To get the distance DC we proceed as follows:
AB-CD
=11-3
=8
BC=15
hence using Pythagorean theorem
c²=a²+b²
c=DC
a=BC
b=8
thus
c²=15²+8²
c²=225+64
c²=289
thus
c=√289
c=17 units
Answer: B. 17 units
Answer:
54
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer for part a: 10 centimeters
answer for part b: 13.9 inches
Answer:
x = 78
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at Triangle DBH. Two of its angles are known. Let y = <DHB
47 + 31 + y = 180 All triangles have 180 degrees. Combine the left.
78 + y = 180 Subtract 78 from both sides.
78-78+y = 180-78 Combine
y = 102
Notice that y + x = 180 They form a straight line.
102 + x = 180 Subtract 102 from both sides.
x = 78
You should notice that x is an exterior angle. (I didn't at first).
Exterior angles are the sum of the two remote interior angles which in this case, are 31 + 47 = 78
Much shorter and much easier.
Answer:
y = (-5/7) x + 1
Explanation:
The slope-intercept form of the line has the following formula:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope
c is the y-intercept
The given is:
5x + 7y = 7
To put this in slope-intercept form, we will need to isolate the y as follows:
5x + 7y = 7
7y = -5x + 7
y = (-5/7) x + (7/7)
y = (-5/7) x + 1
where:
m is the slope = -5/7
c is the y-intercept = 1
Hope this helps :)
