Answer:
21) 12 cm
22) 5.9 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
21) The base is 10, and if the other two sides are congruent and the perimeter is 36, we can figure out with simple algebra that the sides are 13 cm long.
Half of 10 is 5, so we can use the pythagorean theorem.
5^2+x^2=13^2
Rearranging the variables we have 169-25=x^2
144=x^2
x can be plus or minus 12, but since negative length is impossible we find that x is positive 12 cm.
22) We want to use sine, because we have opposite and hypotenuse. A simple and easy way to memorize this is the SohCahToa method. If we have opposite (O) and hypotenuse (H) we have OH. Soh has the letters O and H, and the S means we should use sine.
sine 36=a/10
Plug this into a calculator or desmos scientific calculator to get a=5.9
Answer:
ok so do 11/4 then do 7/r and they need to be equal
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Choice C) 36:25
To get this answer, we simply square each piece of the original ratio 6:5
6^2 = 36
5^2 = 25
Think of two squares where one has a side length of 6 and the other of 5. The ratio of the sides is 6:5. The areas of the two squares are 36 and 25 as mentioned above. So the ratio is 36:25. This idea can be applied to any surface area or area in general. It doesn't have to be two squares. The reason why we can apply this to any general shape is because we can break up the shape into small squares to get a rough approximation. The more squares we use, the better the approximation.
