Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ∠ 1 = ∠ 2 then the segment is an angle bisector and the ratios of sides to base are equal, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
x(x - 4) = 12 ← distribute left side
x² - 4x = 12 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
x² - 4x - 12 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
However, x > 0 , thus x = 6
Answer:
72
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 12 inches in a foot.
Therefore in 8 feet there are 96 inches
Therefore the square floor is 96 * 96.
Therefore the area of the square floor is 9216 inches squared.
Each tile is 8 inches by 8 inches meaning it has an area of 64 inches squared.
9216 / 64 = 144.
Therefore 144 tiles are needed to tile the floor
Since each tile is 50 cents, 144 * 0.5 = 72
Therefore it costs 72 dollars to tile the floor.
Answer:
136 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = 1,156 in² = side x side
Side = √1,156 = 34 in
Perimeter = 4 x side = 4 x 34 = 136 in
1056/4=264 1056-264=792
First you do 1056 divide it by 4 and then get the answer. Then you do 1056 subtract it by the answer and that is your answer
