The answer is: 36

Because, bisecting the base of the triangle gives of two segments of five. This forms two triangles with base of 5 and altitude (in this case height) of 12. There exists a special pythagorean triplet triangled named 5-12-13 meaning if you have a right triangle with two of these sides then the unknown side is the number left out. In this case, the altitude forms a right angle on the base which allows the sides of the big isocs. triangle to be 13 giving us 13 + 13 + 10 to be the perimeter = 36.

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are 2 and -4 and whose leading coefficient is 2
Goryan [66]

Answer:

2x^2+4x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic can be written as

f(x) = a(x-z1)(x-z2) where z1 and z2 are the roots

f(x) = a (x-2)(x- -4)

a is the leading coefficient

f(x) = 2(x-2)(x+4)

     = 2(x^2 -2x+4x-8)

     = 2(x^2 +2x-8)

     = 2x^2 +4x-16

If PR = 5x – 3 and QS = 3x – 5 and QS == PR, what are the length of the<br> diagonals?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 3 = 2(3x - 5)

5x - 3 = 6x - 10

6x - 5x = 10 - 3

x = 7

QS = 3(7) - 5 = 16 units

PR = 5 × 7 - 3 = 32 units
