Trying to find the missing segment to the triangle in the attached image.

Mathematics
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

36 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

we will use concept of basic proportionality theorem,

it states that , when a line is drawn parallel to one side of the triangle and intersect the other two sides then the two sides are divided in the same ratio.

Example:

In a triangle ABC

If  DE is  parallel to BC

D is a point on line AB and E is  point on AC, then

by basic proportionality theorem)

AD/DB = AE/EC

_____________________________________

in the problem  given one side has a parallel line drawn to it

Hence we can use basic proportionality theorem in it

20/30 = 24/?

2/3 = 24/?

=> ? = 24*3/2 = 36

Hence, missing segment value is 36 units.

Which choices are equivalent to the fraction below check all the apply ""24" over 30
user100 [1]

Answer:

c) The reduced form of the given fraction   \frac{24}{30} =  \frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is  "24 over 30".

The given expression is  is equivalent to \frac{24}{30}

Now by Prime Factorization:

24  =  2 x 2 x 2 x 3

30  = 2 x 3 x 5

⇒ The common factors in 24 and 30 is  2 x 3  = 6

So, \frac{24}{30}  = \frac{2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3}{2 \times 3 \times 5}   = \frac{6 \times 4}{6 \times 5}   = \frac{4}{5}

Hence the reduced form of the given fraction   \frac{24}{30} =  \frac{4}{5}

Describe two to evaluate 37% of the sum of 27 and 3/5 and 15.9
zhuklara [117]
First way is to first find the sum and then find 37% of it. Second way is another way round, find 37 of 27 3/5 and 37% of 15.9 and then add it.

Lets do it
37%=0.37
- its the result
Second way its
0.37* 27 3/5 + 0.37*15.9=10.212 + 5.888=16.095

Find the value of X.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

x =25

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an isosceles triangle because RS = ST

that means <r = <STR

4x-70 = STR

<STR + <STU = 180   straight line

subtract < STU from each side

<STR = 180 -<STU

we know angle stu = 6x

<STR = 180 -6x

we can substitute this into 4x-70 = STR

4x-70 = 180 -6x

add 6x to each side

4x+6x -70 = 180 -6x+6x

10x -70 = 180

add 70 to each side

10x-70+70 = 180+70

10x=250

divide by 10

10x/10 = 250/10

x =25
