Answer:

third option 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

G is the bigger triangle with side lengths: 8, 8 and 4

F is the smaller triangle with side lengths: 2, 2 and 1

G to F:

8/x = 2

Rearrange and x would equal 1/4

4/x = 1

Rearrange and x would equal 1/4

A square of area 36cm is cut to make two rectangles a and b the ratio of area a to b is 2:1 work ou the dimensions of rectangles
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The dimensions of rectangle a are 6x4 and dimensions of rectangle b are 6x2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a square with area 36 squared cm. Therefore, dimension of the square will be 6 cm.

The square is cut into two rectangles with areas in the ratio 2:1.

Let the dimensions of the rectangles be 6*a and 6*b. Therefore, we can set up the ratio of areas as:

\frac{6a}{6b}=\frac{2}{1}  \\a=2b

Moreover, we can set the combined area of rectangles equal to the area of square to form another equation:

6a+6b=36\\a+b=6

Using substitution method, we can solve for 'a' and 'b' as shown below:

2b+b=6\\3b=6\\b=2

And

a=2b\\a=2(2)\\a=4

Therefore, dimensions of the two rectangles are 6x4 and 6x2, respectively.

The measure of the 3 angles in a triangle are (4x) degrees,(3x-3) degrees, and (5x+3)degrees. Please write an equation, solve fo
spin [16.1K]
This is a good one!

So we know that a triangle's angles must add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, we can say that:

(3x - 3) + (5x + 3) + (4x) = 180.

This can be rewritten as 12x = 180.

Divide each side by 12 to get x alone, you get:

x = 15

Time to plug n' chug.

4x = 60, 3x - 3 = 42, 5x + 3 = 78

Boom!

A triangle has two sides of length 4 and 15. What is the smallest possible whole-number length for the third side
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The smallest whole number length is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of any two sides of any triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

In this case, the two smallest sides of the triangle must be greater than the third side to satisfy the statement above.

Let "x" = the length of the third side.

Our two smaller sides are "x" and "4", and their sum must be greater than 15.

x + 4 > 15

x > 15 - 4

x > 11
