PLEASEEEE HELPPPPP MEEEEEE!!!! Find h in the diagrams below.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leno4ka [110]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  • 9.6
  • 11.2

Step-by-step explanation:

It is useful to label the diagram so we can talk about the parts. (See the attachment.)

AB and CD are parallel lines, crossed by transversal AE. So, angles FAE and CDE are congruent. These are acute angles in a right triangle, so the triangles AFD and DEC are similar by the AA postulate.

This similarity means that corresponding sides are proportional:

  CE/CD = DF/DA

  CE = CD(DF/DA) = 16(6/10) = h

  h = 9.6

__

The second problem is identical to the first, but with different numbers.

  CE = CD(DF/DA) = 14(8/10) = h

  h = 11.2

a rectangle is 4 centimeters longer than it is wide. the area is 117 square centimeters. find the dimensions of the rectangle
vekshin1

Answer:

  • width: 9 cm
  • length: 13 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Integer factors of 117 include ...

... 117 = 1×117 = 3×39 ≈ 9×13

The last factor pair is two factors that differ by 4. We can take these to be the dimensions of the rectangle.

_____

If you want to write an equation for width (w), it might be ...

... w(w+4) = 117

... w² +4w -117 = 0

The factorization problem for this quadratic is the problem of finding two factors of 117 that differ by 4. That is what we have done, above.

If you want to solve this by completing the square, you can to this:

... w² +4w = 117

... w² +4w +4 = 121 . . . . . add 4 = (4/2)² to complete the square

... (w+2)² = 121

... w + 2 = ±√121 = ±11 . . . . take the square root

... w = -2 ± 11 . . . . . we're only interested in the positive solution

... w = 9, then w+4 = 13 and the dimensions are 9 cm by 13 cm.

Can someone help me with this math problem
Elis [28]

Answer:

C. Divide both sides of the equation by -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal of the equation is to isolate x. In order to do that we have to remove the '-2' by doing the inverse operation. That is the opposite operation, for example addition and subtraction, multiplication and division.

Since x is being multiplied by -2, we do the inverse which is division.

If the statement "If I am hungry, then I am not happy" is assumed to be true, is its inverse, "If I am not hungry, then I must b
elena55 [62]
No -- other factors will influence whether your happy or not. Saying that is true is inductive reasoning, which is prone to error
