Use similar triangles to calculate the height, h cm, of triangle ABE.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anarel [89]3 years ago

Answer:

<h2>24 cm</h2>

Solution,

from the figure,height of ∆ DBC=36-h

Now,in two similar triangles, ratio of corresponding sides are equal to ratio of their heights.

Since, ∆DBC~∆EBA

\frac{36 - h}{h}  =  \frac{dc}{ae}  \\ or \:  \frac{36 - h}{h}  =  \frac{10}{20}  \\ or \: 20(36 - h) = 10 \times h(cross \: multiplication) \\ or \: 720 - 20h = 10h \\ or \:  - 20h - 10h =  - 720 \\ or \:  - 30h =  - 720 \\ or \: h =  \frac{ - 720}{ - 30}  \\ h = 24 \: cm

Height of ABE =24 cm

hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

Which point is a solution to the system of inequalities below?
vodomira [7]

The ordered pair which is a solution to the given inequality is: C. (2, 1).

<h3>What is an inequality?</h3>

An inequality can be defined as a mathematical relation that compares two (2) or more integers and variables in an equation based on any of the following arguments:

  • Less than (<).
  • Greater than (>).
  • Less than or equal to (≤).
  • Greater than or equal to (≥).

Next, we would test the ordered pair with the given inequality to determine a solution as follows:

For ordered pair (4, 4), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(4) + 2(4) < 15

12 + 8 < 15

20 < 15 (False).

For ordered pair (3, 3), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(3) + 2(3) < 15

9 + 6 < 15

15 < 15 (False).

7x - 4y > 9

7(3) - 4(3) > 9

21 - 12 > 9

9 > 9 (False)

For ordered pair (2, 1), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(2) + 2(1) < 15

6 + 2 < 15

8 < 15 (True).

7x - 4y > 9

7(2) - 4(1) > 9

14 - 4 > 9

10 > 9 (True)

For ordered pair (1, 0), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(1) + 2(0) < 15

3 + 0 < 15

3 < 15 (True).

7x - 4y > 9

7(1) - 4(0) > 9

7 - 4 > 9

3 > 9 (False)

Replace f(x) with 0 and swith the equation around to solve for x

 x^4 - 32x^2 - 144 = 0

Factor the left side:

(x+6) (x-6) (x^2+4)

so far we have x+6 = 0, x = -6
                         x -6 = 0, x = 6

solve x^2 +4 = 0
x^2 = -4
x = sqrt(-4) 
x = 2i, -21

The answer is B) 2i, 6, -6
