The small arcs inside the triangle show that they are similar, so first find the ratio between the similar sides that both have given lengths.

JK is 25, and MN is 30.


30/25 = 1.2


This means the larger triangle is 1.2 times the size of the smaller one.


So MP needs to equal 1.2 x the length of JL:

JL = 20

20 * 1.2 = 24


Now you have 4x-4 = 24

Now silve for x:

Add 4 to each side:

4x = 28

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 28 / 4

x = 7

is it possible to have a right triangle in which the sine of one of the angles is equal to the cosine of one of the angles? why?
stira [4]

Answer:

Yes , it is possible (see the explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a right triangle, we have two complementary angles (their sum equal to 90 degrees)

so

If two angles are complementary, the cofunction identities state that the sine of one equals the cosine of the other and vice versa

<em>Example</em>

Suppose we have the right triangle ABC

The measure of angle C is 90 degrees

A and B are complementary angles

A+B=90°

therefore

sin(A)=cos(B)

sin(B)=cos(A)

f-12=2(b-12)
f=2+b
2+b-12=2(b-12)
b-10=2b-24
minus b both sides
-10=b-24
add24
14=b

14-12=2
2+2=4

freddy was 4 and brother was 2
they are now 16 and 14

maria [59]

Question

solving Algebraic Equations 2M+3=11


Answer:

<h2>m = 4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

2m + 3 = 11

2m = 11 - 3

2m = 8

m = 8 : 2

m = 4

--------------------

check

2 * 4 + 3 = 11

8 + 3 = 11

11 = 11

the answer is good
