<u>Answer </u>


7


<u>Explanation. </u>

The triangle shown is a right triangle. One of the acute angles is given as 45°. Angles in a triangle add up to 180°

So we can get the third angle of the triangle as follows:


180 - (90+45) = 45.


From this we can conclude that, apart from the triangle being an right triangle, it is also isosceles triangle. This means that the two shorter sides of the triangle are equal.


So, the value of x is 7.

Answer: x = 7



Explanation:



1) This special right triangle is the isosceles right triangle: 45°-45°-90°.



It is an isosceles right triangle, then x = 7.



2) For these the isosceles right triangle you have: hypotenuse = leg length × √2.



You can prove that using Pythagoras: hypotenuse² = side² + side² = 2×side² ⇒ hypotenuse.



3) Therefore: x = 7 and y = 7√2

The simplest form of the given expression 3\frac{11}{12} - 1\frac{4}{12} is \frac{31}{12}

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, expression is 3 11/12 – 1 4/12 \rightarrow 3 \frac{11}{12}-1 \frac{4}{12}

We have to find the simplest form of the value derived from the given expression.

Now, first let us solve the given equation.

3 \frac{11}{12}-1 \frac{4}{12}

converting mixed fractions to improper fractions.

=\frac{3 \times 12+11}{12}-\frac{1 \times 12+4}{12}

\frac{36+11}{12}-\frac{12+4}{12}=\frac{47}{12}-\frac{16}{12}=\frac{47-16}{12}=\frac{31}{12}

As there are no common terms to cancel it is in lowest form.

Hence, the lowest form of the given expression is \frac{31}{12}

What is the greatest common factors of 120 and 6
horrorfan [7]
If we want to know the greatest common factor, we should ask: is one of the numbers divisible by the other? if yes, then the smaller number will be the answer!

let's try:

\frac{120}{6} = \frac{60}{3} =20

so, yes!
6 is the greatest common factor of the two:)
