Answer:

x = 5.67

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a right angled triangle with a length of the hypotenuse 8 with the remaining two sides (base and perpendicular) that are equal to each other.

Assuming the two equal legs of this right angled triangle to be x, we can use the Pythagoras Theorem to find the value of x.

$(x)^2+(x)^2=(8)^2$

$2x^2=64$

Taking square root at both the sides to get:

$\sqrt{2x^2} =\sqrt{64}$

$1.41x=8\\\\x=5.67$

Therefore, x = 5.67.

Which glide reflection describes the mapping ABC DEF

almond37 [142]

Answer:

1. Reflect ABC about the line AC and then translate 1 unit to the right.

2. Translate ABC 1 unit to the right and then reflect it about the line AC.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

ABC is transformed using glide reflection to map onto DEF.

Since, we know,

'Glide Reflection' is the transformation involving translation and reflection.

So, we can see that,

ABC can be mapped onto DEF by any of the following glide reflections:

1. Reflect ABC about the line AC and then translate 1 unit to the right.

2. Translate ABC 1 unit to the right and then reflect it about the line AC.

Hence, any of the two glide reflection will map ABC onto DEF.

Solve 4/x-4=x/x-4-4/3 for x and determine if the solution is extraneous or not

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

x = 4 (extraneous solution)

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac { 4 } { x - 4 } = \frac { x } { x - 4 } - \frac { 4 } { 3 } \\ \frac { 4 } { x - 4 } - \frac { x } { x - 4 } = - \frac { 4 } { 3 } \\ \frac { 4 - x } { x - 4 } = - \frac { 4 } { 3 } \\ 3 ( 4 - x ) = - 4 ( x - 4 ) \\ 1 2 - 3 x = - 4 x + 1 6 \\ 4 x - 3 x = 1 6 - 1 2 \\ x = 4 \\$

This solution is extraneous. Reason being that even if it can be solved algebraically, it is still not a valid solution because if we substitute back $x=4$ , we will get two fractions with zero denominator which would be undefined.
