A rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola

y=5−x^2. What are the dimensions of such a rectangle with the greatest possible area?

Width =

Height =

Width =√10 and Height

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinates of the vertices of the rectangle which lie on the given parabola y = 5 - x² ........ (1)

are (h,k) and (-h,k).

Hence, the area of the rectangle will be (h + h) × k

Therefore, A = h²k ..... (2).

Now, from equation (1) we can write k = 5 - h² ....... (3)

So, from equation (2), we can write

For, A to be greatest ,

⇒

⇒

⇒

Therefore, from equation (3), k = 5 - h²

⇒

Hence,

Width = 2h =√10 and

Height =

< coa = 150 ( given)

as ba and bc are tangents

so oc and oa is perpendicular to cb and ab respectively because in circle normal passes through centre

so in quadrilateral oabc

< coa + < oab + < ocb + < abc = 360

150 +90+90 + < abc = 360

330 + < abc = 360

< abc = 360 -330 = 30

so < abc = 30

center (1,3) with radius 6

step-by-step explanation:

we must complete the square to find the center and radius of the circle.

first make sure the x and y squared terms have 1 as their coefficients. we also make sure x and y terms together.

we now create space between the x and y terms with parenthesis.

we complete the square by taking the middle terms -2x and the -6y - divide each and square them.

we add the squares to both sides.

simplify.

and write the quadratics in factored form.

the center is (h,k) or (1,3). the radius is the square root of 36 which is 6.
