there was also this question that said
if a ladder is 26ft tall and against a wall it is 25ft tall how far is it from the wall?
PLEASE ANYONE I HAVE TO HAND THIS IN AT 11:58

mrs, ummm if it was urgent you couldve notified the helpers

for this we use pythag
given the two sides
he have the hyp (26) and the b side (25)
$given~c^2~=a^2~+~b^2$
Mr. Macro
Mr. Macro
dont forget to squreroot the answer
HELP i didnt know this was a thing
i got that one but the other ones i dont get
@finite brook its a bit blury
use pythagoras- a^2- (a^2/4)= (10.4)^2
in the next one with a lot of triangles. You can see that the triangles fulfill pythagorathas with sides 3,4,5 and so those angles are 90. Now angle D is 90 so you again apply pythagoras in ADB and use sides a, 4, 8(5+3). Pt E divides AB in half since the middle triangle is isoceles, so another pythagoras with sides 5,a/2 and x
Mr. Macro
Last one with octagon- 2x+a = 8 and 2x^2= a^2. Sorry I don't know how to write properly
could u explain what pythagoras is?
and pythagorathas
how would i know if the sides fulfil it??
$c^2~=a^2~+~b^2$
Mr. Macro
@finite brook this is the formula
c is the hypotenuse
a and b are the other sides
๐
this is a good video+ only works in right triangle. Right triangle always fulfills this condition. You see a right triangle, it is pythagoras time.
could u help me study for a chapter test? @tulip basin
these are the concepts and stuff but i dont understand anything
I can teach you the concepts and help with doubts but you have to practice, if that's cool with you then sure @finite brook
tysmm
hi!
here if ur ok w it
I am ok with it
okk
first is square and square root. Do you understand them or should I start from zero
@finite brook
hello? @finite brook
i understand it
sorry my phone was charging
i struggle with word problems though i just dont understand them
Can you point out one of them for me from the pages you sent
like for example this
i wouldnt know how to make an equation based off the sentence
mhm
now the question is saying that this distance or your ability to see depends upon the height of the place you are standing
like if you go a higher building you can see far, if you ride a plane you can see farther
get that?
ohhh yes
now he named this ability to see as d which is
3h/2^1/2
so here you just put h and find d. The question is basically about your understanding of horizon then maths itself. If you can figure out that when he was saying horizon he meant the ability to see then you just have to place h
yes
The equation is already given here, you don't have to form anything
so you need help solving square roots?
so what is h in the question
the value of h in the question, what do you think that is
the h is what you have to find
do i have to divide by 2?
yes
so h is height okay and the question is asking for tallness so do you understand what the question is asking now?
if you don't understand don't worry
I will start fro beginning but you have to tell me
see the first line is the distance to horizon is found using formula. What is distance to horizon here
what do you think it is I mean, in english
?????
you have to speak more than that. I don't understand what you don't understand when you give that.
do you not understand what distance to horizon means in english or what I am asking here?
and I am teaching you, but you have to answer clearly okay and stop and tell me when you don't understand.
okok
yes
now in the first line of question
it says distance to horizon
that means your ability to see
wait
as in if the distance is 10 m, you can only see 10 m
isnt horizon the distance from sky to ground?
no
when you stand on your roof
and look far away
you see sky meeting earth right
ohhh so if i was at the bottom of a hill and i looked up then i would only be able to see 10m?
better assume there's a wall in front of you that is horizon. So if the distance to horizon is 10 m then you can only see 10 m
right
yes
this is easier
so distance to horizons means how far the wall blocking your vision is. If the wall is 10 m away then you can you only see 10 m, beyond it the wall will block your sight so you can't see. Do you understand this?
yes
now check the formula for distance to horizon in the question.
it depends on h. What do you think this h is
the distance from where i am standing to the wall
that is distance to horizon. d. read the first line of question again
the height above sea level? like how much tall i can see
what is your height above ground
what do you think this expression means
do you not understand?
but how can i know how my height above ground is?
do you not know your own height?
you can measure it with an inch tape
now the h in the question, it is the same thing. Ignore the sea level thing, every height is measured above sea level. It means nothing more than height measure with any instrument
so you understand d and h now right
?
