Points $D$, $E$, and $F$ are the midpoints of sides $\overline{BC}$, $\overline{CA}$, and $\overline{AB}$ of $\triangle ABC$, re

spectively, and $\overline{CZ}$ is an altitude of the triangle. If $\angle BAC = 71^\circ$, $\angle ABC = 39^\circ$, and $\angle BCA = 70^\circ$, then what is $\angle EZD+\angle EFD$ in degrees?

The sum of \boxed{\angle {\text{EZD}} + \angle \text{EFD} = {{140}^ \circ }}.

Further Explanation:

The sum of all angle of the triangle is \boxed{{{180}^ \circ }}.

The line joining the mid points of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half of it.

Given:

D, E and F are the midpoints of the sides BC, CA and AB respectively.

CZ is an altitude of the triangle ABC.

\angle \text{BAC} = {71^ \circ }, \angle \text{ABC} = {39^ \circ } and \angle \text{BCA} = {70^ \circ }.

Calculation:

E is the midpoint of AC and D is the midpoint of BC.

The line ED is parallel to the line AB.

F is the midpoint of AB and D is the midpoint of AB.

The line FD is parallel to the line AC.

E is the midpoint of AC and F is the midpoint of AB.

The line EF is parallel to the line BC.

Therefore, \angle \text{AFE} = \angle \text{ABC} = 39^\circ.

\angle \text{AFE} + \angle \text{EFD} + \angle \text{DFB} = 180^\circ

Substitute 39^\circ for \angle \text{AFE} and 71^\circ for \angle \text{DFB} in the above equation to obtain the value of angle \angle \text{EFD}.

\begin{aligned}\angle EFD &= {180^ \circ } - {71^ \circ } - {39^ \circ } \\ &= {180^ \circ } - {110^ \circ } \\ &= {70^ \circ } \\\end{aligned}

In triangle AEZ the side AE is equal to side EZ.

Angle opposite to equal side are equal Therefore, \angle \text{EAZ} = \angle \text{EZA} = {71^ \circ } and \angle \text{DFZ} = \angle \text{DBZ} = {39^ \circ }.

The sum of \angle \text{AZE} + \angle \text{EZD} + \angle \text{DZB} = {180^ \circ }.

Substitute 39^\circ for \angle \text{DZB} and 71^\circ for \angle \text{AZE} in the above equation to obtain the value of \angle \text{EZD}.

\begin{aligned}\angle \text{EZD}+{71^ \circ }+ {39^ \circ } &= {180^\circ } \\\angle \text{EZD} &= {180^\circ } - {39^ \circ } - {71^ \circ } \\\angle \text{EZD} &= {180^\circ } - {110^ \circ } \\\angle \text{EZD} &= {70^ \circ } \\\end{aligned}

The sum of \angle {\text{EZD}} + \angle \text{EFD} can be calculated as,

\begin{aligned}\angle {\text{EZD}} + \angle \text{EFD} &= {70^ \circ } + {70^ \circ } \\&= {140^ \circ } \\\end{aligned}

Kindly refer to the image attached.

The sum of \boxed{\angle {\text{EZD}} + \angle \text{EFD} = {{140}^ \circ }}.

Consider ΔABC, DF is a midline of this triangle, so the midline joining the midpoints of two sides is parallel to the third side and half as long. You have that DF||AC, then ∠DFB=∠CAB=71°. Similarly, EF is a midline and EF||BC and therefore ∠AFE=∠ABC=39°. ∠AFE+∠EFD+∠DFB=180°, then 

∠EFD=180°-71°-39°=70°.

Consider right ΔAZC, ZE is a median and is equal to half of hypotenuse AC, then ΔAEZ is isoscales and ∠EAZ=∠EZA=71°. Similarly, ΔCZB is right, FD is a median and is equal to half of hypotenuse BC. ΔBDZ is isoscales and ∠DFZ=∠DBZ=39°.∠AZE+∠EZD+∠DZB=180°, then 

∠EZD=180°-71°-39°=70°.

Hence, ∠EZD+∠EFD=70°+70°=140°

Advocard [28]

We have been given that Susan has a 12-inch board for constructing a wooden chair.The directions say to use a board that is 29 centimeters long. We are asked to determine if Susan's board is long enough to cut or not.

We know that 1 inch is equal to 2.54 cm.

Let us convert 12 inches into cm by multiplying 12 by 2.54.

12\text{ inches}=12\times 2.54\text{ cm}

12\text{ inches}=30.48\text{ cm}

Since 12 inches is equal to 30.48 centimeters and 30.48 is greater than 29, therefore, Susan's board in long enough to cut.

Orlov [11]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
 x: amount of time Miguel uses to complete the task.
 y: amount of time Maria uses to complete the task.
 We write the system of equations:
 x + y = 60
 y = (1/2) x
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 40 minutes
 y = 20 minutes

The number 12,300 is written ______. as a coefficient in standard form in scientific notation
dexar [7]
The number 12,300 is written 1.23 x 10⁴ as a scientific notation. It's coefficient is 1.23; base is 10⁴ in exponent form.

Scientific notation is a method developed by scientists to shorten the number that expresses a very large number. The scientific notation is based on powers of the base number 10.

Scientific notation has two numbers: coefficient and base. The coefficient must be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. The base is always 10 written in exponent form.

12,300 as coefficient in standard form in scientific notation.

1) put decimal after the first digit and drop the zeros. from 12,300 to 1.23 this is the coefficient.

2) to find the exponent, count the number of places from decimal to the end of the number.
1.2300 ; there are 4 places

So the scientific notation is 1.23 x 10⁴

What is angle F to the nearest degree?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

So we already knew all three sides, there are more than one way to do it, for example:

sin∠F = HG/HF = 12/13

cos∠F = GF/HF = 5/13

tan∠F = HG/GF = 12/5

ctg∠F = GF/HG = 5/12

All of them will give you the result which is approximately 67°.
