Answer:

27 feet of fencing will be required to enclose the triangular garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Adaline is designing a garden in the shape of a 45º-45º-90º triangle, with an area of 32 ft².

So, the triangle is isosceles right triangle with, Base = Height = x ft. (Say)

So, the area of the triangle,  \frac{1}{2} \times (\textrm {Base}) \times (\textrm {Height}) = 32

⇒  \frac{1}{2} x^{2} = 32

⇒ x² = 64

⇒ x = 8 feet.

So, the hypotenuse = \sqrt{8^{2} + 8^{2}} = 8\sqrt{2} = 11.3 feet.

Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle will be = (8 + 8 + 11.3) = 27.3 ≈ 27 feet.

So, 27 feet of fencing will be required to enclose the triangular garden. (Answer)

Answer:

27 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A garden in the shape of a 45º-45º-90º triangle.

Area of triangle= 32 ft²

As given dimension of triangle, we understand that it is a right angle and triangle and since two angles are equal, therefore two sides of triangle are also equal.  

∴ Base and height will be equal.

Assuming base is also as "h"

Now, finding the length of base and height by using area of triangle formula.

Area of triangle=  \frac{1}{2} \times base\times height

⇒32= \frac{1}{2} \times h\times h  

Multiplying both side by 2

⇒64= h^{2}  

Square rooting both side, remember; √a²= a

⇒  \sqrt{64} = h

∴ h= 8 feet

Hence, both base and height of right angle triangle is 8 feet.

Next, finding total fencing required to enclose the garden.

Perimeter of garden is equal to the amount of fencing required by Adaline.

Therefore, finding the length of hypotenous of triangle too.

Using pythogorean theoram.

h^{2} = a^{2} +b^{2}, where a is the height and b is the base of triangle.

⇒ h^{2}= 8^{2}  +8^{2}

⇒ h^{2} = 128

Square rooting both side

⇒h= \sqrt{128}

∴ h= 11.3 feet

Perimeter of garden= base+height+hypotenous

⇒ Perimeter of garden= 8+8+11.3= 27.3\ feet \approx 27\ feet

Hence, 27 feet fencing is required to enclose the garden.

Answer:

m ∠JPN = 131°    

Step-by-step explanation:

m ∠JPL = m ∠MPK                         Vertical angles are =

7x + 19 = 11x -17                               Substitution  

- 4x =  -36                                      Algebra: Solving for x

   x = 9                                           Algebra: Solving for x

 m ∠JPL = 82°                              Substitution x = 9 into m ∠JPL = 7x +19

m ∠JPL + m ∠LPK = 180°             Definition of linear pair/supplement

                                                     angles = 180°

82° + m ∠LPK = 180°                      Substitution    

            m ∠LPK = 98°                     Algebra

m ∠LPK = m ∠LPN + m ∠NPK        Angle addition Theorem

       PN bisects ∠LPK                     Given    

m ∠LPN = m ∠NPK                          Definition of angle bisector

98 ° = 2 ( m ∠LPN)                           Substitution  

    m ∠LPN = 49°                             Algebra

m ∠JPN = m ∠JPL + m ∠LPN         Angle Addition

 m ∠JPN = 82° + 49°                     Substitution  

m ∠JPN = 131°                                 Addition

What is the equation of a line that has a slope of-2/3 and a y intercept of 1.25
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The equation of this line would be y = -2/3x + 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, first start with the base form for slope-intercept form.

y = mx + b

Now input the slope for m and the intercept for b.

y = -2/3x + 1.25
