To find the area of a triangle you need the formula (base*height)/2.  We know the base is 25in however we need to find the height to have everything for the formula. If you draw a picture of this equilateral triangle so the bottom is a flat side, the height goes straight up the middle, splitting the triangle into two equal pieces.  However, to find the height, you have to use Pythagoras's theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2).  c is the hypotenuse so that is the 25in, a is half the width of the base, 12.5in, and b is what you are looking for.  When solved, b becomes about 21.65, or if you have to be exact- sqrt{468.75}.  Then plug this in for the height in the original equation.
(25*sqrt{468.75})/2≈270.63 in^2

In a new video game, Franky had -16 1/2 points. He was able to earn 3/4 of the points he lost back. How many points did he have?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

slightly confused on the wording if he got back 3/4 from 16.5 then he earned back 12.375 points

if -16.5 is the 1/4 he didnt get back then he had 66 points

the bases of a trapezoid are 8 and 6 inches it's height is 5 inches what is the area of the trapezoid?​
Fantom [35]

Answer:

35 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is the average of the bases times the height.

Base 1: 8, Base 2: 6, Height: 5

(8 + 6)/2 = 7

7 * 5 = 35 in^2

Can somebody explain how these would be done? The selected answer is incorrect, and I was told "Nice try...express the product b
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Solution ( Second Attachment ) : - 2.017 + 0.656i

Solution ( First Attachment ) : 16.140 - 5.244i

Step-by-step explanation:

Second Attachment : The quotient of the two expressions would be the following,

6\left[\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi \:}{5}\right)\right] ÷ 2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right]

So if we want to determine this expression in standard complex form, we can first convert it into trigonometric form, then apply trivial identities. Either that, or we can straight away apply the following identities and substitute,

( 1 ) cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x)

( 2 ) sin(x) = cos(π / 2 - x)

If cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x), then cos(2π / 5) = sin(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = sin(π / 10). Respectively sin(2π / 5) = cos(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = cos(π / 10). Let's simplify sin(π / 10) and cos(π / 10) with two more identities,

( 1 ) \cos \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1+\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}

( 2 ) \sin \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}

These two identities makes sin(π / 10) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}, and cos(π / 10) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}.

Therefore cos(2π / 5) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}, and sin(2π / 5) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}. Substitute,

6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right] ÷ 2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right]

Remember that cos(- π / 2) = 0, and sin(- π / 2) = - 1. Substituting those values,

6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right] ÷ 2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right]

And now simplify this expression to receive our answer,

6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right] ÷ 2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right] = -\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}+\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}i,

-\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4} = -2.01749\dots and \:\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4} = 0.65552\dots

= -2.01749+0.65552i

As you can see our solution is option c. - 2.01749 was rounded to - 2.017, and 0.65552 was rounded to 0.656.

________________________________________

First Attachment : We know from the previous problem that cos(2π / 5) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}, sin(2π / 5) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}, cos(- π / 2) = 0, and sin(- π / 2) = - 1. Substituting we receive a simplified expression,

6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}-6i\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}

We know that 6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}} = 16.13996\dots and -\:6\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}} = -5.24419\dots . Therefore,

Solution : 16.13996 - 5.24419i

Which rounds to about option b.
