In 8, 9, 10, all the triangles are similar, meaning corresponding sides have the same ratio.
8. hypotenuse / (short side) = 25/x = x/9
x² = 25*9 = 5²×3²
x = √(5²×3²) = 5*3 = 15
9. (long side) / (short side) = x/7 = 9/x
x² = 7*9
x = √(9*7) = 3√7
10. (short side) / (long side) = x/48 = 48/64
x = 48²/64 = 36
To answer this item, we let x be the measure of angle Y. If we say supplement, it is understood that when we sum up the measures of the two angles (angle Y and its supplement) the answer should be 180. Therefore the other angle is 180-x. Going back to the condition given in this item, we will be able to generate an equation,
x = 3(180 - x)
The value of x from the equation is 135. Thus, m∠Y is 135°.
Answer:
the answer is20 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
a square has 4 sides so you divide the total of 80 by 4.
80÷4=20
