Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex](\sqrt{3} + \frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^{15}[/tex]

Binomial expansion formula,

[tex](a+b)^n=\sum_{r=0}^{n} ^nC_r (a)^{n-r} (b)^r[/tex]

Where,

[tex]^nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

[tex]\implies (\sqrt{3} + \frac{1}{2})^{15}=\sum_{r=0}^{15} ^{15}C_r (\sqrt{3})^{15-r} (\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^r[/tex]

[tex]=(\sqrt{3})^{15}+15(\sqrt{3})^{14}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^1+105(\sqrt{3})^{13}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^2+455(\sqrt{3})^{12}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^3+1365(\sqrt{3})^{11}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^4+3003(\sqrt{3})^{10}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^5+5005(\sqrt{3})^{9}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^6+6435(\sqrt{3})^{8}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^7+6435(\sqrt{3})^{7}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^8+5005(\sqrt{3})^{6}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^9+3003(\sqrt{3})^{5}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^{10}+1365(\sqrt{3})^{4}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^{11}+455(\sqrt{3})^{3}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^{12}+105(\sqrt{3})^{2}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^{13}+15(\sqrt{3})^{1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^{14}+(\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}})^{15}[/tex]

∵ both [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{6}}[/tex] are irrational numbers,

And, if the power of √3 is even, it converted to a rational number,

If its power is odd it remained as irrational number,

But, the product of a rational number and irrational number is irrational,

Thus, all terms in the above expansion are irrational. ( which can not expressed in the form of p/q, where, p and q are integers s.t. q ≠ 0 )

A manufacturer of pickup trucks is required to recall all the trucks manufactured in a given year for the repair of possible defects in the steering column and defects in the brake linings. Dealers have been notified that 3% of the trucks have defective steering only, and that 6% of the trucks have defective brake linings only. If 87% of the trucks have neither defect, what percentage of the trucks have both defects?

Answers

Answer: Probability of trucks having both defects is 4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of trucks having defective brake linings only = 6%

Probability of trucks having defective steering only = 3%

Probability of trucks having neither defect = 87%

Probability of trucks having either defect - 100 - 87 = 13%

Let the probability of trucks having both defects be 'x'.

P(defective brake lining) = P(B) = 0.06+x

P(defective steering) = P(S) = 0.03+x

So, Probability of the trucks having both defects is given by

[tex]P(S\cup B)=P(S)+P(B)-P(S\cap B)\\\\0.13=0.03+x+0.06+x-x\\\\0.13-0.03-0.06=2x-x\\\\0.04=x[/tex]

So, Probability of trucks having both defects is 4%.

Final answer:

The percentage of trucks with both defects is 0%.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we will use the principle of inclusion-exclusion. Let's assume that the percentage of trucks with both defects is x. The percentage of trucks with only defective steering is 3%, the percentage of trucks with only defective brake linings is 6%, and the percentage of trucks with neither defect is 87%. We want to find the percentage of trucks with both defects.

According to the principle of inclusion-exclusion, the total percentage of trucks with at least one defect is given by:

Total = Percentage with defective steering + Percentage with defective brake linings - Percentage with both defects

Using the given percentages, we can set up the equation:

100% = 3% + 6% - x

Simplifying the equation, we get:

x = 9% - 100% = -91%

Since a negative percentage does not make sense in this context, there are no trucks with both defects.

Find the roots of the equation f(x) = x3 - 0.2589x2 + 0.02262x -0.001122 = 0

Answers

Answer:

The root of the equation [tex]x^3-0.2589x^{2}+0.02262x-0.001122=0[/tex] is x ≈ 0.162035

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the roots of the equation [tex]x^3-0.2589x^{2}+0.02262x-0.001122=0[/tex] you can use the Newton-Raphson method.

It is a way to find a good approximation for the root of a real-valued function f(x) = 0. The method starts with a function f(x) defined over the real numbers, the function derivative f', and an initial guess [tex]x_{0}[/tex] for a root of the function. It uses the idea that a continuous and differentiable function can be approximated by a straight line tangent to it.

This is the expression that we need to use

[tex]x_{n+1}=x_{n} -\frac{f(x_{n})}{f(x_{n})'}[/tex]

For the information given:

[tex]f(x) = x^3-0.2589x^{2}+0.02262x-0.001122=0\\f(x)'=3x^2-0.5178x+0.02262[/tex]

For the initial value [tex]x_{0}[/tex] you can choose [tex]x_{0}=0[/tex] although you can choose any value that you want.

So for approximation [tex]x_{1}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1}=x_{0}-\frac{f(x_{0})}{f(x_{0})'} \\x_{1}=0-\frac{0^3-0.2589\cdot0^2+0.02262\cdot 0-0.001122}{3\cdot 0^2-0.5178\cdot 0+0.02262} \\x_{1}=0.0496021[/tex]

Next, with [tex]x_{1}=0.0496021[/tex] you put it into the equation

[tex]f(0.0496021)=(0.0496021)^3-0.2589\cdot (0.0496021)^2+0.02262\cdot 0.0496021-0.001122 = -0.0005150[/tex], you can see that this value is close to 0 but we need to refine our solution.

For approximation [tex]x_{2}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2}=x_{1}-\frac{f(x_{1})}{f(x_{1})'} \\x_{1}=0-\frac{0.0496021^3-0.2589\cdot 0.0496021^2+0.02262\cdot 0.0496021-0.001122}{3\cdot 0.0496021^2-0.5178\cdot 0.0496021+0.02262} \\x_{1}=0.168883[/tex]

Again we put [tex]x_{2}=0.168883[/tex] into the equation

[tex]f(0.168883)=(0.168883)^3-0.2589\cdot (0.168883)^2+0.02262\cdot 0.168883-0.001122=0.0001307[/tex] this value is close to 0 but again we need to refine our solution.

We can summarize this process in the following table.

Answers

Answer:

solved

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculating i found the value of [tex]\frac{1}{128}[/tex]= 0.0078125

a.therefore the approximate valve of  [tex]\frac{1}{128}[/tex] (correct to three       decimal places) = 0.008

b. there are three significant digits in my approximation.

c. the absolute error = | exact value- approximate value |

   =|0.0078125- 0.008|= |-0.0001875| = 0.0001875

d.relative error= [tex]\frac{ absolute\ error}{exact\ value}[/tex]

    = [tex]\frac{0.0001875}{0.0078125}[/tex]= 0.024

A rectangle field has a perimeter of 220 meters and an area of 2856 square meters. What are the dimensions?

Answers

Answer:

The dimensions are 68 meters by 42 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x

Let the width be y

Perimeter = 220 meter

So, [tex]2x+2y=220[/tex]

or [tex]x+y=110[/tex] or [tex]x=110-y[/tex]    ...........(1)

Area = 2856 square meter

So, [tex]xy=2856[/tex]     ............(2)

Substituting the value of x from (1) in (2)

[tex](110-y)y=2856[/tex]

=> [tex]110y-y^{2}=2856[/tex]

=> [tex]y^{2}-110y+2856=0[/tex]

Solving this equation, we get roots as y = 68 and y = 42

So, if we put y = 68, we get x = 42

If we put y = 42, we get x = 68

As length is longer than width, we will take length = 68 meters and width = 42 meters.

Hence, the dimensions are 68 meters by 42 meters.

T F Any set of vectors containing the zero vector is linearly dependent

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B={[tex]v_1, v_2,\cdots,v_k,0[/tex]} a set of vectors containing the zero vector.

B is linear dependent if exist scalars [tex]a_0,a_1, a_2,\cdots,a_k[/tex] not all zero such that [tex]a_0*0+a_1*v_1+\cdots+a_k*v_k=0[/tex].

Observe that if [tex]a_1=a_2=\cdots=a_k=0[/tex] and [tex]a_0=\lambda\neq 0[/tex] then

[tex]\lambda*0+0*v_1+\cdots+0*v_k=0[/tex].

Then B is linear dependent.

Final answer:

True, any set of vectors that contains the zero vector is linearly dependent because a nontrivial combination of the vectors (including the zero vector scaled by any scalar) can produce the null vector.

Explanation:

True. Any set of vectors containing the zero vector is linearly dependent. This is because the null vector, which has all components equal to zero (0î + 0ç + 0k) and therefore no length or direction, can always be represented as a linear combination of other vectors in the set by simply scaling it by any scalar. In more technical terms, for a set of vectors that includes the zero vector, you can find a nontrivial combination (not all scalars being zero) such that when these scalars are applied to their respective vectors, their sum equals the zero vector. This is the very definition of linear dependency. For instance, if you consider any scalar 'a' not equal to zero, a∗0 + 0∗0 + ... + 0∗0 = 0, which demonstrates linear dependence because not all the scalars are zero (namely 'a' is not).

Linear independence would require that the only way to represent the zero vector as a linear combination of the set of vectors is to have all scalars that multiply each vector in the combination be zero. Since the set includes the zero vector itself, this condition is violated, and the set is dependent.

A pharmacist attempts to weigh 120 mg of codeine sulfate on a balance with a sensitivity requirement of 6 mg. Calculate the maximum potential error in terms of percentage.

Answers

Answer:

5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a pharmacist attempts to weigh 120 mg of codeine sulfate on a balance with a sensitivity requirement of 6 mg.

To find the maximum potential error, we need to figure out 6 mg is what percentage of 120 mg.

[tex]\text{The maximum potential error}=\frac{6}{120}\times 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\text{The maximum potential error}=0.05\times 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\text{The maximum potential error}=5\%[/tex]

Therefore, the maximum potential error is 5%.

f) [tex]404_{6}[/tex] and  [tex]410_{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The logics followed in order to find them:

Base numbers work exactly the same as base 10 numbers (the ones we use on a daily basis). Take for example, in a decimal system, we have 10 digits available:

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

when counting, when we get to the 9, we start over again, but writting a 1 to the left.

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12....20,21,22,23....,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100

when reaching 99, we have no more digits to use, so we start the count again and go from 99 to 100.

The same works with any other base number, take for example the base 7 numbet. When counting in base 7, we only have 7 digits available: (0,1,2,3,4,5,6) So when we re0_{7},ach the digit 6, we go immediately to 10, like this:

[tex]0_{7},1_{7},2_{7},3_{7},4_{7},5_{7},6_{7},10_{7},11_{7},12_{7},13_{7},14_{7},15_{7},16_{7},20_{7}...[/tex]

notice how it went from 6 to 10 and from 16 to 20. This is because in base 7, there is no such thing as digits from 7 to 9, so we don't have any other option to go directly to 20.

So, on part A) if we were working with decimal numbers, the  previous value for 640 would be 639, but notice that in base 7, there is no such thing as the digit 9, so the greatest digit we can use there would be 6, therefore, the previous value for the [tex]640_{7}[/tex] number would be [tex]636_{7}[/tex]. The next number would be [tex]641_{7}[/tex] because the 1 does exist for a base 7 system.

The same logics is followed for the rest of the problems.

One less than the given number is known as preceding number whereas one more than the given number is the succeeding number.

The logics followed in order to find them:

Base numbers work exactly the same as base 10 numbers (the ones we use on a daily basis). Take for example, in a decimal system, we have 10 digits available:

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

When counting, when we get to the 9, we start over again, but writing a 1 to the left.

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12....20,21,22,23....,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,10

When reaching 99, we have no more digits to use, so we start the count again and go from 99 to 100.

The same works with any other base number, take for example the base 7 number. When counting in base 7, we only have 7 digits available: (0,1,2,3,4,5,6) So when 0_{7},each the digit 6, we go immediately to 10, like this:

It went from 6 to 10 and from 16 to 20. This is because in base 7, there is no digits from 7 to 9, so we have directly to 20.

So, if working with decimal numbers, the previous value for 640 would be 639, but notice that in base 7,

There is no such thing as the digit 9, so the greatest digit we can use there 6,

Therefore, the previous value[tex]636_7[/tex] for the number would be [tex]636_7[/tex] . The next number would be [tex]632_7[/tex] because the 1 does exist for a base 7 system.

Answers

Answer:

Angle between the two vectors is 20.7718°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given two vectors are x = (1,2,3,4) and y = (4,2,4,5)

Now the dot product between two vector is defined as

x.y = ║x║║y║cosθ

Now, x.y( dot product of x and y) = 1×4 + 2×2 + 3×4 + 4×5 = 40

║x║= [tex]\sqrt{1+4+9+16}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{30}[/tex]

║y║= [tex]\SQRT{16+4+16+25} = \sqrt{61}[/tex] '

Thus, we get

40 = [tex]\sqrt{30}[/tex]×[tex]\sqrt{61}[/tex]×Cos θ

Thus, Cos θ = [tex]\frac{40}{\sqrt{30}\sqrt{61}}[/tex]

Three pirates must divide 100 gold doubloons. The doubloons cannot be cut into pieces. Pirate A is the strongest, followed by Pirate B, followed by Pirate C. Because of ancient pirate tradition, the coins are divided in the following manner. First Pirate A proposes a division of the coins. The three pirates then vote on whether to accept the proposed division. If the proposal gets a majority vote, it is accepted, and the game is over. If the proposal fails to get a majority vote, Pirate A is executed. It is then Pirate B's turn to propose a division of the coins between the two remaining pirates. The same rules apply, with one exception: if the vote is a tie, Pirate B, being the strongest remaining pirate, gets an additional vote to break the tie.
If we assume that in any proposal there are no doubloons left over, how many different proposals could Pirate A make?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]C^{102}_{100}=5151[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's imagine the following situation, if we want to distribute 100 coins between three pirates we could represent this situation with a line arrangement. For example if we had7 coins and 3 pirates one possible distribution of coins would be given by  CC|CCCC|C, the C's represent coins and the bars the boundaries between two pirates, for the particular line arrangement shown, we have that pirate A has 2 coins, B has 4 coins and C has a single coin. Another possible arrangement is,

|CCC|CCCC, where pirate A has no coin, pirate B has 3 coins and C has 7 coins. If we take notice of the fact that the arrangement representing a distribution is composed of 9 elements, that is 7 C's and 2 | (bars), then a way to make an arrangement would be to fill 9 empty boxes with our available coins and bars in all the possible ways. This means that if we first choose to fill 7 out of 9 boxes with  coins then the number of possible combinations is [tex]C^{9}_7=\frac{9!}{7!(9-7)!}36[/tex]. In general if we want to distribute n elements in k boxes, where the boxes can either be filled with any number of elements (including 0 number of elements), we have that the number of possible distributions will be [tex]C^{n+k-1}_{n}=\frac{(n+k-1)!}{n!(k-1)!}[/[tex], where we used the fact that we need k-q bars to represent k boxes. Thus pirate A can choose from [tex]C^{102}_{100}=5151[/tex] possible divisions.

Bonus:

If every pirate wants to have the maximum number of coins possible without being executed, here's how pirate A has to divide the coins in order to keep the largest amount of coins.

We have to think backwards to figure this out. Imagine pirate A was executed and there are only two remaining players. Pirate B should propose to keep all the coins, pirate C could oppose but pirate B's vote would break the vote and keep all the loot. Pirate A, B and C are all aware of this, so pirate A should propose to keep 99 coins and give the remaining gold piece to pirate C, Pirate B will of course oppose the division, but pirate C should accept because if not he would get no coins. Thus the division would be.

A: 99 coins

B: 0 coins

C: 1 coins

Ronna has volleyball practice every 4 days. Ronna also has violin lessons every 10 days. She has both activities today after school. When will she have both activities again on the same day?

Answers

Answer:

She have both activities again on 20th day from now.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :Ronna has volleyball practice every 4 days

         Ronna also has violin lessons every 10 days.

To Find : When will she have both activities again on the same day?

Solution:

We will find the LCM of 4 and 10

2  |   4 ,10

2  |   2 , 5

5  |   1  , 5

   |   1  ,  1

So, [tex]LCM = 2\times 2 \times 5[/tex]

Hence she have both activities again on 20th day from now.

If n is an odd, prime integer and 10n19, which is true about the mean of all possible values of n? 0 A. It is greater than the median and greater than the mode. O B. It is greater than the median. ○ C. It is equal to the median. D. It is less than the median.

Answers

Answer:

B. It is greater than the median.

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is an odd, prime integer and 10<n<19, then the true statements about the mean of all possible values of n are:

B. It is greater than the median.

Here, n can be 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18.

But as n is odd , it can be 11, 13, 15 and 17.

And also it is given that n is prime, so we will cancel out 15.

Now we are left with 11, 13 and 17.

Their mean is = [tex]\frac{11+13+17}{3}[/tex] = 13.66

Median is 13, that is smaller than 13.66.

So, we can see that the mean is greater than median.

Find m∠ABC. 20 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST FOR CORRECT ANSWER

A. 10°
B. 21°
C. 37°
D. 53°

Answers

5x+3+3x+7=90
8x+10=90
8x=80
x=10

Answer:A

The measure of angle ABC in the figure is 53 degrees.

Option D) 53° is the correct answer.

From the figure in the image;

Angle ABC and angle CBD are complementary angles, hence, their sum equals 180 degrees.

From the figure:

Angle ABC = ( 5x + 3 )

Angle CBD = ( 3x + 7 )

First, we solve for x:

Since the two angles are complementary:

Angle ABC + Angle CBD = 90

( 5x + 3 ) + ( 3x + 7 ) = 90

5x + 3x + 3 + 7 = 90

8x + 10 = 90

8x = 90 - 10

8x = 80

x = 80/8

x = 10

Now, we find the measure of angle ABC:

Angle ABC = ( 5x + 3 )

Plug in x = 10:

Angle ABC = 5(10) + 3

Angle ABC = 50 + 3

Angle ABC = 53°

Therefore, angle ABC measures 53 degrees.

The correct option is D) 53°

A test tube contains 25 bacteria, 5 of which are can stay alive for atleast 30 days, 10 of which will die in their second day. 10 of which are already dead.
Given that a randomly chosen bacteria for experiment is alive. What is the probability it will still be alive after one week?
(a)1 ⁄ 3(b)2 ⁄3
(c) 1⁄5 (d)4 ⁄5

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that a randomly selected bacterium that's currently alive will still be alive after one week is 1/3. The calculation is done by dividing the number of bacteria that can stay alive for at least 30 days by the total number of bacteria that are currently alive.

Explanation:

The question pertains to the concept of probability in mathematics and it's asking for the likelihood that a randomly chosen bacteria from a test tube would still be alive after one week. Given that 15 bacteria are alive (5 will stay alive for at least 30 days, and 10 will die on the second day), and you have chosen a bacterium that is currently alive. After one week (7 days), only the 5 that can stay alive for at least 30 days will still be alive.

As a result, the probability that the chosen bacterium will still be alive after one week can be calculated by dividing the number of bacteria that can stay alive for at least 30 days (5) by the total number of currently alive bacteria (15).

Probablitiy = number of favourable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
Therefore, the probability that it will still be alive after one week is 5 / 15 = 1/3.

Therefore, the answer is (a) 1/3.

If the sum of three vectors in R is zero, must they lie in the same plane? Explain.

Answers

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that sum of three vectors in [tex]R^3[/tex] is zero.

We have to tell and explain that if sum of three vectors in [tex]R^3[/tex] is zero then they must lie in the same plane or not.

We know that if three or more vectors lie in the same then they are coplanar.

If three vectors are co-planar then their scalar product is zero.

According to given condition

Let (x,0,0), (-x,0,0) and (0,0,0)

[tex]\vec{u}=x\hat{i}[/tex]

[tex]\vec{v}=-x\hat{i}[/tex]

[tex]\vec{w}=0[/tex]

Sum of three vectors=[tex](x-x+0)\hat{i}+(0+0+)\hat{j}+(0+0+0)\hat{k}=0[/tex]

[tex]u\cdot (v\times w)=\begin{vmatrix}x_1&y_1&z_1\\x_2&y_2&z_2\\x_3&y_3&z_3\end{vmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]u\cdot (v\times w)=\begin{vmatrix}x&0&0\\-x&0&0\\0&0&0\end{vmatrix}[/tex]

When all elements of one row or column are zero of square matrix A then det(A)=0

[tex]u\cdot (v\times w)=0[/tex]

Therefore, vectors u,v and w are co-planar.

Hence, if the sum of three vectors in [tex]R^3[/tex] is zero then they must lie in the same plane.

If the sum of three vectors in three-dimensional space is zero, they typically lie in the same plane, forming a triangle with their magnitudes and directions. They must also be linearly dependent since their linear combination can produce the zero vector.

If the sum of three vectors is zero in R^3 (three-dimensional space), it is a common situation for these vectors to lie in the same plane. This condition implies that they can be represented as three sides of a triangle taken in sequence in terms of magnitude and direction. If we consider two vectors in sequence, such as AB and BC, the third vector must be the closing side CA, taken in the opposite direction, in order to satisfy the triangle law of vector addition. In this case, the sum of vectors AB + BC + CA equals zero.

Furthermore, vectors are homogeneous when added, which means that they must have the same nature and dimension. However, three vectors can still form a linearly dependent set in three-dimensional space even if they lie in the same plane. For instance, if we take vectors a, b, and c, and if a linear combination of these vectors yields the zero vector (i.e., if we can find scalar coefficients x, y, and z such that xa + yb + zc = 0), then these vectors are not linearly independent and must lie in the same plane.

Lemma 2.3.2 (Multiplication is commutative). Let n,m be natural питbers. hen n x m = mхп.

Answer:

Multiplication is commutative.          

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n,m be two natural numbers.

We have to show that [tex]n\times m=m\times n[/tex]

We will prove this by induction

For n = 1, we have [tex]n\times 1 = 1\times n = n[/tex], which is true.

Let the given statement be true for n-1 natural numbers, that is,

[tex](n-1)\times m = m\times (n-1)[/tex]

Now, we have to show that it is true for n natural numbers.

[tex]nm = (n-1)m + m = m(n-1) + m[/tex]

which is equal to

[tex](m-1)(n-1) + (n-1) + m[/tex]

[tex]= (m-1)(n-1) + (m-1) + n[/tex]

[tex]= n(m-1) + n[/tex]

[tex]= (m-1)n + n[/tex]

[tex]= mn[/tex]

Hence, by principal of mathematical induction, the given statement is true for all natural numbers.

Answers

Answer:

a) The distance of the light's base from the bottom of the building is approximately: 5.2 ft

b) The length of the beam is approximately: 10.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to recognize that we may draw a right triangle to picture our problem. Then, in order to find out the distance of the light's base from the bottom of the building, we need to use the tangent trigonometric function:

tan(angle) = opposite side / adjacent side

We know the angle and the opposite side and we want to find the adjacent side:

adjacent side = opposite side / tan(angle) = 9 ft / tan(60°) = 9 ft / = 9 ft / 1.73 = 5.2 ft

In order to find the length of the light  beam, we use Pythagoras Theorem:

leg1²+leg2² = hyp²

Since the length of the beam corresponds to the hypotenuse and since we already know the length of the two legs, it is just a matter of substituting the values:

hyp = square_root(leg1²+leg2²) = square_root(9² + 5.2²) ft = square_root(108.4) ft = 10.4 ft
