Answer:

Height: 48

Base: 34

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a triangle is 1/2(base)(height)

1/2(3x+10)(6x) = 816

18x² + 60x = 1632

18x² + 60x - 1632 = 0

Then, we use the Quadratic formula

x = (-60 ± √3600 + 117,504)/36

x =( -60 ± 348/36)

x = 288/36

x = 8

3(8) + 10

= 34

6(8) = 48

Therefore the dimensions are:

Height: 48

Base: 34

In parallelogram ABCD , BE=7x−2 and ED=x2−10 .
Stells [14]

I'm assuming that the diagonals intersect at E. Since diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, BE=ED.

  • 7x-2=x²-10
  • x²-7x-8=0
  • (x-8)(x+1)=0
  • x = -1, 8

As distance must be positive, we reject the negative case, so x=8.

Thus, BE=ED=54.
