Answer

Find out the value of x .

To proof

SAS congurence property

In this property two sides and one angle of the two triangles are equal.

in the Δ ADC and ΔBDC

(1) CD = CD (common side of both the triangle)

(2) ∠CDA = ∠ CDB = 90 °

( ∠CDA +∠ CDB = 180 ° (Linear pair)

as given in the diagram

∠CDA  = 90°

∠ CDB = 180 ° - 90°

∠ CDB = 90°)

(3) AD = DB (as shown in the diagram)

Δ ADC ≅ ΔBDC

by using the SAS congurence property .

AC = BC

(Corresponding sides of the congurent triangle)

As given

the length of AC is 2x and the length of BC is 3x - 5 .

2x = 3x - 5

3x -2x =5

x = 5

The value of x is 5 .

Hence proved

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We will prove the SAS congruence property

(In this property two sides and one angle of the two triangles are equal the, the two triangles are similar)

consider,  Δ ADC and ΔBDC

(1) CD = CD (common side of both the triangle)

(2) ∠CDA = ∠ CDB = 90 °

( since, ∠CDA +∠ CDB = 180 ° )

(3) AD = DB (as shown in the diagram)

Hence, Δ ADC ≅ ΔBDC

by using the SAS congurence property .

AC = BC

(Corresponding sides of the congruent triangle)

i.e. 2x = 3x - 5

    3x -2x =5

      x = 5

Hence, the value of x is 5

(8b^2/3*9t^3/5)(8b^5/3*9t^3/5)
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

5,184•b•t^6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to multiply the expressions

According to indices law, if we have same bases, we add up the exponents

Thus, we have that;

8 *8b^(2/3+5/3) * 9 * 9 * t^(3/5+3/5)

= 64 * b * 81 * t^6/5

= 5,184bt^6/5

What is the solution to the inequality below?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

B. x < -8 or x > 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use process of elimination to solve this problem by going through every solution and testing them out, but let's jump right to B.

Process:

You know that since the inequality states that x^2 has to be greater than 64, x  has to be more than 8, or less than -8.

This is because 8^2 = 64, and -8^2 = 64, and the inequality requires the answer to be more than 64.

Looking at B., you can see that if x is < -8, the square of, for example, -9, would be 81. This is greater than 64, so this works!

Now, B. also has an alternative. The 'or' is a major clue to which is the correct answer, since the square root of any number can be positive or negative. (-8^2 = 8^2)

The 'or' states that x must be greater than 8. So, for example, if we take the square of 10, we get 100, and that is also greater than 64.

We've proven that this solution is accurate for both parts, so it is definitely the one we want!

Hope this helps!
