A) they fornite a right angle and 2 acute angles(not 100% sure of what the Questions is asking)
B) they appear to form a triangle
C) the angles add up to 180 as they always do in all triangles
B)
Answer:56.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
For perimeter we must find the lengths of the 2 diagonal sides of the triangle which are the same because it is isosceles.
the triangle is cut directly in half so both halves of the base are 17/2
17/2 = 8.5
solve through pythagoren theorum
altitude^2 + (half of base)^2 = (diagonal length)^2
18^2 + (8.5)^2 = (diagonal length)^2
324 + 72.25 = (diagonal length)^2
396.3 = (diagonal length)^2
= diagonal length
diagonal length = 19.9
diagonal length + diagonal length + base = perimeter
19.9 + 19.9 + 17 = perimeter
56.8 inches = perimeter
It's a simultaneous equation:
Steps:
1.Number the equations..
a+b=77 -1
a-b=13 -2
2. Choose what variable you want to use. In this case I would use the "b". Since the signs in front of the "b's" are different, add the two equations together
a + b = 77
+ + +
a (-b) = 13
Which gives;
2a = 90
Then solve to find a:
2a=90
a= 90/2
a=45
3.Then plug the "a" value into any of the original equations to find the "b" value. I would use equation 1 since the all the variables are positive.
a + b = 77
(45) + b = 77
b=77-45
b=32
4.Solution
a=45
b=32
5n + (-6) = -2
add 6 to -2
5n = -2 + 6
5n = 4
divide both sides by 5
n = 4/5
Answer:
-1, -3, 2, 5, 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers in the | | mean that it would be positive. Instead of being |-5|, it would be positive 5.
