How do you get the area of a trapezoid?
Space and AstronomyTo find the area of a trapezoid, multiply the sum of the bases (the parallel sides) by the height (the perpendicular distance between the bases), and then divide by 2. Why is the area of a trapezoid? The area of this parallelogram is its height (half-height of the trapezoid) times its base (sum of the

Which property is used in Regula Falsi method?
Space and AstronomyIn mathematics, the regula falsi, method of false position, or false position method is a very old method for solving an equation with one unknown; this method, in modified form, is still in use. What principle does Regula Falsi use? The Regula–Falsi Method is a numerical method for estimating the roots of a polynomial f(x).

How do you find the eccentricity of a circle?
Space and AstronomyEccentricity is basically the ratio of the distances of a point on the ellipse from the focus, and the directrix. If the distance of the focus from the center of the ellipse is ‘c’ and the distance of the end of the ellipse from the center is ‘a’, then eccentricity e = c/a. What is

What is the dust in interstellar?
Space and AstronomyCooper assures Murph that there is no ghost. But then there is a gigantic dust storm. The dust storms are caused by the Blight, a plague of general horror that has killed Earth’s crops. The Blight is never explained; certain theories persist that the Blight is caused by Sauron. What does the dust mean in

What are quadratic transformations?
Space and AstronomyWriting Transformations of Quadratic Functions The lowest point on a parabola that opens up or the highest point on a parabola that opens down is the vertex. The vertex form of a quadratic function is f(x) = a(x − h)2 + k, where a ≠ 0 and the vertex is (h, k). f(x) = a(x

What does a horizontal line?
Space and AstronomyA horizontal line is one that goes from left to right across the page. This is because horizontal lines are parallel to the horizon. What does a horizontal line look like? A horizontal line is a line extending from left to right. When you look at the sunrise over the horizon you are seeing the

How do you do operations with rational expressions?
Space and AstronomyIn most cases, the product of the two denominators would work. Rewrite the equivalent form of each rational expression using the common denominator. Add or subtract the numerators of the expressions while retaining the common denominator. Combine like terms and write the result. How do you solve rational expressions step by step? The steps to

When two planes intersect their intersection is A?
Space and Astronomy2.7 Plane Intersection Postulate If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line. What is the intersection of two planes called? The intersection of two planes is a line. If the planes do not intersect, they are parallel. They cannot intersect at only one point because planes are infinite. Furthermore, they cannot intersect over

How do you explain the big bang theory?
Space and AstronomyThe big bang theory is the consensus cosmological framework for explaining the origin, properties, and evolution of the universe. According to this theory, the universe began almost 14 billion years ago in an extremely hot and dense state, from which it has cooled and expanded since. What is the Big Bang theory in simple terms?
