Questions and Answers

A circle has its center at the point (3, -2) and a radius of 5 units. Determine if the point (7, 1) lies inside, outside, or on the circle.

The point (7, 1) lies outside the circle.

Explain the relationship between the vertex of a quadratic equation in standard form and its corresponding vertex form.

The vertex form of a quadratic equation provides the coordinates of the vertex directly. The standard form of a quadratic equation does not readily show the vertex. To find the vertex from the standard form, you need to complete the square to transform it into vertex form. The vertex is then represented by (h, k) in the vertex form equation $y = a(x - h)^2 + k$.

Describe the process of factoring a quadratic equation that is in standard form using decomposition.

Factoring a quadratic equation in standard form using decomposition involves breaking down the middle term into two terms whose product equals the product of the first and last terms. Then, common factoring is used to factor the quadratic equation. The final result should be the factored form of the equation.

How does the sine law differ from the cosine law in solving non-right angled triangles?

<p>The sine law is used to solve for missing side lengths or angles when you know two angles and one side, or two sides and one angle. The cosine law is used to solve for missing side lengths or angles when you know all three sides or two sides and the included angle.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Explain how the concept of 'zeros' is applied to solve a problem where a ball is thrown into the air, and you need to determine when it hits the ground.

<p>The 'zeros' of a quadratic equation represent the x-intercepts of its graph, which correspond to the points where the function crosses the x-axis. In the context of a ball thrown into the air, the x-axis represents time, and the y-axis represents height. Therefore, the zeros of the equation represent the times when the ball hits the ground (height is 0).</p> Signup and view all the answers
