To find the length of the wire, use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
18^2 + 40^2 = c ^2
324 + 1600 = c^2
1924 = c^2
44 = c

The wire is approximately 44 feet.

Answer:

just do this  and you will find you anwer

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. The sum of all the angles of a triangle always equals 180 degrees. Write down the difference you found when subtracting the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. This is the value of X.

Solve R=D-T/3 for the variable D
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

D = \frac{3R+T}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

given R = \frac{D-T}{3}

multiply all terms on both sides to eliminate the fraction

3R = 3D - T ( add T to both sides )

3R + T = 3D ( divide both sides by 3 )

D = \frac{3R+T}{3}

(geomatry) Pleasee help I'll give brainest and thanks :)

Answer:

JML=142 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape is a rhombus, as all 4 sides are equal, but the angle measures are not. One of the properties of a rhombus is that opposite angles are congruent, and adjacent angles are supplementary. Only the second one is important. Since angles KLM and angle JML are supplementary, the equation KLM+JML=180 can be used. KLM is then substituted by the given angle measure, 38 degrees, to get an equation such as JML+38=180. Now, to solve for JML, 38 must be subtracted from both sides of the equation, which leaves teh answer of JML=142.

Find the word or phrases that best complete the sentence intersecting planes ___ intersect in exactly one point
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

never

Step-by-step explanation:

Intersecting planes are planes that intersect along a given line.

To explain this better, consider the following definitions:

i. A point: This is denoted by a dot and it is a location marked on a space or a plane.

ii. A line: This is the distance between two points. It is one-dimensional.

iii. A plane: This is a two-dimensional, flat surface with no thickness formed by points and extends infinitely.

Therefore, since intersecting planes intersect along a line, it is not possible that they intersect in exactly one point given that a line is the distance between points.
