What are HK and GH?

Mathematics
1 answer:
tigry1 [53]2 years ago
6 0

The triangles are similar triangles, and the values of HK and GH are (b) 4 and 2√5, respectively

<h3>How to determine the length HK?</h3>

The triangles are similar triangles, and they are represented by the following similarity ratio:

GK : HK = HK : JK

From the question, we have:

GK = 2 and JK = 8

So, we have:

2 : HK = HK : 8

Express as fractions

\frac{2}{HK} = \frac{HK}{8}

Cross multiply

HK² = 16

Take the positive square root of both sides

HK = 4

The length GH is calculated using the following Pythagoras theorem

GH² = GK² + HK²

This gives

GH² = 2² + 4²

Evaluate the squares

GH² = 20

Solve for GH

GH = 2√5

Hence, the values of HK and GH are (b) 4 and 2√5, respectively

Find the area bounded by the graphs of the indicated equations over the given interval.
NeX [460]

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 0

is basically the horizontal axis.

First, find the integral of x^2-25.

Remember that

integral of a constant is that constant times x.

Also that

to take the integral of a power function, add 1 to the degree and divide by that same degree.

y =  {x}^{2}  - 25

We then get

\frac{ {x}^{3} }{3}  - 25x

Evaluate at -3

\frac{ - 3 {}^{3} }{3}  - 25( - 3)

- 27 + 75 = 48

Then we evaluate at 0

\frac{0 {}^{3} }{3}  - 25(0) = 0

Next, we subtract the the answer then we get

48 - 0 = 48

What is 817.502 rounded to the nearest whole number?
kotegsom [21]
If a number has a decimal that is .5+, you round up. If it is .4-, you round down. So 817.502 would be 818.

What is the value of x ??? in trapezoid ABCD?? <br> HELP ASAP
Alexeev081 [22]
It would be 15 because the way you would set it up is equal to 180 because they are opposite and they have to add up to 180 in order for the whole shape to be 360. so 3x+9x=180 and then 12x=180 and divide 180 by 12 which is 15 and you can also plug in 15 to check
