In a trapezoid the lengths of bases are 11 and 18. The lengths of legs are 3 and 7. The extensions of the legs meet at some poin

Mademuasel [1]

Answer: $7\frac{5}{7}$ unit and 18 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ABCD is a trapezoid where AB and CD are the bases. ( In which AB is greatest base which shown in below figure)

AD and BC are the legs of the trapezoid ABCD.

Now, we have ( According to the question ),

AB = 18 unit, BC = 7 unit, AD = 3 unit and DC = 11 unit.

Here the leg AD extends from point D.

Similarly leg BC extends from point C.

Let they meet at point P ( shown in below diagram)

Since In triangles PAB and PDC,

∠PDC ≅ ∠PAB ( because DC ║ AB )

And, ∠ PAB ≅ ∠ PBA

∠DPC ≅ ∠ APB ( reflexive)

Therefore, By AAA similarity postulate,

$\triangle PDC \sim \triangle PAB$

Thus, By the definition of similarity,

$\frac{PD}{PA} = \frac{DC}{AB}$

$\frac{PD}{PD+3} = \frac{11}{18}$ ( because PA = PD+DA)

⇒ 18 PD = 11 PD +33

⇒7PD = 33

⇒ PD = 33/7

Again by the definition of similarity,

$\frac{PC}{PB} = \frac{DC}{AB}$

$\frac{PC}{PC+7} = \frac{11}{18}$ ( because PB = PC + CB)

⇒ 18 PC = 11 PD +77

⇒7PC = 77

⇒ PC = 11

Thus, PA = PD+DA = 33/7 + 3 = $7\frac{5}{7}$

And, PB = PC + CB = 11 + 7 = 18

Solve with the law of sine

Zinaida [17]

1) Triangle QRT, where q = 32.4 ft, r = 29.8 ft, t = 42.1 ft

No this cannot make a second triangle

2) Triangle ABC, where B = 62°, a = 11.52 m, c = 19.34 m

No this cannot make a second triangle

3) Both of the triangles cannot make a second triangle

The following is a detailed explanation of the sine law: In a triangle, side "a" divided by angle sine "a" equals side "b" divided by angle sine "b" equals side "c" divided by angle sine "c."

The formula for law of sine is written as

Sine A a = Sine B/ b = Sine C / c

These law helps in determining the given angles and sides

For the situation given; both cannot be used to make a second triangle

Pedro has a bag of flour that weighs 9/10 pound. he uses 2/3 of the bag to make gravy. how many pounds of flour does pedro use t

BARSIC [14]

Here is the solution of the given problem above.
First, let's analyze the question.
Given: 1 bag = 9/10 pound
2/3 bag = ? pound
What we are going to do is to divide 9/10 pound to 3.
so 9/10 divided by 3 and we get 9/30 and to simplify that, 3/10.
So per 1/3 of the bag, there is 3/10 pound.
To get the weight for 2/3 of the bag, we multiply 3/10 by 2 and we get 6/10 or to simplify it, it is 3/5. Therefore, the 2/3 bag weights 3/5 pound. Hope this answer helps.

A right triangle in which one acute angle is a reference angle for a 75° angle in standard position intersects the unit circle a

vampirchik [111]

Alright, lets get started.

Please take a look at the diagram attached.

The reference angle of 75 will be 75

As it is mentioned that the angle intersects the unit circle means r = 1

So, finding cos

cos 75 = $\frac{X}{r}$

cos 75 = $\frac{0.259}{1}$

cos 75 = 0.259 : Answer

Hope it will help :)

Evaluate the expression 6+[(-24)÷6]/19

zlopas [31]

The order of operations is defined by the acronym PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).
Therefore
6 + [(-24) ÷ 6] / 19
= 6 + [ -24/6 ] / 19 handle parentheses first
= 6 + (-4) /19
= 6 - 4/19 handle division
= 110/19
= 5 5/9

Answer:
$\frac{110}{19} \,\, or \,\, 5 \, \frac{5}{19} \,\, or \,\, 5.79$
