What are some math words that start with y?
Math terms that start with Y are y-axis, y-coordinate, or y-intercept.Also the distance measurement "yard."
What is a perimeter in math?
The perimeter is the length plus width times 2.
What is quasi metric space?
The assumptions of a metric space except for symmetry.
How are parabolas used in real life?
Parabolas are used in real life in light reflectors on cars to create a concentrated beam of intense light. Braking distance and stopping distance are quadratic formulas so their graphs are parabolas. A ball in motion in space has a path of a parabola.
How do you calculate the cartesian coordinate of 3rd corner on a triangle if you have the lengths of all three sides plus the coordinates of the other two corners?
With the distance formula. Call the points A, B, and C. Call the sides ab, bc, and ca. If we know where points A and B are, we can figure out the location of point C. We use two distance formulas. The length of cb and the location of B will give us a set of points an equal distance from point B (a circle with center at B). The length of ca and the location of A will give us a set of points an equal distance from point A (a circle with center at A). The intersection of these two sets (set the distance formulas equal to each other, or otherwise solve for the solution of a set of equations) will be the two possibilities of the vertex C.
