Answer: NP= 16 cm

Explanation:

As we shown in the figure below :

Since P is the midpoint of MN and  NQ

So, We consider ΔMNP and ΔPQR,

∠MPN=∠QPR  (∵ Vertically opposite angles are equal)

MP=PR  (∵ P is the mid point of MR)

NP=PQ  (∵P is the midpoint of NQ)

So, ΔMNQ ≅ ΔPQR  (∵By SAS congruence )

∴ 26=6x+2 \text{(By CPCT )}\\26-2=6x\\24=6x\\\frac{24}{6}=x\\4=x

So, NP=3x+4=3\times 4+4=12+4=16 cm

If f(x) = 2x² + 5, then what is the remainder when f (x) is divided by x – 10?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 10 = 0

x = 10

f(10) = 2*10² + 5 = 2*100 + 5 = 200 + 5

      = 205

Remainder = 205

SOLVE THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT EQUATION
finlep [7]

Answer:

<em>Option B; EF = ( About ) 4.47 units, Perimeter of Δ EFG = ( About ) 12.94 units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to consider the height of this triangle EFG, it would be 4 units of length, supposedly splitting base GF into two ≅ parts, each 2 units of length. First let us name the point drawn to base GF ⇒ point H, so that the height of Δ EFG ⇒ EH. Now as EH splits GF into two ≅ parts, by Converse to Coincidence Theorem, Δ EFG ⇒ Isosceles Δ;

EH and FH are legs of a right triangle EFH, so that Pythagorean Theorem can be applied to solve for the length of EF and EG, knowing that as Δ EFG ⇒ Isosceles Δ, EF ≅ EG;

( EH )^2 + ( FH )^2 = ( EF )^2,

( 4 )^2 + ( 2 )^2 = ( EF )^2 ⇒ take square of 4 & 2,

16 + 4 = ( EF )^2 ⇒ combine like terms,

( EF )^2 = 20 ⇒ take square root on either side to solve for EF,

EF = √ 20 =<em> ( About ) 4.47 units</em> = EG,

Perimeter of Δ EFG = EF + GF + EG = 4.47 + 4 + 4.47 = <em>( About ) 12.94 units,</em>

<em>Solution; Option B</em>
