In an isosceles triangle, there are two sides that are congruent.
In this case, AB and BC are congruent.
Knowing this, we know that AB = BC
Since we know the values of AB and BC, we can put them into the equation:
3x - 4 = 5x - 10
Subtract 3x from both sides:
-4 = 2x - 10
Add 10 to both sides to isolate 'x':
6 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 3
Now that we know the value of the variable, we just have to input it into AB's equation:
3x - 4 = 3(3) - 4
3(3) - 4 = 9 - 4
9 - 4 = 5
<u>AB = 5</u>
Good luck!
Answer:
4/1
Step-by-step explanation:
hope that helps :))))
For small angles, x, in radians,
tan(x) ≈ sin(x) = x
Use this to create an approximate diagram for the problem as shown in the figure below.
The actual deflected shape is parabolic, but it is approximated by an isosceles triangle with small equal angles.
The extend length is 3 km + 12 cm, which is
3000 + 0.12 = 3000.12 m
Half of the extended length is 1500.06 m
Let h+ the rise of the center of the rail above ground.
From the Pythagorean theorem, obtain
h² + 1500² = 1500.6²
h² = 1500.06² - 1500² = 180.004
h = 13.4 m, which is about 0.9% of the original length.
Answer: 13.4 m
Answer:
20 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
3 miles in half an hour(30 minutes) mean Mr. Light runs at an average speed of 1 mile per 10 minutes. To run 2 miles, he would take 20 minutes.
Answer:
y=3x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
take two points, (1,13) (2,19)
subtract using slope formula
19-13 2-1= 6/1 -> 6-> 3
find your y intercept (b) by using the first term in the 7 row (7)
