how do you divide a right triangle into thirds? It's area 18 sq. units and I need to figure out the size of each side

If you are trying to find the area of each side you created when dividing the triangle into thirds, you should divide your numbers.  Since the area of the whole triangle is 18 sq. units, and you need three separate pieces from the triangle, you can divide 18 by three.  This would look like this:

18 / 3 = ?

And 18 / 3 = 6.  So from that you can tell that each third of the triangle is going to equal 6 sq. units.

Hope that helps!

The perimeter of the base of a regular quadrilateral prism is 60 cm, the area of one of the lateral faces is 105 cm2. Find:
Ostrovityanka [42]
The surface area is 870 cm².

Since the base is a regular quadrilateral, each side is the same; dividing the perimeter by 4 will give us the side length:

60/4 = 15

To find the area, we square the side length:
15² = 225

There are two bases, so the area of these is 2(225) = 450

There are 4 lateral faces, so the lateral area is 4(105) = 420

Together, this gives us a total surface area of 870.

Answer:

27. Alternate exterior angles are congruent.

28. Same-side interior angles are supplementary.

Step-by-step explanation:

27. The two angles whose measures are set equal by the equation are on opposite sides of the transversal, so are "opposite." They are "outside" the space between the parallel lines, so are "exterior." These descriptors identify the angles as "opposite exterior" angles. The theorem/postulate that lets you set their measures equal is ... [the one written above].

28. The two angles whose measures are added in the equation are on the same side of the transversal, so are "same-side" angles. They are "inside" the space between the parallel lines, so are "interior." These descriptors identify the angles as "same-side interior" angles. The theorem/postulate that says their measures sum to 180° is ... [the one written above].
