Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle create two smaller triangles, all of which are similar to the original. This means corresponding sides are proportional.
3. Using the above relationship, ...
short-side/hypotenuse = 8/y = y/(8+23)
y^2 = 8·31
y = 2√62
__
long-side/hypotenuse = z/(8+23) = 23/z
z^2 = 23·31
z = √713
__
short-side/long-side = 8/x = x/23
x^2 = 8·23
x = 2√46
_____
4. The picture is fuzzy, but we think the lengths are 25 and 5. If they're something else, use the appropriate numbers. Using the same relations we used for problem 3,
y = √(5·25) = 5√5 . . . . . . . = √(short segment × hypotenuse)
z = √(20·25) = 10√5 . . . . . = √(long segment × hypotenuse)
x = √(5·20) = 10 . . . . . . . . . = √(short segment × long segment)
Answer: length: 7cm
width:4cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Area: L × W
7×4=28
Perimeter =L±L+W+W
7+7+4+4=22
Answer:
The length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the yard
The width can be represented by x - 2, since it is 2 less than the length.
Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is width
Plug in the expressions and perimeter:
20 = 2x + 2(x - 2)
Solve for x:
20 = 2x + 2x - 4
20 = 4x - 4
24 = 4x
6 = x
So, the length is 6. Plug this into x - 2 to find the width
x - 2
6 - 2
= 4
So, the length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet
