7x + 4 + 9x = 180
16x = 176
x = 11

9x = 9x11 = 99
7x + 4 = 7(11) + 4 = 77 + 4 = 81

in order to form a rectangular image, each angle needs to be equal 90 degreesn

99 - 9 = 90
81 + 9 = 90

Answer:

B. 9°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given figure is an isosceles trapezoid.

Isosceles trapezoid means the non parallel sides must be equal.

In a trapezoid adjacent angles add upto 180 degrees. We are going to use this property to solve this problem.

In order to make the isosceles trapezoid to the rectangle, the top angles must be 90 degrees.

Given: (7x + 4) and 9x are adjacent angles that are add upto 180 degrees.

So, 7x + 4 + 9x = 180

Simplify the above equation, we get

16x + 4 = 180

16x = 180 - 4

16x = 176

Dividing both sides by 16, we get

x = 176/18

x = 11

Now let's find the each angle measures by plugging in x = 11

7x + 4 = 7(11) + 4 = 77 + 4 = 81 degrees

9x = 9x11 = 99 degrees

We are asked how many degree larger do the angles in the lower left and lower right corner should adjusted

In the lower left, we need to 9 degrees

81 + 9 = 90

In the lower right, we have to subtract 9 degrees.

99 - 9 = 90

So the answer is B. 9°

As it stands, it's none of those. I believe you were going for the distance formula but copied it wrong.

Find the volume of the square pyramid showing. round to the nearest 10th if necessary

solong [7]

The volume of a square pyramid is (1/3)(area of base)(height of pyramid).

Here the area of the base is (10 ft)^2 = 100 ft^2.

13 ft is the height of one of the triangular sides, but not the height of the pyramid. To find the latter, draw another triangle whose upper vertex is connected to the middle of one of the four equal sides of the base by a diagonal of length 13 ft. That "middle" is 5 units straight down from the upper vertex. Thus, you have a triangle with known hypotenuse (13 ft) and known opposite side 5 feet (half of 10 ft). What is the height of the pyramid?
To find this, use the Pyth. Thm.: (5 ft)^2 + y^2 = (13 ft)^2. y = 12 ft.

Then the vol. of the pyramid is (1/3)(area of base)(height of pyramid) =
(1/3)(100 ft^2)(12 ft) = 400 ft^3 (answer)

The inequality which represents the missing dimension x is x≥1.6 or x≥8 / 5.

Given that the area is greater than or equal to 8 square feet and image is attached below.

We want to find the missing inequality x in the form of inequality.

The figure is assumed to be a right triangle with Root = x and perpendicular = 10ft.

As we know the area of a triangle is half the product of the base and the height.

First of all, we will find the area of the triangle by substituting the given values we get

Area=(1/2)×Base×height

Area=(1/2)×x×10

Area=5x ......(1)

Assume that this area is greater than or equal to 8 square feet.

That means Area≥8ft² ......(2)

Now we will balance equation (1) and equation (2), we get

5x≥8ft²

Furthermore, they we will divide both sides by 5 we get

(5x)/5≥8/5

x≥8/5

x≥1.6

Therefore, the inequality represents the missing size x when the area is larger or equal to 8 square feet is x ≥1.6ft².
