Answer:

12, 8, and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Given

a + d + a + a - d = 24

3a = 24   ⇒  [ a = 8 ]  

and (a + d)² + a² + (a - d)² = 224

3a² + 2d² = 224

2d² = 224 - 192 = 32

d² = 16

[ d = ±4 ]

∴ The first three terms to A.P are

a + d = 8 + 4 = 12

a  -  = 8

a - d = 8 - 4 = 4

∴ Three terms are 12 , 8, and 4

Find each measurement indicated. Round your answer as the nearest tenth. HELP PLEASE!!!!!! URGENT
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

(1) length AB = 21.0

(2) length BC = 45.0

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) To determine AB, apply Cosine rule;

|AB|^2 = |AC|^2 + |BC|^2 \ - \ 2[|AC| \times |BC]cos \ C\\\\|AB|^2 = 13^2 + 29^2 \ - \ 2(13 \times 29) cos(41)\\\\|AB|^2 = 1010 - 569.05\\\\|AB|^2 = 440.95\\\\|AB|= \sqrt{ 440.95} \\\\|AB| = 21.0

(2) To determine BC, also apply cosine rule;

|BC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |AC|^2 \ - \ 2[|AB| \times |AC]cos \ A\\\\|BC|^2 = 30^2 + 21^2 \ - \ 2(30 \times 21) cos(123)\\\\|BC|^2 = 1341 - (-686.245)\\\\|BC|^2 = 1341 + 686.245\\\\ |BC| = 2027.245\\\\|BC|= \sqrt{ 2027.245} \\\\|BC| = 45.0

Given that the two triangles are similar, solve for x if AU = 20x + 108, UB = 273, BC = 703, UV = 444, AV = 372 and AC = 589. Yo
stellarik [79]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the ratios between the two triangles

We'll use AV and AC

372 ÷ 589 = 12/19

All of the sides of the smaller triangle are 12/19 of the bigger triangle

Now let's find x

We know that AU + UB = AB

So it's 20x + 108 + 273 = AB

12/19 of a bigger triangle side equals a small triangle side

(12/19)AB = AU

For this equation multiply both sides by 19/12 to isolate AB

(12/19)AB x 19/12 = AU x 19/12

AB = (19/12)AU

Now we have this

20x + 108 + 273 = (19/12)(20x + 108)

20x + 381 = (19/12)(20x + 108)

Distribute the 19/12

20x + 381 = 95/3x + 171

Move all like terms to one side

20x + 381 = 95/3x + 171

       - 171                 - 171

20x + 210 = 95/3x

- 20x           - 20x

Don't forget about common denominators

210 = 95/3x - 60/3x

210 = 35/3x

Multiply both sides by 3

210 x 3 = 35/3x x 3

630 = 35x

Divide both sides by 35

630/35 = 35x/35

x = 18
