Answer:

Side b=7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of triangle=29m

Side a=2b-3

Side b=b

Side c=4+b

To find:

Side b

Solution:

P of triangle=a+b+c

29=2b-3+b+4+b

29=2b+b+b+4-3

29=4b+1

29-1=4b

b=28/4

b=7m

I hope my answer is right.

Answer:

D) 7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

So I would start this off by plugging in the variables into side B. So if we were to plug 7 into B there would be 22 meters left of the perimeter. Therefore meaning 22 between A and C. Now A is 3 meters shorter than TWICE of B. So 7 times 2 is 14 and 14 minus 3 is 11. now we have 11 and 7 which equals 18. 29 minus 18 giving us 11 left. 11 is C. Now it says c is 4 meters longer than B so it 7 plus 4 is 11. And everything adds up. HOPE THIS HELPS.

Find two geometric means between 5 and 135
aniked [119]
Answer:

We are effectively looking for a and b such that 5, a, b, 135 is a geometric sequence.

This sequence has common ratio <span><span>3<span>√<span>1355</span></span></span>=3</span>, hence <span>a=15</span> and <span>b=45</span>

Explanation:

In a geometric sequence, each intermediate term is the geometric mean of the term before it and the term after it.

So we want to find a and b such that 5, a, b, 135 is a geometric sequence.

If the common ratio is r then:

<span><span>a=5r</span><span>b=ar=5<span>r2</span></span><span>135=br=5<span>r3</span></span></span>

Hence <span><span>r3</span>=<span>1355</span>=27</span>, so <span>r=<span>3<span>√27</span></span>=3</span>

Then <span>a=5r=15</span> and <span>b=ar=15⋅3=45</span>

Experimentally verify sum of three angles of an triangle is 180⁰.​
svetlana [45]

Draw line a through points A and B. Draw line b through point C and parallel to line a.

Since lines a and b are parallel, <)BAC = <)B'CA and <)ABC = <)BCA'.

It is obvious that <)B'CA + <)ACB + <)BCA' = 180 degrees.

Thus <)ABC + <)BCA + <)CAB = 180 degrees.

Lemma

If ABCD is a quadrilateral and <)CAB = <)DCA then AB and DC are parallel.

Proof

Assume to the contrary that AB and DC are not parallel.

Draw a line trough A and B and draw a line trough D and C.

These lines are not parallel so they cross at one point. Call this point E.

Notice that <)AEC is greater than 0.

Since <)CAB = <)DCA, <)CAE + <)ACE = 180 degrees.

Hence <)AEC + <)CAE + <)ACE is greater than 180 degrees.

Contradiction. This completes the proof.

Definition

Two Triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent if and only if

|AB| = |A'B'|, |AC| = |A'C'|, |BC| = |B'C'| and,

<)ABC = <)A'B'C', <)BCA = <)B'C'A', <)CAB = <)C'A'B'.

Consider the line shown on the graph. Enter the
Semenov [28]

<h2>Solution -</h2>

From the graph, we concluded that line passes through the points (0, 3) and (1, 4) respectively.

So, slope of the line (m) passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is

m = d - b/ c - a

<h3>So, on substituting the values, we get </h3>

m = 4 - 3 / 1 - 0 = 1/1 = 1

Also, line makes an intercept of 3 units in positive direction of y - axis.

So, c = 3

<h3>So, Equation of line is given by</h3>

y = mx + c

y = 1 × x + 3

<h3>y = x + 3</h3>

<h3>Alternative Method :-</h3>

We know, Equation of line passing through the points (a,b) and (c, d) is given by

y - b = d - b / c - a (x - a)

<h3>Here,</h3>

a = 0

b = 3

c = 1

d = 4

<h3>So, on substituting these values in above result, we get :-</h3>

y - 3 = 4 - 3 /1 - 0 ( x - 0 )

y - 3 = 1/1 ( x - 0 )

y - 3 = x

<h3>y = x + 3</h3>

<h3>Different forms of equations of a straight line :-</h3>

1. Equations of horizontal and vertical lines

Equation of line parallel to x - axis passes through the point (a, b) is y = b.

Equation of line parallel to y - axis passes through the point (a, b) is x = a.

<h3>2. Point-slope form equation of line</h3>

Equation of line passing through the point (a, b) having slope m isy - b = m(x - a)

<h3>3. Slope-intercept form equation of line</h3>

Equation of line which makes an intercept of c units on y axis and having slope m is y = mx + c.

<h3>4. Intercept Form of Line</h3>

Equation of line which makes an intercept of a and b units on x - axis and y axis respectively is x/a + y/b = 1.

<h3>5. Normal form of Line</h3>

Equation of line which is at a distance of p units from the origin and perpendicular makes an angle B with the positive X-axis is x cosB + y sinB = p.
