This is a multistep problem. So, let's split it up.

Finding the height:
We need to look at the equation for find the diagonal of a triangle.
a²+b²=c²
We don't have leg one, but we have leg two. If we subtract the longer base by the shorter base, we have leg two.
11-7=4
a²+4²=5²
a²+16=25; let's subtract 16 from both sides.
a²=9
a=3

So, the height is 3.

Finding the area of the trapzoid:
Let's look at the formula for finding the area.
(b1+b2)(h÷2)=A; let's fill the variables in.
(7+11)(3÷2)=A
(18)(1.5)=A
27=A

So, the area of the trapezoid is 27 in²

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

chord makes  or arc make 120° at the center.

sum of other two angles of triangle=180-120=60

because they are equal.

so each angle=60/2=30°

tangent line makes angle 90° with radius .

so 30+y=90

y=90-30=60°

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (–2,7) and has a slope of zero?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x1 = -2

y1 = 7

slope (m) = 0

y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )

y - 7 = 0 ( x - (-2) )

y - 7 = 0 ( x + 2 )

y - 7 = 0

y = 7

What is the greatest common factor of 28x²y-7xy^5?
Alchen [17]
The greatest common factor of this can be solved by looking at the individual parts and splitting it up.

First, we have 28 and 7.  Well, thats an easy one.  7 goes into 28 4 times so we are now left with 4 and 1.

We can also write the rest of this like this 4(x*x*y) - 1(x*y*y*y*y*y)

Now, what values are in both equations.  We have one x and one y that can be taken out of both.

We end up with 7xy(4x-7y^4)
