This isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length , a, that are longer than the length of the base , b. The perimeter of the

triangle is 15.7 cm. The equation 2a + b = 15.7 models this information. If one of the longer sides is 6.3 cm, which equation can be used to find the length of the base ?

We are give the equation of the perimeter of the triangle as follows:
2a + b = 15.7 
where b represents the base.

Now, if we want to calculate the length of the base, all we have to do is isolate the b in one side of the equation as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2a

We know that a = 6.3 cm, therefore, the length of the base can be calculated as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2(6.3) = 3.1 cm

A cake recipe calls for 1.5 cups of milk and 3 cups of flour. Seth made a mistake and used 5 cups of flour. How many cups of mil
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

<h2>2.5cup of milk</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

we are told that the ratio of milk to flour is 1.5cups to 3 cups

in other words, to prepare cake we need 1.5 cup of milk and 3 cups of flour

if we use 5 cups of flour we can balance up using the relation below

      1.5cups of milk require 3 cups of flour

      x cups of milk require 5 cups of flour

cross multiply we have

x=1.5*5/3

x=7.5/3

x=2.5cup of milk

Given: measure of arc ED = 50° m∠EDK = 80° Find: ∠DSK
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ESK is the supplement of ∠EDK, so is 100°. ∠ESD = 1/2·arc ED, so is 25°. Since ...

∠ESK = ∠ESD + ∠DSK

you have ...

100° = 25° + ∠DSK . . . . fill in known values

75° = ∠DSK . . . . . . . . . . subtract 25°

_____

Regarding opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral

Chord EK divides the 360° circle into two arc: major arc EDK and minor arc ESK. The sum of those arcs is 360°. Each of the inscribed angles that intercepts those arcs has half the measure of the arc. That is, ∠ESK intercepts arc EDK, so has half its measure. Likewise, ∠EDK intercepts arc ESK, so has half its measure. The sum of those opposite angles will be the sum of half the measures of the arcs, so half the sum of the arcs, or 1/2·360° = 180°.

This is why we can say ∠ESK is the supplement of ∠EDK.
