Answer:i think its 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -2; or x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the quadratic function by completing the square. What are the missing pieces in the steps? -32=2(x^2+10)
-32+___=2(x2+10x+25)
18=2(x+5)^2
9=(x+5)^2
+-___=x+5
X=-2 or x=___
Solution:
From the first line:
-32+___=2(x2+10x+25)
Also, in the second line:
18=2(x+5)^2
Let the missing piece on line 2 be a, hence:
x² + 10x + 25 = (x + 5)² and -32 + a = 18
a = 18 + 32 = 50
-32 + 50 =2(x²+10x+25)
18 = 2(x+5)²
Dividing through by 2:
18 / 2= [2(x+5)² / 2]
9 = (x + 5)²
Taking square root of both sides:
√9 = √(x + 5)²
± 3 = x+5
Simplifying the equation to get:
3 = x + 5; -3 = x + 5
x = 3 - 5; or x = -3 - 5
x = -2; or x = -8
<u>Solution-</u>
Given that,
In the parallelogram PQRS has PQ=RS=8 cm and diagonal QS= 10 cm.
Then considering ΔPQT and ΔSTF,
1- ∠FTS ≅ ∠PTQ ( ∵ These two are vertical angles)
2- ∠TFS ≅ ∠TPQ ( ∵ These two are alternate interior angles)
3- ∠TSF ≅ ∠TQP ( ∵ These two are also alternate interior angles)
<em>If the corresponding angles of two triangles are congruent, then they are said to be similar and the corresponding sides are in proportion.</em>
∴ ΔFTS ∼ ΔPTQ, so corresponding side lengths are in proportion.

As QS = TQ + TS = 10 (given)
If TS is x, then TQ will be 10-x. Then putting these values in the equation



∴ So TS = 3.85 cm and TQ is 10-3.85 = 6.15 cm
