Answer: the perimeter of the larger triangle is 22 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of both triangles is shown in the attached photo. The isosceles triangles are triangle ABC and triangle DEF

Perimeter of triangle ABC = 11

For an isosceles triangle, the other two sides are equal. If one equal side is x, then the sum of the two equal sides is x+x = 2x

Perimeter of triangle = sum of the lengths of the 3 sides. Therefore,

11 = 5 + 2x

2x = 11-5 = 6

x = 6/2 = 3

The base of the similar triangle is 10. It means that it is 2 times the base of the smaller triangle. That means the scale factor is 2. Therefore,

If the perimeter of the small triangle is 11, the Perimeter of the larger triangle will be 2 × perimeter of the smaller triangle. This becomes

2 × 11 = 22 units.

It can also be determined by adding the length of each side

3×2 + 3×2 + 5×2 = 6+6+10 = 22 units

Solve for (0,2π]<br> 2cos ß * sin ß = cos ß
Temka [501]

Given :

An equation, 2cos ß sin ß = cos ß .

To Find :

The value for above equation in (0, 2π ] .

Solution :

Now, 2cos ß sin ß = cos ß

2 sin ß = 1

sin ß = 1/2

We know, sin ß = sin (π/6)  or sin ß = sin (5π/6) in  ( 0, 2π ] .

Therefore,

\beta = \dfrac{\pi}{6}\ or\ \beta = \dfrac{5\pi}{6}

Hence, this is the required solution.

The value of sin^2 30° - cos^2 30° is​
natulia [17]

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Im not going to go into detail about how to compute sin30 and cos 30, but know that sine and cosine are just the ratios between the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle with a hypothenuse of 1.

With that being said:

sin^2 30 - cos^2 30

=  (1/2)^2 - ((sqrt3)/2)^2

= 1/4 - 3/4

= -1/2

A line passes (-8,-2) and has a slope of 5/4. Write an equation in Ax + By=C
klemol [59]

Answer:

5x-4y = -32

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the equation in point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - -2 = 5/4 ( x- -8)

y+2 = 5/4 (x+8)

Multiply each side by 4 to clear the fraction

4( y+2 )= 4*5/4 (x+8)

4y +8 = 5(x+8)

4y+8 = 5x+40

Subtract 4y from each side

8 = 5x-4y +40

Subtract 40 from each side

-32 = 5x-4y

5x-4y = -32
