The length of AC is 8

The length of 1/2 of AC = 4 (set the "4" point as D)
DC = 4

DC = 4,DB = 3, CB = x

Use the pythagoream theorem.

4² + 3² = x²
16 + 9 = x²
25 = x²

root both sides to isolate the x
√25 = √x²
x = √25
x, or CB = 5

Add all the sides together. Remember, CB = 5, DC = 4, & DB = 3
5 + 4 + 3 = 12

12, or (A) is your answer

hope this helps

Answer:  The correct option is (D) 18 units.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the perimeter of triangle ABC.

As shown in the attached figure below, triangle ABC is divided into two right-angled triangles ABD and ACD.

From the figure, we note that

AC = 8 units.

And the side lengths AB and BC are calculated using Pythagoras theorem of right-angled triangles as follows :

AB=\sqrt{AD^2+BD^2}=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=\sqrt{25}=5~\textup{units},\\\\BC=\sqrt{CD^2+BD^2}=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=\sqrt{25}=5~\textup{units}.

We know that the perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of the three sides.

Therefore, the required PERIMETER of ΔABC is given by

P=AB+BC+AC=5+5+8=18~\textup{units}.

Thus, the perimeter of ΔABC is 18 units.

Option (D) is CORRECT.

Which of the following has a constant of proportionality of 2? A) y = 2x B) y = x + 2 C) 2y = x D) y + 2 = 2x
Setler [38]

The correct answer is A.


You have direct variation if x and y are modeled by the equation


y = mx


In this case, m is the constant of proportionality. So, if the constant has to be 2, the equation becomes


y = 2x


A side note: Actually, option C has a constant of proportionality of two as well, except the roles of x and y are interchanged. I chose option A because usually you want the y = mx form, but the names of the variables are obviously meaningless.

4cos(10x)+2=2<br><br> What would this equal in Degrees??
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Simplifying

4cos(10x) + 2 = 2

Remove parenthesis around (10x)

4cos * 10x + 2 = 2

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

4 * 10cos * x + 2 = 2

Multiply 4 * 10

40cos * x + 2 = 2

Multiply cos * x

40cosx + 2 = 2

Reorder the terms:

2 + 40cosx = 2

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.

2 + -2 + 40cosx = 2 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

0 + 40cosx = 2 + -2

40cosx = 2 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

40cosx = 0

Solving

40cosx = 0

Solving for variable 'c'.

Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '40'.

cosx = 0.0

Simplifying

cosx = 0.0

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
