The answer is B. He is incorrect because he should have only 5 factors of 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
base is 12, hypotenuse is 20
so X² is h²-b²
so X=16
In triangle ABC, angle B is 90° and angle A is 45° => triangle ABC is Isosceles triangle. That means side AB = BC
Also, side AC² = AB² + BC² = 2BC²
(6√2)² = 2BC² => 36*2
BC = 6
In triangle BCD, angle D is 90° and angle B is 60° => triangle BCD is semi Equilateral triangle. That means side BD = ½BC = 6/2 = 3 which is the value of X.
Good luck
Answer:
34.6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The lenght of fencing required is the total distance between point A to B, B to C, C to D, and D to A. That is the distance between all 4 corners of the meadow.
The coordinates of the corners of the meadow is shown on a coordinate plane in the attachment. (See attachment below).
Let's use the distance formula to calculate the distance between the 4 corners of the meadow using their coordinates as follows:
Distance between point A(-6, 2) and point B(2, 6):

Let,





(nearest tenth)
Distance between B(2, 6) and C(7, 1):

Let,





(nearest tenth)
Distance between C(7, 1) and D(3, -5):

Let,





(nearest tenth)
Distance between D(3, -5) and A(-6, 2):

Let,





(nearest tenth)
Length of fencing required = 8.9 + 7.1 + 7.2 + 11.4 = 34.6 units
