Answer:
20√3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Altitude of an equilateral triangle splits it into 2 equal right triangles, it bisects the base and the angle opposite to the base.
<u>Let the altitude be x. Then as per Pythagorean theorem:</u>
- x² = 40² - (40/2)²
- x²= 1600 -400
- x²= 1200
- x= √1200
- x= 20√3 cm
<u>Correct choice is</u> the second one
Question 1:This is a 45-45-90 right triangle. If the leg length is

, then the hypotenuse length will be

.
The leg length of this 45-45-90 right triangle is 8. Multiply that with the square root of 2. You get

. Thus, the last choice is your answer.
Question 2:This triangle can be identified as a 30-60-90 right triangle.
Let's say the smallest leg as a length of

.
Then, the longer leg will have a length of

.
Also, the hypotenuse will have a length of

This triangle follows this format, making it a 30-60-90 right triangle. Thus, the angles are 30, 60, and 90.
Hope this helps! :)
Let Peter's hit be x and Alice's runs be y.
x = 2(y - 6) . . . (1)
x + y = 18 . . . (2)
Putting (1) into (2) gives,
2y - 12 + y = 18
3y = 18 + 12 = 30
y = 30/3 = 10
x = 2(10 - 6) = 2(4) = 8
Therefore, Peter hit 8 home runs and Alice hit 10 home runs.
Plot and connect the points A (2, -2), B (-4, -4), C (-4, -1), D (-2, 3), E (1, 3), F (2, 5), and find the length of BC.

Answer:
BC = 3 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given points:
- A = (2, -2)
- B = (-4, -4)
- C = (-4, -1)
- D = (-2, 3)
- E = (1, 3)
- F = (2, 5)
<u>Plot the points</u> on the coordinate plane (x, y) and connect them in alphabetical order with straight lines (see attached).
From visual inspection of the <u>drawn polygon</u>, we can see that the length of BC is 3 units.
It is fairly simple to calculate the length of BC without plotting the points.
As points B and C have the same x-value, this means that the distance between them is simply the difference between their y-values.
⇒ distance = |-4 - (-1)| = |-3| = 3 units
Answer:
1 or -9, depends on the problem, see below.
Step-by-step explanation:
-11--7+5
Two negatives make a positive so our new equation is:
-11+7+5
-11+7 is -4, so:
-4+5
And this leaves us with:
1
But I saw there was a parentheses, was it misplaced or was one not added? If one was not ended to the end, then the answer would be different.
(-11)-((-7)+5)
-7+5 is negative 2, so:
-11-(-2)
Once again, two negatives make a positive, so our new equation would be:
-11+2
Which gets us:
-9
