Answer:

So the answer is False

Step-by-step explanation:

A scalene triangle has no equal sides so it has no lines of symmetry as a line of symmetry would divide the triangle evenly. Therefore, the answer is never. A scalene triangle NEVER has symmetry with respect to a line containing an altitude of the triangle.

Hope this helps! ;-)

The answer to this statement is FALSE. A Scalene triangle is a triangle with no equal side lengths, so a line that contains the altitude of the traingle divides the triangle into two triangles with different sizes, so it has no symmetry.

The combined area of the 3 windowpanes and frame shown below is 924 in.2. The frame is of uniform width. What is the side length

wariber [46]

Answer:

Option A. $x=10\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The combined area of the 3 windowpanes and frame is equal to

$(3x+12)(x+12)=924\\ \\3x^{2}+36x+ 12x+144=924\\ \\ 3x^{2}+48x-780=0$

using a graphing tool to solve the quadratic equation

The solution is $x=10\ in$

Please help on two math questions. I don’t understand how to do them.

When you represent intervals on the number line, you're including full dots, excluding empty dots, and you're considering numbers highlighted by the line.

In the first case, you've highlighted everything before -2 (full dot, thus included), and everything after 1 (empty dot, excluded). So, the set would be

$x\leq -2 \lor\ x>1$

or, in interval notation,

$(-\infty,-2]\cup (1,\infty)$

In the second case, you are looking for all numbers between -3 and 5. This interval is symmetric with respect to 1: you're considering all numbers that are at most 4 units away from 1, both to the left and to the right.

This means that the difference between your numbers at 1 must be at most 4, which is modelled by

$|x-1|\leq 4$
