Quadrilateral | Maths Grade 9
Quadrilateral - Sub Topics
Understanding quadrilaterals and their classifications is essential for anyone working in fields that involve reasoning and mathematical analysis. From the design of buildings to the development of computer graphics, the significance of quadrilaterals extends across various disciplines. In this chapter, we will go through the parallelogram, square, rectangle, rhombus, trapezium and kite.
Quadrilaterals
A quadrilateral is a polygon with four straight sides and four vertices or corners. The term "quadrilateral" is derived from Latin where "quadri" means "four" and "latus" means "side". In simple terms, it is a four-sided figure enclosed by four straight segments or edges, forming four angles.
There are different types of quadrilaterals. Each quadrilateral has its own distinctive characteristics.
Parallelogram
Definition: A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are both parallel.
Rectangle
Definition: A rectangle is a parallelogram whose opposite sides are equal and all angles are right angles.
Properties: i. Opposite sides are parallel and equal in length. ii. All angles are right angles. iii. Diagonals are equal and bisect each other. iv. Sum of adjacent angles is 180°.
Rhombus
Definition: A rhombus is a parallelogram with adjacent sides equal.
Properties: i. All sides are equal. ii. Opposite sides are parallel. iii. Opposite angles are equal. iv. Diagonals bisect each other and intersect at right angles (Diagonals are not equal and perpendicular to each other). v. Sum of adjacent angles is 180°.
Square
Definition: A square is a special parallelogram with all sides equal and all angles at 90°.
Properties: i. All sides are equal. ii. Opposite sides are parallel. iii. Each angle is a right angle. iv. Diagonals are equal and intersect at right angles (Diagonals are perpendicular to each other). v. Sum of adjacent angles is 180°.
Kite
Definition: A kite is a quadrilateral whose two pairs of adjacent sides are equal.
Properties: i. Adjacent sides are equal in length. ii. The sides opposite each other (opposite sides) are not equal in length. iii. One pair of opposite angles is equal. iv. The diagonals of a kite meet each other at right angles. v. Diagonals bisect the angles of a kite.
Trapezium
Definition: A trapezium is a quadrilateral with only one pair of opposite sides parallel.
Properties: i. A trapezium has a pair of parallel sides known as the bases. The other two sides are not parallel and are called legs and they are typically of different lengths. iii. The angles at the bases (parallel sides) are supplementary (180°). iv. The perpendicular distance between the bases is known as the height or altitude.
Isosceles Trapezium
Definition: An isosceles trapezium is a special trapezium whose one pair of opposite sides is parallel and the non-parallel sides (legs) are equal.
Properties: i. The angles at the bottom (base angles) of this shape are the same. ii. The diagonals are of equal length.
Understanding these shapes and their properties is a crucial part of geometry and various ways to make geometry simpler and more practical

All the shapes we see around us are formed using curves or lines. We can see comers, edges, planes, open curves, and closed curves in our surroundings.
We organize them into line segments, angles, triangles, polygons, and circles. We find that they have different sizes and measures. Let us now try to develop tools to compare their sizes.
NCERT Notes For Class 6 Maths Measuring Line Segments
We have drawn and seen so many line segments. A triangle is made of three, and a quadrilateral of four line segments. A line segment is a fixed portion of a line.
This makes it possible to measure a line segment. This measure of each line segment is a unique number called its "length". We use this idea to compare line segments.
To compare any two line segments, we find a relation between their lengths. This can be done in several ways.
1. Comparison by observation:
By just looking at them can you tell which one is longer?
You can see that \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) is longer.
But you cannot always be sure about your usual judgment.
For example, look at the adjoining segments:
The difference in lengths between these two may not be obvious. This makes other ways of comparing necessary.
In this adjacent figure, \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}} \text { and } \overline{\mathrm{PQ}}\) have the same lengths. This is not quite obvious.
So, we need better methods of comparing line A segments.
2. comparison by tracing
To compare \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}} \text { and } \overline{\mathrm{CD}}\), we use a tracing paper, trace \(\overline{\mathrm{CD}}\), and place the traced segment on AB.
Can you decide now which one among \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}} \text { and } \overline{\mathrm{CD}}\), is longer?
The method depends upon the accuracy of tracing the line segment. Moreover, if you want to compare with another length, you have to trace another line segment.
This is difficult and you cannot trace the lengths every time you want to compare them.
3. Comparison Using Ruler and a Divider
Have you seen or can you recognize all the instruments in your instrument box? Among other things, you have a miler and a divider.
Note how the meter is marked along one of its edges. It is divided into 15 parts. Each of these 15 parts is 1cm in length. Each centimeter is divided into subparts. Each subpart of the division of a cm is 1mm.
How many millimeters make one centimeter? Since 1cm = 10 mm, how will we write 2 cm? 3mm? What do we mean by 7.7 cm?
Place the zero mark of the meter at A.
Read the mark against. This gives the length of \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\). Suppose the length is 5.8 cm, we may write, Length AB = 5.8 cm or more simply as AB = 5.8 cm.
There is room for errors even in this procedure. The thickness of the meter may cause difficulties in reading off the marks on it.
Let us use the divider to measure length.
Open the divider. Place the end point of one of its arms at A and the end point of the second arm at B.
Taking care that the opening ofthe divider is not disturbed, lift the divider and place it on the ruler. Ensure that one endpoint is at the zero mark of the ruler. Now read the mark against the other endpoint.
Angles Right And Straight
You have heard of directions in Geography. We know that China is to the north of India, and Sri Lanka is to the south. We also know that the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. There are four main directions.
They are North (N), South (S), East (E) and West (W). Do you know which direction is opposite to the north? Which direction is opposite to the west? Just recollect what you know already.
We now use this knowledge to learn a few properties about angles. Stand facing north.
Turn clockwise to the east.
We say you have turned through a right angle. Follow this with a 'right-angle-tum', clockwise.
You now face south. If you turn by a right angle in the anti-clockwise direction, which direction will you face? It is east again! (Why?) Study the following positions
From facing north to facing south, you have turned by two right angles. Is not this the same as a single turn by two right angles? The turn from north to east is at a right angle.
The turn from north to south is by two right angles; it is called a straight angle. (NS is a straight line) Stand facing south.
Turn by a straight angle. Which direction do you face now? You face north! To turn from north to south, you took a straight-angle turn, again to turn from south to north.
You took another straight-angle turn in the same direction. Thus, turning by two straight angles you reach your original position.
By how many right, angles should you turn in the same direction to reach your original position? Turning by two straight angles (or four right angles) in the same direction makes a full turn.
This one complete turn is called one revolution. The angle for one revolution is a complete angle. We can see such revolutions on clock faces.
When the hand of a clock moves from one position to another, it turns through an angle.
Suppose the hand of a clock starts at 12 and goes round until it reaches 12 again. Has it not made one revolution? So, how many right angles has it moved? Consider these examples
NCERT Notes For Class 6 Maths Angles Acute Obtuse And Reflex
We saw what we mean by a right angle and a straight angle. However, not all the angles we come across are one of these two kinds.
The angle made by a ladder with the wall (or with the floor) is neither a right angle nor a straight angle.
Are there angles smaller than a right angle? Are there angles greater than a right angle? Have you seen a carpenter's square? It looks like the letter "L" of the English alphabet.
He uses it to check right angles. Let us also make a similar 'tester' for a right angle.
Other Names
1. An angle smaller than a right angle is called an acute angle. These are acute angles
Do you see that each one of them is less than one-fourth of a revolution? Examine them with your RA tester.
2. If an angle is larger than a right angle but less than a straight angle, it is called an obtuse angle. These are obtuse angles.
Do you see that each one of them is greater than one-fourth of a revolution but less than half a revolution? Your RA tester may help to examine.
Identify the obtuse angles in the previous examples too.
3. A reflex angle is larger than a straight angle. It looks like this. (See the angle mark) Were there any reflex angles in the shapes you made earlier? How would you check for them?
Measuring Angles
The improvised 'Right-angle tester' we made is helpful to compare angles with a right angle. We were able to classify the angles as acute, obtuse, or reflex.
But this does not give a precise comparison. It cannot find which one of the two obtuse angles is greater. So in order to be more precise in comparison, we need to 'measure' the angles. We can do it with a 'protractor'.
The measure of angle
We call our measure, 'degree measure'. One complete revolution is divided into 360 equal parts. Each part is a degree. We write 360° to say 'three hundred sixty degrees'.
The Protractor
You can find a readymade protractor in your 'instrument box'. The curved edge is divided into 180 equal parts.
Each part is equal to a 'degree'. The markings start from 0° on the right side and end at 180° on the left side, and vice versa.
Suppose you want to measure an angle ABC.
Place the protractor so that the midpoint (M in the figure) of its
straight edge lies on the vertex B of the angle.
Adjust the protractor so that \(\overline{\mathrm{BC}}\) is along the straight edge ofthe protractor.
There are two 'scales' on the protractor: read that scale which has the 0° mark coinciding with the straight edge (i.e. with ray BC )
The mark shown by \(\overline{\mathrm{BC}}\) on the curved edge gives the degree measure of the angle.
We write m ∠ABC= 40°, or simply ∠ABC= 40°.
NCERT Notes For Class 6 Maths Perpendicular Lines
When two lines intersect and the angle between them is a right angle, then the lines are said to be perpendicular. If a line AB is perpendicular to CD, we write \(A B \perp C D \text {. }\) .
If \(A B \perp C D\), then should we say that \(\mathrm{CD} \perp \mathrm{AB}\) also?
Perpendiculars around us!
You can give plenty of examples from things around you for perpendicular lines (or line segments). The English alphabet T is one. Is there any other alphabet that illustrates perpendicularity?
Consider the edges of a postcard. Are the edges perpendicular?
Let \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) be a line segment. Mark its midpoint as M. Let MN be a line perpendicular to \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) through M.
Does MN divide \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) into two equal parts? MN bisects \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) (that is, divides \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) into two equal parts) and is also perpendicular to \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\).
So we say MN is the perpendicular bisector of \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\). You will learn to construct it later.
Quadrilaterals
A quadrilateral, if you remember, is a polygon that has four sides.
NCERT Notes For Class 6 Maths Polygons
So far you studied polygons of 3 o r4 sides (known as triangles and quadrilaterals respectively). We now try to extend the idea of polygon to figures with more sides. We may classify polygons according to the number of their sides.
image-
You can find many of these shapes in everyday life. Windows, doors, walls, almirahs, blackboards, notebooks are all usually rectanglular in shape. Floor tiles are rectangles. The sturdy nature of a triangle makes it the most useful shape in engineering constructions.

Geometry - Regular and Irregular Polygons
Let's discuss polygons today. While many of the classic shapes – triangles, rectangles, and squares, most notably – count as polygons and their formulas have been burned in our minds since elementary school, some of the less-common (we won't say irregular because that's an important definition as you'll see) polygons require a bit more knowledge and understanding. And I can attest to that personally: some years back, I used to often get confused in the polygon sum-of-the-interior-angles formula if I had to recall it after a gap of some months because I had seen two variations of it:
Sum of interior angles of a polygon = (n – 2)*180
Sum of interior angles of a polygon = (2n – 4)*90
Now, I don't want you to judge me. Of course, in the second formula, 2 has been removed from 180 and multiplied to the first factor. It is quite simple so why would anyone get tricked here, you wonder? The problem was that after a few months, I would somehow remember (2n – 4) and 180. So I was mixing up the two and I wasn't sure of the logic behind this formula. That is until I came across the simple explanation of this formula in our Veritas Prep Geometry book (the one which explains how you can divide every polygon with n sides into (n – 2) triangles and hence get the sum of (n – 2)*180). Now it made perfect sense! I couldn't believe that I had not come across that explanation before and had just learned up (well, tried to!) the formula blindly. So now I ensure that all my students understand every formula that I teach them – that extra level of understanding makes remembering the rule for interior angles in a polygon exponentially easier!
But while remembering the rule can be made much easier (and I am thankful for that!), knowing how and when to apply the formulas for sum of interior angles of a polygon requires some additional understanding. Let's investigate how we can put that formula to good use.
On the GMAT, we are usually given a regular polygon and we need to find the measure of interior angles or the number of sides. But what if we are given an irregular polygon instead, not a regular polygon? Does this formula for the interior angles of a polygon still apply? We wouldn't know if we didn't understand how the formula came into being. But since we know that we obtain the formula by dividing the polygon into (n-2) triangles, we know that the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 irrespective of the kind of triangle. So it doesn't matter whether we're dealing with a regular or irregular polygon: the sum of all interior angles will still be (n-2)*180.
Let's look at a question to see the application of this formula for the sum of the interior angles in an irregular polygon scenario.
Question: The measures of the interior angles in a polygon are consecutive odd integers. The largest angle measures 153 degrees. How many sides does this polygon have?
A) 8
B) 9
C) 10
D) 11
E) 12
Solution:
The interior angles are: 153, 151, 149, 147 … and so on.
Now there are two ways to approach this question – one which is straight forward but uses a good bit of algebra so is time consuming, and another which makes you think but doesn't take much time. You can guess which one we are going to focus on! But before we do that let's take a quick look at the algebraic solution too.
If there are n sides, there are n interior angles. The second largest angle will be 153 – 2*1. The third largest will be 153 – 2*2. The smallest will be 153 – 2*(n-1). This is an arithmetic progression.
But let's figure out a solution without going through this painful calculation, because as you know on the GMAT time matters, and there's usually a shortcut for those who deeply understand these concepts!
Notice that the average of the given angles can be 144 if there are 10 angles.
The average cannot be higher than 144 i.e. 147 since that will give us only 7 sides (153, 151, 149, 147, 145, 143, 141 – the average is 147 is this case). But the regular polygon with interior angle measure of 147 has 11 sides. Similarly, the average cannot be less than 144 i.e. 140 either because that will give us many more sides than the required 9.
Hence, the polygon must have 10 sides.
Answer (C).
Interesting, eh? Well, it will be when you understand method 2 well and can do it intuitively!
Some important takeaways here that you should remember from this post:
1) While an irregular polygon doesn't allow you to determine the measures of each individual interior angle via the (n – 2)*180 formula the way a regular polygon does, you can certainly apply that formula to determine the sum of the interior angles of an irregular polygon. It's just that the angles aren't all congruent, so you can't divide by n to get the individual measures.
2) You can use the (n – 2)*180 formula to find both the sum of the interior angles of an irregular polygon and the average measure of an angle in an irregular polygon (just divide the sum by n).
3) It is helpful to understand why the formula for the sum of the interior angles of a polygon works – you're essentially dividing every n-sided polygon into (n-2) triangles, and each of those triangles has an interior angle sum of 180. (It's also just good standard "whenever you're stuck" practice on any GMAT geometry problem to look for ways to divide regular or irregular shapes into triangles.)
4) Recognize that while you may memorize formulas – like the formula for the sum of the interior angles of a polygon – in terms of "here's the input (e.g. n) and the formula will give you the output (e.g. the sum of the interior angles)," the GMAT loves to ask you to do these problems in reverse. As you saw in the problem above, your job was to solve for n when given some information about the interior angles. This is why understanding these formulas can be so important – the better you understand them, the easier it is to apply them in different directions based on what the question is asking you to do.
In summary, know that the (n – 2)*180 formula for the sum of the interior angles of a polygon applies regardless of whether you're dealing with a regular or irregular polygon, and that while it's a formula that you should have memorized it's also a formula worth understanding. Polygon questions can get tricky because the number of sides and angles can increase dramatically over your standard triangles and quadrilaterals, but the good news is that there's a one-size-fits-all formula that can get you through just about any polygon question – regular or irregular, no matter how large n is – and hopefully now you understand it thoroughly.

Hint: Sum of exterior of a regular polygon = ${360^{^0}}$. Use the equilateral triangle, which has maximum measures and where we know that triangle is the simplest polygon.
Let us consider a polygon with minimum number of side i.e. = $3$ As we know that triangle is simple polygon with number of sides =3 We know that Exterior angles of an equilateral triangle have the maximum measure. And we also know that, Sum of exterior angle of polygon = ${360^{^0}}$$ \to (1)$ Let us consider each exterior angle as $A$ By using $(1)$ we can write $ \Rightarrow $$A + A + A = {360^0}$ $ \Rightarrow 3A = {360^0}$ $ \Rightarrow A = \dfrac{{{{360}^0}}}{3} \\ \Rightarrow A = {120^0} \\ $ Therefore, the maximum exterior angle possible for regular polygon =${120^0}$
Note: Focus on the angle given i.e. exterior or interior angles which includes maximum or minimum value.

Consider a very basic problem about two angles of a triangle are known. This problem sounds like this:
Two angles of a triangle are 53 degrees and 57 degrees. Find it the third corner of the triangle.
In any triangle all three angles. That is why the triangle is called. The value of the two angles of the three we know. Now I ask you a couple questions that will help solve this problem.
The first question. What is the sum of the angles of a triangle? This sacred knowledge of mathematics tease "A theorem on the sum of the angles of a triangle." As if they did not call it a law of nature, its essence does not change. Incidentally, the sum of the angles of a triangle belongs to the category of the mathematical knowledge that is easily stored for a long time, but that you never use not awake in their daily lives. Useless knowledge? No, but people use this knowledge is very limited range of professions, such as surveyors.
Sum of the angles of a triangle
The second question. If you know that the sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees, with the arithmetic yourself cope? Here everything is simple. From the sum of the angles of a triangle 180 degrees subtract two prominent corner and get the value of the third angle of the triangle.
180 - 53 - 57 = 70 degrees
I do not want to show here ready-made solution, but ... First, the calculator have a lot of different buttons and accidentally be confused. In such cases, the scientists disappear satellites of Mars. So a complete solution for monitoring, can not hurt. Just check yourself.
Secondly, this is a very good opportunity to do what we do mathematics is strongly not recommended. We are taught to perform tasks with minimal downtime, and possibly without saving intermediate results. Actually, I did. On the one hand, it is correct. On the other hand, it does not give us the opportunity to understand, but what do we actually do?
Personally, I like to consider solving mathematical problems under the microscope in slow motion. Sometimes the impression is that we observe the focus by illusionist and all the secrets of the focus immediately crawl out. Let's look at the detailed solution of this problem on two well-known corners of the triangle and one unknown. Here's how it looks.
Two angles of a triangle
And so. Someone measured the angles in a triangle is real. The measurements were performed only for the two corners. Man in high school and knows that the third angle can be simply calculated. This is the condition of the problem. Now, a detailed description of the meaning of the decision and the action carried out by us.
1. Write a law that establishes a relationship between the angles of a triangle, in algebraic form. I have already said that in mathematics it is called "A theorem on the sum of the angles of a triangle." The geometric shape of this law is shown in the first picture.
2. Transform the algebraic form of the law on the corners of a triangle to solve our specific problem.
3. Enter this formula in the data from the task ahead of us. Pass from the algebraic form to the physical.
4.Analiziruem physical model for solving the problem. Mathematical apparatus introduced the decimal system of numbers, other notations are absent. The physical device is represented by a measure of the degree angles, other angle units available. Only under these conditions we can perform addition and subtraction.
5. Go to the mathematical model of the physical problem and perform mathematical operations with numbers using a calculator, a sheet of paper or in your mind.
6. Get ready solution to the problem in physical form.
Here's a novel in verse about I turned to a very simple task. The accuracy of the description of this literary opus does not claim because the school did not teach me this, had to invent on the fly. All the described actions we perform automatically, without going into detailed explanations. I agree with mathematicians that stupid every solution of the problem in as much detail paint. But even more stupid stupid to perform the actions that you teach. In this case, the formation is converted into a conventional animal training.

On the graph, there are a series of larger and larger parallelograms joined together by a straight line on y=x where n is unchanged, mostly in the case where n is a multiple of the bit length of n. In addition to the main line that cuts through the graph, each parallelogram has the same few sloped lines in its borders.

supplementary angles
Supplementary angles are pairs of angles that add up to 180 degrees
Supplementary angles are pairs of angles that add up to 180 degrees. In other words, if you have two angles and the sum of their measures is 180 degrees, then those angles are considered to be supplementary.
To give you an example, let's say we have angle A and angle B. If angle A measures 60 degrees, and angle B measures 120 degrees, then these two angles are supplementary angles since their sum is equal to 180 degrees (60 + 120 = 180).
Supplementary angles can be found in various geometric figures, such as triangles, quadrilaterals, and parallel lines. For instance, in a parallelogram, opposite angles are always supplementary. In a triangle, if two angles are supplementary to a third angle, then those two angles must also be supplementary to each other.
It's important to note that supplementary angles do not have to be adjacent (next to each other) or in any specific arrangement. They can be located anywhere in relation to each other. As long as their measures add up to 180 degrees, they are considered supplementary.
Supplementary angles can be useful in solving various math problems, such as calculating unknown angles or finding angle relationships in geometric shapes

Activities to Teach Students to Find Missing Angles in Quadrilaterals
As a teacher, you need to come up with creative and engaging activities to help your students understand the important mathematical concept of finding missing angles in quadrilaterals. Quadrilaterals are four-sided two-dimensional shapes, and finding the missing angles is a crucial skill that helps students in their geometry lessons. With a few activities, you can make your geometry lessons fun and educational.
1. Build the Quadrilaterals
Building quadrilaterals out of different types of materials is a great way to teach students about the different types of quadrilaterals and their angles. Allow students to work in groups and use building materials like pipe cleaners, straws, popsicle sticks, and clay to construct quadrilaterals. This activity helps students to visualize each angle of the quadrilateral and understand how a variant angle could be calculated.
2. Solve the Mystery Challenge
Assign students to a team and give them a challenge to solve. In this mystery challenge, there will be a quadrilateral with some missing angles, and students have to solve it. Provide them with some clues and strategies that will help them solve the puzzle. The challenge will require them to apply the understanding of angles, the property of quadrilaterals in order to calculate and find the missing angles.
3. Find the Missing Angles Treasure Hunt
This activity requires students to search for missing angles of quadrilaterals. You can create clues for them to follow, or they can work in groups and create their own treasure hunt. Provide students with different angles they have to find around the classroom. For example, one clue might say, "Find the missing angle of a parallelogram that measures twenty degrees and its opposite angle measures sixty degrees". Students need to be observant and understand the different qualities and angles of quadrilaterals to solve the clues and complete the challenge.
4. Interactive Online Activities
Modern-day students enjoy using electronic devices, and teachers should utilize this trait at times. There are many interactive activities online that can help students learn how to find missing angles in quadrilaterals. There are games, quizzes, and videos that students can access for free. Websites such as Mathplayground.com, IXL, and Khan Academy offers interactive activities to teach students about angles, which also includes learning how to find missing angles in quadrilaterals.
5. Real-life Examples
Another way to teach students how to find missing angles in quadrilaterals is to present real-life examples related to these concepts. Examples such as the design of a football field, a playground equipment like a set of parallel bars, objects present in the classroom, among others. These illustrations help students see how they can apply the concept of finding the missing angle in their day-to-day lives.
Teaching students how to find missing angles in quadrilaterals can be daunting for beginners. By implementing interactive and engaging activities, teachers can make learning enjoyable and memorable for their students. These activities will help students remember the rules of finding the missing angle and inspire them to be more creative thinkers

Question 2: A pole stands vertically inside a triangular park ABC. Let the angle of elevation of the top of the pole from each corner of the park be π / 3. If the radius of the circumcircle of △ABC is 2, then the height of the pole is equal to
a. 1 / √3 b. √3 c. 2√3 d. 2√3 / 3
Answer: (c)
tan 60o = h / 2
h = 2√3
Question 3: Let in a series of 2n observations, half of them are equal to a and the remaining half are equal to -a. Also by adding a constant b in each of these observations, the mean and standard deviation of the new set become 5 and 20, respectively. Then the value of a2 + b2 is equal to:
Question 7: Let S1 be the sum of the first 2n terms of an arithmetic progression. Let S2 be the sum of the first 4n terms of the same arithmetic progression. If (S2 – S1) is 1000, then the sum of the first 6n terms of the arithmetic progression is equal to :
Let the centre of the variable circle be C3(h, k) and the radius is r.
C3C1 = 3 – r
C2C3 = 1 + r
C3C1 + C2C3 = 4
So locus is ellipse whose focii are C1 & C2
And major axis is 2a = 4 and 2ae = C1C2 = 2
⇒ e = 1 / 2
⇒ b2 = 4 [1 – (1 / 4)] = 3
The centre of the ellipse is the midpoint of C1 & C2 is (1, 0).
The equation of the ellipse is [x – 1]2 / 22 + [y2] / [√3]2 = 1.
Now by cross-checking the option (2, ± 3 / 2) satisfied it.
Question 9: Let the centroid of an equilateral triangle ABC be at the origin. Let one of the sides of the equilateral triangle be along the straight line x + y = 3. If R and r be the radius of circumcircle and incircle respectively of ΔABC, then (R + r) is equal to
a. 2√2 b. 3√2 c. 7√2 d. 9 / √2
Answer: (d)
r = |(0 + 0 – 3) / √2| = 3 / √2
sin 30° = r / R = 1 / 2
R = 2r
So, r + R = 3r = 3 * (3 / √2) = 9 / √2
Question 10: In a triangle ABC, if vector BC = 8, CA = 7, AB = 10, then the projection of the vector AB on AC is equal to:
a. 25 / 4 b. 85 / 14 c. 127 / 20 d. 115 / 16
Answer: (b)
Projection of AB on AC is = AB cos A = 10 cos A
By cosine rule
cos A = [102 + 72 – 82] / [2 . 10 . 7]
= 85 / 140
10 cos A = 10 (85 / 140) = 85 / 14
Question 11: Let in a Binomial distribution, consisting of 5 independent trials, probabilities of exactly 1 and 2 successes be 0.4096 and 0.2048 respectively. Then the probability of getting exactly 3 successes is equal to:
a. 80 / 243 b. 32 / 625 c. 128 / 625 d. 40 / 243
Answer: (b)
5C1 p1 q4 = 0.4096 — (1)
5C2 p2 q3 = 0.2048 — (2)
(1) / (2) ⇒ q / 2p = 2 ⇒ q = 4p
p + q = 1 ⇒ p = 1 / 5 and q = 4 / 5
P (exactly 3) = 5C3 (p)3 (q)2 = 5C3 (1 / 5)3 (4 / 5)2
= (10) * (1 / 125) * (16 / 25) = 32 / 625
Question 12: Let a and b be two non-zero vectors perpendicular to each other and |a| = |b|. If |a x b| = |a|, then the angle between the vectors (a + b + (a x b)) and a is equal to:
Question 13: Let a complex number be w = 1 – √3i. Let another complex number z be such that |zw| = 1 and arg (z) – arg (w) = π / 2. Then the area of the triangle with vertices origin, z and w is equal to:
Question 17: Consider a hyperbola H : x2 – 2y2 = 4. Let the tangent at a point P (4, √6) meet the x-axis at Q and latus rectum at R (x1, y1), x1 > 0. If F is a focus of H which is nearer to the point P, then the area of ΔQFR is equal to:
Question 20: Let a tangent be drawn to the ellipse (x2 / 27) + y2 = 1 at (3√3 cos θ, sin θ) where θ ∈ (0, π / 2). Then the value of θ such that the sum of intercepts on axes made by a tangent is minimum is equal to:
Question 25: Let P (x) be a real polynomial of degree 3 which vanishes at x = – 3. Let P(x) have local minima at x = 1, local maxima at x = -1 and ∫-11 P (x) dx = 18, then the sum of all the coefficients of the polynomial P (x) is equal to _______________ .

Elements of geometry and mensuration
by supposition, .. AC: ac :: CD: cd. Hence again the triangle ACD is similar to the triangle acd. And in the same way it may be shewn that the triangles ADE, ade, are similar and also that the remaining triangles AEF, aef are similar.
N. B. It is not enough in polygons, as in triangles, to make them similar, that the angles of the one are respectively equal to those of the other, because two triangles cannot have their angles respectively equal without having the sides about equal angles proportional; whereas this does not hold for polygons, seeing that we can alter the sides in an almost endless number of ways, without altering any angle. For instance, suppose we cut off a large part of the polygon ABCDEF by a line parallel to BC and near to AD, the angles of the new polygon will be the same as those of ABCDEF, but it is obvious that the new polygon is not similar to abcdef, not having its sides in the same proportion.
COR. The converse will easily follow, viz. that, if two polygons are composed of the same number of similar triangles, arranged in the same order in each polygon, the polygons shall be similar.
90. PROP. V. Upon a given straight line to construct a polygon similar to a given polygon.
Let ABCDEF be the given polygon, and G the given straight line; it is required to construct upon G, that is, upon a base equal to G, a polygon similar to ABCDEF.
(1) Suppose G less than AB; with centre A and radius equal to G describe a circle cutting AB in b, making Ab equal to G; join AC, AD, AE; through b draw be parallel to BC meeting AC in c; through c draw cd
parallel to CD meeting AD in d; through d draw de parallel to DE meeting AE in e; and through e draw ef parallel to EF meeting AF in f. Then Abcdef shall be similar to ABCDEF, and it stands upon the base Ab equal to G.
For, since bc is parallel to BC, the triangles Abc, ABC are similar. So also Acd is similar to ACD; Ade to ADE; and Aef to AEF, .. ▲Abc=▲ABC; ▲Acb= LACB; Acd = 2ACD, and .. 4bcd = ¿BCD. Similarly cde CDE, def = DEF, and zefA = EFA. Hence Abcdef and ABCDEF are equiangular.
Hence ABCDEF and Abcdef are similar polygons. (2) If G be greater than AB, produce AB, AC, AD, AE, AF indefinitely, and in AB produced take Ab equal to G, and proceed as before.
91. PROP. VI. The perimeters of regular polygons of the same number of sides are proportional to the radii of their inscribed or circumscribing circles; and their areas are proportional to the squares of those radii.
(1) Let AB, ab be sides of two regular polygons of the same name, that is, of the same number of sides;
WV W
A D B
O, o, the centres of their inscribed and circumscribing circles*. Join OA, OB, oa, ob; and draw OD perpendicular to AB, and od perpendicular to ab. Then OA = OB = radius of circumscribing circle to one of the polygons, and oa = ob = radius of circumscribing circle to the other polygon; OD = radius of inscribed circle to
=
That the inscribed and circumscribing circles in the same regular polygon have the same centre appears from (80).
=
one of the polygons, od radius of inscribed circle to the other polygon (84).
Again, since each side of a regular polygon subtends the same angle at the centre of the inscribed and circumscribing circle, AOB = aob, being angles which are the same part of 4 right angles.
sum of the sides of one polygon: sum of the sides of the other :: OA: oa, or :: OD: od, that is, the perimeters of the polygons are as the radii of the inscribed or circumscribing circles.
(2) Again, since the polygons are made up of the same number of similar triangles, as AOB, aob; and since AOB: aob :: square of AO: square of ao,
or :: square of OD: square of od,
sum of these triangles in one polygon: sum of them in the other :: square of AO: square of ao,
or :: square of OD: square of od;
that is, the areas of the polygons are as the squares the radii of the inscribed or circumscribing circles.
of
92. PROP. VII. The areas of similar polygons are to one another as the squares of any homologous sides, or corresponding lines within the polygons.
Let ABCDEF, abcdef be two similar polygons, of which AB, ab are any two corresponding sides; then area ABCDEF: abcdef :: square of AB : square of ab. From A, a, draw the diagonals AC, AD, AE, ac, ad, These will divide the polygons into the same number of triangles, similar and similarly situated, each to each, see fig. (89).
OP. II. Me ircumferences of ircies are to one mother is their "aator umeters; inu heir treas We Tonortionat to the auares raose "ault r Hameters.
incnose my two similar regular polygons to have heir cumsericing circies irawn out them: these arries will represent in "WO circies. Bisect each of the arcs subtended by each or he sides of the two polygona, ma join the points or section with the adjacent angular joints of the polygons; then two polygons of tonble the number of sides will be formed, while the creamscribing circies remain the same: and the perimeters and areas of these latter polygons will obviously anomach nearer to the perimeters and areas of the circles than those of the former polygons. Again the ares subtended by the sides of these polygons may be bisected, and other polygons described with double the number of idea, while the circles remain the same; and so on without Limit, until the polygons are made to approach as near as me please to the circles.
Now the perimeters of similar regular polygons are *the radii of their circumscribing circles, and the areas * the aquares of those radii, whatever be the number of des, and therefore when that number, as above, is supposed to be indefinitely increased. But, by thus inCreasing the number of sides the polygons may be made to differ from the circles by less than any assignable magnitude, both as to perimeter and area. Hence the perimeters, that is, the circumferences of the circles will

Also, since the diameters will obviously have the same ratio to each other as the radii, the circumferences of circles will be as their diameters, and the areas as the squares of those diameters.

(2) Define 'angle of a polygon'; and shew that in every polygon the sum of all the angles is a multiple of a right angle.
(3) Shew that the angle of a regular polygon is always greater than a right angle; and that it increases as the number of sides increases.
(4) Shew that the angle of a regular octagon is equal to one right angle and a half. Hence construct a regular octagon upon a given straight line.
(5) Shew that the side of a regular hexagon is equal to the radius of the circumscribing circle.
(6) What is the number of diagonals which may be drawn in a polygon of ten sides?
(7) Dividing a polygon by means of certain diagonals into the triangles of which it may be supposed to be made up, shew that the number of these triangles will always be less by 2 than the number of sides of the polygon.
(8) Shew that in a regular pentagon each diagonal is parallel to a side; and that, if all the diagonals be drawn another regular pentagon will be formed by their intersections within the former one.

An isosceles triangle has sides #a,# #b,# and #c# with sides #a# and #c# being equal in length. If side #b# goes from #(5 ,1 )# to #(3 ,2 )# and the triangle's area is #8 #, what are the possible coordinates of the triangle's third vertex?
Now, we know the length of side b and the area of the triangle. We can rearrange the formula for the area of a triangle to solve for the height:
Height = (2 * Area) / base
Since the triangle is isosceles, the base (side b) is equal to the length of side b, which is sqrt(5). Substituting the given values:
Height = (2 * 8) / sqrt(5) = 16 / sqrt(5)
Now, we can find the possible coordinates of the third vertex by moving along the line that is perpendicular to side b and passes through its midpoint.
First, find the midpoint of side b:
Midpoint = ((5 + 3) / 2, (1 + 2) / 2) = (4, 1.5)
Next, determine the slope of side b:
Slope of side b = (2 - 1) / (3 - 5) = 1 / (-2) = -1/2
The negative reciprocal of the slope of side b will give us the slope of the line perpendicular to side b:
Perpendicular slope = -1 / (-1/2) = 2
Using the slope and the midpoint, we can find the equation of the line perpendicular to side b:
y - 1.5 = 2(x - 4)
Now, we can find the possible coordinates of the third vertex by substituting values for x into this equation and solving for y

Using Geometer's
Sketchpad to Help Students Visualize Parabolas,
Ellipses and Hyperbolas by: David Wise
Geometer's Sketchpad (GSP) is a powerful tool in helping students
to discover geometric relationships, make conjectures, and develop
proofs. In addition, GSP should be utilized by teachers to create
more effective demonstrations. GSP is a dynamic program that can
help make geometric and algebraic concepts more concrete. The
purpose of this page is to provide alternative demonstration techniques
using animation, trace and locus functions of GSP to generate
parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas.
There are many options in creating a demonstation and/or investigation.
In the script and sketch above, a trace is set for point
P, the constructed point that is always equidistant from the
directrix and focus. To generate the parabola, click and drag
point D along the directrix. Therefore, the parabola is manually
generated by the user.
An action button can be created that will
animate the generation of the parabola using the trace
of point P. In this case, the user only needs to double-click
the action button to view the dynamic generation of the parabola.
Click here for the sketch.
An action button can be created that will
animate the generation of the parabola using the trace
of the tangent line at point P. Again, the user only
needs to double click the action button to view the generation
of the parabola. However, tracing the tangent line provides a
dramatically different picture than in option 2 (and option 1).
Click herefor the sketch.
The locus of points, using point P, can
be constructed to generate the parabola. In this case, the parabola
has already been generated through the construction. The user
can click and drag point D along the directrix to view point
P moving along its locus of points. Click
here for the sketch.
The locus of lines, using the tangent line
at point P, can be constructed to generate the parabola. The
parabola has already been generated through the construction,
but provides a significantly different picture. Again, the user
can click and drag point D along the directrix to view the tangent
line moving along its locus of lines. Click
here for the sketch.
Each option provides a variation in the presentation of the
generated parabola. In the first three options, the user views
the generation of the parabola, but the parabola is "lost"
because it is generated through the trace function. Constructing
a locus does not allow the user to see the generation of the parabola,
but the parabola is not "lost". Option 1 is the most
manual of all the options. In addition, focusing on point P or
the tangent line, provides a different picture of the same parabola.
So, the question arises, "Is one better than the other?".
I feel the answer is yes and no. Yes, in the sense that some options
are better than others, depending upon the specific educational
goal(s). No, in the sense using any of these options is better
than not utilizing GSP at all. In addition, I feel that using
two or more of these options would be best designing a lesson
to reach the specified educational goals. I firmly believe in
the old adage that the more you have in your bag of tricks, the
better prepare you are to help your students reach success. Therefore,
I feel it is important to know as many options as possible for
creating demonstrations and/or investigations.
If understanding how a parabola is generated, I feel any of
the first three options are best. In all options, the user can
move the focus in relation to the directrix to view what effect
the change will have on the parabola. To understand how a parabola
changes based upon the distance between the focus and directrix,
I feel that options 4 and 5 are best.
Ellipses and hyperbolas can be generated
using the same techniques as above. I will provide a script for
the basic construction of each. I will also provide a sketch for
each option used to generate the conic section.
An Ellipse GSP construction is the set of points equidistant
from a circle, called the directrix, and a fixed point, called
the focus. The focus must be inside the directrix.
Manual generation of an ellipse ellipse is effected when the distance
between the focus and directrix is changed. What happens when
the focus is placed on the center of the circle (directrix)? What
happens when the focus is placed on the circle (directrix)? What
happens when the focus is place outside the circle (directrix)?
A Hyperbola GSP construction is the set of points equidistant
from a circle, called the directrix, and a fixed point, called
the focus. The focus must be outside the directrix.
Manual generation of a hyperbola hyperbola is effected when the
distance between the focus and directrix is changed.
If you have any suggestions that would be useful, especially
for use at the high school level, please send e-mail to [email protected].

4.1 Parallax
Parallax is a perspective phenomenon that makes a nearby object appear to shift position with respect to more distant objects when the observation point is changed.
As illustrated in Figure 4.1 the amount of the shift, measured as an angle, is called the parallax angle. And those very different lines of sight would make the parallax angle bigger for an object at a given distance as shown in Figure 4.2. By comparing the parallax angle in Figure 4.1 and 4.2, you can see that greater separation between observation points increase the parallax angle for an object at any given distance. The separation between observation points is called the "baseline" of the parallax measurement. In fact the tangent of the parallax angle is directly proportional to the baseline. But for angles less than about 10∘ the tangent of an angle and the value of the angle (in radians) are same to within about 1%. In astronomy, you'll encounter are fraction of a degree, so this approximation is useful. (Some astronomy texts define the stellar parallax angle as half of the angle by which the objects shifts considering the half of baseline as described in Section 5.1.)
So we obtain
(4.1) parallax angle ∝ (base line/object distance) or
(4.2) parallax angle = (const) ⨯ (base line/object distance),
where the constant will be 1.0 as long as the units of the baseline and the object distance are same and the units of the parallax angle are radians. We can build the conversion factor from radians to degrees as follows
(4.3) parallax angle (deg) = 57.3∘ ⨯ (base line/object distance),
where the factor of 57.3 (which is 180/π) does the conversion from radians to degrees, because 180∘ = π radians.
For example, Using a baseline of 20m, a surveyor measures a parallax angle of 2.4∘ for a distant tree, We can find the distance
object distance = 180 deg/π (baseline/parallax angle (deg)) = 57.3∘(20 m/2.4∘) = 477.5 m.
4.3 Angular resolution
Angular resolution is the minimum angle over which two points may be seen as separate rather than blurred together. Resolution is related th the wave nature of light. When two ore more waves are present at the same location, the interaction between these waves is called "interference".
We should notice when two waves are in step (also called "in phase"), the add constructively to produce a larger wave. But if those are out of step, they add destructively to produce a smaller wave. And if the waves are just slightly out of step. the resultant wave is not as big as the perfectly in-step case, but it is still bigger than either of the constituent waves. As we can see in Figure 4.9, the waves from astronomical objects after passing through the lens converge toward a "focal point" which is on the lens axis (the angles are exaggerated for clarity) at a "focal plane".
It's important to understand that at the focal point all the waves on the lens are all in step. This means that the waves produce a bright spot on the image and over a small region the waves add constructively. That graph wth a large central peak surrounded by lots of little bumps is called the "point-spread function" (PSF) because it shows how the light from a single source point is spread out one the image. We should also notice that there are series of "nulls" between the minor peaks. We should understand that the light is spread over a small region and the bigger that region, the "fuzzier" the image looks. The ring pattern is called "Airy pattern" and bright central spot is called the "Airy disk". (Both are named after George Biddell Airy.)
Now we can consider what happens when the waves from two sources strikes the at he same time as shown in Figure 4.13. In this case The two PSFs might be sufficiently separated and these two sources are said to be "resolved". When the two PSF is at least as great as the separation between the peak and the first null of a single PSF the case meets the "Rayleigh criterion" (defined by Lord Rayleigh). Meeting the Rayleigh criterion ensures that an observer can recognize that there are two separate sources.
The final concept you need to consider before you can understand the equation for angular resolution based on the Rayleigh criterion was that the dith of the PSF depends on the wavelength of the light and the size of the lens or mirror. For any given wavelengh, the larger the lens, the narrower the PSF. So a telescope with a large aperture produces a narrower PSF than a telescope with a smaller aperture, as shown in Figure 4.17, because larger lens have greater distance from the center to the edge of the lens, and the greater that distance, the less angle it takes cause the edge waves to get out of step with the center waves. This means that the angular resolution of a telescope is inversely proportional to the aperture:
(4.9) angular resolution ∝ 1/aperture.
The width of the PSF also depends on the wavelength(𝜆) of light use, because the shorter the wavelength, the smaller angular shift it takes to make the edge waves get out of step with the center waves. This means:
(4.10) angular resolution ∝ 𝜆.
Combining the Eqs. 4.9 and 4.10 gives:
(4.11) angular resolution ∝ 𝜆/aperture, or
(4.12) angular resolution = (const) ⨯ [𝜆 /aperture].
If angular resolution is expressed in the radian, the constant of proportionality in Eqs. 4.12 is approximately 1.22 for a circular lens. Thus
(4.13) angular resolution (rad) = 1.22 ⨯ [𝜆 (same units as aperture) / aperture (same units as 𝜆)].
For example, a telescope with a 10-inch lens is used to observe celestial objects. The angular resolution of this telescope in the middle of visible range is:
The wavelength of visible light range from around 400 nm to 700 nm, so the average is about 550 nm, so
𝜆 = 550 nm = 550 ⨯ 10-9 m = 5.5 ⨯ 10-7 m and aperture = 10 in - 10 ⨯ 0.0254 m = 0.254 m
angular resolution (rad) = 1.22 ⨯ [5.5 ⨯ 10-7 m/0.254 m] 2.64 ⨯ 10-6 radians, which can be coverted to arcseconds as follows:
2.64 ⨯ 10-6 radians = 2.64 ⨯ 10-6 radians ⨯ [180 degrees/π radians] ⨯ [3,600"/1 degree] = 0.54 arcseconds.
Since wavelength is usually expressed in arcseconds:
(4.14) angular resolution (arcsec) = 0.25 [𝜆(𝜇m)/aperture(m)].

Cosine, sine and tangent in R
R provides several functions to compute trigonometric functions, such as the sine, cosine, tangent, arc-cosine, arc-sine and arc-tangent with the cos(), sin(), tan(), acos(), asin() and atan() functions. In this tutorial we will review how to compute and plot these functions.
Cosine function with cos
The cosine for an angle \(x\) is the length of side adjacent to angle \(x\) divided by the length of the hypotenuse. You can use the cos function to compute the cosine function for a single value or a vector of values.
Tangent function with tan
The tangent of an angle \(x\) is the length of side opposite angle \(x\) divided by the length of the side adjacent to angle \(x\). In R, you can make use of the tan function to calculate the tangent of an angle

Ted21 wrote:you are quoting statement 2 correctly but your interpretation of statement 1 is not correct.
The property that you have mentioned in the red text above is ONLY possible when the triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle and in this triangle AB = BC which is not the case provided to us.
Triangle ABC is NOT 45-45-90 triangle and hence you can not say that the hypotenuse will be divided into 2 by the height from B.
The way you will be able to calculate the impact of height is as follows:
As we don't know the value of x, we are required to find its value to get the area of the triangle ABC.
(1) The height from point B to the hypotenuse is 120. This implies that B and point D(one that meets AC) make a line that is perpendicular to AC. Since there can only be one unique value for BD, we know that it must have some value that follows a ratio pattern with any side of the triangle. Although going into the details of this is not required, only knowing that is enough.
And if there is a unique value then getting a value of x, eventually area, becomes easier.
SUFFICIENT.
(2) The perimeter of the triangle is 680. Now, for this we have 8x + 15x + 17x = 680 This gives x = 17
From here on we can calculate the value of area.

the following two derivation expressions will give you the min and max y coordinates respectively: (ycoordinate (leftlower_point (box p))) and (ycoordinate (rightupper_point (box p))), where p is the polygon. However, if the actual measure sought is not strictly in the y direction, but rather "orthogonal to the edge" or "towards the outside", then it might be better to find a measure which is independant of orientation. For instance, if you have the edge that delineates the discussed polygon (in read above), you could find a vector perpendicular to it (using rotate), then find the size of the polygon or its box along this vector. Another alternative is to rotate the polygon itself (rotate_polygon) to line up with e.g. the y axis, where the angle is decided by the orientation of the edge, then find its extent in e.g. the y direction

Question 3.
Show that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angles, then it is a rhombus.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a quadrilateral such that the diagonals AC and BD bisect each other at right angles at O.
Question 5.
Show that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other at right angles, then it is a square.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a quadrilateral such that diagonals AC and BD are equal and bisect each other at right angles.
Question 8.
ABCD is a rectangle in which diagonal AC bisects ∠A as well as ∠C. Show that
(i) ABCD is a square
(ii) diagonal BD bisects ∠B as well as ∠D.
Solution:
We have a rectangle ABCD such that AC bisects ∠A as well as ∠C.
i.e., ∠1 = ∠4 and ∠2 = ∠3 ……..(1)
(i) Since, every rectangle is a parallelogram.
∴ ABCD is a parallelogram.
⇒ AB || CD and AC is a transversal.
∴∠2 = ∠4 …(2)
[ ∵ Alternate interior angles are equal]
From (1) and (2), we have
∠3 = ∠4
In ∆ABC, ∠3 = ∠4
⇒ AB = BC
[ ∵ Sides opposite to equal angles of a A are equal]
Similarly, CD = DA
So, ABCD is a rectangle having adjacent sides equal.
⇒ ABCD is a square.
(ii) Since, ABCD is a square and diagonals of a square bisect the opposite angles.
So, BD bisects ∠B as well as ∠D.
Question 9.
In parallelogram ABCD, two points P and Q are taken on diagonal BD such that DP = BQ (see Fig. 8.20). Show that:
(i) ΔAPD ≅ ΔCQB
(ii) AP = CQ
(iii) ΔAQB ≅ ΔCPD
(iv) AQ = CP
(v) APCQ is a parallelogram
Solution:
(i) In ΔAPD and ΔCQB,
DP = BQ (Given)
∠ADP = ∠CBQ (Alternate interior angles)
AD = BC (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
Thus, ΔAPD ≅ ΔCQB [SAS congruency]
(ii) AP = CQ by CPCT as ΔAPD ≅ ΔCQB.
(iii) In ΔAQB and ΔCPD,
BQ = DP (Given)
∠ABQ = ∠CDP (Alternate interior angles)
AB = CD (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
Thus, ΔAQB ≅ ΔCPD [SAS congruency]
(iv) As ΔAQB ≅ ΔCPD
AQ = CP [CPCT]
(v) From the questions (ii) and (iv), it is clear that APCQ has equal opposite sides and also has equal and opposite angles. , APCQ is a parallelogram.
Question 10.
ABCD is a parallelogram and AP and CQ are perpendiculars from vertices A and C on diagonal BD (see Fig. 8.21). Show that
Solution:
(i) We have AB = DE [Given]
and AB || DE [Given]
i. e., ABED is a quadrilateral in which a pair of opposite sides (AB and DE) are parallel and of equal length.
∴ ABED is a parallelogram.
(ii) BC = EF [Given]
and BC || EF [Given]
i.e. BEFC is a quadrilateral in which a pair of opposite sides (BC and EF) are parallel and of equal length.
∴ BEFC is a parallelogram.
(iii) ABED is a parallelogram [Proved]
∴ AD || BE and AD = BE …(1)
[ ∵ Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal and parallel] Also, BEFC is a parallelogram. [Proved]
BE || CF and BE = CF …(2)
[ ∵ Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal and parallel]
From (1) and (2), we have
AD || CF and AD = CF
(iv) Since, AD || CF and AD = CF [Proved]
i.e., In quadrilateral ACFD, one pair of opposite sides (AD and CF) are parallel and of equal length.
∴Quadrilateral ACFD is a parallelogram.
To Construct: Draw a line through C parallel to DA intersecting AB produced at E.
(i) CE = AD (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
AD = BC (Given)
, BC = CE
⇒∠CBE = ∠CEB
also,
∠A+∠CBE = 180° (Angles on the same side of transversal and ∠CBE = ∠CEB)
∠B +∠CBE = 180° ( As Linear pair)
⇒∠A = ∠B
(ii) ∠A+∠D = ∠B+∠C = 180° (Angles on the same side of transversal)

Ex 8.2
Question 1.
ABCD is a quadrilateral in which P, Q, R and S are mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA (see figure). AC is a diagonal. Show that
(i) SR || AC and SR = AC
(ii) PQ = SR
(iii) PQRS is a parallelogram.
Solution:
(i) In ∆ACD, We have

SR = AC and SR || AC …(1)
[By mid-point theorem]
Question 4.
ABCD is a trapezium in which AB || DC, BD is a diagonal and E is the mid-point of AD. A line is drawn through E parallel to AB intersecting BC at F (see figure). Show that F is the mid-point of BC.
Solution:
We have,
In ∆DAB, we know that E is the mid-point of
AD and EG || AB [∵ EF || AB]
Using the converse of mid-point theorem, we get, G is the mid-point of BD.
Again in ABDC, we have G is the midpoint of BD and GF || DC.
[∵ AB || DC and EF || AB and GF is a part of EF]
Using the converse of the mid-point theorem, we get, F is the mid-point of BC.
Question 5.
In a parallelogram ABCD, E and F are the mid-points of sides AB and CD respectively (see figure). Show that the line segments AF and EC trisect the diagonal BD.
Solution:
Since, the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal.
∴ AB || DC
⇒ AE || FC ...(1)
and AB = DC
⇒ AB = DC
⇒ AE = FC ...(2)
From (1) and (2), we have
AE || PC and AE = PC
∴ ∆ECF is a parallelogram.
Now, in ∆DQC, we have F is the mid-point of DC and FP || CQ
[∵ AF || CE]
⇒ DP = PQ ...(3)
[By converse of mid-point theorem] Similarly, in A BAP, E is the mid-point of AB and EQ || AP [∵AF || CE]
⇒ BQ = PQ ...(4)
[By converse of mid-point theorem]
∴ From (3) and (4), we have
DP = PQ = BQ
So, the line segments AF and EC trisect the diagonal BD.
Question 6.
Show that the line segments joining the mid-points of the opposite sides of a quadrilateral bisect each other.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a quadrilateral, where P, Q, R and S are the mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA respectively.
Join PQ, QR, RS and SP.
Let us also join PR, SQ and AC.
Now, in ∆ABC, we have P and Q are the mid-points of its sides AB and BC respectively.
∴ PQ || AC and PQ = AC ...(1)
[By mid-point theorem]
Similarly, RS || AC and RS = AC ...(2)
∴ By (1) and (2), we get
PQ || RS, PQ = RS
∴ PQRS is a parallelogram.
And the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, i.e., PR and SQ bisect each other. Thus, the line segments joining the midpoints of opposite sides of a quadrilateral ABCD bisect each other.
Question 7.
ABC is a triangle right angled at C. A line through the mid-point M of hypotenuse AB and parallel to BC intersects AC at D. Show that
(i) D is the mid-point of AC

(iii) CM = MA = AB
Solution:
we have

sinx
The term "sinx" refers to the sine function, which is one of the fundamental trigonometric functions in mathematics
The term "sinx" refers to the sine function, which is one of the fundamental trigonometric functions in mathematics. It represents the ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle "x" in a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse.
In more technical terms, if we consider a right triangle with one angle "x" (measured in radians), the sine of that angle is calculated by dividing the length of the side opposite the angle by the length of the hypotenuse. Symbolically, sinx = opposite/hypotenuse.
The sine function has a periodic behavior, meaning it repeats itself after certain intervals. The function ranges from -1 to 1, with the maximum value of 1 occurring at angles of 90 degrees or π/2 radians, and the minimum value of -1 occurring at angles of 270 degrees or 3π/2 radians.
The sine function is commonly used in various areas of mathematics, physics, engineering, and other sciences to model and solve problems involving periodic phenomena, such as waves, oscillations, and alternating currents.
It is worth noting that the sine function can also be defined using the unit circle, where the coordinates of a point on the unit circle correspond to the sine and cosine values of a certain angle
| 677.169 | 1 |
Angular position
The first is the angular position, conventionally
denoted by , as in Figure 5.1. This is
the angle at a particular instant in time that the object
makes with respect to some fixed reference axis. This angle
may be measured in degrees, although in some instances it is
more convenient to express it in a unit called radians.
A radian is defined such that 2
radians represents one
complete revolution (360o). The conversion is therefore
1 radian = (360/2)o. Since
is approximately
3.14, this gives about 57o per radian. Radians have special
geometrical and physical significance, because for an object going
in a circle, the distance traveled by the object (i.e. arc length)
is precisely equal to the angular displacement in radians times
the radius of the circle.
One of the reasons that the description of circular motion in terms of
angular displacement is so useful is that it can be applied to
the motion of
extended, rigid objects rotating about a fixed axis. In particular, if an
object, such as the one shown below, is rotating about an axis through
the point, O, its motion is completely described by the angle
through which any point in the object has rotated about that
axis. This is true because every point in the object must rotate around
the axis the precisely the same number of times per second, otherwise
the object
would break apart, or deform.
| 677.169 | 1 |
As with other angle functions, you can replace line l1, line l2 with pair A, pair O, pair B, which would mark the angle . The function will draw an arc from line AO or l1 to line BO or l2, counterclockwise, with radius and label it with the provided Label L.
If the function draws the angle in the wrong direction, try swapping the first pair with the third pair, or, if you put in lines, swapping l1 and l2.
As you can see, this is an inferior method as the path also covers part of the angle and the origin of labeling is the point instead of the angle mark. However, anglemark() makes a bit more abstract sense and is more flexible.

Symmetric And Skew-Symmetric Matrices
Symmetric And Skew-Symmetric Matrices are special types of square matrices that have interesting properties and applications in various fields of mathematics and science. Let's explore each type and their properties in more detail:
Symmetric And Skew-Symmetric Matrices
Symmetric Matrices: A square matrix A is symmetric if it is equal to its transpose, that is, if A = A^T. In other words, the entries across the main diagonal of the matrix are mirrored across the diagonal.
Properties of symmetric matrices:
The main diagonal of a symmetric matrix consists of real numbers.
The sum of two symmetric matrices is symmetric.
The product of a symmetric matrix and a scalar is symmetric.
The product of two symmetric matrices need not be symmetric.
Applications of symmetric matrices:
Eigenvalue Problems: Symmetric matrices have real eigenvalues and orthogonal eigenvectors, making them crucial in solving problems related to eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
Quadratic Forms: Symmetric matrices are used to represent quadratic forms in mathematics and physics.
Graph Theory: In graph theory, the adjacency matrix of an undirected graph is symmetric.
Skew-Symmetric Matrices: A square matrix A is skew-symmetric if it is equal to the negation of its transpose, that is, if A = -A^T. This means that the entries below the main diagonal are the negation of the corresponding entries above the diagonal.
Properties of skew-symmetric matrices:
The main diagonal of a skew-symmetric matrix consists of zeros.
The sum of two skew-symmetric matrices is skew-symmetric.
The product of a skew-symmetric matrix and a scalar is skew-symmetric.
The product of two skew-symmetric matrices need not be skew-symmetric.
Applications of skew-symmetric matrices:
Angular Momentum: In physics, skew-symmetric matrices are used to represent angular momentum operators in quantum mechanics.
Rotations: Skew-symmetric matrices can be used to represent and compute rotations in 3D space.
Electromagnetic Theory: In electromagnetism, skew-symmetric matrices are used to describe the cross-product of electric and magnetic fields.
General Properties of Both Types:
The determinant of a symmetric or skew-symmetric matrix is always real.
The eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix are real.
The eigenvalues of a skew-symmetric matrix are either pure imaginary or zero.
If A is symmetric and B is skew-symmetric, then the product AB is skew-symmetric.
It's worth noting that not all square matrices are either symmetric or skew-symmetric. These special matrix types have distinct mathematical properties that make them particularly useful in various applications across different fields
| 677.169 | 1 |
An isosceles trapezoid will have diagonals of equal length but
will never contain right angles by definition. A square and
rectangle will have diagonals of equal length but will contain 4
right angles. A rhombus and any other parallelogram that does not
contain right angles will not have diagonals of equal length.

Find the intercepts by making once x=0 and then y=0. On finding these intercepts, draw line joining these points. ex for line y=-x+1, the points will be (1,0) and (0,1). On joining these two points, it gets clear that the line will intersect the circle at two points. Similarly for II and III. You will see that III is far away from the circle. Hence I and II cut the circle. +1C

Why do we assume the center is 0,0? I understand that the radius is 5 so it makes logical sense that the center is 0,0 but couldn't the center easily be for example (0,-2) and then the top point of the circle would be (0,3) and bottom be (0,-7). Radius is still 5 but the circle just sits in a different place in the coordinate plane.

Hi healthjunkie,
The original prompt includes a picture that places O at the Origin. IF that drawing was NOT included with the question, and it wasn't clear that the circle was centered at the Origin, then your concerns would be valid. Having the picture to work with, are you comfortable answering the question?

Hi Karishma, What if the first line,y = -x +1, has a restriction that x and y< +-5. Is it still going to qualify as a one of the sufficient answer choices?
I am not sure I understand your question. y = -x + 1 is the equation of a line (which is infinite on both ends) and it intersects the given circle at two points (4, -3) and (-3, 4). Absolute values of both x and y co-ordinates are less than |5| (if that's what you meant). The line intersects the circle in two points and hence will be a part of the answer.

Hi,
I understand the approaches provided by experts.
However, in the real test with scrap paper, how can we draw a perfect circle?
The line in choice iii could have intersected the circle just a tiny bit.
Thanks,
In case of a doubt, just find the shortest distance of the line from the centre (0, 0). The circle with radius 5 will have every point at a distance of 5 from (0, 0). If the shortest distance of the line from (0, 0) is more than 5, it will not cut the circle at all.
The line intersects the x axis at 12 and y axis at -6. So it will form a right triangle with the axis such that hypotenuse is \(\sqrt{12^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{180} = 6*\sqrt{5}\)
Area of the triangle = (1/2)*Leg1*Leg2 = (1/2)*Altitude * Hypotenuse
\(6*12 = Altitude * 6*\sqrt{5}\)
\(Altitude = 2.4*\sqrt{5} = 2.4*2.2 = 5.3 (approx)\)
So shortest distance of the line from (0, 0) is 5.3 which is greater than 5. The line doesn't intersect the circle.

Question 1: In a circle with centre O, points A, B, C and D in this order are concyclic such that BD is a diameter of the circle. If $\angle$BAC = 22$^\circ$, then find the measure (in degrees) of $\angle$COD.
a) 79
b) 136
c) 158
d) 68
1) Answer (B)
Solution:
Angle in a semicircle is right angle.
$\Rightarrow$ $\angle$BAD = 90$^\circ$
$\Rightarrow$ $\angle$BAC + $\angle$CAD = 90$^\circ$
$\Rightarrow$ 22$^\circ$ + $\angle$CAD = 90$^\circ$
$\Rightarrow$ $\angle$CAD = 68$^\circ$
Angle subtended by a chord at the center of the circle is twice the angle subtended by the chord on the point of a circle in the same segment.
$\Rightarrow$ $\angle$COD = 2$\angle$CAD
$\Rightarrow$ $\angle$COD = 136$^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is Option B
Question 2: Vertices A, B, C and D of a quadrilateral ABCD lie on a circle. $\angle$A is three times $\angle$C and $\angle$D is two times $\angle$B. What is the difference between the measures of $\angle$D and $\angle$C?
a) $55^\circ$
b) $65^\circ$
c) $75^\circ$
d) $45^\circ$
2) Answer (C)
Solution:
Given,
$\angle$A is three times $\angle$C and $\angle$D is two times $\angle$B.
Difference between the measures of $\angle$D and $\angle$C = 120$^\circ$ – 45$^\circ$
= 75$^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is Option C
Question 3: Points A, B and C are on circle with centre O such that $\angle$BOC = 84$^\circ$. If AC is produced to a point D such that $\angle$BDC = 40$^\circ$, then find the measure of $\angle$ABD (in degrees).
a) 98
b) 92
c) 56
d) 102
3) Answer (A)
Solution:
Angle subtended by chord BC at the centre is twice the angle subtended by chord BC on the point A of the circle.
$\angle$BOC = 2$\angle$BAC
84$^\circ$ = 2$\angle$BAC
$\angle$BAC = 42$^\circ$
From triangle BAD,
$\angle$BAD + $\angle$ABD + $\angle$BDA = 180$^\circ$
42$^\circ$ + $\angle$ABD + 40$^\circ$ = 180$^\circ$
$\angle$ABD = 98$^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is Option A
Question 4: A square has the perimeter equal to the circumference of a circle having radius 7 cm. What is the ratio of the area of the circle to area of the square?(Use $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$)
a) 121 : 44
b) 7 : 2
c) 14 : 11
d) 7 : 11
4) Answer (C)
Solution:
Radius of the circle = 7 cm
Circumference of the circle = $2\times\frac{22}{7}\times7$ = 44 cm
Perimeter of square is equal to the circumference of the circle.
Perimeter of the square = 44 cm
Let the side of the square = a
4a = 44
a = 11 cm
Ratio of the area of the circle to area of the square = $\frac{22}{7}\times7^2\ :\ 11^2$
= 14 : 11
Hence, the correct answer is Option C
Question 5: The area of a circular path enclosed by two concentric circles is 3080 m$^2$. If the difference between the radius of the outer edge and that of inner edge of the circular path is 10 m, what is the sum (in m) of the two radii? (Take $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$)
a) 112
b) 70
c) 84
d) 98
5) Answer (D)
Solution:
Let the radius of the outer circle and inner circle are $r_o$ and $r_i$ respectively.
The difference between the radius of the outer edge and that of inner edge of the circular path is 10 m.
$r_o$ – $r_i$ = 10……..(1)
The area of a circular path enclosed by two concentric circles is 3080 m$^2$.
Question 6: Tangent is drawn from a point P to a circle, which meets the circle at T such that PT = 8 cm. A secant PAB intersects the circle in points A and B. If PA= 5 cm, what is the length (in cm) of the chord AB?
a) 8.0
b) 8.4
c) 6.4
d) 7.8
6) Answer (D)
Solution:
$\Rightarrow$ PT$^2$ = PA. PB
$\Rightarrow$ 8$^2$ = 5 x (PA + AB)
$\Rightarrow$ 64 = 5 x (5 + AB)
$\Rightarrow$ 12.8 = 5 + AB
$\Rightarrow$ AB = 7.8 cm
Hence, the correct answer is Option D
Question 7: Two circles of radius 15 cm and 37 cm intersect each other at the points A and B. If the length of common chord is 24 cm, what is the distance (in cm) between the centres of the circles?
a) 44
b) 45
c) 42
d) 40
7) Answer (A)
Solution:
From triangle AHG,
AH$^2$ + GH$^2$ = AG$^2$
AH$^2$ + 12$^2$ = 15$^2$
AH$^2$ + 144 = 225
AH$^2$ = 81
AH = 9 cm
From triangle CHG,
CH$^2$ + GH$^2$ = CG$^2$
CH$^2$ + 12$^2$ = 37$^2$
CH$^2$ + 144 = 1369
CH$^2$ = 1225
CH = 35 cm
Distance between two circles = AC = AH + CH = 9 + 35 = 44 cm
Hence, the correct answer is Option A
Question 8: Two circles of radii 18 cm and 16 cm intersect each other and the length of their common chord is 20 cm. What is the distance (in cm) between their centres?
Question 9: The area of a quadrant of a circle is $\frac{\pi}{9}$ m$^2$. Its radius (in metres) is equal to:
a) $\frac{2}{3}$
b) $\frac{1}{3}$
c) $\frac{1}{2}$
d) $\frac{3}{2}$
9) Answer (A)
Solution:
Let the radius of the circle = r
Area of the quadrant of the circle = $\frac{\pi}{9}$ m$^2$
$\frac{1}{4}\times\pi$r$^2$ = $\frac{\pi}{9}$
r$^2$ = $\frac{4}{9}$
r = $\frac{2}{3}$
Radius of the circle = $\frac{2}{3}$ m
Hence, the correct answer is Option A
Question 10: In a circle with centre O, AB and CD are parallel chords on the opposite sides of a diameter. If AB = 12 cm, CD = 18 cm and the distance between the chords AB and CD is 15 cm, then find the radius of the circle (in cm).
a) $9\sqrt{13}$
b) 9
c) $3\sqrt{13}$
d) 12
10) Answer (C)
Solution:
From triangle AJO,
r$^2$ = 6$^2$ + (15 – x)$^2$
r$^2$ = 36 + (15 – x)$^2$………………(1)
From triangle CKO,
r$^2$ = 9$^2$ + x$^2$
r$^2$ = 81 + x$^2$………………(2)
From (1) and (2),
36 + (15 – x)$^2$ = 81 + x$^2$
225 + x$^2$ – 30x = 45 + x$^2$
30x = 180
x = 6
From (2),
r$^2$ = 81 + x$^2$
r$^2$ = 81 + 6$^2$
r$^2$ = 81 + 36
r$^2$ = 137
r = $3\sqrt{13}$
Hence, the correct answer is Option C
Question 11: In the figure, a circle touches all the four sides of a quadrilateral ABCD whose sides AB = 6.5 cm, BC = 5.4 cm and CD = 5.3 cm. The length of AD is:
a) 4.6 cm
b) 5.8 cm
c) 6.2 cm
d) 6.4 cm
11) Answer (D)
Solution:
Given, AB = 6.5 cm, BC = 5.4 cm and CD = 5.3 cm
Let the circle touches AB, BC, CD, DA at T, R, Q, S respectively.
Length of tangents to the circle from an external point are equal.
AT = AS
BT = BR
CQ = CR
DQ = DS
Adding all of the above
AT + BT + CQ + DQ = AS + BR + CR + DS
$\Rightarrow$ (AT + BT) + (CQ + DQ) = (AS + DS) + (BR + CR)
$\Rightarrow$ AB + CD = AD + BC
$\Rightarrow$ 6.5 + 5.3 = AD + 5.4
$\Rightarrow$ AD = 6.4 cm
Hence, the correct answer is Option D
Question 12: The circles of same radius 13 cm intersect each other at A and B. If AB = 10 cm, then the distance between their centres is:
a) 18 cm
b) 12 cm
c) 24 cm
d) 26 cm
12) Answer (C)
Solution:
Given, AB = 10 cm
AB is the common chord for both the circles and OD will be the perpendicular bisector of AB.
Question 13: The area of the quadrant of a circle whose circumference is 22 cm, will be:
a) 3.5 $cm^2$
b) 38.5 $cm^2$
c) 10 $cm^2$
d) 9.625 $cm^2$
13) Answer (D)
Solution:
Let the radius of the circle = r
Circumference of the circle = 22 cm
$\Rightarrow$ $2\pi r=22$
$\Rightarrow$ $2\times\frac{22}{7}\times r=22$
$\Rightarrow$ $r=\frac{7}{2}$ cm
$\therefore\ $Area of the quadrant of the circle $=\frac{1}{4}\times\pi\ r^2$
$=\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{22}{7}\times\ \left(\frac{7}{2}\right)^2$
$=\frac{77}{8}$
$=$ 9.625 cm$^2$
Hence, the correct answer is Option D
Question 14: Two circles of radii 20 cm and 5 cm, respectively, touch each other externally at the point P, AB is the direct common tangent of those two circles of centres R and S, respectively. The length of AB is equal to:
a) 10 cm
b) 5 cm
c) 15 cm
d) 20 cm
14) Answer (D)
Solution:
AB is tangent to both the circles.
$\Rightarrow$ AB$\bot\ $AR
Let SC be the line parallel to AB
$\Rightarrow$ SC$\bot\ $AR and AC = BS = 5 cm and AB = SC
Radius of bigger circle AR = 20 cm
$\Rightarrow$ AC + CR = 20
$\Rightarrow$ 5 + CR = 20
$\Rightarrow$ CR = 15 cm
Since circles touch externally as shown in figure
RS = RP + PS = 20 + 5 = 25 cm
In $\triangle$RCS,
CR$^2$ + SC$^2$ = RS$^2$
$\Rightarrow$ 15$^2$ + SC$^2$ = 25$^2$
$\Rightarrow$ 225 + SC$^2$ = 625
$\Rightarrow$ SC$^2$ = 400
$\Rightarrow$ SC = 20 cm
$\therefore\ $Length of AB = SC = 20 cm
Hence, the correct answer is Option D
Question 15: The distance between the centres of two equal circles each of radius 4 cm is 17 cm. The length of a transverse tangent is:
Question 16: ABC is a right angled triangle, right angled at A. A circle is inscribed in it. The lengths of two sides containing the right angle are 48 cm and 14 cm. The radius of the inscribed circle is:
a) 4 cm
b) 8 cm
c) 6 cm
d) 5 cm
16) Answer (C)
Solution:
Using the pythagoras theorem,
BC$^2$ = AB$^2$ + AC$^2$
$\Rightarrow$ BC$^2$ = 48$^2$ + 14$^2$
$\Rightarrow$ BC$^2$ = 2304 + 196
$\Rightarrow$ BC$^2$ = 2500
$\Rightarrow$ BC = 50 cm
Let the radius of the circle = r
$\Rightarrow$ OD = OI = OJ = r
AB, BC, AC are tangents to the circle
Area of $\triangle$ABC = Area of $\triangle$OAC + Area of $\triangle$OBC + Area of $\triangle$OAB

a) 48 cm
b) 46 cm
c) 42 cm
d) 40 cm
17) Answer (A)
Solution:
Given, A is point at a distance 26 cm from the centre O
Radius of the circle = 10 cm
AP and AQ are tangents to the circle at the point of contacts P and Q
$\Rightarrow$ AP$\bot\ $OP and AQ$\bot\ $OQ
The length of tangents to the circle from an external point are equal

Linear transformations are functions between vector spaces that preserve the operations of addition and scalar multiplication. In other words, a linear transformation T: V -> W satisfies T(u + v) = T(u) + T(v) and T(cu) = cT(u) for all vectors u, v in V and scalar c. Geometrically, linear transformations can be thought of as transformations that preserve lines through the origin, hence the term "linear". These transformations play a fundamental role in linear algebra and are used to study various properties of vector spaces and their structures.

Nuclear transformations can be calculated using the decay constant, which is a measure of how quickly a radioactive substance decays. The decay constant is related to the half-life of the substance through the equation λ = ln(2) / T1/2, where λ is the decay constant and T1/2 is the half-life. The number of nuclear transformations per unit time can then be calculated using the equation N(t) = N0 * e^(-λt), where N(t) is the number of nuclei at time t, N0 is the initial number of nuclei, and e is the base of the natural logarithm.

Seven circles theorem
In geometry, the seven circles theorem is a theorem about a certain arrangement of seven circles in the Euclidean plane. Specifically, given a chain of six circles all tangent to a seventh circle and each tangent to its two neighbors, the three lines drawn between opposite pairs of the points of tangency on the seventh circle all pass through the same point. Though elementary in nature, this theorem was not discovered until 1974 (by Evelyn, Money-Coutts, and Tyrrell).

Trigonometric Functions and Right Triangles
When dealing with right triangles (triangles that have one 90 degree angle) in trigonometry, the biggest things to realize is that no matter what size the triangle is, the ratios of the lengths of the sides stay the same. So, it is very natural to give these ratios names – and that's where the right triangle definitions of the trig functions comes from!
In the triangle above, the right angle is marked with a small square. The other two angles are acute angles (have measures less than 90 degrees). Either one of these could be the angle we are interested in since the trig functions will be in terms of which side is next to (adjacent) to our angle and which side is opposite of our angle. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to which angle is of interest anytime you work with these definitions.
[adsenseWide]
Definitions
Given an angle \(\theta\) (theta) like in the picture above, we will define the six trigonometric functions as:
Some textbooks and classes require you to "rationalize" the denominator. This means that where ever there is a root in the denominator like \(\sin(\theta)\) and \(\cos(\theta)\) above, you must multiply the top and bottom of the fraction by that root in order to remove it from the denominator. Again, this isn't always required, but if we do it here:
Important! – These rationalized answers are mathematically the same as the answers above them. Its just a different way of writing the answers.
Now, what if you are only given two of the lengths in the triangle? Does this mean we can't find the other lengths? Not at all. In fact, you only need two of any of the lengths as you can see in the following example.
Example
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of length 10 and a leg of length 6. Find the exact values of the six trigonometric functions of the angle \(\theta\) if \(\theta\) is adjacent to the leg of length 6.
Solution
To be able to find these values, the first thing you will need to do is figure out what the side length is for that missing leg. What is helpful here is the Pythagorean Theorem. It says that if \(a\) and \(b\) are the legs of a right triangle and if \(c\) is the hypotenuse, then:
\(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\)
Using that here, one of the legs is 6, so say \(a = 6\) and \(c = 10\) since \(c\) is the hypotenuse. Therefore:
As you can see, getting a correct picture was a big part of solving this problem. Make sure to read questions carefully to determine which values represent the different parts of the triangle and so you can determine which angle is the angle the problem is asking about.
[adsenseLargeRectangle]
Summary
As you study trigonometry, you will see that these definitions can be expanded to include more angles. For now, take the time to get used to these basic definitions since they come up in a lot of real – life applications.

Vector Product (Part-1) | S N Dey | Class 12
0AdminJuly 20, 2022
In this article, we will discuss the solutions of Very Short Answer Type Questions in the chapter Product of Two Vectors as given in the Chhaya Publication Book of aforementioned chapter of S N De book. In the previous article, we have discussed Vector . So, let's start.
$~1.~$ Define scalar product of two vectors. Show that scalar product of vectors satisfies the commutative and distributive laws.
Solution.
The scalar product (or dot product) of two vectors $~\vec{a}~$ and $~\vec{b}~$ is denoted by $~\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}~;~$ It is a scalar and is defined as follows :
$~\vec{a} \cdot\vec{b}=|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos\theta~,~$ where $~\theta~$ is the angle between the vectors $~\vec{a}~$ and $~\vec{b}~$ and $~|\vec{a}|,~|\vec{b}|~$ are the moduli of the vectors $~\vec{a}~$ and $~\vec{b}~$ respectively.
Since $~~\cos\theta >0~$ when $~\theta~$ is acute and $~\cos\theta<0~$ when $~\theta~$ is obtuse, it follows that the scalar product $~\vec{a} \cdot\vec{b}~$ is positive when $~\theta~$ is acute and negative when $~\theta~$ is obtuse .
Hence, by $~(3)~$ we can conclude that the vectors $~~(\vec{a}+\vec{b})~~$ and $~~(\vec{a}-\vec{b})~~$ are perpendicular to each other.
7. If $~~\vec{a}=3\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+9\hat{k}~~$ and $~~\vec{b}=\hat{i}+\lambda \hat{j}+3\hat{k}~,~$ then find the value of $~~\lambda~,~$ so that the vectors $~~(\vec{a}+\vec{b})~~$ and $~~(\vec{a}-\vec{b})~~$ are perpendicular to each other.
Since the scalar component is negative , so the unit vector of $~~\vec{b}~~$ is negative on vector component and so the vector component of $~~\vec{a}~~$ in the direction of $~~\vec{b}~~$ is given by :

There a 11 points on a plane with 5 lying on one straight line and another 5 lying on a second straight line which is parallel to the first line. The remaining point is not collinear with any two of the previous 10 points. How many triangles can be formed with the vertices chosen from these 11 points?
a) 85
b) 105
c) 125
d) 145
I calculated the number of triangles as follows:
Taken one point on the first line, it can form 5 triangles with the non-collinear point and the 5 points on its opposite parallel line. So, the 5 points on the first line can form 5 x 5 = 25 triangles. Similarly, the points on the second line can form 25 triangles. Therefore, the 10 points on both the lines can form 25 x 25 = 125 triangles.
But, the answer to the question is 145 triangles. Where did I go wrong in calculating the number?
1 Answer
1
First consider the triangles with two vertices on the first line. There are $10$ possible pairs of points on this line, so that they can form $60$ triangles ($50$ with the third vertex on the second line and $10$ with the third vertex on the non-collinear point).
Now consider the triangles with two vertices on the second line. By the symmetry of the problem, these are $60$ as well.
Finally, consider the triangles that do not have two vertices on the same line. These triangles clearly have one vertex on the first line, one vertex on the second line, and the third one on the non-collinear point. Because we can chose any of the $5$ points on each line, the number of these triangles is $5^2=25$.

Circle vs Ellipse: Difference and Comparison
Geometry has become extensively important in terms of understanding mathematical figures and structures. Geometry has various kinds of shapes and figures that are studied to solve complex mathematical problems.
It is highly important to understand and study these figures properly to be able to do mathematical problems related to geometry, including shapes and figures.
Key Takeaways
A circle is a two-dimensional shape with all points on its boundary equidistant from its center. At the same time, an ellipse is a two-dimensional shape with two axes of symmetry and varying distances from its center.
Circles are symmetrical and have a constant radius, while ellipses have two different radii and are asymmetrical.
Circles are used in many applications, including geometry, engineering, and art, while ellipses are used in architecture, design, and astronomy.
Circle vs Ellipse
A circle is a geometric shape with all points lying at an equal distance from its centre, while an ellipse has two focal points and a more elongated form. The shape of an ellipse depends on the distance between its focal points, making it more versatile than a circle in various mathematical applications.
The circle is a geometrical figure which is used to solve problems in mathematics related to geometry. The circle is unique from other geometrical figures as it has the same distance from its centre to any particular point made at the circumference of the circle.
There can be found plenty of examples of circular figures in daily life, such as wheels or bottle caps and so many other instances.

What is Circle?
A circle is a geometrical figure which is more of a round figure shape and is used to solve mathematical equations and problems. It is one of the most common and extensively used mathematical figures, which has its function in geometry.
A circle has a unique feature in that all the points in the circumference of a circle are at an equal distance to the centre. A circle is mostly classified by its shape and the distance from the centre.
The study of geometrical figures has helped over the development of maths and science over time, and the circle is one of such important figures among the others that has also contributed to the study of mathematics.
A circle also has a definite formula to find its radius and other components that are important for the study of geometry. There are multiple examples of circular figures or objects, even in real life, other than mathematical figures.
The main principle with which the formation of a circle works is used in the process of creating circular objects in reality.
These applications and principles are used in mathematics and real life to process these figures, such as the making of wheels in human life.
What is Ellipse?
An ellipse is a geometrical figure that is a curve line drawn in such a manner above a plane line both ways to give it such a flattened circular shape. It is used to solve mathematical equations or problems related to an ellipse.
An ellipse does not have the same distance with the points from that of its circumference to the centre.
The curve is drawn so that the sum of the distance from two different points, known as the foci, while taken from a moving point, is constant.
An ellipse can be made by a cut produced in a cone by an oblique plane without intersecting the base.
An ellipse may vary in shape and is not confined to a particular type of figure. It can be more or less flattened structure or even somewhat closer to the shape of a circle.
Unlike a circle, an ellipse does not have a fixed radius throughout the shape, and it keeps changing.
The most common real-life examples of an ellipse would be the orbits around which the planets are known to revolve around. The astronomical instances can be easily found in real life while studying an ellipse.
Main Differences Between Circle and Ellipse
A circle has the same distance from any point on the circumference to the centre. An ellipse does not have the same distance from any point to the centre.
A circle has a fixed shape of a figure even if the viewpoint is moved. In contrast, an ellipse may vary in shape depending on the distance from each focus.
A circle has a fixed radius that does not change its position. On the other hand, an ellipse does not have a fixed radius throughout the shape of an ellipse.
The radius of a circle is at the centre, but the two foci of an ellipse lie at either end of an ellipse.
A circle does not originate from the shape of an ellipse, whereas an ellipse may seem like a flattened circle detailed information about the applications and principles of circles and ellipses, as well as the comparison between them, demonstrates their significance and versatility in mathematics and real-life scenarios.
I find it extremely interesting how circles and ellipses are used in various fields such as geometry, engineering, and art. The detailed comparison table is very helpful in understanding the differences between both shapes.
The discussion on the applications and principles of circles and ellipses in mathematics and real life, such as creating circular objects, is enlightening. It provides a clear understanding of their role in various fields.
The detailed information about circles and ellipses, including their definition, components, and applications, provides a comprehensive understanding of these geometric figures and their importance in mathematics and real life. The study of the geometrical principles is truly fascinating.

What is the Hypotenuse of a Right Triangle?
"In the right triangle, hypotenuse is the longest side opposite to the right angle"
Other sides of the right angle triangle instead of the hypotenuse are known as legs or catheti.
Formulas for Hypotenuse:
There are different equations used by the hypotenuse leg calculator to find the length of the side that is opposite to the right angle (hypotenuse).
Condition 1 - Two side lengths are given:
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}\)
Condition 2 - Angle & length of one side is given:
If you have side 'a' and angle (α):
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \frac{a}{sin(α)}\)
If you have side 'b' and angle (β):
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \frac{b}{sin(β)}\)
Condition 3 - Area & one side length are given:
If you have area and side a:
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \sqrt{a^2 + \frac{area \times 2}{a^2}}\)
If you have area and b side:
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \sqrt{\frac{area \times 2}{b^2} + b^2}\) Apart from the longest length, the right triangle hypotenuse calculator also helps to find the other missing sides and area of the orthogonal triangle.
To calculate the length of side a:
\(\ a = \frac{area \times 2}{b}\)
To calculate the length of side b:
\(\ b = \frac{area \times 2}{a}\)
To calculate the area of a Triangle:
\(\ area = \frac{a \times b}{2}\)
How to Find the Hypotenuse of a Right Triangle?
To find the hypotenuse, squaring the lengths of two sides that are not hypotenuse (legs) and then take a square root.
Example # 1:
Let us suppose that there's a right triangle where one leg (a) is 3cm long and the other leg (b) is 4cm long. Find the length of the longest side of this triangle (c)
a = 3cm
b = 4cm
Calculations:
The formula used to find the hypotenuse is:
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}\)
Put the values into the formula:
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2}\)
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \sqrt{9 + 16}\)
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = \sqrt{25}\)
\(\ Hypotenuse (c) = {5cm}\)
Example # 2:
Suppose a crane is used to lift the steel beam at a peak of the building that is under construction. The base of crane is 40 feet from the building and the arm needs to reach 30 feet above the ground at an angle of 60°. What is the required length of the crane arm (hypotenuse)?
Given Values:
Base = 'a' = 40 ft
Angle = 'α' = 60°
Calculations:
As we know the length of one side and the angle, so we need to use the formula to find the hypotenuse:
\(\ c = \frac{a}{sin(α)}\)
Put the values into the formula:
\(\ c = \frac{40 ft}{sin (60)}\)
\(\ c = \frac{40 ft}{0.866}\)
\(\ c = 46.1 ft\)
The required crane arm length to reach the point at a 60-degree angle is approximately 46.1 feet. Calculating the hypotenuse manually involves different formulas.

Apply analytical methods to determine the magnitude and direction of a resultant vector.
Analytical methods of vector addition and subtraction employ geometry and simple trigonometry rather than the ruler and protractor of graphical methods. Part of the graphical technique is retained, because vectors are still represented by arrows for easy visualization. However, analytical methods are more concise, accurate, and precise than graphical methods, which are limited by the accuracy with which a drawing can be made. Analytical methods are limited only by the accuracy and precision with which physical quantities are known.
Resolving a Vector into Perpendicular Components
Analytical techniques and right triangles go hand-in-hand in physics because (among other things) motions along perpendicular directions are independent. We very often need to separate a vector into perpendicular components. For example, given a vector like \(\displaystyle A\) in Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\), we may wish to find which two perpendicular vectors, \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\), add to produce it.
Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\):The vector \(\displaystyle A\), with its tail at the origin of an x, y-coordinate system, is shown together with its x- and y-components, \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\). These vectors form a right triangle. The analytical relationships among these vectors are summarized below.
\(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\) are defined to be the components of \(\displaystyle A\) along the x- and y-axes. The three vectors \(\displaystyle A, A_x\), and \(\displaystyle A_y\) form a right triangle:
\[\displaystyle A_x + A_y = A.\]
Note that this relationship between vector components and the resultant vector holds only for vector quantities (which include both magnitude and direction). The relationship does not apply for the magnitudes alone. For example, if \(\displaystyle A_x=3 m\) east, \(\displaystyle A_y=4 m\) north, and \(\displaystyle A=5 m \)north-east, then it is true that the vectors \(\displaystyle A_x + A_y = A\). However, it is not true that the sum of the magnitudes of the vectors is also equal. That is,
\[\displaystyle 3 m+4 m ≠ 5 m\]
Thus,
\[\displaystyle A_x+A_y≠A\]
If the vector \(\displaystyle A\) is known, then its magnitude \(\displaystyle A\) (its length) and its angle \(\displaystyle θ\) (its direction) are known. To find \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\), its x- and y-components, we use the following relationships for a right triangle.
\[\displaystyle A_x=Acosθ\]
and
\[\displaystyle A_y=Asinθ.\]
Figure \(\PageIndex{2}\): The magnitudes of the vector components \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\) can be related to the resultant vector \(\displaystyle A\) and the angle \(\displaystyle θ\) with trigonometric identities. Here we see that \(\displaystyle A_x=Acosθ\) and \(\displaystyle A_y=Asinθ.\)
Suppose, for example, that A is the vector representing the total displacement of the person walking in a city considered in Kinematics in Two Dimensions: An Introduction and Vector Addition and Subtraction: Graphical Methods.
Figure \(\PageIndex{3}\): We can use the relationships \(\displaystyle A_x=Acosθ\) and \(\displaystyle A_y=Asinθ\) to determine the magnitude of the horizontal and vertical component vectors in this example.
Then \(\displaystyle A=10.3\) blocks and \(\displaystyle θ=29.1º\), so that
Calculating a Resultant Vector
If the perpendicular components \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\) of a vector \(\displaystyle A\) are known, then A can also be found analytically. To find the magnitude \(\displaystyle A\) and direction \(\displaystyle θ\) of a vector from its perpendicular components \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\), we use the following relationships:
\[\displaystyle A=\sqrt{A_{x^2}+A_{y^2}}\]
\[\displaystyle θ=tan^{−1}(A_y/A_x)\]
Figure \(\PageIndex{4}\): The magnitude and direction of the resultant vector can be determined once the horizontal and vertical components \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\) have been determined.
Note that the equation \(\displaystyle A=\sqrt{A^2_x+A^2_y}\) is just the Pythagorean theorem relating the legs of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse. For example, if \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\) are 9 and 5 blocks, respectively, then \(\displaystyle A=\sqrt{9^2+5^2}=10.3\) blocks, again consistent with the example of the person walking in a city. Finally, the direction is \(\displaystyle θ=tan^{–1}(5/9)=29.1º\), as before.
DETERMINING VECTORS AND VECTOR COMPONENTS WITH ANALYTICAL METHODS
Equations \(\displaystyle A_x=Acosθ\) and \(\displaystyle A_y=Asinθ\) are used to find the perpendicular components of a vector—that is, to go from \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle θ\) to \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\). Equations \(\displaystyle A=\sqrt{A^2_x+A^2_y}\) and \(\displaystyle θ=tan^{–1}(A_y/A_x)\) are used to find a vector from its perpendicular components—that is, to go from \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle A_y\) to \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle θ\). Both processes are crucial to analytical methods of vector addition and subtraction.
Adding Vectors Using Analytical Methods
To see how to add vectors using perpendicular components, consider Figure \(\PageIndex{5}\), in which the vectors \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle B\) are added to produce the resultant \(\displaystyle R\).
Figure \(\PageIndex{5}\): Vectors \(\displaystyle A\) and\(\displaystyle B\) are two legs of a walk, and \(\displaystyle R\) is the resultant or total displacement. You can use analytical methods to determine the magnitude and direction of \(\displaystyle R\).
If \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle B\) represent two legs of a walk (two displacements), then \(\displaystyle R\) is the total displacement. The person taking the walk ends up at the tip of R. There are many ways to arrive at the same point. In particular, the person could have walked first in the x-direction and then in the y-direction. Those paths are the x- and y-components of the resultant, \(\displaystyle R_x\) and \(\displaystyle R_y\). If we know \(\displaystyle R_x\) and \(\displaystyle R_y\), we can find \(\displaystyle R\) and \(\displaystyle θ\) using the equations \(\displaystyle A=\sqrt{A_x^2+A_y^2}\) and \(\displaystyle θ=tan^{–1}(A_y/A_x)\). \(\displaystyle A_x=Acosθ\) and \(\displaystyle A_y=Asinθ\) to find the components. In Figure, these components are \(\displaystyle A_x, A_y, B_x\), and \(\displaystyle B_y\). The angles that vectors \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle B\) make with the x-axis are \(\displaystyle θ_A\) and \(\displaystyle θ_B\), respectively.
Figure \(\PageIndex{6}\): To add vectors \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle B\), first determine the horizontal and vertical components of each vector. These are the dotted vectors \(\displaystyle A_x, A_y, B_x\) and \(\displaystyle B-y\) shown in the image.
Step 2. Find the components of the resultant along each axis by adding the components of the individual vectors along that axis. That is, as shown in Figure \(\PageIndex{7}\,
\[\displaystyle R_x=A_x+B_x\]
and
\[\displaystyle R_y=A_y+B_y.\]
Figure \(\PageIndex{7}\): The magnitude of the vectors \(\displaystyle A_x\) and \(\displaystyle B_x\) add to give the magnitude \(\displaystyle R_x\) of the resultant vector in the horizontal direction. Similarly, the magnitudes of the vectors \(\displaystyle A_y\) and \(\displaystyle B_y\) add to give the magnitude \(\displaystyle R_y\)axis R are known, its magnitude and direction can be found.
Step 3. To get the magnitude \(\displaystyle R\) of the resultant, use the Pythagorean theorem:
\[\displaystyle R=\sqrt{R^2_x+R^2_y}\]
Step 4. To get the direction of the resultant:
\[\displaystyle θ=tan^{−1}(R_y/R_x)\]
The following example illustrates this technique for adding vectors using perpendicular components.
Add the vector \(\displaystyle A\) to the vector \(\displaystyle B\) shown in Figure, using perpendicular components along the x- and y-axes. The x- and y-axes are along the east–west and north–south directions, respectively. Vector \(\displaystyle A\) represents the first leg of a walk in which a person walks \(\displaystyle 53.0 m\) in a direction \(\displaystyle 20.0º\) north of east. Vector \(\displaystyle B\) represents the second leg, a displacement of \(\displaystyle 34.0 m\) in a direction \(\displaystyle 63.0º\) north of east.
Figure \(\PageIndex{8}\): Vector \(\displaystyle A\) has magnitude \(\displaystyle 53.0 m\) and direction \(\displaystyle 20.0º\) north of the x-axis. Vector B has magnitude \(\displaystyle 34.0 m\) and direction \(\displaystyle 63.0º\) north of the x-axis. You can use analytical methods to determine the magnitude and direction of \(\displaystyle R\).
Strategy
The components of \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle B\) along the x- and y-axes represent walking due east and due north to get to the same ending point. Once found, they are combined to produce the resultant.
Solution
Following the method outlined above, we first find the components of \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle B\) along the x- and y-axes. Note that \(\displaystyle A=53.0 m, θ_A=20.0º, B=34.0 m,\) and \(\displaystyle θ_B=63.0º\). We find the x-components by using \(\displaystyle A_x=Acosθ\), which gives
Now we can find the magnitude of the resultant by using the Pythagorean theorem:
\[\displaystyle R=\sqrt{R^2_x+R^2_y}=\sqrt{(65.2)^2+(48.4)^2m}\]
so that
\[\displaystyle R=81.2 m.\]
Finally, we find the direction of the resultant:
\[\displaystyle θ=tan^{−1}(R_y/R_x)=+tan^{−1}(48.4/65.2).\]
Thus,
\[\displaystyle θ=tan^{−1}(0.742)=36.6º.\]
Figure \(\PageIndex{9}\): Using analytical methods, we see that the magnitude of \(\displaystyle R\) is \(\displaystyle 81.2 m\) and its direction is \(\displaystyle 36.6º\) \(\displaystyle A−B≡A+(–B)\). Thus, the method for the subtraction of vectors using perpendicular components is identical to that for addition. The components of \(\displaystyle –B\) are the negatives of the components of \(\displaystyle B\). The x- and y-components of the resultant \(\displaystyle A−B = R\) are thus
\[\displaystyle R_x=A_x+(–B_x)\]
and
\[\displaystyle R_y=A_y+(–B_y)\]
and the rest of the method outlined above is identical to that for addition. (See Figure \(\PageIndex{10}\).)
Analyzing vectors using perpendicular components is very useful in many areas of physics, because perpendicular quantities are often independent of one another. The next module, Projectile Motion, is one of many in which using perpendicular components helps make the picture clear and simplifies the physics.
Figure \(\PageIndex{10}\). The components of \(\displaystyle –B\) are the negatives of the components of \(\displaystyle B\). \(\displaystyle A\) and \(\displaystyle B\) using the analytical method are as follows:
Step 1: Determine the coordinate system for the vectors. Then, determine the horizontal and vertical components of each vector using the equations
\(\displaystyle A_x=Acosθ\)
\(\displaystyle B_x=Bcosθ\)
and
\(\displaystyle A_y=Asinθ\)
\(\displaystyle B_y=Bsinθ.\)
Step 2: Add the horizontal and vertical components of each vector to determine the components Rx and Ry of the resultant vector, R:
\(\displaystyle R_x=A_x+B_x\)
and
\(\displaystyle R_y=A_y+B_y\).
Step 3: Use the Pythagorean theorem to determine the magnitude, R, of the resultant vector R:
\(\displaystyle R=\sqrt{R^2_x+R^2_y}\).
Step 4: Use a trigonometric identity to determine the direction, \(\displaystyle θ\), of R:
\(\displaystyle θ=tan^{−1}(R_y/R_x)\).

Mastering The Properties And Examples Of Acute Triangles
Acute triangle
A triangle with 3 acute angles
An acute triangle is a type of triangle in which all three angles are acute angles, i.e. they are less than 90 degrees. In other words, an acute triangle is a triangle in which all sides are less than half the length of the diameter of the circumcircle.
Some important properties of an acute triangle are:
– Since all three angles are acute, there is no obtuse angle or right angle in the triangle.
– The sum of all three angles in an acute triangle is always less than 180 degrees.
– The altitude (i.e. perpendicular height) drawn from any vertex of the triangle will lie within the triangle itself.
– An acute triangle is always a scalene triangle, i.e. all three sides are of different lengths.
– The circumcenter (i.e. center of the circumcircle) of an acute triangle lies inside the triangle.
Examples of acute triangles include an equilateral triangle, an isosceles triangle with acute base angles, and a scalene triangle with all angles acute

How many triangles can be formed for a triangle 𝐴𝐵𝐶 with 𝑏 equal to five centimetres, 𝑎 equal to two centimeters, and the measure of angle 𝐴 equal to 155 degrees? Is it (A) zero triangles, (B) one triangle, (C) two triangles, (D) three triangles, or (E) an infinite number of triangles?
Let's begin by trying to sketch triangle 𝐴𝐵𝐶. We are told that the measure of angle 𝐴 is 155 degrees. This is an obtuse angle, since it lies between 90 and 180 degrees. We are told that side length 𝑎 is equal to two centimeters, and this must be opposite the 155-degree angle. We are also told that one of the other side lengths 𝑏 is equal to five centimeters. Looking at our triangle, this doesn't appear to be possible as the five-centimeter side looks significantly shorter than the two-centimeter side. This is backed up by the fact that the longest side of any triangle will be opposite the largest angle.
Since angles in a triangle sum to 180 degrees, angle 𝐵 must be less than 25 degrees and is therefore smaller than angle 𝐴. As a result, side length 𝑏 would need to be smaller than side length 𝑎, and this is not the case. All of our working so far suggests that there are no triangles that can be formed from the information given. This can be more formally stated as follows. If angle 𝐴 is obtuse and side length 𝑎 is less than or equal to side length 𝑏, then no triangles exist. We can therefore conclude that the correct answer is option (A), zero triangles.

polygon
A polygon is a closed two-dimensional shape with straight sides
A polygon is a closed two-dimensional shape with straight sides. It is formed by connecting line segments, also known as sides, that intersect only at their endpoints, known as vertices. The word "polygon" is derived from the Greek words "poly," meaning many, and "gonia," meaning angles.
There are various types of polygons, including triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and so on, depending on the number of sides they have. Each side of a polygon is a line segment, and each vertex is a point where two neighboring sides intersect. The angles formed at the vertices of a polygon are known as interior angles.
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon depends on the number of sides it has. For example, in a triangle, the sum of the interior angles is always 180 degrees. In a quadrilateral, the sum of the interior angles is 360 degrees. The formula to find the sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is given by:
Sum of interior angles = (n – 2) * 180 degrees
Polygons can be classified based on their characteristics. Regular polygons have equal side lengths and equal interior angles. Irregular polygons have sides and angles that are not equal. Convex polygons are those in which no interior angles are greater than 180 degrees, whereas concave polygons have at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees.
Polygons play a crucial role in various areas of mathematics, such as geometry and trigonometry. They are used to solve problems related to shape properties, area, perimeter, and

Is it for 9 to mrs side A. c 6.43. So first let's use the love course Science. The Last four Saints. So I can see be square is nothing but you're square less C square minus to a C casa B.
Substitute The square is eight 92 square. Let's see squares six point 43 square minus two times 8.92, multiplied by 6.43 into costs off 74.8. It is substitute the values Since 8.92 square 6.43 square is 1 20 point 91 This is cause off 74.8 is With multiplication two and 8.9 26.43 is 30 08 So this value comes out as 90.83. So length B will be nothing but square root of 90.83 and squared off 90.83 years 9.53. The units to be used this inch because A and C.
Are also an inch. Now. The latest use The Law of Saints. You just underlined this. Alright, Law Science.
Sign of mm divided by A. Should be equal to sign off. Be directed by B. From here. Sign off A should be equal to Smalley.
It is 8.92, multiplied by sign of 74.8 divided by Side B, which is nine 53 This value comes out as 0.90 So let us figure out the angle and he will be signing words of 0.9 and Simon was of And words of .9 comes out as 64.16°.. The angle has to be less than angle B. So we will not take the other part of it. So and A Is 64.16. Now the easiest way to figure out angle see will be Using the fact that all the angles of a triangle some is 1 80°..
So this minus 64.16. Last Angle B is 74.8. It was good. This value comes out as 41.04°.. That's all we have, the two handles and signs..

In this problem, I want to see if this triangle is possible with the given information. I'm going to start with finding angle, be using law of sines so I set up my proportion and it's equal to sign of B Over 6.18 when I cross multiply and solve for sign of B. I get 6.18 sign of 21.3, Divided by 6.03, Which is approximately 0.4. When I type it in the calculator, then I do the inverse sine of that answer to get B is approximately 21.9°.. Now, this is just the first option for be.
The second option for b requires me to do 180 -219. So it's going to be approximately 158 0.1 degrees. Tell me to start with my first option here. I've got my triangle A. B C A is 21.3 and B is 21.9 to find.
To see. I'm gonna subtract those from 1 80 I get 100 and 36.8 degrees. This side is still 6.18 and this side is still 6.03 I want to find side to see. So I'm using my vault signs again Over 6.03 Equals sign of 1 36 8 Over. See when I cross multiply and solve for C.
I get 6.03 Sign of 1 36 8 over The sign of 21.3. And this is approximately 11 point 36 So this first triangle has a B angle, that's 21.9° AC Angle, that's 136.8° and side to see that's approximately 11.36. Now, we're gonna look at option two, I've still got A. B and C. A.
Is still 21.3 But now be is 151 point or 158.1. When I subtract us from 180 I get a very tiny angle of 0.6°.. This side is still 6.18 and 6.03. I want to find side see I'm gonna use my law of signs to do this. The sequel to the sine of 0.6 oversee When I cross multiply and solve for c.
I get 6.03 sine of 0.6 Divided by the sine of 21.3 and when I calculate this And is approximately 0.17. So my second option here is a B angle of 158.1°, AC angle of .6° and a side sea of .17.

How do you convert complex numbers from polar to Cartesian form?
How do you convert complex numbers from polar to Cartesian form?
It should be relatively easy to see that, if a complex number z has magnitude r and argument θ, then: z=r(cosθ+isinθ) This is called the polar form of a complex number. Thus, if you want to convert from polar form to rectangular form, remember that Re(z)=rcosθ and Im(z)=rsinθ.
What is Cartesian form?
The standard form of a line in the Cartesian plane is given by. for real numbers . This form can be derived from any of the other forms (point-slope form, slope-intercept form, etc.), but can be seen most intuitively when starting from intercept form.
What is the Cartesian form?
Is Cartesian form the same as polar form?
This leads to an important difference between Cartesian coordinates and polar coordinates. In Cartesian coordinates there is exactly one set of coordinates for any given point. With polar coordinates this isn't true. In polar coordinates there is literally an infinite number of coordinates for a given point.
What is Cartesian form in vectors?
The Cartesian coordinate system is defined by unit vectors ^i and ^j along the x-axis and the y-axis, respectively. The polar coordinate system is defined by the radial unit vector ^r , which gives the direction from the origin, and a unit vector ^t , which is perpendicular (orthogonal) to the radial direction.
Is Cartesian form rectangular?
Cartesian form and rectangular form are two different names for the same system. A complex number "z = a + bi" form is called cartesian form or rectangular form. Read more: What is Cartesian Coordinate System?
A complex number is a number with a real and an imaginary part, usually expressed in cartesian form. a + jb = + j. Complex numbers can also be expressed in polar form.
What is a rectangular complex number?
Rectangular Form of a Complex Number. Rectangular form, on the other hand, is where a complex number is denoted by its respective horizontal and vertical components. In essence, the angled vector is taken to be the hypotenuse of a right triangle, described by the lengths of the adjacent and opposite sides.
What is a polar complex number?
Polar Form of a Complex Number. The polar form of a complex number is another way to represent a complex number. The form z = a + b i is called the rectangular coordinate form of a complex number. The horizontal axis is the real axis and the vertical axis is the imaginary axis.
What is the definition of complex numbers?
Complex number. A complex number is a number that can be expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers and i is the imaginary unit, where i² = −1. In this expression, a is the real part and b is the imaginary part of the complex number.

What line cuts the Earth in half vertically? The Equator, or line of 0 degrees latitude, divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Why Greenwich was chosen as the prime meridian? Why does the Prime Meridian run through Greenwich?
What are the imaginary lines that run around the Earth?
Longitude is measured by imaginary lines that run around the Earth vertically (up and down) and meet at the North and South Poles. These lines are known as meridians. Each meridian measures one arcdegree of longitude. What is the line that divides the earth in half horizontally?
Why do we call imaginary lines latitude and longitude?
What are the two types of imaginary lines Why do we call them imaginary lines? These lines are called latitude and longitude lines. The imaginary lines circling the globe in an east-west direction are called the lines of latitude (or parallels, as they are parallel to the equator). They are used to measure distances north and south of the equator.
What are two lines that meet at the North Pole?
What 2 lines meet at the North Pole? Longitude is measured by imaginary lines that run around the Earth vertically (up and down) and meet at the North and South Poles. These lines are known as meridians. Each meridian measures one arcdegree of longitude

2.8 The angles of a triangle
The sum of the angles of any triangle is 180°. This property can be demonstrated in several ways. One way is to draw a triangle on a piece of paper, mark each angle with a different symbol, and then cut out the angles and arrange them side by side, touching one another as illustrated.
You can see why it is that the angles fit together in this way by looking at the triangle below. An extra line has been added parallel to the base. The angle of the triangle, , is equal to the angle β at the top (they are alternate angles), and similarly the angle of the triangle, , is equal to the angle γ at the top (they are also alternate angles). The three angles at the top (β, γ and the angle of the triangle, ) form a straight line of total angle 180°, and so the angles of the triangle must also add up to 180°.
The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180°.
The fact that the angles of a triangle add up to 180° is another angle property that enables you to find unknown angles.
Example 7
Find α, β and θ in the diagram below.
Answer
First, look at the angles of ΔABD: and
Then, by the angle sum property of triangles,
So
and
As CDB is a straight line and α = 60°, it follows that
Now consider the angles of ΔADC: and
Therefore
So
(Check for yourself that the angles of ΔABC also add up to 180°.)
It is possible to deduce more information about the angles in certain special kinds of triangles.
In a right-angled triangle, since one angle is a right angle (90°), the other two angles must add up to 90°. Thus, in the example below, α + β = 90°.
In an equilateral triangle, all the angles are the same size. So each angle of an equilateral triangle must be 180° ÷ 3 = 60°.
In an isosceles triangle, two sides are of equal length and the angles opposite those sides are equal. Therefore, α = β in the triangle below.
Such angles are often called base angles.
This means that there are only two different sizes of angle in an isosceles triangle: if the size of one angle is known, the sizes of the other two angles can easily be found. The next example shows how this is done.
Example 8
Find the unknown angles in these isosceles triangles, which represent parts of the roof supports of a house.
Answer
(a) As α and 50° are the base angles, α = 50°. By the angle sum property of triangles,
therefore
(b) As γ and δ are the base angles, γ = δ. In this triangle,
therefore
The various angle properties can also be used to find the sum of the angles of a quadrilateral.
Example 9
The diagram below represents the four stages of a walk drawn on an Ordnance Survey map.
The figure ABCD is a quadrilateral. Find θ and φ, and thus the sum of all the angles of the quadrilateral.
Answer
From ΔABC,
From ΔACD,
Then the sum of all the angles of the quadrilateral is
In fact, you can find the sum of the four angles of a quadrilateral without calculating each angle as in Example 9. Look again at the quadrilateral: the dotted line splits it into two triangles, and the angles of these triangles together make up the angles of the quadrilateral. Each triangle has an angle sum of 180°, so the angle sum of the quadrilateral is 2 × 180° = 360°. This is true for any quadrilateral.
The sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
Similarly, other polygons (that is, other shapes with straight sides) can be divided into triangles to find the sum of their angles

Determine the measure of the acute angle between the two straight lines 𝐿 sub one 𝐫 is equal to the vector negative four, negative three plus 𝐾 times the vector four, negative nine and 𝐿 sub two seven 𝑥 minus three 𝑦 plus 17 is equal to zero to the nearest second.
In this question, we're asked to determine the measure of the acute angle between two straight lines, and we're given the equations of these straight lines. One's given in vector form and one's given in general form. We need to find this measure to the nearest second. To do this, we can start by recalling how we find the measure of the acute angle between two given straight lines. We know if two straight lines 𝐿 sub one and 𝐿 sub two have slopes of 𝑚 sub one and 𝑚 sub two, then the acute angle 𝜃 between the two lines will satisfy the equation tan of 𝜃 is equal to the absolute value of 𝑚 sub one minus 𝑚 sub two divided by one plus 𝑚 sub one times 𝑚 sub two.
And there's a few things worth noting about this equation. For example, if our two lines are parallel and not vertical, then the slopes will be equal. So 𝑚 sub one will be equal to 𝑚 sub two. So the numerator of the right-hand side of this equation is zero. This then gives us tan of 𝜃 is zero, so 𝜃 is zero. Similarly, if the two lines are perpendicular, then we can have that 𝑚 sub one times 𝑚 sub two is negative one, once again, provided neither line is vertical. This then means tan 𝜃 is undefined, so 𝜃 is 90 degrees. Finally, we can only apply this formula if neither of our lines are vertical. So let's start by finding the slopes of the two lines.
So we'll start by finding the slope of line 𝐿 sub one. To do this, we recall we can find the slope of a vector equation of a line of the form 𝐫 is equal to 𝐫 sub zero plus 𝐾 times the vector 𝑎, 𝑏 by just finding 𝑏 divided by 𝑎. And this is provided that 𝑎 is nonzero. And applying this result to the equation of 𝐿 sub one, we get that 𝑚 sub one is equal to negative nine divided by four. And it's worth noting we could've found this directly from the equation of the line. Its direction vector is four, negative nine. So for every four units we move to the right, the line moves nine units down. Its change in 𝑦 over its change in 𝑥 is negative nine over four.
To determine the equation of our second line, we'll write it in slope–intercept form. We'll start by adding three 𝑦 to both sides of the equation. This gives us that seven 𝑥 plus 17 is equal to three 𝑦. Now we'll divide the equation through by three. This gives us that seven over three 𝑥 plus 17 over three is equal to 𝑦. And we know the coefficient of 𝑥 is the slope of the line. So our value of 𝑚 sub two is seven over three.
Now that we found the slopes of both of these lines, we can substitute these values into our equation. Doing this gives us the tan of 𝜃 is equal to the absolute value of negative nine over four minus seven over three divided by one plus negative nine over four multiplied by seven over three. And if we evaluate the right-hand side of this equation, we get 55 over 51, which must be equal to the tan of 𝜃. We can then solve for the value of 𝜃 in degrees by taking the inverse tangent to both sides of the equation. Well, we need to make sure our calculator is set to degrees mode.
This gives us that 𝜃 is equal to 47.161 and this expansion continues degrees. And we could stop here, but the question wants us to give our answer to the nearest second. So we're going to need to convert this into degrees, minutes, and seconds. To do this, we'll start by recalling there's 60 minutes in a degree and 60 seconds in a minute. And we can already see there are 47 degrees in our answer, so we'll take these out. This then leaves us with 0.161 and this expansion continues degrees. And if we multiply this value by 60, we'll get the remaining angle in minutes. Calculating this expression, where we need to be careful to use the exact value of our angle, we get 9.664 and this expansion continues minutes.
We can apply this process again. We can see that there are nine full minutes in this angle. This then leaves us with the remaining angle of 0.664 and this expansion continues minutes. If we multiply this value by 60, we'll get the remaining angle in seconds. Calculating this, where once again we need to make sure we're using the exact value, gives us 39.886 and this expansion continues seconds. Remember, the question wants us to give our answer to the nearest second. So we need to look at the first decimal digit, which is eight, which tells us we need to round this value up. So we round this up to 40 seconds, giving us our final answer of 47 degrees, nine minutes, and 40 seconds.
Therefore, we were able to show the measure of the acute angle to the nearest second between the two lines 𝐫 is equal to the vector negative four, negative three plus 𝐾 times the vector four, negative nine and the line seven 𝑥 minus three 𝑦 plus 17 is equal to zero is 47 degrees, nine minutes, and 40 seconds.

the seven types of convex hexahedra
Each drawing provides a link to a popup applet.
The faces of a convex hexahedron cannot have more than five sides; thus they are triangles, quadrilaterals or pentagons (no more than two).
We know three classic types of hexahedra: the cobblestones (six quadrilaterals), the pyramids with pentagonal base and the diamonds (six triangles).
To discover the others we have to tire ourselves a little and to proceed with method:
• list the possible combinations of faces,
• eliminate those which are obviously impossible (one edge is the assembling of two sides of two faces, thus the total number s of sides must be even),
• compute the numbers of edges (e=s/2) and of vertices (Euler formula v=e-4) for the others,
• at last, draw the polyhedron... or prove that it don't exists... This is not always simple!
The cube is a representative of the last of these hexahedra; we can construct a representative of each of the six others from the cube using at most three cuttings. Try to draw them before to look at the answer.
The parallelepipeds are cobblestones whose opposite faces are parallel, therefore parallelograms. They fill the space.
The rectangular parallelepipeds have rectangular faces; the cube is a particular one (square faces).
The rhombohedra are parallelepipeds whose faces are identical rhombuses; we obtain them by distorting a cube along one of its diagonals.

rectangular parallelepiped
rhombohedra (animations)
If we twist a rhombohedron around its axis, we get a family of curious equifacial cobblestones; without plane of symmetry, they exist in two mirror images forms (depending on the direction of the rotation). They are the duals of triangular antiprisms which have been stretched or compressed and then twisted (along and around their axis).

Principle of two theodolite method
Mathematical explanation
Suppose, two tangent points are marked on the ground such that T1 is the point of commencement and T2 be the point of tangency. Let, I be their point of intersection and O is the center of the simple circular curve as shown in the figure:
Let, T1 a be the first sub-chord of length C1 and δ1 be its deflection angle. As we know from the properties of the circle:
Now, set the next deflection angle δ2 on vernier A of both the instruments. Again, locate a point P2, such that the lines of sight of both instruments intersect at it, hence, P2 is the next point on the curve.
Continue this procedure till all the deflection angles are set out and all the points are marked on the ground.
Set out the total deflection angle δn on both the theodolites such that the line of sight at T1 should bisect T2 and the line of sight of theodolite at T2 should bisect the point B.

18.1.2: TRIANGLES General A triangle has three angles, or vertices, and three sides. Each vertex of the triangle is named using capital letters: A, B, C, etc. The angle-sum of a triangle is 180°. That is, the sum of the 3 angles of the triangle is 180°. The longest side of the triangle is always opposite the largest angle of the triangle; the shortest side is opposite the smallest angle. Example 1:
The Components of a Triangle Median: A line from the vertex of an angle to the midpoint of the opposite side.
AD is a median of ∆ABC.
Altitude: A line from the vertex of an angle perpendicular to the opposite side.
Angle Bisector: A line from the vertex of an angle to the opposite side which bisects that angle.

Naming the Sides and Angles of a Triangle Angles: There are three common systems of naming the angles of a triangle:
A
1. Using the vertices, with the vertex of the angle in the center.
α
2. Using a number or letter (often a Greek letter) inside the angle. 3. According to the vertex of the triangle at that angle. In the diagram the angle at the vertex A can be called ∠BAC, ∠ α, or ∠ A.
C B
Sides: There are two common ways to name the sides of a triangle: 1. According to two vertices it connects. The sides of ∆ABC (diagram above) are AB, BC and AC. 2. According to the vertex of the angle opposite the side. Each side of the triangle is named using the lower case letter corresponding to the letter of the vertex of the triangle opposite that side. B c
a
In the triangle ∆ABC the vertices of the triangle are A, B, and C and the sides of this triangle must be a, b, and c, such that: The side opposite the vertex A is called a. The side opposite the vertex B is called b. The side opposite the vertex C is called c.
A b
C We often use this second method in trigonometry because the name of each side of a triangle indicates its specific relationship to the angles of the triangle.

Right Triangle: One angle of the triangle a right angle.
The other two angles of the triangle are acute and complementary. The side of the triangle opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse. The other sides are called the legs of the triangle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side of the triangle. Pythagoras' Theorem states the important relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right triangle.

Isosceles Triangle: A triangle with two sides of equal length.
Properties: ; The angles opposite to the equal sides are congruent. ; The third (unequal) angle of the triangle is called the apex. A line from the apex to the midpoint of the opposite side of the triangle bisects the apex angle from which it passes and is perpendicular to the opposite side. Any altitude of the triangle from the apex to the base is also a median and an angle bisector.

Similar Triangles
Two triangles are similar if their angles are equal. The three corresponding pairs of sides are then in fixed proportion. Example 3:
The triangles ∆DEF and ∆ZXY are similar, written ∆ABC ≈ ∆ZXY, since ∠ D = ∠ Z, ∠ F = ∠ Y, then (using the angle sum of the triangle) we must have ∠ E = 50° = ∠ X. So three corresponding angles are equal.
If CD is a altitude of ∆ABC (see diagram) find x. By the above theorem, the three right triangles formed by the altitude CD are similar. So BD CD = CD AD

There are a number of different proofs of Pythagoras' Theorem. The proof given below depends upon the theory of similar right triangles. Proof of Pythagoras' Theorem:
C
In a right triangle ∆ABC the line CD is an altitude from the right angle ∠ACB to the hypotenuse AB. By the theorem above, the three right triangles formed, ∆ABC, ∆ADC, and ∆BCD are similar and the sides are in fixed proportion.

Using Pythagoras' Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse, c: Example 2:
Solution:
Find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle ∆ABC if the two legs of the triangle are 6 and 8 units in length. Applying Pythagoras' Theorem: a2 + b2 = c 2
Using Pythagoras' Theorem in Solving Applications with Right Triangles: Example 5: Solution:
The diagonal of a cube is 2 3 units. Find its side length. Let the sides of the cube be x units in length. First consider the right triangle ∆BCD: x 2 + x 2 = BC 2

The ladder reaches 11.8 ft up the wall.
Special Triangles. The Isosceles Right Triangle: 45°- 45°- 90°
Consider a right isosceles triangle, with two equal sides of length 1 unit . Since the equal angles sum to 90°, they are both 45°.

Page 14
Since any isosceles right triangle must have angles of 45°- 45°- 90° it will be similar to this triangle and will therefore have sides in the same fixed ratio. This leads us to the following theorem: The sides of any isosceles right triangle are in the fixed ratio of 1 : 1 : 2 . That is, in any isosceles right triangle the hypotenuse is of the legs of the triangle.

Furthermore, any right triangle with one angle of either 30° or 60° will be similar to the above and will therefore have sides in the same fixed ratio. This leads us to the following theorem: In any 30o - 60o - 90o triangle the ratio of the leg opposite the 30° angle to the leg opposite the 60° angle to the hypotenuse is 1 : 3 : 2 Chapter 1: Geometry Review
Since the hypotenuse of the triangle is twice the length of the side opposite the 30° angle, then c 2 = a 1 c

Example 12:
Solution:
A cell tower has a guy wire attached to the top of it which makes a 60° angle with the ground. If the wire is anchored 30 meters from the base of the tower, how tall is the tower to the nearest tenth of a meter? Let the cell tower be x meters in height. Since the tower, ground and wire form a 30o - 60o - 90o triangle, the ratio of the sides is such that: the side opposite the 60o angle o

then: x 3 = 30 1 x = 30 3 ≈ 51.96
Therefore the tower is approximately 52.0 meters tall.

Properties of 3D Figures
Now that you have seen the video about the Platonic Solids, let's investigate three-dimensional figures in more detail. These figures have certain properties that can be analyzed and categorized.
This is a cube. It is a Platonic Solid, also known as a hexahedron.
The surface of the cube is made up of six faces. Each of the
Where the faces intersect is known as an edge. A cube has twelve edges. Do you see the twelve edges of this cube?
The corners of a three-dimensional figure are known as vertices. A single corner is called a vertex. A cube has eight vertices. Do you see the eight vertices of this cube?
Different three-dimensional figures have different numbers of faces, edges, and vertices. Here is a square pyramid. Do you see the square base of this pyramid? Do you see the four triangular faces?
The square pyramid has 4 faces, 8 edges, and 5 vertices.
Here is an octahedron, which is another of the Platonic solids. The octahedron is like two square pyramids attached at the base.
A square pyramid has 8 faces, 12 edges, and 6 vertices.

Using Nets to Understand 3D Figures
What Is a Net?
Now that you have seen these different three-dimensional figures, did you notice many of them had two-dimensional faces? For example, a cube has eight square faces, while a cylinder has two circular sides.
Many three-dimensional figures consist of two-dimensional part. In fact, with many 3D figures, we can break them down into 2D components. This can be done by using a net.
A net is a two-dimensional version of a three-dimensional figure. A printed net can be used to build the 3D model. Here are some examples of nets.
This is the net for a cube. Since each face of the cube is a square, the net for a cube consists of a series of squares that fold into a cube.
This is the net for a triangular prism. Notice how the two triangular faces and the rectangular faces connect. This net will fold into a triangular prism.
This is the net for a square pyramid. Notice how the square base connects with the four triangular bases. This net will fold into a pyramid.
Even circular figures can be modeled with a net. Here is the net for a cylinder. Notice how the circular the circular sides of the cylinder align with the rectangular side.

HarmonicQuadrilaterals
gives the three harmonic quadrilaterals corresponding to the triangle with corner points p1,p2, and p3.
Details
A harmonic quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrangle in which the products of the lengths of opposite sides are equal.
Harmonic quadrilateral is closely related to pole/polar line, symmedian and other important concepts in projective and inversion geometry.
HarmonicQuadrilaterals effectively uses TriangleConstruct and reflects one vertex of the triangle with respect to the projection of the circumcenter on the symmedian cevian. This gurantees that the final polygon is always convex, given a proper ordering of the new point and that of the random triangle.
ResourceFunction["HarmonicQuadrilaterals"][Triangle[{p1,p2,p3}]] is equivalent to ResourceFunction["HarmonicQuadrilaterals"][{p1,p2,p3}].
Basic Examples (3)
Scope (2)
Some spiral similar triangles pairs (marked as red and blue) can be found by halving the diagonal or the extension of a side:
In[6]:=
Take the midpoint of one diagonal:
In[7]:=
Out[8]=
In[9]:=
Out[9]=
In[10]:=
Out[10]=
Double the length of one side:
In[11]:=
Out[11]=
A harmonic quadrilateral can also be constructed with GeometricScene by equating the product of the lengths of opposite sides:
In[12]:=
Out[12]=
Neat Examples (3)
The vertices of a harmonic quadrilateral are inverse to some squares and vice versa. To find a proper inversion center, use the intersection of the orthogonal circles passing through the vertices of each diagonal:
In[13]:=
The intersections of the two solid orthogonal circles are the proper inversion centers:
In[14]:=
Out[14]=
Either one can be chosen as the inversion center. The gray hatch-filled polygon is a square for each diagram:
In[15]:=
Out[15]=
A weaker version of the result is that any cyclic quadrilateral (not necessary harmonic) is the inversion of some rectangle. The inversion center is found in the similar way as described above.
Generate a set of random harmonic quadrilaterals:
In[16]:=
Out[19]=
Check the distribution of the area of harmonic quadrilaterals in the unit circle:

Parallel LInes
I do not support or endorse any 3rd party websites I have included as "Links" on my pages. I do not receive any financial compensation for linking pages. These resources were provided in the instructional materials or items I found while searching for information.
Just as the Pythagorean Theorem is an amazing math formula for use with RIGHT Triangles, there are interesting relationships between angles and parallel lines.
PARALLEL Lines are two (or more lines that do not intersect). The TRANSVERSAL is a line that crosses the Parallel Lines.
It is important to remember that a LINE has a measure of 180 degrees. Supplementary Angles add up to 180. Complementary Angles add up to 90.
The 'Standard' is often the angles are labeled in a 'clockwise'' order and they are labeled with 'Letters' in increasing sequential order. It gets confusing if you label angles with 'Numbers' ! The Letter 'O' is often used for ORIGIN but can be confussed with ZERO.
Given two parallel lines cut by a transversal, there are 8 Angles associations that are formed. Angles are classified as being External (outside the Parallel Lines) or Internal (Inside the Parallel Lines).
They are also on the Same Side or Opposite Side of the transversal.
Angles may also be Adjacent (share a vertex and a side) or Vertical (opposite) formed by the intersection of two lines.

I have not understood this well, despite doing a lot of background reading.
I guess all of these vectors are being added only as projections along the same direction? So, a vector perpendicular to another would not change its value, parallel vectors would add, antiparallel vectors would subtract.
I don't think I understand the concept very well, but this would mean:

Mathematical Way
The Leg Rule (or Leg geometric mean theorem) relates the length of each leg of a right triangle with the segments projected by them on the hypotenuse.
Divide the right triangle (ABC) by its height (h) into two smaller right triangles, (CAD and CDB).
In every right triangle, a leg (a or b) is the geometric mean between the hypotenuse (c) and the projection of that leg on it (n or m).
The main application of the leg rule is to calculate the legs (a and b) of the right triangle from the segments of the projections on the hypotenuse (n and m) and the latter (c). If we know the length of the legs and the length of the hypotenuse we can calculate the perimeter of a right triangle.
Exercise
Find the length of the legs of a right triangle ABC, in which the projections of the legs on the hypotenuse are n = 2 cm and m = 8 cm. These are the segments in which the altitude h (or height) divides the hypotenuse.
Find the perimeter of this right triangle ABC.
Solution:
Applying the Geometric Mean (Leg) Theorem (or Leg Rule) we can find the length of the legs if we know the length of the two segments.
When we know the length of the legs and the hypotenuse we can find the value of the perimeter:

5 Best Ways to Draw Different Shapes Using the Python Turtle Library
💡 Problem Formulation: This article aims at providing coders, from beginners to experts, with clear methods on utilizing the Python Turtle library to create various geometric shapes. For instance, if a user needs to draw a square with equal sides, the expected output is a polygon with four equal straight sides and four right angles.
Method 1: Drawing a Square
Drawing a square using the Turtle library is a beginner-friendly task that involves moving the turtle forward and turning it right by 90 degrees four times. The forward() function moves the turtle in its current heading, and the right() function turns the turtle clockwise.
The output is a green window displaying a square with sides of 100 pixels.
This snippet creates a window, initializes a turtle, and uses a loop to repeat the forward and right turn actions to draw a square. After completion, turtle.done() is called to keep the window open.
Method 2: Drawing a Circle
The Python Turtle library simplifies drawing circles by providing the circle() function. This function takes a radius as an argument and draws a circle with the specified radius around the turtle's current position.
Here's an example:
import turtle
t = turtle.Turtle()
t.circle(50)
turtle.done()
The output is a simple circle with a radius of 50 pixels.
In this example, the turtle draws a circle with a 50-pixel radius around its current position. Once the circle is complete, turtle.done() prevents the window from closing immediately.
Method 3: Drawing a Triangle
To draw an equilateral triangle, we can use the Turtle library functions forward() and left(). Turning the turtle left by 120 degrees at each corner ensures equal angles

PCC: Apollonius' Problem with Two Circles and a Point
Each of the cases of the Problem of Apollonius has several known solutions. The problem with three circles (CCC) may be reduced to the problem with two circles and a point (PCC). As I shall show below, the latter reduces to an even more special case, that of two points and a circle (PPC).
Find a circle tangent to two given circles and passing through a given point:
The applet below illustrates the construction. The given circles are \((A)\) and \((C)\) and \(E\) is the given point. Both circles have a nameless point on the boundary that can be dragged to modify the circle.
Construction
Find a circle tangent to two given circles and passing through a given point:
A simple remark shows that the problem can be reduced to the PPC case. Indeed, a circle tangent to two given circles and passing through a given point, passes necessarily through another point that can be easily found:
Let \(P\) be (in our case) external center of similitude of the given circles \((A)\) and \((C)\), with the common tangent through \(P\) touching \((A)\) at \(G\) and \((C)\) at \(H\). Form the circumcircle \(EGH.\) Let \(E'\) be a second intersection of \(EP\) with \(EGH.\) Then
\(
EP\cdot E'P = GP\cdot HP
\)
which is in fact a given. Thus point \(E'\) can be easily determined; the task now becomes finding a circle through points \(E\) and \(E'\) tangent to any of the given two circles. The diagram below combines all the steps of the construction:
Note that above we have looked into the case where the sought circles touch the given ones in the same sense - either both internally or both externally. There may be two other possibilities, increasing the total number of solutions from 2 to 4:
To obtain these solution one has to start with the internal center of similitude of the two given circles. I have also overlooked the case where one of the circles lies entirely within the other, in which case finding the common tangents is of no help. This case will be illustrated separately.

5.1 Difference between plane and lamina. Projection of lamina Parallel to one and perpendicular to other, Perpendicular to one and inclined to other, Inclined to both reference planes, and Lamina oblique to three reference planes. Application of auxiliary planes, and trace of planes.
Plane is a two dimensional figure with limited/ unlimited two dimensions.
Lamina is also a two dimensional figure with limited two dimensions. For example a sheet of paper is a lamina. its SURFACE with one of the reference planes will be given
Inclination of one of its EDGES with other reference plane will be given (Hence this will be a case of an object inclined to both reference Planes.)
Introduction
Plane figures or surfaces have only two dimensions, viz. Length and breadth. They do not have thickness. A plane figure may be assumed to be contained by a plane, and its projections can be drawn, if the position of that plane with respect to the principal planes of projection is known.
In this chapter, we shall discuss the following topics:
1. Types of planes and their projections.
2. Traces of planes.
Type of planes:
Planes may be divided into two main types:
(1) Perpendicular planes.
(2) Oblique planes.
Perpendicular planes:
These planes can be divided into the following sub-types:
(i) Perpendicular to both the reference planes.
(ii) Perpendicular to one plane and parallel to the other.
(iii) Perpendicular to one plane and inclined to the other.
Perpendicular to both the reference planes (fig 1):
A square ABCD is perpendicular to both the planes. Its H.T. And V.T. Are in a straight-line perpendicular to xy.
Figure 1
The front view b'c' and the top view ab of the square are both lines coinciding with the V.T. And the H.T. Respectively.
Perpendicular to one plane and parallel to the other plane:
a) Plane, perpendicular to the H.P. And parallel to the V.P. [fig. 12(i)]. A triangle PQR is perpendicular to the H.P. And is parallel to the V.P. Its H.T. Is parallel to xy. It has no V.T.
The front view p'q'r' shows the exact shape and size of the triangle. The top view pqr is a line parallel to xy. It coincides with the H.T.
(b) Plane, perpendicular to the V.P. And parallel to the H.P. [fig. 2(ii)]. A square ABCD is perpendicular to the V.P. And parallel to the H.P. Its V.T. Is parallel to xy. It has no H.T.
The top view abed shows the true shape and true size of the square. The front view a'b' is a line, parallel to xy. It coincides with the V.T.
Figure 2
Perpendicular to one plane and inclined to the other plane:
A square ABCD is perpendicular to the H.P. And inclined at an angle φ to the V.P. Its V.T. Is perpendicular to xy. Its H.T. Is inclined at φ to xy.
Its top view ab is a line inclined at φ to xy. The front view a'b'c'd' is smaller than ABCD.
Figure 3
(b) Plane, perpendicular to the V.P. And inclined to the H.P. (fig. 3).
A square ABCD is perpendicular to the V.P. And inclined at an angle θ to the H.P. Its H.T. Is perpendicular to xy. Its V.T. Makes the angle e with xy. Its front view a'b' is a line inclined at θ to xy. The top view abed is a rectangle which is smaller than the square ABCD.
Figure 4
Fig. 4 shows the projections and the traces of all these perpendicular planes by third-angle projection method.

Short Answer
Expert verified
The centroid of the triangle is at point \((a, b)\).
Step by step solution
01
Find the roots of the cubic equation
The roots of the cubic equation are given as \(\tan{\alpha}, \tan{\beta}, \tan{\gamma}\). According to Vieta's formulas, the sum of the roots of a cubic equation \(x^{3}-3 a x^{2}+3 b x-1=0\) is equal to \(3a\). By the addition formula for tangent function, \(\tan{\alpha} + \tan{\beta} + \tan{\gamma} = \tan{\alpha} + \tan{\beta} - \tan{(\pi - \gamma)} = \tan{(\alpha +\beta)} = 3a\).
02
Calculate the \(x\)-coordinate of centroid
Substituting the values into the formula for the \(x\)-coordinate of the centroid, we get \(\frac{\tan \alpha + \tan \beta + \tan \gamma}{3} = a\).
03
Calculate the \(y\)-coordinate of centroid
Similarly, we can follow the same steps to find the \(y\)-coordinates of the triangle vertices. We know that \(\cot(\alpha) = \frac{1}{\tan(\alpha)}\), so we can compute the \(y\)-coordinate of the centroid as \(\frac{\frac{1}{\tan \alpha} + \frac{1}{\tan \beta} + \frac{1}{\tan \gamma}}{3}\). But knowing that \(\frac{1}{\tan \alpha} + \frac{1}{\tan \beta} + \frac{1}{\tan \gamma} = 3b\), the \(y\)-coordinate of the centroid simplifies to \(b

To solve these problems, you must have a clear understanding of the chapter Quadrilateral and its topics. Some of its topics are given below.
Topics Discuss in the Chapter Quadrilateral
Introduction to shapes
Polygons
Classification of polygons
Diagonals
Convex and concave polygons
Regular and irregular polygons
Angle sum property
Sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon
Kinds of quadrilaterals: Trapezium, Kite, Parallelogram
Elements of a parallelogram
Angles of a parallelogram
Diagonals of a parallelogram
Some special parallelograms: Rhombus, Rectangle, Square
Important Points to Remember
A quadrilateral is made up of four line segments with four vertices normally named A, B, C and D.
In a quadrilateral figure, four sides are the four line segments between the vertices, eg. AB, BC, CD and DA.
Two sides of a quadrilateral figure which have a common endpoint i.e. intersect each other, are called consecutive sides.
Two sides of a quadrilateral figure that do not have a common endpoint are called opposite sides of a quadrilateral.
A diagonal of a quadrilateral is the joining of the opposite vertices by a line segment.
If the two angles of a quadrilateral do not have a common arm, then the angles are called opposite angles.
If the two angles of a quadrilateral have a common arm, then the angles are called consecutive or adjacent angles.
The sum of the four angles of a quadrilateral measures 360°.
Different Types of Quadrilaterals
Following are the different types of quadrilaterals that you will learn in this chapter:
Trapezium: A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides are parallel is called a trapezium. Please note that if two non-parallel sides of a trapezium are equal, then it is called an isosceles triangle.
Parallelogram: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite sides are parallel, and it is written as ||gm.
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if any of the condition satisfy
Its opposite angles are equal.
Its opposite sides are equal.
Diagonals bisect each other.
Some Important Points to Keep in Mind About Parallelogram
A parallelogram is a trapezium but a trapezium is not a parallelogram. This is because, in a trapezium, only one pair of opposite sides is parallel whereas and in a parallelogram, both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
The adjacent angles of a parallelogram sum to 180°.
Rhombus: A rhombus is a type of parallelogram in which all sides are equal. In other words, when all the four sides in a quadrilateral are equal and both pairs of opposite sides are parallel, it is called a rhombus.
Rectangle: A parallelogram in which one of its angles is the right angle is called a rectangle. In other words, a quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel and equal and one angle is 90° is called a rectangle.
Kite: A kite is a quadrilateral that has two pairs of equal adjacent congruent sides. Note that a kite is not a parallelogram.
Important Facts to Remember
Every square, rectangle and rhombus is a parallelogram.
Every square can be both rectangle and rhombus.
A kite is not a parallelogram.
In trapezium only one opposite pair is parallel, so it is not a parallelogram.
Every rectangle or rhombus is not a square.
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other and are of equal lengths.
The diagonals of a square bisect each other to form right angles.
The diagonals of a square bisect each other at right angles and are of equal lengths.
The angles of a triangle opposite to equal sides of the triangle are equal.
The Diagonals of a kite bisect each other to form right angles.
Interior and Exterior of a Quadrilateral
The sum of interior angles in a quadrilateral and the sum of exterior angles of a quadrilateral are always 360°.
Convex and Concave Quadrilateral
Convex Quadrilateral is a quadrilateral in which every internal angle measures less than 180°. A Concave Quadrilateral is a quadrilateral in which the internal angles measure greater than 180°.
Properties of a Parallelogram
In a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal.
In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal.
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Properties of a Rhombus
In a Rhombus, all sides measure equal.
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other.
Properties of a Rectangle
Each of the angles in a rectangle is a right angle.
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other.
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal.
Properties of a Square
Each of the angles of a square measures 90.
The diagonals of a square are of the same length.
The diagonals of a square bisect each other to form right angles.

Letters In Two Point Perspective Worksheet Answers
Letters In Two Point Perspective Worksheet Answers – A DOME is a temporary pavilion designed for the seventh edition of the festival Concéntrico in Logroño (La Rioja – Spain). The pavilion is placed in the main square of the city center – Plaza del Mercado – in front of the facade of the Co-cathedral of Santa Maria de La Redonda. The project intends to establish a dialogue with the architecture of the church: the volume of the pavilion is created on the monumental central level of the facade. The comparison is found instead of invented.
The DOME consists of a cylindrical envelope of light silver colored technical fabric, crowned with a hemispherical top. A balloon is trapped inside the envelope, and 12 anchoring cables sewn into the fabric and anchored to the concrete ballasts placed on the base along the circular perimeter. The balloon, with a diameter of 7 meters, filled with 179, 21 cubic meters of helium, develops a high force of about 180 kg and maintains a vertical structure. The total height of the pavilion is 16, 60 meters and the circumference is about 22 meters. The fabric envelope stops 2 meters above the ground allowing access to the space covered by the dome.

DOME is an effort to produce a monument through the use of minimum means. The structure is "temporarily monumental" and unstable. It occupies the city as a ghost of possible architecture. Subject to the action of the wind, the volume of the dome fluctuates and is precarious. Depending on the weather conditions, the light emphasizes or dematerializes the surface.

A DOME activates a portion of 40 m2 of public space. This small point is populated by concrete objects: a bench, a fountain, a support for a lamp … Objects that are heavy and dumb: fragments of an archaeological invention. The balloon gravitates above it as a pale white moon, providing a little shadow and a sense of wonder. Have you ever wondered how to draw 3-dimensional letters that look like a solid structure? So your answer is to use the law of perspective. We will show you, in an easy way, how to draw 3d letters with one point perspective. Find out how to draw these neat letters now.
Perspective in general is very important. Perspective techniques help you create depth in your artwork, and in fact in all your flat work (what is on paper). If you have no idea what perspective drawing is, you may want to take a look at our tutorials on the subject (this is only an option – you will be able to follow this tutorial without knowing anything on the subject).
(Step 1) Start by lightly drawing a word (as we will erase later), in my case, I wrote "JOHN". Do whatever word you choose.
(Step 2) Now outline the letters, as I did, so you make block letters. You can draw the original letters now… so you have block letters left.

****Drag a dot for a missing dot…it can be anywhere above the word. A vanishing point is a point where something that has grown smaller or fainter disappears altogether. So, for example, when you look down a street, with sidewalks at both ends….eventually both the sidewalk and the street appear to all come together at the end. This will be the vanishing point. We use vanishing points in perspective drawings to create the illusion of depth on a flat piece of paper.
(Step 5) Select how far you want each letter to go, then draw a horizontal line (or a curved line in the case of the letter 'o') for each letter.

During the construction of the block or at any time, the user is free to reposition (translate, rotate or zoom) the geometry for easy visualization. This is easily accomplished in several ways (refer to Model Rotation and Model Translating). The easiest way to play is to simply hold down the left mouse button and drag the cursor on the screen. Translation is achieved by holding down the right mouse button. The model can be zoomed in or out by holding down both mouse buttons.
There are many methods that can be used to construct these entities. In this tutorial several different techniques will be demonstrated.
The simplest (though most time-consuming) approach is to build a series of 8 corner blocks one after the other.
To build the first block, use CAD > Build > FFLoop. These functions can be selected from the CAD toolbar as follows (enable the CAD toolbar if it is not visible using Tools > CAD Toolbar):

Since we want to snap to the construction line we need to set the snap mode. This is done using CAD > Snap > Nearest Edge. This function can be selected from the Build Entity toolbar
Although the coordinates of the current cursor location are indicated in the status bar, if the pick-box is located over the corner of a construction line, the corner that will be selected is, in other words, the closest point on the edge of the construction line under the line. the pick-box will be selected. In either case, all 3 coordinate values (x, y and z) are uniquely specified.
You will see that the FFLoop building routine prompts you to enter the first corner of the block in the status bar
Move the cursor until you find point #1. Select this point by clicking the left mouse button once.

When you move the cursor you will see that not only the current cursor location is indicated in the lower left corner of the screen, but also the offset of the current point from the last one selected (ie the offset vector from point 1 to point 2). Select point #2. Repeat this selection process for points #3 and #4.
If the first point is reselected, the base of the block is completely formed. You will be prompted with a message
To complete the block building we will generate the remaining 4 points from the first 4 corners by adding an offset to them. To use this last procedure, select the offset function from the Build Entity toolbar

Upon completion of block construction you will automatically be prompted to enter block properties (CAD > Build > FFLoop)
By repeating the FFLoop construction procedure above, the entire level can be constructed as a series of blocks.
This can be done using the same FFLoop construction technique described above, except we will select all 14 points as the floor plan. Once point #14 has been selected you must reset point #1 to complete the base of the block. You will be prompted with a message
This construction procedure will create a large continuous block covering the entire floor plan. If desired, the user can build a block using the sequence of points 1-2-3-4-5-6-9-10-13-14-1 to build a hangingwall drive, then 13-10-11-12 and 9- 6- 7-8 to build cross-cuts as separate blocks. This later procedure will be desirable if the cross-cut that is mined in the mining step is different from the hangingwall drive.

Because we want to snap to the corner of the previously built block, we need to set the snap mode to CAD > Snap > Nearest Corner. This function can be selected from the Build Entity toolbar

The regular polygon has side 9 m. How do you find each angle measure to the nearest tenth of a degree, each linear measure to the nearest tenth of a meter, and the square measure to the nearest square meter?
1 Answer
This question can not be answered without additional information such as the number of sides of the regular polygon (except in very general terms such as #"angle measure" = (n-2) * 180^circ#)
Explanation:
The "Answer" above should really be a comment asking for additional information, but since the question was posted 2 years ago any response is unlikely. Posting as an "Answer" will clear this from the unanswered questions queue.

Radian mode calculator
Understanding Radian Mode and its Calculation
Radian mode is a unit of angular measurement commonly used in mathematics and physics. Unlike degrees, which divide a circle into 360 equal parts, radians divide a circle into 2π (approximately 6.28) equal parts. Radian mode is often preferred in many mathematical calculations and formulas because it simplifies trigonometric functions and calculus.
Calculating radians from degrees is a straightforward process. To convert degrees to radians, you multiply the degree value by π/180 (or approximately 0.017453). This formula represents the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter and allows you to convert from the degree measurement to the corresponding radian measurement.
Example: Let's say we want to convert an angle of 45 degrees to radians:
45 degrees * (π/180) = 0.7854 radians
To make it easier for you to calculate radians, you can use the Radian Mode Calculator provided above.

How Many Degrees in an Octagon: Understanding the Mathematics and Design
Introduction
When it comes to understanding geometry and design, one shape that often comes up is the octagon. Whether you're interested in architecture, landscaping, or simply want to explore geometric shapes, understanding how many degrees are in an octagon is important. This article will explore the mathematics behind this shape, its use in design, and ways to visualize and observe it in the natural world.
Starting with the Basics: What is an Octagon?
Before we dive into the math and design aspects of the octagon, it's important to understand what this shape is. An octagon is a two-dimensional shape with eight sides and eight angles. It is a polygon, which means it is a closed shape with straight sides. The octagon is unique in that it has eight sides of equal length, making it a regular octagon.
There are different types of octagons, including concave and irregular octagons. The degrees in these types of octagons may vary, but for the purpose of this article, we will focus on regular octagons. Understanding the degrees in a regular octagon can help in a variety of fields, including design and construction.
Mathematical Properties of an Octagon: Understanding the Degrees
To understand the degrees in an octagon, we first need to calculate the total number of degrees that make up this shape. To do this, we can use a simple formula: (n-2) x 180, where "n" is the number of sides in the shape. For an octagon, this formula would be (8-2) x 180 = 1080 degrees.
Now that we know the total degrees in an octagon, we can find the degrees in individual angles within the shape. To do this, we can use another formula: (n-2) x 180 / n, where "n" is the number of sides in the shape. For an octagon, this would be (8-2) x 180 / 8 = 135 degrees. This means that each angle in an octagon measures 135 degrees.
If you want to practice finding the degrees in individual angles within an octagon, try these sample problems:
What is the measure of one angle in a regular octagon?
What is the sum of all the angles in a regular octagon?
What is the measure of each exterior angle in a regular octagon?
Designing an Octagon: Factors to Consider
Octagons are commonly used in design and construction, particularly in architecture and landscaping. Understanding the degrees in an octagon can impact the design process, as it can ensure that the shape is harmonious and balanced. It can also ensure that the angles are accurate, which is important for stability and safety.
When incorporating octagons into designs, there are a few factors to consider. For example, the size and proportion of the octagon will impact how it fits in with surrounding shapes and structures. The materials used to create the octagon, such as wood or stone, can also impact its appearance and function.
Visualizing an Octagon: Using Geometry to Enhance Learning
When learning about geometry, it can be helpful to use visualization techniques to enhance understanding. This is no different when it comes to understanding the degrees in an octagon. There are a variety of visualization techniques you can use, such as creating 3D models or using interactive geometry software. These tools can help you see the relationships between shapes and better understand how the degrees in an octagon relate to one another.
Some benefits of using visualization tools for learning geometry include improved spatial reasoning skills, increased engagement with the material, and the ability to see problems from multiple perspectives. If you're interested in using visualization tools to learn more about the degrees in an octagon, there are many resources available online.
Octagons in Nature: Finding Symmetry and Angles
While octagons are often associated with man-made structures, they can also be found in nature. For example, crystal formations may take on octagonal shapes. Observing these shapes in nature can enhance your understanding of the degrees in an octagon and how they relate to other shapes and structures.
If you're interested in exploring your local environment and observing octagonal shapes in nature, there are many resources available online to help you get started. Some suggestions include visiting local rock formations or observing the shapes of leaves and flowers.
From Octagon to Circle: Understanding the Relationship of Angles
Understanding the degrees in an octagon can also help you understand the degrees in other shapes, such as a circle. While circles and octagons may seem very different, there is actually a relationship between the degrees in these shapes.
The formula for finding the degrees in a circle is 360 degrees divided by the number of sides. Since a circle has an infinite number of sides, we can use the formula to find the degrees in other shapes that are similar to circles. For example, a regular octagon inscribed in a circle will have angles that measure 45 degrees.
Conclusion
Understanding the degrees in an octagon is an important aspect of learning about geometry and design. By knowing the total number of degrees in the shape and the degrees in individual angles, you can better understand how octagons fit into designs and structures. A variety of visualization techniques can enhance your learning experience, as can exploring natural structures that take on octagonal shapes. Ultimately, understanding the degrees in an octagon can help you see the relationships between shapes and angles and give you a greater appreciation for the underlying mathematics of our world.
To continue learning about geometry and related topics, consider exploring resources online or consulting with a math or design professional.

Abstract
Quadratum Geometricum is a surveying and astronomical instrument by George Von Peurbach who is known as an Austrian astronomer. This article discusses the accuracy and development concept of Quadratum Geometricum which is named Neo Quadratum Geometricum. This research is development research, which has 2 stages, namely the preliminary stage and the formative evaluation stage which consists of: self evaluation, prototyping (expert reviews and one-to-one, and small groups), and field tests. The findings of this study include: Neo Quadratum Geometricum innovation, namely the existence of a conversion arc from the value of the horizontal and vertical rulers which serves to value of the angle of tan/cotan immediately known without looking at the table. Quadratum Geometricum is more accurate in the tan angle conversion test, Neo Quadratum Geometricum is 0.0025 greater than the calculator, while Quadratum Geometricum is the same. Because, the accuracy of Neo Quadratum Geometricum is only up to minutes. However, in terms of the effectiveness of using Neo Quadratum Geometricum it is more practical, because it does not use tables. In measuring the height of the object, the difference is 8.5 cm from the actual height.

@Greg: 5) is "pierce a very small hole, suspend the polygon from a pin through the hole, allow it to hang freely, and draw a vertical line through the hole. Pierce a second hole not on the first line, repeat, and the point of intersection is the centre of mass". There is a small error though for the mass (re)moved by the first hole, when you hang from the second hole, so you might want to use two separate copies of the polygon, or figure out a way to hang the polygon without damaging it. And you may not need to print it, you could simulate in your favourite physics engine ;-)
Extracted from Wikipedia:
The centroid of a non-self-intersecting closed polygon defined by n vertices (x0,y0), (x1,y1), ..., (xn−1,yn−1) is the point (Cx, Cy), where
and where A is the polygon's signed area,
@mixkat For a intersecting polygon you have to use the integral formula as described in the wikipedia article. Or decompose the polygon into non-intersecting polygons and use the method described above.
This is an incorrect answer - center of gravity is not same as centroid of polygon - when points cannot form a convex shape, you cannot use it at all, as there are more than one polygons that can be formed from such points.
If a physical object has uniform density, then its center of mass is the same as the centroid of its shape. The requirement for the formula described above is 'a non-self-intersecting closed polygon', so the vertexes of the polygon will form only one non-self-intersecting closed polygon.
I had to add a special case where the polygos size is 1 or if all the points of the polygon are the same point, ex. it's a dot or an empty polygon. in that case, the COG is just the avarage point. otherwise you get a devision by zero because the cross is 0. So if (sum == 0) return pts.average();
This was my implementation in Java of the accepted solution, I added an extra conditional check because some of my polygons were flat and had no area, and rather than giving me the midpoint, it was returning (0,0). Thus in this case, I reference a different method which simply averages the vertices. The rounding at the end is because I wanted to keep my output object as integers even though it is imprecise, but I welcome you to remove that bit. Also, since all of my points were positive integers, the check made sense for me, but for you, adding an area check == 0 would also make sense.

Finding the Slope of a Line from its Graph
Learning Outcomes
Find the slope of a line from its graph
Find the slope of horizontal and vertical lines
The mathematical definition of slope is very similar to our everyday one. In math, slope is used to describe the steepness and direction of lines. In this section, we will begin exploring the concept of slope using a geoboard and then we will learn how to measure the slopes of lines on a rectangular coordinate system.
Using rubber bands on a geoboard gives a concrete way to model lines on a coordinate grid. By stretching a rubber band between two pegs on a geoboard, we can discover how to find the slope of a line. We'll start by stretching a rubber band between two pegs to make a line as shown in the image below.
Does it look like a line?
Now we stretch one part of the rubber band straight up from the left peg and around a third peg to make the sides of a right triangle as shown in the image below. We carefully make a [latex]90^ \circ [/latex] angle around the third peg, so that one side is vertical and the other is horizontal.
To find the slope of the line, we measure the distance along the vertical and horizontal legs of the triangle. The vertical distance is called the rise and the horizontal distance is called the run, as shown below.
To help remember the terms, it may help to think of the images shown below.
On our geoboard, the rise is [latex]2[/latex] units because the rubber band goes up [latex]2[/latex] spaces on the vertical leg. See the image below.
What is the run? (Be sure to count the spaces between the pegs rather than the pegs themselves!) The rubber band goes across [latex]3[/latex] spaces on the horizontal leg, so the run is [latex]3[/latex] units.
The slope of a line is the ratio of the rise to the run. So the slope of our line is [latex]{\Large\frac{2}{3}}[/latex]. In mathematics, the slope is always represented by the letter [latex]m[/latex].
Slope of a line
The slope of a line is [latex]m={\Large\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}}[/latex].
The rise measures the vertical change and the run measures the horizontal change.
When we work with geoboards, it is a good idea to get in the habit of starting at a peg on the left and connecting to a peg to the right. Then we stretch the rubber band to form a right triangle.
If we start by going up when we connect the second peg, the rise is positive, and if we stretch it down the rise is negative. We will count the run from left to right, just like you read this paragraph, so the run will be positive.
Since the slope formula is rise over run, it may be easier to always count out the rise first and then the run.
example
What is the slope of the line on the geoboard shown? up and to the right to reach the second peg.
Count the rise and the run as shown.
[latex-display]\begin{array}{cccc}\text{The rise is }3\text{ units}.\hfill & & & m={\Large\frac{3}{\text{run}}}\hfill \\ \text{The run is}4\text{ units}.\hfill & & & m={\Large\frac{3}{4}}\hfill \\ & & & \text{The slope is }{\Large\frac{3}{4}}\hfill \end{array}[/latex-display]
example
What is the slope of the line on the geoboard shown?
Answer: to the peg on the right. This time we need to stretch the rubber band down to make the vertical leg, so the rise is negative.
[latex-display]\begin{array}{cccc}\text{The rise is }-1.\hfill & & & m={\Large\frac{-1}{\text{run}}}\hfill \\ \text{The run is}3.\hfill & & & m={\Large\frac{-1}{3}}\hfill \\ & & & m=-{\Large\frac{1}{3}}\hfill \\ & & & \text{The slope is }-{\Large\frac{1}{3}}\hfill \end{array}[/latex-display]

Finding the Slope of a Line from its Graph
By just looking at the graph of a line, you can learn some things about its slope, especially relative to other lines graphed on the same coordinate plane. Consider the graphs of the three lines shown below:
First, let's look at lines A and B. If you imagined these lines to be hills, you would say that line B is steeper than line A. Line B has a greater slope than line A.
Next, notice that lines A and B slant up as you move from left to right. We say these two lines have a positive slope. Line C slants down from left to right. Line C has a negative slope. Using two of the points on the line, you can find the slope of the line by finding the rise and the run. The vertical change between two points is called the rise, and the horizontal change is called the run. The slope equals the rise divided by the run: [latex] \displaystyle \text{Slope }=\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}[/latex].
You can determine the slope of a line from its graph by looking at the rise and run. (Notice the similarity between the image above and the Geoboard examples we looked at earlier.) One characteristic of a line is that its slope is constant all the way along it. So, you can choose any 2 points along the graph of the line to figure out the slope. Let's look at an example.
Example
Use the graph to find the slope of the line.
Answer: Startrise}=2[/latex]
Startrun}=4[/latex]
Next, move horizontally to the point [latex](6,3)[/latex]. Count the number of units. The run is 4 units. It is positive as you moved to the right.
Answer
[latex]\frac{1}{2}[/latex]
This line will have a slope of [latex] \displaystyle \frac{1}{2}[/latex] no matter which two points you pick on the line. Try measuring the slope from the origin, [latex](0,0)[/latex], to the point [latex](6,3)[/latex]. You will find that the [latex]\text{rise}=3[/latex] and the [latex]\text{run}=6[/latex]. The slope is [latex] \displaystyle \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}[/latex]. It is the same!
Let's look at another example.
Example
Use the graph to find the slope of the two lines.
Answer: Notice that both of these lines have positive slopes, so you expect your answers to be positive.
Blue line
[latex]\text{rise}=4[/latex]
Start with the blue line, going from point [latex](-2,1)[/latex] to point [latex](-1,5)[/latex]. This line has a rise of 4 units up, so it is positive.
[latex]\text{run}=1[/latex]
Run is [latex]1[/latex] unit to the right, so it is positive.
[latex] \displaystyle \text{Slope }=\frac{4}{1}=4[/latex]
Substitute the values for the rise and run in the formula [latex] \displaystyle \text{Slope }\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}[/latex].
Red line
[latex]\text{rise}=1[/latex]
The red line, going from point [latex](-1,-2)[/latex] to point [latex](3,-1)[/latex] has a rise of 1 unit.
[latex]\text{run}=4[/latex]
The red line has a run of 4 units.
[latex] \displaystyle \text{Slope }=\frac{1}{4}[/latex]
Substitute the values for the rise and run into the formula [latex] \displaystyle \text{Slope }\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}[/latex].
Answer
The slope of the blue line is [latex]4[/latex] and the slope of the red line is [latex]\frac{1}{4}[/latex].
When you look at the two lines, you can see that the blue line is steeper than the red line. It makes sense the value of the slope of the blue line, [latex]4[/latex], is greater than the value of the slope of the red line, [latex] \displaystyle \frac{1}{4}[/latex]. The greater the slope, the steeper the line.
Finding the Slope of a Line From a Graph
Distinguish between graphs of lines with negative and positive slopes
Direction is important when it comes to determining slope. It's important to pay attention to whether you are moving up, down, left, or right; that is, if you are moving in a positive or negative direction. If you go up to get to your second point, the rise is positive. If you go down to get to your second point, the rise is negative. If you go right to get to your second point, the run is positive. If you go left to get to your second point, the run is negative.
In the following two examples, you will see a slope that is positive and one that is negative.
Example (Advanced)
Find the slope of the line graphed below.
Answer:
[latex]\text{rise}=4.5[/latex]
Start at [latex](-3,-0.25)[/latex] and rise [latex]4.5[/latex]. This means moving 4.5 units in a positive direction.
[latex]\text{run}=6[/latex]
From there, run [latex]6[/latex] units in a positive direction to [latex](3,4.25)[/latex].
Answer
The slope of the line is [latex]-\frac{3}{2}[/latex].
NOTE: you could have found the slope by starting at point B, running [latex]{-2}[/latex], and then rising [latex]+3[/latex] to arrive at point A. The result is still a slope of [latex]\displaystyle\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}=\frac{+3}{-2}=-\frac{3}{2}[/latex].
In all of the previous examples of finding the slope of a line, we were given two points. Now we will look at some examples where we are not automatically given two points on the line.
To find the slope, we must count out the rise and the run. But where do we start?
We locate any two points on the line. We try to choose points with coordinates that are integers to make our calculations easier. We then start with the point on the left and sketch a right triangle, so we can count the rise and run.

Locate two points on the graph, choosing points whose coordinates are integers. We will use [latex]\left(0,-3\right)[/latex] and [latex]\left(5,1\right)[/latex].
Starting with the point on the left, [latex]\left(0,-3\right)[/latex], sketch a right triangle, going from the first point to the second point, [latex]\left(5,1\right)[/latex].
Count the rise on the vertical leg of the triangle.
The rise is [latex]4[/latex] units.
Count the run on the horizontal leg.
The run is [latex]5[/latex] units.
Use the slope formula.
[latex]m={\Large\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}}[/latex]
Substitute the values of the rise and run.
[latex]m={\Large\frac{4}{5}}[/latex]
The slope of the line is [latex]{\Large\frac{4}{5}}[/latex] .
Notice that the slope is positive since the line slants upward from left to right.

example
Find the slope of the line shown:
Answer:
Solution
Locate two points on the graph. Look for points with coordinates that are integers. We can choose any points, but we will use [latex](0, 5)[/latex] and [latex](3, 3)[/latex]. Starting with the point on the left, sketch a right triangle, going from the first point to the second point.
Count the rise – it is negative.
The rise is [latex]−2[/latex].
Count the run.
The run is [latex]32}{3}}[/latex]
Simplify.
[latex]m=-{\Large\frac{2}{3}}[/latex]
The slope of the line is [latex]-{\Large\frac{2}{3}}[/latex].
Notice that the slope is negative since the line slants downward from left to right.
What if we had chosen different points? Let's find the slope of the line again, this time using different points. We will use the points [latex]\left(-3,7\right)[/latex] and [latex]\left(6,1\right)[/latex].
Starting at [latex]\left(-3,7\right)[/latex], sketch a right triangle to [latex]\left(6,1\right)[/latex].

Finding the Slope of Horizontal and Vertical Lines
Do you remember what was special about horizontal and vertical lines? Their equations had just one variable.
horizontal line [latex]y=b[/latex]; all the [latex]y[/latex] -coordinates are the same.
vertical line [latex]x=a[/latex]; all the [latex]x[/latex] -coordinates are the same.
So how do we find the slope of the horizontal line [latex]y=4?[/latex] One approach would be to graph the horizontal line, find two points on it, and count the rise and the run. Let's see what happens. We'll use the two points [latex]\left(0,4\right)[/latex] and [latex]\left(3,4\right)[/latex] to count the rise and run.
What is the rise?
The rise is [latex]0[/latex].
What is the run?
The run is [latex]30}{3}}[/latex]
[latex]m=0[/latex]
The slope of the horizontal line [latex]y=4[/latex] is [latex]0[/latex].
All horizontal lines have slope [latex]0[/latex] . When the [latex]y[/latex] -coordinates are the same, the rise is [latex]0[/latex] .
Slope of a Horizontal Line
The slope of a horizontal line, [latex]y=b[/latex], is [latex]0[/latex].
Now we'll consider a vertical line, such as the line [latex]x=3[/latex], shown below. We'll use the two points [latex]\left(3,0\right)[/latex] and [latex]\left(3,2\right)[/latex] to count the rise and run.
What is the rise?
The rise is [latex]2[/latex].
What is the run?
The run is [latex]02}{0}}[/latex]
But we can't divide by [latex]0[/latex]. Division by [latex]0[/latex] is undefined. So we say that the slope of the vertical line [latex]x=3[/latex] is undefined. The slope of all vertical lines is undefined, because the run is [latex]0[/latex].
Slope of a Vertical Line
The slope of a vertical line, [latex]x=a[/latex], is undefined.
example
Find the slope of each line:
1. [latex]x=8[/latex]
2. [latex]y=-5[/latex]
Answer:
Solution
1. [latex]x=8[/latex]
This is a vertical line, so its slope is undefined.
2. [latex]y=-5[/latex]
This is a horizontal line, so its slope is [latex]0[/latex].
