Answer:

EF =  62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

CG = 11x-5

GD=13x-15

EF=12x+2

Required

Determine EF

Since EF is a bisector of CD at G, then

CG = GD

11x- 5 = 13x - 15

Collect Like Terms

11x - 13x = 5 - 15

-2x = -10

Solve for x

x = -10/-2

x = 5

Substitute 5 for x in EF=12x+2

EF = 12 * 5 + 2

EF =  60+ 2

EF =  62

The diameter of a iron sphere is 8 cm. It is beaten and drawn into a wire with a diameter of 2 mm. Find the length of the wire.
djyliett [7]

Answer : The length of the wire is, 8533 cm

Step-by-step explanation :

As the iron sphere is beaten and drawn into a wire. That means, their volume will be equal.

Volume of iron sphere = Volume of cylindrical wire

The formula will be:

\frac{4}{3}\pi r_1^3=\pi r_2^2h

where,

r_1 = radius of sphere = \frac{Diamtere}{2}=\frac{8cm}{2}=4cm

r_2 = radius of cylindrical wire = \frac{Diamtere}{2}=\frac{2mm}{2}=1mm=0.1cm

h = height of cylindrical wire or length of wire

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\frac{4}{3}\pi r_1^3=\pi r_2^2h

\frac{4}{3}\times r_1^3=r_2^2h

\frac{4}{3}\times (4)^3=(0.1)^2h

h=8533.33cm\approx 8533cm

Therefore, the length of the wire is, 8533 cm

***URGENT*** PLEASE HELP ME ASAP, ITS DUE TODAY!!!
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Construct MN.

Since M is the midpoint of OA, OM = MA

Similarly, N is the midpoint of OB.

Thus, ON = NB.

Now, in Δs OMN and OAB,

∠MON = ∠AOB (common angle)

(sides are in proportional ratio; OA = 2OM and OB = 2ON)

∴ Δs OMN and OAB are similar (2 sides are in proportion, with the included angle)

Since they are similar, then ∠OMN = ∠OAB (corresponding angles of similar triangles are equal)

But since ∠OMN = ∠OAB, then that means MN || AB (corresponding angles of two lines must be equal since they also sit relative to the transverse line, OA)

Thus, AB || MN (QED)
