performed in radians first:

\pi - \frac{4\pi}{5} = \frac{\pi}{5}

radians, and then converting

\frac{\pi}{5}

radians to degrees:

\frac{\pi}{5} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = 36^\circ

According to the Triangle Proportionality Theorem, since segment

DE

is parallel to segment

BC

, the sides of triangle

ABC

are divided proportionally:

\frac{AD}{DB} = \frac{AE}{EC}

. Substituting the given expressions, we get

\frac{x+5}{6} = \frac{x-2}{3}

. Multiplying both sides of the equation by 6 gives

x+5 = 2(x-2)

. Distributing the 2 to both terms inside the parentheses yields

x+5 = 2x-4

. Subtracting

x

from both sides gives

5 = x-4

, and adding 4 to both sides gives

x = 9

. The question asks for the length of segment

AE

, which is defined as

x-2

. Substituting

x = 9

into this expression gives

9 - 2 = 7

Identify the relationship between the triangles and set up the proportion.

Since

DE \parallel BC

, triangle

ADE

is similar to triangle

ABC

(

\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ABC

). By the Triangle Proportionality Theorem, this gives the proportion

\frac{AD}{DB} = \frac{AE}{EC}

.

A line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.

In a circle, chords $AB$ and $CD$ intersect perpendicularly at point $E$ . If $AE = 35$ , $EB = 5$ , and $CE = 5$ , what is the length of the diameter of the circle?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 50

Cevap

50

The correct answer is 50. By applying the intersecting chords theorem, the segment

ED

is found to be 35. Since the chords are perpendicular and intersect at point

E

, we can find the distance from the center of the circle to each chord by analyzing the distances from the intersection point to the midpoints of the chords. The midpoints of both chords are 20 units from their endpoints. The distance from

E

to the midpoint of

AB

is

35 - 20 = 15

. This distance is equal to the perpendicular distance from the center of the circle to the other chord,

CD

. Using the Pythagorean theorem with a chord half-length of 20 and a distance from the center of 15, the radius of the circle is

\sqrt{15^2 + 20^2} = 25

. Therefore, the diameter of the circle is

2 \times 25 = 50

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the length of segment

ED

using the intersecting chords theorem.

ED = 35

For any two intersecting chords

AB

and

CD

intersecting at point

E

, the product of the segments of one chord equals the product of the segments of the other:

AE \cdot EB = CE \cdot ED

. Substituting the given values:

35 \cdot 5 = 5 \cdot ED

, which simplifies to

ED = 35

.

2

Calculate the total lengths of chords

AB

and

CD

and determine their midpoints.

Chord lengths

AB = 40

and

CD = 40

. Midpoint distances

MB = 20

and

ND = 20

.

The total length of chord

AB

is

AE + EB = 35 + 5 = 40

. The perpendicular line from the center

O

to

AB

bisects the chord at midpoint

M

, so

MB = 40 / 2 = 20

. Similarly, the total length of chord

CD

is

CE + ED = 5 + 35 = 40

, and its midpoint

N

bisects it, so

ND = 20

.

3

Find the perpendicular distances from the center

O

to the chords

AB

and

CD

.

OM = 15

and

ON = 15

The distance from the intersection point

E

to the midpoint

M

along chord

AB

is

AE - AM = 35 - 20 = 15

. Because the chords are perpendicular, the perpendicular distance from the center

O

to chord

AB

is equal to the distance

EN

along the other chord, so

OM = EN = 15

. Similarly,

ON = EM = 15

.

Calculate the radius of the circle using the Pythagorean theorem.

Radius

R = 25

In the right triangle

OMB

, the hypotenuse is the radius

R = OB

OM = 15

and half the chord length

MB = 20

. By the Pythagorean theorem,

R^2 = OM^2 + MB^2 = 15^2 + 20^2 = 225 + 400 = 625

R = 25

A circular dial on a vintage radio is rotated by $\frac{5\pi}{8}$ radians to tune to a specific station. If the dial is then rotated by an additional $45^\circ$ in the same direction, what is the total angle of rotation, in radians, of the dial?

\frac{3\pi}{4}

\frac{7\pi}{8}

\frac{9\pi}{8}

\frac{\pi}{2}

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\frac{7\pi}{8}$

Cevap

The correct answer is

\frac{7\pi}{8}

radians.

To find the total angle of rotation in radians, the rotation of

45^\circ

must first be converted to radians by multiplying by

\frac{\pi}{180^\circ}

, which yields

\frac{\pi}{4}

radians. Expressed with a common denominator of

8

, this is equivalent to

\frac{2\pi}{8}

radians. Adding this to the initial rotation of

\frac{5\pi}{8}

radians gives a total rotation of

\frac{5\pi}{8} + \frac{2\pi}{8} = \frac{7\pi}{8}

radians.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the additional rotation angle of

45^\circ

into radians.

Since

180^\circ = \pi

radians, the conversion is

45^\circ \times \frac{\pi}{180^\circ} = \frac{\pi}{4}

radians.

To find the total rotation angle in radians, both individual angles must be in the same unit of measure.

2

Add the first rotation angle of

\frac{5\pi}{8}

radians to the converted second rotation angle of

\frac{\pi}{4}

radians.

First, express

\frac{\pi}{4}

with a common denominator of

8

:

\frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{2\pi}{8}

. Then, add the two fractions:

\frac{5\pi}{8} + \frac{2\pi}{8} = \frac{7\pi}{8}

radians.

The total angle of rotation is the sum of the two sequential rotations in the same direction.

A landscape architect is designing a courtyard in the shape of a right trapezoid. The parallel sides of the courtyard have lengths of $24$ yards and $40$ yards. The side perpendicular to the parallel sides has a length of $15$ yards. A straight path is built from the midpoint of the longer parallel side to the vertex of the shorter parallel side that is adjacent to the perpendicular side, dividing the courtyard into two regions. What is the area, in square yards, of the smaller region?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 150

Cevap

The area of the smaller region is 150 square yards.

The straight path divides the right trapezoid into two regions: a right triangle and a quadrilateral. The right triangle has a vertical leg of 15 yards (the height of the trapezoid) and a horizontal leg of 20 yards (half of the longer parallel side of 40 yards). The area of this right triangle is 0.5 * 20 * 15 = 150 square yards. The total area of the trapezoid is 0.5 * (24 + 40) * 15 = 480 square yards, making the area of the quadrilateral region 480 - 150 = 330 square yards. Comparing the two regions, the smaller region has an area of 150 square yards.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the length of the segment from the perpendicular corner to the midpoint of the longer parallel side.

20 yards

The midpoint divides the 40-yard side into two equal parts of 20 yards each.

2

Determine the shape and dimensions of the region containing the perpendicular side.

A right triangle with legs of 15 yards and 20 yards.

Since the path goes from the midpoint of the base to the opposite vertex of the perpendicular height, it forms a right triangle with the height and half of the longer base.

3

Calculate the area of this right triangle.

150 square yards

Using the area formula for a triangle, Area = 0.5 * base * height = 0.5 * 20 * 15 = 150.

4

Calculate the total area of the trapezoid and the area of the remaining region to confirm which is smaller.

Total area is 480 square yards; the other region's area is 330 square yards.

The total area is 0.5 * (24 + 40) * 15 = 480. The other region has an area of 480 - 150 = 330. Comparing 150 and 330, 150 is the smaller area.

To find the value of

k

, we convert the given circle equation into its standard form,

(x - h)^2 + (y - j)^2 = r^2

. Grouping the terms gives

(x^2 - 12x) + (y^2 + 8y) = k

. Completing the square for

x

and

y

gives

(x - 6)^2 - 36 + (y + 4)^2 - 16 = k

, which simplifies to

(x - 6)^2 + (y + 4)^2 = k + 52

. This tells us that the center of the circle is

(6, -4)

and the radius squared is

r^2 = k + 52

. A horizontal line

y = 6

is tangent to the circle, meaning the perpendicular distance from the center

(6, -4)

to the line

y = 6

is equal to the radius. This distance is

|6 - (-4)| = 10

. Therefore, the radius is

10

The diameter of the circle is 12.

Dividing the given equation

2x^2 + 2y^2 - 12x + 16y - 22 = 0

by 2 gives

x^2 + y^2 - 6x + 8y - 11 = 0

. Grouping the

x

and

y

terms and moving the constant to the right side gives

(x^2 - 6x) + (y^2 + 8y) = 11

. To complete the square, add

(\frac{-6}{2})^2 = 9

and

(\frac{8}{2})^2 = 16

to both sides, yielding

(x^2 - 6x + 9) + (y^2 + 8y + 16) = 11 + 9 + 16

, which simplifies to

(x-3)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 36

. Since the standard equation of a circle is

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

, the radius squared

r^2

is 36, which means the radius

r

is 6. The diameter is twice the radius, so

x = 2y

.

4

Write the equation for the total measure of angle

BAC

.

(180^\circ - 2x) + y = 75^\circ

\angle BAD = 180^\circ - 2x

(from the sum of angles in

Solve the system of equations for

y

Substituting

x = 2y

Find the side length of the larger square using the perimeter of the L-shaped region.

The side length of the larger square is

inches.

When a corner square is removed from a larger square, the perimeter remains unchanged because the two cut-out edges going inward have the same lengths as the two outer edges that were removed. Thus, the perimeter of the L-shaped region is equal to

In a circle with center $O$ , the radius is $6$ . Points $A$ and $B$ lie on the circle such that the area of the sector $AOB$ is $12$ . What is the length of the minor arc $AB$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The length of the minor arc

AB

is 4.

The area of a sector with central angle

\theta

in radians is

A = \frac{1}{2}r^2\theta

. Setting

A = 12

and

r = 6

, we get

12 = \frac{1}{2}(6)^2\theta

, which simplifies to

12 = 18\theta

, and thus

\theta = \frac{2}{3}

radians. The length of the arc is

s = r\theta = 6 \left(\frac{2}{3}\right) = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the central angle

\theta

in radians using the sector area formula.

\theta = \frac{2}{3}

The area of a sector is given by

A = \frac{1}{2}r^2\theta

, so substituting

A = 12

and

r = 6

gives

12 = 18\theta

, which yields

\theta = \frac{2}{3}

.

2

Calculate the arc length

s

using the formula

s = r\theta

.

s = 4

Substituting

r = 6

and

\theta = \frac{2}{3}

into the arc length formula gives

s = 6 \left(\frac{2}{3}\right) = 4

.
