Let l and l-6 be the length and width, respectively, of the rectangle. Then:
l(l-6)=40
l²-6l-40=0
(l-10)(l+4)=0
l=10,-4
The rectangle is 10" by 4". ☺☺☺☺

Triangle XYZ, XY= 80, ZY= 64 XZ= 48 what is the cosine
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

cos=\frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Cosine is the adjacent side over the hypotenuse (You can remember sin, cos, and tan by using sohcahtoa or sin = opposite/hypotenuse, cos = adjacent/hypotenuse, tan = opposite over adjacent). I think a picture would help, too.

I attached a picture of what I think the triangle would look like.

If the picture is right (we're assuming it is) and going with what we're given (the triangle was addressed as triangle XYZ, meaning that <u>angle Y is in the middle and that's the one we'll use</u>).

Looking at my picture then:

cos=\frac{64}{80} \\cos=\frac{8}{10} \\cos=\frac{4}{5} .

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle are three sides of two sides being equal in lengths.

If that is the case, the two opposite slanting sides which are equal, must be longer. Invariably, the third side is 12.

Cheryl paid $37.20 for 12 gallons of ice cream for a school picnic. How much would 1 quart of ice cream cost?
Stells [14]
First, you need to get to one gallon, which is 37.20 divided by 12. (3.1)
Divide that number by four, which is: 0.775, or 0.78 rounded up to the nearest hundredth.
Hope that helped.
