"c" is the hypotenuse of the largest triangle, and "a" is that triangle's shortest side. Thus the ratio is
... (longest side)/(shortest side)
Since all the triangles in the figure are similar, to complete the proportion, you need to recognize the triangle that "a" is the longest side of, then find the shortest side of that triangle.
"a" is the longest side (hypotenuse) of the smallest triangle. The shortest side of that triangle is "r". So, your proportion is ...
... c/a = a/r
The appropriate choice is the 2nd one, ...
... r
Answer:
x = 13, y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, thus
x - 7 = 6 ( add 7 to both sides )
x = 13
and
2y - 6 = 8 ( add 6 to both sides )
2y = 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 7
Answer:
it is a that is the answer
Answer:
115°
Step-by-step explanation:
Knowing that the sum of all interior angles of any triangle is 180 degrees, we can find the measurement of the missing angle of the triangle. The calculation is 180 - 75 - 40 = 65. Then, notice that the blue angle and the missing angle are supplementary (linear; add up to 180 degrees). So we can find the blue angle's measurement by 180 - 65, so the answer is 115 degrees.
Answer:
Use inverse cos to solve for x.
