Answer: 12 inches</h3>
=============================================================
Explanation:
Notice the double tickmarks on segments WZ and ZY. This tells us the two segments are the same length. Let's say they are m units long, where m is a placeholder for a positive number.
That would mean m+m = 2m represents the length of segment WY, but that's equal to 10 as the diagram shows. We have 2m = 10 lead to m = 5 after dividing both sides by 2.
We've shown that WZ and ZY are 5 units long each. In short, we just cut that length of 10 in half.
-----------------------------------
Let's focus on triangle XYZ. This is a right triangle with legs XZ = unknown and ZY = 5. The hypotenuse is XY = 13.
We'll use the pythagorean theorem to find XZ
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(XZ)^2 + (ZY)^2 = (XY)^2
(XZ)^2 + (5)^2 = (13)^2
(XZ)^2 + 25 = 169
(XZ)^2 = 169-25
(XZ)^2 = 144
XZ = sqrt(144)
XZ = 12
Segment XZ is 12 inches long.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- An airplane leaves Los Angeles for Denver at a speed of 430 mph. Thirty minutes later another plane going from Denver to Los Angeles leaves Denver, which ... So to begin with plane 1 got a 30 minute head start, so since it was going at 430 miles per ... LOS ANGELES - DENVER...430 miles/hour, x hours.
All you have to do is subtract 10 from 3, which equals -7, and there you have an integer
