Answer:

In bold below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The largest angle is opposite the largest side.

So by the Cosine Rule:

8^2 = 4^2 + 6^2 - 2*4*6 cos x

cos x =  (8^2 - 4^2 - 6^2) / (-2*4* 6)

= -0.25.

x = 104.48 degrees.

(b) Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 4 * 6 sin 104.48

= 11.62

= 3 √15.

(c)  The shortest altitude will have the longest sides as the base.

Area = 1/2 * altitude * base

3√15 = 1/2 * 8 * a

a = 3√15 / 4 cm

= 0.75√15 cm.

Answer is too right
You know the y intercept is -4 so it’s gotta be on of the top 2. Then I plugged in x=1 and it’s just shy of 6 for the one in the top right which matches the graph.

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

m∠XZY = 40

m∠XZB = 20

Process

1.- Find the measure of ∠ XAB

   ∠XAB = 40°   because AB ║ YZ

2.- Find the measure of ∠ZAB

     ∠ZAB + ∠XAB = 180

    ∠ZAB = 180 - ∠XAB

    ∠ZAB = 180 - 40

    ∠ZAB = 140°

3.- Find the measure of ∠ABZ

    The sum of the internal angles in a triangle equals 180°

     ∠AZB + ∠ZAB + ∠ABZ = 180

     20° + 140° + ∠ABZ = 180

     ∠ABZ = 180 - 20 - 140

    ∠ABZ = 20°

The figure below shows a shaded region and a non-shaded region. Angles in the figure that appear to be right angles are right an
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

the shaded area is 26, the non-shaded area 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The red shaded lines had numbers as well so I add all of them up.

The non-shaded lines didn't have a number, but the bottom had the same length of the top line so therefore your answer is 26 for Shaded, and 16 for non-shaded.
