How do you figure asphalt tons to sq ft?

Approximately 721 Kg/CuM or 1586 pounds per cubic meter or 121 pounds per cubic foot or 20 pounds per square foot of 2".

This IS crushed Asphalt. There or various types.

source- http://www.contractortalk.com/f83/weight-asphalt-46232/

so one ton of asphalt would make 100 square feet of 2" thick pavement.

What are the ways to name an angle?

The VERTEX of the angle is always in the middle... so if it is angle ABC, then you can also name it CBA as long as the vertex letter is in the middle, usually there are only 2 ways to name an angle.

Also, if there aren't any other angles with the same vertex, you can just call angle ABC, angle B.

Summary: If you have an angle:
  • the vertex is labeled B, the others are A and C. what can you call the angle?
  • Answer: ABC,CBA or B

What is the formula for finding the volume of a triangular prism?

The formula to find the area of a triangular prism is 1/2 bhl, where b represents the length of the base of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle, and l is the length between the triangles.

Where did the word character come from?

The word character can be dated back to the ancient Greek word kharackter. This later developed into the French word charatre.

What is the meaning of powers and roots in complex numbers?

The meanings are the same but getting the answers use different rules. Ex:

1. None complex-(x+y)^2=xx+yy+2xy and is a family of parallel lines.

2. Complex-(x+iy)^2 Now notice the "i operator" and how it is used in the computation. (x+iy)(x+iy)=xx+i2xy+iiyy. Now i=(-1)^.5, so ii=-1 and so we have

xx-yy+i2xy. If we graph this out, we get families of parabolas at right angles to

each other. The (xx-yy) are the real and at right angles to the i2xy, the imaginaries.

Maybe somebody else can tackle the roots.

What is the definition of a plane in geometry?

In geometry, a plane is a flat two-dimensional "surface" (similar to a sheet of paper, but with no thickness and no finite length or width). A plane is defined by three points, each of which forms a line with the other two points within the plane. In three dimensions, the simplest version of a plane would include all of the points with any x and y value that contain the same value for z.
A plane is a flat surface or a 2-dimensional object, stretching to infinity in all directions.

How do you find the angle of trajectory to hit a point at a different height with a set velocity?

How do you find the angle of trajectory to hit a point at a different height with a set velocity? You will need to know the horizontal distance to the point!! Think about it. The farther it is to the point, the greater the velocity has to be. The maximum distance for any set velocity is at an angle of 45º. If the velocity is too small, the object will not reach the point no matter even at 45º. So I will use Dh to be the horizontal distance to the point.

I will send you this tonight, but tomorrow I will input values for the velocity, the different height, and the distance horizontal. I will send it again if I find any mistakes.

V = set velocity

Different height =Distance vertical =Dv

Eq. #1 Total distance moved = Vi* t + ½ * at^2

When an object is thrown up into the air, a = acceleration due to gravity =g = -9.8m/s^2

Eq. #2 Distance vertical = V * sin θ* time - (½ * 9.8 * t^2)

½ * 9.8 = 4.9

You can substitute the values of Dv into Eq. #3, to reduce the number of variables. However, I will continue to derive the total equation for the angle.

Eq. #3 Dv = (V * sin θ* t) - (4.9 * t^2)

Range = Distance horizontal = Dh

Eq. #4 Distance horizontal = V * cos θ * time

You can substitute the values of Dh into Eq. #5, to reduce the number of variables. However, I will continue to derive the total equation for the angle.

Eq. #5 Dh = V * cos θ * t

If we solve both equations for V and set them equal to each other, we can solve for t. The time is the same for the Dh and Dv, because these distances are the same for the same one and only object.

From Eq. #3, Dv = (V * sin θ* t) - (4.9 * t^2)

Eq. #6 Dv + (4.9 * t^2) = V * sin θ* t

Eq. #7 V = [ Dv + (4.9 * t^2) ] ÷ (sin θ* t )

From Eq. #5 Dh= V * cos θ * t

Eq. #8 V = Dh ÷ (cos θ * t)

We have 2 equations equal to V. set them equal to each other.

Eq. #9 [ Dv + (4.9 * t^2) ] ÷ (sin θ* t ) = Dh ÷ (cos θ * t)

You may not believe this, but the equation above is a proportion!!

Cross multiply

[ Dv + (4.9 * t^2) ] * (cos θ * t) =Dh * (sin θ * t)

I see factor of t on both sides. Cancel it out.

Eq. #10 [ Dv + (4.9 * t^2) ] * (cos θ) =Dh * (sin θ)

I can multiply (cos θ) * Dv + (4.9 * t^2) ] =

Eq. #11 (Dv * (cos θ) + (cos θ) * 4.9 * t^2) = Dh * (sin θ)

I need t on the left side

Eq. #12 (cos θ) * 4.9 * t^2) = Dh * (sin θ) - (Dv * (cos θ)

Now we will divide both sides by (cos θ * 4.9)

Eq. #13 t^2 = (Dh *sin θ - Dv * cos θ) ÷ (cos θ * 4.9)

You know the value Dh and Dv in Eq. #13.

Solve for t = [(Dh *sin θ - Dv * cos θ) ÷ (cos θ * 4.9)]^0.5

(Square root of t^2)

Eq. #14 t = [(Dh *sin θ - Dv * cos θ) ÷ (cos θ * 4.9)]^0.5

Now substitute the value of Dh, V, and t into the Eq. #5 and find cosθ.

Eq. #5 Dh = V * cos θ * t

Eq. #15 cos θ = Dh ÷ (V * t)

cos θ = Dh ÷ (V * t)

Eq. #16 cos θ = Dh ÷ [ V * [(Dh * sin θ - Dv * cos θ) ÷ (cos θ * 4.9)]^0.5]

Eq. #17 θ = cos^-1 [Dh ÷ [ V * [(Dh * sin θ - Dv * cos θ) ÷ (cos θ * 4.9)]^0.5] ]

The motion of the baseball is parabolic. So, the ball was at the different height twice as it moved along the parabola. The different height would be occurs at 2 places as the baseball follows the parabolic path, once on the way up and once on the way down. The value of the distance horizontal determines the answer; up or down A short Dh would produce a small value of t and a large value of Dh would produce a large value of t.

From Eq. #9 [ Dv + (4.9 * t^2) ] ÷ (sin θ * t ) = Dh ÷ (cos θ * t), we can see that Dh only affects time.

That is why Dh is so critical to the answer for θ.

How many edges are in a octohedron?

An octahedron (not octohedron) is a polyhedron with 8 faces. There are 257 distinct topological octahedrons and the number of vertices and edges varies.

For example, an octahedron in the form of a quadrilateral based bipyramid has only 12 edges whereas a hexagonal prism has 18.

How are geometry and trigonometry different?

Geometry is the study of spatial properties (shapes, sizes, etc.), while trigonometry is the study of triangles and the relationships between angles and lengths.

How do you learn cos sin and tan formulas?

I guess you are meaning the standard trigonometric ratios regarding the cos/sin/tan of angles in a right angled triangle.

I was taught this little rhyme:

Two Old Arabs

Soft Of Heart

Coshed Andy Hatchett

Using the initial letters of each of the words:

T O A

S O H

C A H

Gives:

Tan = Opposite / Adjacent

Sin = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cos = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Later I met the nonsense word SOHCAHTOA (pronounced So-ka-toe-ah or Sock-a-toe-ah) in which the letters are the ratios as before and which is slightly more useful in that in that order it gives a reminder that Sin/Cos = Tan. However, it does require being able to spell the unusual "word".

Because in both cases their diagonals cross at right angles

So their areas are: 0.5*product of diagonals

What is change in math?

Change is usually the value of an expression before some operation subtracted from the value after the operation. Occasionally, subtraction may be replaced by division.

How do you put in sine on a calculator?

Most scientific calculators come with a button that says SIN, or they have it under a secondary option usually accessed by pressing the SHIFT or 2ND first then the key sub labeled SIN.

They are living "things" from a space of more dimensions than the 3 dimensions of space and 1 of time that we live in and are aware of.

How do you calculate arc sine?

arc sine is the inverse function of the sine function so if y = sin(x) then x = arcsin(y) where y belongs to [-pi/2, pi/2].

It can be calculated using the Taylor series given in the link below.
