Answer:

C. 126

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a diagram. We are asked to find the length of AC.

We can see that triangle CDE is similar to triangle CBA.

We know that corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional, so we can set an equation as:

\frac{140-x}{x}=\frac{81}{9}

\frac{140-x}{x}*x=\frac{81}{9}*x

140-x=9x

Switch sides:

9x=140-x

9x+x=140-x+x

10x=140

\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{140}{10}

x=14

\overline{AC}=140-x

\overline{AC}=140-14

\overline{AC}=126

Therefore, the length of line segment is 126 and option C is the correct choice.

11.Find the missing value given the rate of change.(2,6) and (x, 10) m = 4
Anvisha [2.4K]

The missing value x=3 is obtained by the concept of slope in coordinate geometry.

<h3>What is slope?</h3>

Positive or negative rates of change are both possible. Since the slope of a line is determined by the ratio of the vertical and horizontal change between any two locations on a plane or line, the slope is determined by the rise to run ratio. Where, Rise is the difference in elevation between two points. The horizontal shift between two places is known as a run.

Formula of slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} (equation 1)

According to the question the coordinates are: xi=2, x2=x, y1=6, y2=10

Given, rate of change=4 (here rate of change=slope)

Putting all coordinates in equation 1

Slope= \frac{10-6}{x-2}

4=4/x-2

x-2=1

x=3

Therefore, the missing value x=3

What side is the shortest in the picture?<br><br> A. GF<br> B. DG<br> C. EF<br> D. GE<br> F. DE
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

A. GF

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest side in a triangle is opposite the smallest angle

<d = 180 -52 -61 =67

The smallest angle is 52 so the smallest side is DG

<f = 180 - 48-85 =50

The smallest angle is 48 so the smallest side is FG

The smallest angle is 48 so the smallest side overall is FG (GF)
