Answer:

y=\frac{96}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

So when x and y, vary inversely, it means that the product of x and y will remain constant such that: xy=c. This means that the function can be defined as y=\frac{c}{x} by dividing both sides by x. In this case x=12, and y=8, this means the constant is equal to 12 * 8 which is 96. So we have the equation:  xy = 96, which can be defined as y=\frac{96}{x}

If you know the measure of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle, how do you find out the measure of the base angles?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle has 2 sides that are the same length.  Let's say that our triangle has the 2 sides measuring the same and the base is a different length.  The vertex angle is the top angle.  By the definition of an isosceles triangle, since the 2 sides measure the same length, then the angles across from those sides have the same degree measure.  If we know the measure of the vertex angle, then we have

180 = vertex angle - base angle - base angle

but since the base angles are the same and we have 2 of them, then

180 = vertex angle - 2 base angles

For example, if the vertex angle measures 80 degrees, then 180 - 80 = 100.  That 100 has to be split in half for each of the base angles which are the same as each other.  So the vertex angle is 80 and each base is 50.

What is the value of?
katrin [286]

Answer:

70 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angles of a triangle have to add up to 180 degrees, you know that the third angle of the triangle on the left would be 180 - 60 - 65 = 55 degrees. Then, since the angles on a straight line have to add up to 180 degrees you could find one of the two missing angles of the second triangle by doing

180 - 55 - 50 = 75.

Then, you have 2 out of the 3 angles of the triangle on the right and you can find the third, the ?, by doing 180 - 75 - 35 = 70 degrees
