The height of a triangle is 4 sqrt 3 . What is the perimeter of the equatorial triangle?

The perimeter of the equatorial triangle is 24 units

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that,

An equilateral triangle has an height equal to 4 \sqrt{3}

The triangle is shown below

From Triangle ABC in the shown figure AD =4 \sqrt{3}

Let the sides of the equilateral triangle be ‘a’

AB = BC = a

Since, it is an equilateral triangle we get,

BD = DC = a ÷ 2

Now, using Pythagoras Theorem in Triangle ABD,

The Pythagorean theorem is this: In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

\mathrm{AB}^{2}=\mathrm{BD}^{2}+\mathrm{AD}^{2}

\begin{array}{l}{a^{2}=\left(\frac{a}{2}\right)^{2}+(4 \sqrt{3})^{2}} \\\\ {a^{2}-\left(\frac{a}{2}\right)^{2}=(4 \sqrt{3})^{2}}\end{array}

\frac{4 a^{2}-a^{2}}{4}=16 \times 3

\begin{array}{l}{\frac{3 a^{2}}{4}=16 \times 3} \\\\ {3 a^{2}=192} \\\\ {a^{2}=192 \div 3=64}\end{array}

a = 8

Hence, the three sides of the triangle are 8 units each

In equilateral traingle, length of all three sides of triangle are equal

So, Perimeter = 3 \times (Length of each side of triangle)

Perimeter = 3 \times 8 = 24

Thus the perimeter of the equatorial triangle is 24 units

Prove that if a and b are positive integers whose sum is a prime p, their greatest common divisor is 1.
Tasya [4]

Proof by contadiction.

Let assume there exist such positive integers a and b whose sum is a prime number p, that their greatest common divisor is greater than 1.

a,b\in\mathbb{Z^+}\\d=\text{gcd}(a,b)>1\\\\a=de\\b=df\\e,f\in\mathbb{Z^+}\\\\a+b=p\\de+df=p\\d(e+f)=p\\

Since p is a prime number and d>1, then d=p \wedge e+f=1, but we assumed earlier that e,f\in\mathbb{Z^+}, and there are no two positive integers that sum up to 1.

I need help in this math number 7,I got the picture here for u to know what to do because I don’t understand the question ppplll
tia_tia [17]

You have to find a common denominator for both fractions. I chose the denominator to be 10, so the 1/2 will become 5/10, and 1/5 will become 2/10.

Subtract 5/10 from 2/10. You will get -3/10.

Answer: -3/10

You can check your answer by solving 1/2-3/10=1/5 to see if it is true. (It is:)

X=4 in the equation e^lnx = 4. Why is this so? Can you go through the steps/rules
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

e^(ln x) is just plain x

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions f(x) = e^x and g(x) = ln x are inverses of one another.  In other words, one "undoes" the other.

Thus, as the rule goes, e^(ln x) is just plain x.

Here, e^(ln x) = 4 simplifies to x = 4.

The population of a town is decreasing at a rate of 3.2% per year. In 2015, there were 14,250 people. What is the first year tha
notsponge [240]
The answer is D
you would set up an equation like this
14,250 x .032
this will give you how much the population is decreasing per year. Which is 456 people per year.
You then take 2015 and find the difference between that number and 2025 and do it with all of the other years too.
For example 2025-2015 is 10 years
You then take 10 x 456 to tell you how much the of population you lost in those 10 years. You will then take that number which is 4,560 and do 14,250-4,560 to get 9,650.
