Kamila [148]3 years ago

Answer:

Therefore,

The height is 23.3 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

ΔABC ~ ΔXYZ

AC = 108.5 ft

BC = h

XZ = 14 ft

YZ = 3ft

To Find:

h = ?

Solution:

Δ ABC ~ Δ XYZ….Given  

If two triangles are similar then their sides are in proportion.  

\dfrac{AB}{XY} =\dfrac{BC}{YZ}=\dfrac{AC}{XZ} \textrm{corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion}\\  

Substituting the values we get

\dfrac{BC}{YZ}=\dfrac{AC}{XZ}

\dfrac{h}{3}=\dfrac{108.5}{14}\\\\h=\dfrac{325.5}{14}=23.25=23.3(nearest tenth)

Therefore,

The height is 23.3 ft.

Identify the volume of the composite figure rounded to the nearest tenth. HELP PLEASE!!
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

V = 115.3 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The left part of the figure shows a cube of side length 4.2 ft.  The volume of a cube is V = s³, where s is the side length.  Hence, the volume of this particular cube is V = (4.2 ft)³ = 74.088.

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

Here V = (1/3)(4.2 ft)²(7 ft) = 41.16 ft³.

Summing up the two distinct areas, we get V = 41.16 ft³ + 74.088 ft³, or

V = 115.3 ft³ after rounding up to the nearest tenth.

Can anyone explain me?​
Alika [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) (a + b)² = (a + b) * (a +b)

  (a + b)³  = (a + b) * (a +b) * (a +b)

 a²- b² = (a +b) (a - b)

Here (a + b) is common in all the three expressions

HCF = (a + b)

b) (x - 1) = (x - 1)

  x² - 1  = (x - 1) * (x + 1)

  (x³ - 1) = (x - 1) (x² + x + 1)

HCF = (x -1)

Write an equation of the line containing the given point and perpendicular to the given line. express your answer in the form y=
katovenus [111]
The given line
4x + y = 5
The slope of the given line is -4

Find the slope of perpendicular line
m₁ × m₂ = -1
-4 × m₂ = -1
m₂ = -1/-4
m₂ = 1/4

Find the equation of perpendicular line
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 9 = 1/4(x - 8)
y - 9 = (1/4) x - 2
y = (1/4)x - 2 + 9
y = (1/4)x + 7
