Answer:
x = y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
A right triangle with a 45° angle is an isosceles right triangle. That means the legs are both the same length. The side ratios of such a triangle are ...
1 : 1 : √2
Multiplying these ratios by 12 gives ...
12 : 12 : 12√2 = x : y : 12√2
The side lengths x and y are both 12 units.
Let's start by writing a system of linear equations:
c -> cookies
cb -> candy bars
(You can use any abbreviations to your preference)
Abby:
4 cookies
3 candy bars
$10.25 per bag
The equation would be:
4c+ 3cb = $10.25
Marissa:
2 cookies
7 candy bars
$14.75 per bag
The equation would be:
2c + 7cb = $14.75
So our linear equation system would be:
<span>4c+ 3cb = $10.25
</span><span>2c + 7cb = $14.75
I would try to get rid of one variable so I can solve for the other variable. In this case, it is easier to get rid of c since I can multiply the second equations by 2. Then it would subtract the two equations.
(2c + 7cb = $14.75) 2 = 4c + 14 cb = $29.50
4c + 3cb = $10.25
- 4c+14 cb = $29.50 (4c would get canceled.)
---------------------------------
-11 cb = - $19.25 (Divide by -11 to solve for cb)
</span> --------- -------------
-11 -11
cb = $1.75
Now we know cb (candy bar) cost, we would substitute this value into cb into one of the equations. It doesn't matter which equation you put it in. I will substitute it in the first equations.
4c + 3 (1.75) = $10.25
4c + 5.25 = $10.25 (Multiply 3 by 1.75)
-5.25 -5.25 (Subtract 5.25 on both sides)
4c = 5 (Divide by 4 on both sides to get c)
---- ---
4 4
c= 1.25
Check the work:
4(1.25) + 3(1.75)
= $10.25
2(1.25) + 7(1.75)
= $14.75
Total cost:
cookies = $1.25
candy bars = $ 1.75
Hope this helps! :)
The answer is Side RQ corresponds to side QQ'. 100% sure and please feel free to ask more.
An isosceles right triangle is composed of a right angle and two congruent acute angles. In this case, 90 + 2x = 180 where x is the acute angle. x is equal to 45 degrees. Using sine law, 8/sin 90 = y / sin 45 where y is the leg of the triangle. the leg's length is equal to 4 sqrt 2.
