In a right triangle, the acute angles measure x + 15 and 2x degrees. What is the measure of the smallest angle of the triangle?

First, solve for each of the angles. Since it is a right triangle, one of the angles is 90 degrees. Knowing that the sum of the angles of a triangle are always equal to 180 degrees, you can write an equation for the triangle.

Angle1+ angle2+angle3=180.

Which means that 90+(x+15)+2x=180.

After finding the value of x, which is 25 in this case, solve for each angle.

X+15=25+15=40.

2x=25*2= 50

The value of the smallest angle is 40 degrees.

bianca is building a sandbox that will hold 4 cubic yards of sand. she wants it to be 18 inches deep and 2 yards wide. what will
tamaranim1 [39]
Length should be 2/5yd:

18inch*1yd/36inch=.5yd=> depth

volume= 2(length*width+lenght*depth+depth*width)

let l to be the length.

volume= 2(l*2+2(.5)+.5*2)

volume=5l+2

4=5l+2

2=5l

l=2/5

What's the value of x y z
lions [1.4K]
They are algebraic symbols or known as unknown number. There is no true value for them. The value of algebraic symbols are based on equations

ie. 1+x = 2

First, we isolate the x by canceling the +1 FROM BOTH SIDES(Balance method) by -1 ON BOTH SIDES.

1+x-1 = 2-1

So we are left with the x on the left side, and a single number on the right side. Therefore, our calculation is complete.

x = 1


More complex cases would be

2y-3 = 45

First, we need to isolate the algebraic symbol, which is 2y (yx2) by +3 ON BOTH SIDES

2y-3+3 = 45+3

2y = 48

WE ARE NOT DONE! 2y=48 is still an equation. Therefore, to isolate the y, we need to divide BOTH SIDES by 2

2y/2 = 48/2

y = 24

There is no true or absolute or definite value for algebraic symbols like x,y,z,a,c,t,h,d etc. They are used to represent unknown numbers.


Hope this helped!

Ba - ha = c <br> solve for a
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

h = \frac{c}{b-h}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

ba - ha = c ← factor out a from each term on the left side

a(b - h) = c ← divide both sides by (b - h)

a = \frac{c}{b-h}
