Answer:
72 inches because a hexagon has 6 sides so you multiply 6 × 12
Answer:
√161 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We're given a right triangle (notice the right angle), the measure of one of the legs (one of the sides that make up the right angle) as 8 yd, and the hypotenuse (the side opposite to the right angle) as 15 yd.
We need to find x, which is the other leg in the triangle
If we are given 2 sides and need to find a third, we can use Pythagorean Theorem, which states that a²+b²=c² if a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse
In this case, a=8, b=x, and c=15
So let's substitute those values into the formula
(8)²+x²=(15)²
raise everything to the second power
64+x²=225
subtract 64 from both sides
x²=161
take the square root of both x and 161
x=√161, x=-√161
-√161 cannot work in this case, as distance cannot be negative.
The question asks for the answer to be in simplified radical form, but √161 cannot be simplified down further
so the answer is <u>√161 yd</u>
Hope this helps! :)
I think your question isn’t phrased well
Answer:
JL = 78
Step-by-step explanation:
The shorter segment is a midline, so is half the length of the longer one.
2(5x-16) = 4x +34
5x -16 = 2x +17 . . . . . divide by 2
3x = 33 . . . . . . . . . . add 16-2x
x = 11 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then segment JL is ...
JL = 4x +34 = 4(11) +34 = 44+34
JL = 78
