Mathematics

patriot [66]3 years ago

Answer:

The required result is proved with the help of angle bisector theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given △ABD and △CBD, AE and CE are the angle bisectors. we have to prove that \frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{DC}{CB}

Angle bisector theorem states that an angle bisector of an angle of a Δ divides the opposite side in two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of triangle.

In ΔADB, AE is the angle bisector

∴ the ratio of the length of side DE to length BE is equal to the ratio of the line segment AD to the line segment AB.

\frac{DE}{EB}=\frac{AD}{AB}   →  (1)

In ΔDCB, CE is the angle bisector

∴ the ratio of the length of side DE to length BE is equal to the ratio of the line segment CD to the line segment CB.

\frac{DE}{EB}=\frac{CD}{CB}    →  (2)

From equation (1) and (2), we get

\frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{CD}{CB}

Hence Proved.

What is the equation of a line perpendicular to y= 3/4x +12 that passes through (12, 3)
ycow [4]

Answer:

y=-4/3x-9

 

=

−

4

3

x

−

9

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to get the slope of the perpendicular line

The slope of a perpendicular line is equal to the negative inverse of the slope of the given line

y

=

m

x

+

b

y

=

⇒

m

4

⇒

3

Now that we have the slope, we need to find the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, we need to plug-in values of  

x

and  

y

that the line passes through

y

Find the roots: x^2−12x+32=0​. <br><br> Enter your answers in the boxes (numbers only).
AnnZ [28]

The answers are 4 and 8.

Because:

x^2 - 12x + 32 =

(x - 4)(x - 8)

x - 4 = 0

   +4    +4

x = 4

x - 8 = 0

  +8    +8

x = 8
