Answer:
Two doesn’t equal 8. Theoretically, eight is the solution...
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The fact that DE is perpendicular to AC means triangles AED and CED are congruent and side AD is equal in length to side CD.
5x -20 = 2x +4
3x = 24 . . . . . . . add 20-2x
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3
The value of x is 8.
Answer:
Third answer (she is incorrect because she should have squared each leg length and then found the sum.)
Step-by-step explanation:
The pythagorean theorem states that a²+b²=c². This is not equivalent to (a+b)²=c² (due to FOIL expansion, this expands to a²+2ab+b²=c²).
This matches with the third answer, as she has to do a² and b≥ separately.
**This question involves expanding perfect squares, which you may wish to revise. I'm always happy to help!
Answer:
Perpendicular(p)=21
base(b)=20
hypotenuse(h)=29
Step-by-step explanation:
Now by using the formula:
cos A=b/h
i.e 20 by 29
