A Number is divided by 3. Then ,5 is added to the quotient snd the results is 8 what is the number

Answer:

n=9

Explanation:

First, let's give a name to the number we are looking for and call it n.

So we can then write "A number is divided by 3" as n3

To add 5 to the quotient would then give us the expression n3+5

If this results in 8 we can finally write the equation we are trying to solve and solve the equation for n while keeping the equation balanced:

n3+5=8

n3+5−5=8−5

n3+0=3

n3=3

3⋅n3=3⋅3

1n=9

n=9

The number is 9
set it up
you will have n over 3 plus five equals 8 . substract 5 from both sides then you will have n over 3 equals 3 . you have to multiply the n over 3 by 3 to get rid of the 3 and you multiply the 3 on the other side by three to get n equals 9

Prove that the triangle EDF is isosceles. Give reasons for your answer.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please have a look at the attached figure.

We are given the following things:

$\angle EDF = y$

$\text{External }\angle DFG = 90 +\dfrac{y}{2}$

Let us try to find out $\angle E$ and $\angle DFE$ . After that we will compare them.

Finding  $\angle DFE$ :

Side EG is a straight line so $\angle GFE = 180$

$\angle GFE$ is sum of internal $\angle DFE$ and external $\angle DFG$

$\angle GFE = 180 = \angle DFE + \angle DFG\\\Rightarrow 180 = \angle DFE + (90+\dfrac{y}{2})\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 180 - 90 - \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 90 - \dfrac{y}{2} ....... (1)$

Finding  $\angle E$ :

Property of external angle: External angle in a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite internal angles of a triangle.

i.e. external $\angle DFG$ = $\angle E + \angle EDF$

$\Rightarrow 90+\dfrac{y}{2} = \angle E + y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90+\dfrac{y}{2} -y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90-\dfrac{y}{2} ....... (2)$

Comparing equations (1) and (2):

It can be clearly seen that:

$\angle DFE = \angle E =90-\dfrac{y}{2}$

The two angles of $\triangle EDF$ are equal hence $\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

In triangle ABC, the measure of ∠B is 90°, BC=16, and AC=20. Triangle DEF is similar to triangle ABC, where vertices D, E, and F

nevsk [136]

The third side of triangle ABC is AB. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, its length is 12.
12² + 16² = 20²

∠F is congruent to ∠C and so the sin(∠F) = sin(∠C)

The sin(∠C) = opposite/hypotenuse
= |AB| / |AC|
= 12/20
= 3/5
= 0.6

Answer:
Yes, it is 0.6
