Given


Sofia cuts a piece in the shape of a kite for an art project  

top two sides measure 20 cm each  

bottom two sides measure 13 cm each.  

One diagonal, EG, measures 24 cm


Find out the length of the other diagonal, DF.


To proof  

As given in the question and also shown in the diagram shown below


DE = EF = 20cm


DG = GF = 13cm


EG = 24cm


DF = ?


In kite shape


One diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other diagonal.


i.e EG is the perpendicular bisector of DF


i.e EG is divided into two equal parts


thus EA = AG = 12cm


in Δ EAF


By applying the pythagorus theorem


we have


EF² = FA²+ EA²


20² = 12² + FA²


400 -144 = FA²


256 =FA²


\sqrt{256} =FA


16cm = FA


Now in Δ DAG


DG² = AG² + DA²


13² = 12 ²+ DA²


169 -144 = DA²


25 = DA²


\sqrt{25} =DA


5cm = DA


Thus diagonal DF = DA + FA


= 5 + 16


= 21cm


Hence proved

YOOOO I NEED HELP on this too and do these
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

8. 504ft²

9. 4970yd² (rounded to 3 s.f.)  

Formulas (For easy reference):

Area of rectangle = length × breadth

Area of circle = pi×r×r

Circumference of circle = pi×r×2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step-by-step explanation:

8. You know a box has 6 sides, and there are 3 types of surfaces that are different from each other, and you have to multiply each side by 2 cus there are the front and backside (You can draw the box with its dimensions to see the 3 types of surfaces and why I multiplied by 2):

(2×12×6) + (2×12×10) + (2×6×10) = 144 + 240 + 120

                                                   = 504ft²

9. The net of a cylinder contains two circles of radius 24yd and one long sheet to wrap around the circles with the length that is the circumference of the circle (so that it can wrap around the two circles) and a width which is the height of the cylinder (9yd).

2 Circles = 2×pi×24×24

                = 1152pi

Long sheet = 9×24×2×pi

                   = 432pi

Now we can add all of them together:

432pi+1152pi = 1584pi

                      = 4970yd² (rounded to 3 s.f.)

1. What is the solution to the system of equations?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) In order to use the elimination method, multiply the second equation by 2.

It becomes 2x + 4y = 20.

Subtract that from the first equation: 3x + 4y = 12

3x + 4y - 2x - 4y = 12 - 20

x = -8

Put that back in the second equation: -8 + 2y = 10

2y = 18

y = 9

(b) In order to use the substitution method, subtract 2y from the second equation.

It becomes x + 2y - 2y = 10 - 2y

x = 10 - 2y

Substitute that into the first equation:

3(10 - 2y) + 4y = 12

30 - 6y + 4y = 12

30 - 2y = 12

2y = 18

y = 9

Put back into the equation for x:

x = 10 - 2(9)

= 10 - 18

= -8

Sin^2 (x)= 3/4 solve the equation for 0
Leni [432]

Answer:

x= π/3,  2π/3, 4π/3,  5π/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin^2 (x) = 3/4

Or, Sin^2 (x) - 3/4= 0

Or, Sin^ (x) - ( root 3/ 2)^ 2 = 0 ( Transformed 3/4 into √3/2 format so that if we square it, the value doesn't change)

Or, (Sin (x) + √3/2) (Sin (x) - √3/2) = 0

Or, Sin (x) =  ± (√3/2)

Hence, x= π/3, 2π/3, 4π/3,  5π/3 as the range is between 0 to 360 degree.
