Answer:
∠ WZX = 50°
XW is not an altitude.
Step-by-step explanation:
16. See the attached figure.
XW is the angle bisector of ∠ YXZ, hence, ∠ WXY = ∠ WXZ
Now, given that ∠ YXZ = 8x + 34 and ∠ WXY = 10x - 13
Hence, ∠ YXZ = 2 ∠ WXY
⇒ 8x + 34 = 2(10x - 13)
⇒ 8x + 34 = 20x - 26
⇒ 12x = 60
⇒ x = 5.
Hence, ∠ XZY = ∠ WZX = 10x = 50° (Answer)
Now, ∠ WXZ = ∠ WXY = 10x - 13 = 37°
Hence, from Δ WXZ,
∠ WZX + ∠ WXZ + ∠ XWZ = 180°
⇒ 50° + 37° + ∠ XWZ = 180°
⇒ ∠ XWZ = 93° ≠ 90°
Hence, XW is not an altitude. (Answer)
Answer:
x = 1 ±2sqrt(5)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2-4x-9=29
Add 9 to each each side
2x^2-4x-9+9=29+9
2x^2-4x=38
Divide by 2
2/2x^2-4/2x=38/8
x^2 -2x =19
Complete the square
x^2 -2x + (-2/2)^2 = 19 +(-2/2)^2
x^2 -2x +1 = 19+1
(x-1)^1=2 = 20
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-1)^2) = ±sqrt(20)
x-1 = ±sqrt(20)
Add 1 to each side
x-1+1 = 1 ±sqrt(20)
x = 1 ±sqrt(20)
Simplifying the square root of 20
x = 1 ±sqrt(4)sqrt(5)
x = 1 ±2sqrt(5)
<span>To convert a percentage to a decimal you move the decimal two places to the left. Therefore:
15.% becomes .15
You then multiply this decimal to the number you are trying to find the percentage of.
.15 × 60 = 9.
9 is 15% of 60.
