Point A is the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of ΔDEF.
1 answer:
The correct answer is option A which is ZA = 3 cm
<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>Triangle is a shape made of three sides in a two-dimensional plane. the sum of the three angles is 180 degrees.
The triangle is shown below.
From the triangle, A is the concurrency point of angle bisectors of all vertices.
Consider ΔAYD,
Using the Pythagorean theorem,
AD² = AY² + YD²
5² = AY² + 4²
25 = AY² + 16
AY² = 25 - 16
AY² = 9
AY = √9 = 3 cm
Consider triangles ADY and ADZ.
∠AYD ≅∠AZD=90
∠ADY≅∠ADZ ( Angle bisector)
AD ≡ AD (common side)
The two triangles are congruent by the AAS postulate.
Therefore, by CPCTE, AY=ZA=3 cm

Answer:
The value of x would be or
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
x tons of 10% gravel G mixture is mixed with y ton of 2% gravel G to obtain 5% gravel mixture,
Thus, gravel G in x ton + gravel in y ton = gravel G in the resultant mixture,
⇒ 0.1x + 0.02y = 0.05(x+y),
0.1x - 0.05x = 0.05y - 0.02y
0.05x = 0.03y
Now, resultant mixture is z ton,
i.e.
From equation (1),
