Check the picture below.

now, we know that the slanted legs are congruent, since it's an isosceles trapezoid, we also know that the bases are the parallel sides, so, the "altitude" or distance from those bases are the same length, for each of those triangles in the picture.

now, the bases are parallel, that means the altitude segment is perpendicular to the base, the longest side at the bottom, so, we end up with a right-triangle that has a Hypotenuse and a Leg, equal to the other triangle's.

thus, by the HL theorem for right triangles, both of those triangles are congruent, and if the triangles are congruent, all their sides are also, including the ones on the base.

Given the parent function of f(x) = x³, what is the value of k in the translated graph of f(x - h) + k?
jekas [21]

The value of k in the translated graph of f(x - h) + k is; k = 2

<h3>How to carry out Translations on Graphs?</h3>

We are given the parent function of f(x) = x³.

Now, the point (0, 0) in the graph of f(x) is the point (3, 2) in the translated graph. Thus;

The rule of translation is;

(x, y) → (x + 3, y + 2)

That means;

The translation is 3 units to the right and 2 units up

The equation of the translated graph is equal to;

f(x) = (x - 3)³ + 2

Thus;

The value of k is equal to 2.

Find the value of $x$ for the right triangle. A right triangle with base labeled x and hypotenuse labeled 12 units. Angle betwee
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

6 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle described in the question has been sketched in the picture attached below :

From the triangle, we could solve for X, which is the base of the triangle using trigonometry :

Sinθ = opposite / hypotenus

Sin 30° = x / 12

0.5 = x / 12

x = 12 * 0.5

x = 6 feets

Hence base, x = 6 feets

DONT COMMENT IF YOU DON KNOW
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

okay so im not sure which is being round so i'll do both

if you are going to round the miles and gallons:

278.2 to 278 because the decimal is below 0.5

19.6 to 20 because the decimal is above 0.5

278/20 = 13.9 which you would round to 14 because the decimal is above 0.5

if you are only going to round the answer:

278.2/19.6 = 14.193877551 which you would round to 14 because the decimal is below 0.5

so regardless of what you do, <u> your answer will be 14</u>
