Find the length of each hypotenuse such that KMN = LMN

Mrac [35]3 years ago

If triangle KMN is congruent with triangle LMN, then:
1) KM must be congruent with LM→KM=LM→
x+2y=3x-y→x+2y-x-2y=3x-y-x-2y→0=2x-3y→2x-3y=0   (1)

2) KN must be congruent with LN→KN=LN→
5x+3y=8x-7→5x+3y-5x-3y+7=8x-7-5x-3y+7→7=3x-3y→3x-3y=7  (1)

We have a system of two equations and two unkowns:
(1) 2x-3y=0
(2) 3x-3y=7

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2)
(3x-3y)-(2x-3y)=7-0
3x-3y-2x+3y=7
x=7

Replacing x=7 in equation (1)
(1) 2x-3y=0→2(7)-3y=0→14-3y=0→
14-3y+3y=0+3y→14=3y→14/3=3y/3→14/3=y→y=14/3

The length of the hypotenuse is:
KN=5x+3y=5(7)+3(14/3)=35+14→KN=49
or
LN=8x-7=8(7)-7=56-7→LN=49

Answer: Option C. 49

A circle has diameter 18 inches, and a chord is 14 inches long. What is the distance in inches from the chord to the center of t
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Let O be the center of a circle whose radius is r cm , in which AB= 14 cm long

cord is at a distanceof 24 cm from O. Draw a perpendicular OD on AB , thus ,

OD= 24 cm.

In right angled triangle. ODB

OB^2 = OD^2+ DB^2

r^2 =(24)^2+(AB/2)^2 = 576+(14/2)^2

r^2 = 576+ 49=625

r = √625. =25 cm. Answer.

The scale factor of the blueprint of a garage door to the actual garage door is 0.05. the are of the actual garage door is 220 f
erastovalidia [21]
The scale factor 0.05 refers to length, so for area the scale factor is 0.05²=0.0025.

We then multiply: 220 ft²*0.0025=0.55 ft² (choice A)
