A spruce tree is approximately the shape of a cone with a slant height of 20 ft. The angle formed by the tree with the ground measures 72º. Estimate the height of the tree. Round to the nearest foot. a. 22 ft c. 19 ft b. 27 ft d. 17 ft

Explain why the function is discontinuous at the given number a. (select all that apply.) f(x) = 1 x + 1 a = −1 f(−1) is undefined. lim x→−1+ f(x) and lim x→−1− f(x) exist, but are not equal. lim x→−1 f(x) does not exist. f(−1) and lim x→−1 f(x) exist, but are not equal. none of the above

In δabc shown below, ∠bac is congruent to ∠bca: triangle abc, where angles a and c are congruent given: base ∠bac and ∠acb are congruent. prove: δabc is an isosceles triangle. when completed (fill in the blanks), the following paragraph proves that line segment ab is congruent to line segment bc making δabc an isosceles triangle. (4 points) construct a perpendicular bisector from point b to line segment ac . label the point of intersection between this perpendicular bisector and line segment ac as point d: m∠bda and m∠bdc is 90° by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. ∠bda is congruent to ∠bdc by the definition of congruent angles. line segment ad is congruent to line segment dc by by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. δbad is congruent to δbcd by the line segment ab is congruent to line segment bc because consequently, δabc is isosceles by definition of an isosceles triangle. 1. corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (cpctc) 2. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 1. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 2. the definition of congruent angles 1. the definition of congruent angles 2. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 1. angle-side-angle (asa) postulate 2. corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (cpctc)

In which direction does the left side of the graph of this function point? f(x) = 3x3 - x2 + 4x - 2
