Using equations to solve the word problem, Katherine's age is 8 years

<h3>Word Problem</h3>

Word problem are often mathematical problem that are represented in words and sometimes can be solved using an equation.

To solve this problem, we have to represent the problem using mathematical equations;

Let;

Katherine's age = x²

Alexandra = 5(x + 1)

Sum of their age = 109

5(x + 1) + x² = 109

5x + 5 + x² = 109

x² + 5x - 104 = 0

Solving for the equation; x = 8

Katherine's age is 8

What are all the shapes my quadrilateral Must be and could be if it has a pair of equal sides and a pair of parallel sides
masha68 [24]

If the parallel sides are the same length, then the figure must be a parallelogram. You can prove this by dividing the parallelogram into two triangles, and then using SAS (side angle side) to prove the triangles congruent, which leads to you showing the corresponding angles are the same measure, therefore the other set of sides must be parallel as well.

Or

If the non parallel sides are the same length, then you have an isosceles trapezoid. A trapezoid is any figure with exactly one pair of parallel sides. An isosceles trapezoid is one where the non-parallel sides are the same length. The non-parallel sides are sometimes considered the legs of the trapezoid (and the parallel sides are the bases).

Or

If you have two adjacent sides that are same length, and you have one set of parallel sides, then you could have a trapezoid (not isosceles but just a more generalized trapezoid)

Need help with Trig fast
Andreas93 [3]

Given:

A figure of a right angle triangle.

To find:

The value of Tan R.

Solution:

Trigonometric Ratio: In a right angle triangle,

\tan \theta =\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}

Using the above trigonometric ratio in the given triangle, we get

Tan R =\dfrac{AD}{AR}

Tan R =\dfrac{13}{17}

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Conditional probabilities are based on some event occurring given that something else has already occurred?
alex41 [277]

The answer is true. A conditional probability is a measure of the probability of an event given that (by assumption, presumption, assertion or evidence) another event has occurred. If the event of interest is A and the event B is known or assumed to have occurred, "the conditional probability of A given B", or "the probability of A in the condition B", is usually written as P (A|B). The conditional probability of A given B is well-defined as the quotient of the probability of the joint of events A and B, and the probability of B.
