False, 2/6 is less than 2/3
The area of a triangle is equal to bh/2.
The base here is 8 and the height is 3.
8*3=24
24/2=12
The answer is B, 12 yd^2
Answer:
FG = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given:
FH = 9x + 15
GH = 5x + 4
FG = ?
From the question given above, we can say that G is the midpoint of FH. This implies that:
FH = FG + GH
With the above idea in mind, we can obtain FG as follow:
FH = 9x + 15
GH = 5x + 4
FG = ?
FH = FG + GH
9x + 15 = FG + 5x + 4
Rearrange
FG = 9x + 15 - 5x - 4
FG = 9x - 5x + 15 - 4
FG = 4x + 11
Next, we shall determine the value of x. This can be obtained as follow:
Since G is the midpoint of FH, it therefore means that FG and GH are equal i.e
FG = GH
With the above idea in mind, we can obtain the value of x as follow:
FG = 4x + 11
GH = 5x + 4
FG = GH
4x + 11 = 5x + 4
Collect like terms
11 - 4 = 5x - 4
7 = x
x = 7
Thus, we can obtain the value of FG as follow:
FG = 4x + 11
x = 7
FG = 4x + 11
FG = 4(7) + 11
FG = 28 + 11
FG = 39
***Check ***
FH = 9x + 15
x = 7
FH = 9(7) + 15 = 63 + 15 = 78
GH = 5x + 4
x = 7
GH = 5(7) + 4 = 35 + 4 = 39
FG = 4x + 11
x = 7
FG = 4(7) + 11 = 28 + 11 = 39
FH = FG + GH
FH = 78
FG = 39
GH = 39
FH = FG + GH
78 = 39 + 39
78 = 78
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Two angles that are directly across from each other when two lines intersect are called vertical angles. Vertical angles are ALWAYS congruent to each other. Very good thing to know when it comes to proving triangle congruency.
The answer is -6.94. Hope it help
