Charlene puts together two isosceles triangles so that they share a base, creating a kite. The legs of the triangles are 10 inch

es and 17 inches, respectively. If the length of the base for both triangles is 16 inches long, what is the length of the kite’s other diagonal?

This is the concept of trigonometry and its identities;
We are required to calculate the length of the kite's diagonals;
Here we use the trigonometric identities;
let theta=x
tan x=opposite/adjacent
opposite=17
adjacent=10
thus
tan x=17/10
x=tan^-1 17/10
x=59.54
Therefore half the length of the diagonal will be given by:
sin x=h/10
h=10 sin x
h=10 sin 59.54
h=8.62
thus the length of the diagonal will be:
2*8.62
=17.24 in

Find the property of this : 5x*(4y+3x)=5x*(3+4y)
7nadin3 [17]
Simplifying
5x(4y + 3x) = 5x(3x + 4y)

Reorder the terms:
5x(3x + 4y) = 5x(3x + 4y)
(3x * 5x + 4y * 5x) = 5x(3x + 4y)

Reorder the terms:
(20xy + 15x2) = 5x(3x + 4y)
(20xy + 15x2) = 5x(3x + 4y)
20xy + 15x2 = (3x * 5x + 4y * 5x)

Reorder the terms:
20xy + 15x2 = (20xy + 15x2)
20xy + 15x2 = (20xy + 15x2)

Add '-20xy' to each side of the equation.
20xy + -20xy + 15x2 = 20xy + -20xy + 15x2

Combine like terms: 20xy + -20xy = 0
0 + 15x2 = 20xy + -20xy + 15x2
15x2 = 20xy + -20xy + 15x2

Combine like terms: 20xy + -20xy = 0
15x2 = 0 + 15x2
15x2 = 15x2

Add '-15x2' to each side of the equation.
15x2 + -15x2 = 15x2 + -15x2

Combine like terms: 15x2 + -15x2 = 0
0 = 15x2 + -15x2

Combine like terms: 15x2 + -15x2 = 0
0 = 0

Solving
0 = 0

Couldn't find a variable to solve for.

This equation is an identity, all real numbers are solutions.

Find dy/dx when y = Ln (sinh 2x). A. 2 cosh 2x B. 2 sech 2x C. 2 coth 2x D. 2 csch 2x
givi [52]
The function given is a composite function. Let's work from the outside in:
y=(ln(sinh(2x)))

First step:
\frac{d}{dx}[y]= \frac{d}{dx}[ln(sinh(2x))]

Now, let's work it out:
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{sinh(2x) } *   \frac{d}{dx}[sinh(2x)]

Next step:
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{sinh(2x) } * cosh(2x) *  \frac{d}{dx}[2x]

Next step:
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{sinh(2x) } * cosh(2x) *2

Simplify:
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2cosh(2x)}{sinh(2x) }

Simplify further:
\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 (\frac{cosh(2x)}{sinh(2x)})

Remember that:
{\frac{cosh(x)}{sinh(x)} = coth(x)

So, your final answer is:
\boxed{ \frac{dy}{dx} = 2coth(2x) }

So, your answer is C. Hope I could help you!
