What Is The Length Of Side BD?

Mathematics
1 answer:
emmainna [20.7K]4 years ago

This is a rectangle, meaning that all angles are right angles and all sides opposite to one another have equal length.

Since the length of CD is 24, the length of AB must also be 24.
Angle B is a right angle because this is a rectangle.

See anything? I'll you a hint. We have a right triangle with only one missing value.

What do we use to solve for missing lengths in a right triangle? The Pythagorean theorem, of course!

a^2+b^2=c^2

The length of c (the hypotenuse) is 26.
The length of a (one leg) is 24.
The length of b is unknown and we want to find it.

24^2+b^2=26^2

576+b^2=676

Subtract 576 by both sides.

b^2=100

Take square root of both sides.

b=10

The length of the missing leg is 10, meaning that the length of BD is 10.

This is what you should be needing. Enjoy!

What is the distance between (8, -3), (4,-7)?
Papessa [141]

Answer:

4\sqrt{2} which is none of your choices....

Did you mean (8,-3) and (4,-7)?

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to first find the distance between the x's.

Then the distance between the y's.

The distance between the x's is 8-4=4.

The distance between the y's is -3-(-7)=4.

So the distance between two points (x_1,y1)\text{ and }(x_2,y_2) is \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}.

So we already found x1-x2 and y1-y2 so now we have:

\sqrt{(4)^2+(4)^2}

\sqrt{16+16}

\sqrt{2(16)

\sqrt{16}\sqrt{2}

4\sqrt{2}

Heyy!! Can someone help me please!!
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

7x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

the first thing to do is expand the parentheses/brackets.

3(5x + 2) -2(4x - 4) will be

3(5x) + 3(2) -2(4x) -2(-4)

= 15x + 6 - 8x + 8

collect like terms

15x - 8x + 6 + 8 = 7x + 14

the answer is 7x + 14

Two boards, one four inches wide and the other six inches wide, are nailed together to form an X. The angle at which they cross
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The area of the unpainted region on the four inch board = 160·√3 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have that the boards are crossing each other on their flat sides Therefore, when the boards are separated, the area of the unpainted region is the area of a parallelogram

The dimensions of the formed parallelogram are;

Interior angles = 60° and 120° (adjacent angles of a parallelogram)

Height, h of parallelogram formed = 4 inches

From the angle of crossing of the parallelogram, we have;

Angle between the width or perpendicular cross section of the 6 inches board and the angle of crossing of the two boards = 90° - 60° = 30°

Therefore, length of base, b of the parallelogram formed by the unpainted region is given as follows;

b = \frac{60}{cos(30)}  = 40\cdot \sqrt{3} \ inches

Therefore, the area of the parallelogram = b × h = 4 × 40·√3 = 160·√3 in.²

Hence, the area of the unpainted region on the four inch board = 160·√3 in.².
