Explanation Formula used: Equivalent forms of the Pythagorean theorem : c = a 2 + b 2 a = c 2 − b 2 b = c 2 − a 2 Calculation: Note that in the given figure, the hypotenuse is unknown. Substitute a = 11 and b = 4 in c = a 2 + b 2 to get the length of the hypotenuse

(3) (4 points) Given three vectors a, b, and c, suppose: |bx c = 2 |a|=√√8 • The angle between a and b xc is 0 = 135º. . Calculate the volume a (bxc) of the parallelepiped spanned by the three vectors.

Calculate these limits. If the limit is ∞ or -∞, write infinity or-infinity. If the limit does not exist, write DNE: Hint: Remember the first thing you check when you are looking at a limit of a quotient is the limit value of the denominator. 1. If the denominator does not go to 0, you should be able to right down the answer immediately. 2. If the denominator goes to 0, but the numerator does not, you will have to check the sign (±) of the quotient, from both sides if the limit is not one-sided. 3. If both the numerator and the denominator go to 0, you have to do the algebraic trick of rationalizing. So, group your limits into these three forms and work with them one group at a time.
