Answer:

Equations: x+y=80\,,\,2x+4y=216\,\,

number of chickens = 52

number of goats = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A small ranch has chickens and goats

Total number of heads = 80

Total number of legs = 216

To find: number of chickens and goats

To draw: the graph

Solution:

Let x denotes number of chickens and y denotes number of goats.

According to the question,

x+y=80\,\,(i)\\2x+4y=216\,\,(ii)

From (i), put x=80-y in (ii)

2(80-y)+4y=216\\160-2y+4y=216\\2y=216-180\\2y=56\\y=\frac{56}{2}=28

Put y=28 in equation (i)

x+28=80\\x=80-28=52

So,

number of chickens = 52

number of goats = 28

Current temperature = -2°C

Rise in temperature = 15°C

New temperature = (-2 + 15)°C = 13°C

Triangle ABC is an equilateral triangle.Find the angle of rotation that maps A to B
svet-max [94.6K]

The sum of the inner angles of any triangle is always 180°, i.e. you have


\alpha + \beta + \gamma = 180


In the particular case of an equilater triangle, all three angles are the same, so

\alpha = \beta = \gamma


and the expression becomes


\alpha + \beta + \gamma = \alpha + \alpha + \alpha = 3\alpha = 180


which implies \alpha = 60


So, if you rotate the triangle with respect to its center by 60 degrees, the triangle will map into itself. In particular, if you want point A to be mapped into point B, you have to perform a counter clockwise rotation of 60 degrees with respect to the center of the triangle.


Of course, this is equivalent to a clockwise rotation of 120 degrees.


Finally, both solutions admit periodicity: a rotation of 60+k360 degrees has the same effect of a rotation of 60 degrees, and the same goes for the 120 one (actually, this is obvisly true for any rotation!)

Given: ABCD is a trapezoid, AC ⊥ CD AB = CD, AC=the square root of 75 , AB = 5 Find: AABCD
Ugo [173]

In this attached picture according to the conditions of the problem we have an isosceles trapezoid and since we know that legs are equal (AD=BC=5 cm), we have to calculate bases and height in order to find the area. Working with the triangle BCD, we apply Pythagoras theorem and find that CD = \sqrt{75+25} = 10 cm. Since BDC is a right triangle, applying theorem for the area of triangles, we find that \frac{1}{2} * BF =  \frac{1}{2} * 5 * \sqrt{75} and BF= 0.5\sqrt{75}. Since ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid, triangles ADE and BFC are congruent with Angle Side Angle theorem. Then, DE=FC and with the help of Pythagoras theorem, DE=FC=2.5 cm. Then, AB=EF=5 cm and the area of the trapezoid is  A= BF *  \frac{AB+CD}{2} = 0.5  \sqrt{75}  * \frac{5+10}{2} = 18.75 \sqrt{3}   cm^{2}
