See diagram
I wrote that the degrees are 70 each because it is isocolese and 140/2=70


a.
to solve for the diagonal, I'm going to use trig to find the height and the base then use pythagorean theorem to find the diagonal

so
see I've drawn an auxiliry line to make a right triangle on the leftmost side
so
we want to find the height and base
sin(70°)=h/7
so 7sin(70°)=h≈6.57785

cos(70°)=base/7
so 7cos(70°)=base≈2.39414

now
the entire long base is 22, so that big triangle with the diagonal as the hyptonuse is 22-2.39414=19.6059
use pythagorean theorem, like 6.57785²+19.6059²=diagonal²
we get that the diagonal is about 20.68ft




b.
we got that the base was 7cos(70°)
2 of those bases so 22-14cos(70°)=17.2117ft or rounded 17.21ft




a. 20.68ft
b. 17.21ft

Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms. Can he build a shed that is twice as hi
azamat

Complete question is;

Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms. Can he build a shed that is twice as high as it is wide?

A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high.

B. Yes. He could use half as many blocks for the height as the width.

C. There is no way to determine if he can do this.

D. No, it is not possible to do this

Answer:

A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the wood blocks are in the shape of cubic prisms.

Now, cube shapes means that all sides are equal.

Now, if he divides the cube into 2, he can use one have to add to the top to make the height double since the sides are equal.

Thus, the height will now be twice a side of the cubic prism.

Thus, he can build a shed twice as high as its width.

Given f(x) = x+2 and g(x) = x-4 solve for (fg)(x)
kirza4 [7]

Answer:  f(g(x)) = x - 2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = x + 2            

g(x) = x - 4

f(g(x)) = f(x - 4) = (x - 4) + 2        <em>replaced x with x - 4</em>

                       = x - 2                 <em>simplified</em>

Straight angles Are extremely important in geometry. When two lines intersect , they form multiple angles. In the diagram below,
rusak2 [61]
When two straight lines intersect, the vertical opposite angles intersect. the other two angles are also equal. Let the known angle be x, then the other two adjacent angles are obtained subtracting twice of x from 360 and dividing the result by 2.

Therefore, the table can by filled as follows:

Row 1:

Given <GEF = 120°

<FEM is adjacent to <GEF, thus
\angle FEM= \frac{360-2(120)}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{360-240}{2} = \frac{120}{2} =60^o

<MEH is vertically opposite to <GEF and thus is equal to <GEF. Thus <MEH = 120°

<HEG is vertically opposite to <FEM and thus is equal to <FEM. Thus <HEG = 60°.



Row 2:

Given <MEH = 150°

<MEH is vertically opposite to <GEF and thus is equal to <GEF. Thus <GEF = 150°

<FEM is adjacent to <GEF, thus
\angle GEF= \frac{360-2(25)}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{360-50}{2} = \frac{310}{2} =155^o

<HEG is vertically opposite to <FEM and thus is equal to <FEM. Thus <HEG = 30°.



Row 3:

Given that <FEM = 25°

<FEM is adjacent to <GEF, thus
\angle GEF= \frac{360-2(25)}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{360-50}{2} = \frac{310}{2} =155^o

<MEH is vertically opposite to <GEF and thus is equal to <GEF. Thus <GEF = 155°

<HEG is vertically opposite to <FEM and thus is equal to <FEM. Thus <HEG = 25°.



Row 4:

Given that <HEG = 45°

<HEG is adjacent to <GEF, thus
\angle GEF= \frac{360-2(45)}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{360-90}{2} = \frac{270}{2} =135^o

<HEG is vertically opposite to <FEM and thus is equal to <FEM. Thus <FEM = 45°

<MEH is vertically opposite to <GEF and thus is equal to <GEF. Thus <GEF = 135°.

Please explain someone!!!
77julia77 [94]

Answer: 1 and 2

Step-by-step explanation: 1 and 2 because if you are graphing this the formula to find the slope / the line is y = x + some number. In the formula x is how much the line goes from the x axis and the number is how much it is from the y axis. On #2 the problem is 3y = 2x + 4 so to follow the formula you need to divide both sides by 3 to get y = 2/3x + 4. For #3 you do the same thing to get y = -3/2x -5. Finally for #1 the equation is 2x + 3y = 7 so to get the slope / line you need to put x on the other side so now it is 3y = 7-2x then you divide both sides by 3 and get y = -2/3x + 7 and on 1 and 2 there x is 2/3 (the negative doesn't matter and the random number) so they are parallel.
