the two lines y = x and x = - 6 intersect on the coordinate plane . if z represents the area of the figure formed by the intersecting lines and the x - axis , what is the side length of a cube whose surface area is equal to 6 z ?
"800 score official solution : the first step to solving this problem is to actually graph the two lines . the lines intersect at the point ( - 6 , - 6 ) and form a right triangle whose base length and height are both equal to 4 . as you know , the area of a triangle is equal to one half the product of its base length and height : a = ( 1 / 2 ) bh = ( 1 / 2 ) ( 6 Γ— 6 ) = 18 ; so z = 18 . the next step requires us to find the length of a side of a cube that has a face area equal to 18 . as you know the 6 faces of a cube are squares . so , we can reduce the problem to finding the length of the side of a square that has an area of 18 . since the area of a square is equal to s Β² , where s is the length of one of its side , we can write and solve the equation s Β² = 18 . clearly s = √ 18 = 3 √ 2 , oranswer choice ( b ) ."

on the coordinate plane , points p and u are defined by the coordinates ( - 1,0 ) and ( 3,3 ) , respectively , and are connected to form a chord of a circle which also lies on the plane . if the area of the circle is ( 25 / 4 ) Ο€ , what are the coordinates of the center of the circle ?
although it took me 3 mins to solve this question using all those equations , later i thought this question can be solved easily using options . one property to keep in mind - a line passing through the centre of the circle bisects the chord ( or passes from the mid point of the chord ) . now mid point of chord here is ( - 1 + 3 ) / 2 , ( 3 + 0 ) / 2 i . e . ( 1 , 1.5 ) now luckily we have this in our ans . choice . so definitely this is the ans . it also indictaes that pu is the diameter of the circle . there can be a case when pu is not a diameter but in that case also the y - coordinate will remain same as it is the midpoint of the chord and we are moving up in the st . line to locate the centre of the circle . if ans choices are all distinct ( y cordinates ) only check for y cordinate and mark the ans = d
