Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The midsegment VY is half the sum of the parallel bases , that is
VY =
, then
3x + 18 =
(x + 96) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
6x + 36 = x + 96 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x + 36 = 96 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
5x = 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 12
To calculate the length of the diagonal, use the Pythagorean theorem:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the diagonal.
c^2 = 65^2 + 34^2
c^2 = 4225 + 1156
c^2 = 5381
c ~ 73.36
To the nearest tenth of a meter, the diagonal has a length of 73.4 m
Eliminate parentheses using the distributive property.
... 5x = 10x -10x +15
Collect terms, then divide by the coefficient of x.
... 5x = 15
... x = 3
