What is the area of a triangle with a base length of 2 1/2 inches and a height of 2 inches

1 answer:

Hello I am happy to help you with this problem. So the formula to solve for a triangle is A = bxh divided by 2.
So it’s area equals base times height divided by 2. So the base is 2 1/2 which becomes 5/2 ( five over 2) times 2 which equals 5. It’s because you cancel. So 5 divided by 2 equals 5/2 which also equals 2 1/2.

I hope that helps you. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me.

2 angles opposite from each other are vertical angles.

Vertical angles are equal to each other.

What is the radius of a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 + 8x – 6y + 21 = 0?

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of the circle is:

$x^{2} + y^{2}+8x-6y+21=0$

The general equation of the circle is:

$x^{2} + y^{2}+2gx+2fy+c=0$

Comparing the given equation with the general equation we can say:

g = 4

f = -3

c = 21

The formula for radius of the circle is:

$radius=\sqrt{g^{2} +f^{2} -c }$

Using these values of the given circle, we get:

$radius=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(-3)^{2}-21}\\\\radius=\sqrt{4}\\\\radius=2$

Therefore, the length of radius of the given circle is 2.

professor190 [17]

Answer: 53/5, 101/20

Step-by-step explanation:

10.6 is = 106/10. Then divide both numerator and denominator by 2. Then it equals 53/5.

5.05 = 505/100. Then divide both numerator and denominator by 5. This will equal 101/20.
