The distance from E to side AD is 25/13.

<h3>What is a distance?</h3>
  • The length of the line connecting two places is the distance between them.
  • If the two points are on the same horizontal or vertical line, the distance can be calculated by subtracting the non-identical values.

To find what is the distance from E to side AD:

  • If you draw a diagram, you'll see that triangle AEB is a right triangle with lengths 5, 12, and 13.
  • Let's call F the point where E meets side AD, so the problem is to find the length of EF.
  • By Angle-Angle Similarity, triangle AFE is similar to triangle BEA. (the right angles are congruent, and both angle FAE and ABE are complementary to angle BAE)
  • Since they're similar, the ratios of their side lengths are the same.
  • EF/EA = EA/AB (they're corresponding side lengths of similar triangles).

Substitute them with known lengths:

  • EF/5 = 5/13
  • EF = 5 × (5/13) = 25/13

Therefore, the distance from E to side AD is 25/13.

The correct answer is given below:
Square ABCD has side lengths of 13 units. Point E lies in the interior of the square such that AE=5 units and BE=12 units. What is the distance from E to side AD? Express your answer as a mixed number.

Which of the following ratios is used in finding the sine of an angle in a right triangle?
stira [4]
The ratio is called the Opposite leg or also known as Hypotenuse. Usually, in a right angle, the size of the one angle is 90 degrees while the other which is less than 90 degrees is called the hypotenuse. It is the opposite side of the angle measured 90 degrees

Peter has twice as many stickers as Joe. Joe has 40 more stickers than Emily. They have 300 Stickers altogether. How many sticke
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations derived from given info.

  • P=2J
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Use some substitution now.

  • P=2(E+40)
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Substitute first and second equation into third.

  • 2(E+40)+E+40+E=300
  • 2E+80+E+40+E=300
  • 4E+120=300
  • 4E=180
  • E=45

Emily has 45 stickers. But we want to know what Peter has.

Use P=2(E+40)

  • P=2(45+40)
  • P=90+80
  • P=170

Peter has 170 stickers.

BRAINLIEST.In which quadrant does the point (-5, 21) lie?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Point (-5,21) would end up in quadrant II (2).

Step-by-step explanation:

It would end up in quadrant 2 because x=-5 which means it would go left.

y=21 which means it would go up.

Because of this, the point would end up in the top left of the graph which is quadrant 2.

Find the midpoint of each side of the trapezoid. Connect the midpoints. What is the most precise classification of the quadrilat
alex41 [277]
The midpoints of the sides of the trapezoid are:
M  ( - 1 , 1 ), N ( 1, - 1 ), P ( 3, 1 ), Q ( 1, 3 ).
MN = NP = PQ = QM = √ ( 2² + 2² ) = √ 8 = 2√2
∠MNP = ∠NPQ = ∠PQM = ∠QMN = 90°
Answer:
The quadrilateral formed by joining the midpoints of the sides of the trapezoid is a square.
