ExplanationHow to see if a shown graph is function or not?

If we want to check that a graph is function or not, we have a way to check by doing these steps.

Draw a vertical line, make sure that a line has to pass through or intercept a graph. See if a line intercepts a graph more than once.

If a line intercepts a graph only one point, a graph is indeed a function. Otherwise, not a function but a relation instead. That includes if a line intercepts more than a point which doesn't make a graph a function.

From the graph, if we follow these steps, we will see that a line will only pass or intercept the graph only one point. Hence, the graph is indeed a function. The following graph that is shown is called "Parabola" for a < 0.

Answer

The graph is a function.

answer: $\frac{sin40^{\circ}}{x} = \frac{sin60^{\circ}}{12}$

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

$\frac{sin40^{\circ}}{x} = \frac{sin60^{\circ}}{12}$

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

$\frac{x}{sin40^{\circ}}= \frac{12}{sin60^{\circ}}$

$x= 12\times \frac{sin40^{\circ}}{sin60^{\circ}}$

$x= 12\times 0.74222719896$

$x= 8.90672638762\approx 8.967$

Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12
