Answer:

DE=18.38

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the length of triangle base is 26 that is BC=26.

A line, which is parallel to the base divides the triangle into two equal area parts.

Therefore, from the given information, \frac{{\triangle}ADE}{ar ABC}=\frac{1}{2}.

Now, since it is given that A line, which is parallel to the base divides the triangle into two equal area parts, thus

\frac{ar ADE}{arABC}=\frac{1}{2}=\frac{(DE)^{2}}{(BC)^{2}}

⇒\frac{(DE)^{2}}{(BC)^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}

⇒\frac{(DE)^{2}}{(26)^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}

⇒(DE)^{2}=13{\times}26=338

⇒DE=18.38

What is another solution of the equation x+7=y
kirza4 [7]

Here are some solutions: (there are actually an infinite amount of them)

x = 0 ,  y = 7

x = 1  ,  y = 8

x = 2 ,  y = 9

x = 3 ,  y = 10

x = 4 ,  y = 11

x = 42 ,  y = 49

x = pi ,  y = pi + 7

What is a real life example of trigonometric ratios
Brut [27]

Answer:

Trigonometry can be used to measure the height of a building or mountains

Step-by-step explanation:

if you know the distance from where you observe the building and the angle of elevation you can easily find the height of the building. Similarly, if you have the value of one side and the angle of depression from the top of the building you can find and another side in the triangle, all you need to know is one side and angle of the triangle.

Find the values of x,y,z. This diagram is not a scale.
Serjik [45]

Important:
                             The sum of the three angles inside
                              every triangle is always 180°.


First, look at the left triangle alone.
Two of its angles are 46° and 58° .  (46° + 58° ) = 104°
That leaves (180° - 104° ) = 76° degrees for the third angle.
The third angle in that triangle is 'x'. 
                                                         x = 76° .

At the point where 'x' and 'z' come together:
'x' and 'z' are a "linear pair".
Placed side-by-side, they form a straight line.
So (x + z) = 180° .
But  x = 76°.
So z = (180° - 76°).              z = 104° .

Now look at the the skinny triangle on the right alone.
The angle at the top is 13°, and  z = 104°. 
(13° + 104°) = 117° . 
That leaves (180° - 117°) = 63° for the third angle.
'y' is the third angle.
                                                 y = 63° .
