Answer:

  • ED = 2√19 inches
  • A(EDCB) = 2√34 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to solving this problem is to recognize that the horizontal distance from AD to E is 2×AB, and the vertical distance from AB to E is 2×BC.* This gives rise to two equations using the Pythagorean theorem:

  • AB² +BC² = 5²
  • AB² +(2×BC)² = 7²

Subtracting the first equation from the second, we get ...

  (AB² +4×BC²) -(AB² +BC²) = 49 -25

  3×BC² = 24

  BC = √(24/3) = √8

Then ...

  AB² = 25 -8 = 17

  AB = √17

__

The length ED is also found using the Pythagorean theorem:

  ED² = (2×AB)² +BC² = 4×17 + 8 = 76

  ED = √76

  ED = 2√19 . . . inches

__

The area of triangle EDC is ...

  A(EDC) = (1/2)AB×BC

and the area of triangle ECB is ...

  A(ECB) = (1/2)BC×AB

So the area of EDCB is the sum ...

  A(EDCB) = A(EDC) +A(ECB)

  = (1/2)AB×BC +(1/2)AB×BC = AB×BC

  = (√17)(√8)

  A(EDCB) = 2√34 . . . square inches

_____

* You might be able to better see this if you translate rectangle ABCD so its diagonal AC is coincident with segment CE.

1. a= 60 (vertically opposite angles)

b= 360-(60+60)=240/2= 120 (angles at a point)

c= 120 (vertically opposite angles with b)

2. c= 90-40= 50 (vertically opposite angles)

b=a=360-90-90=180/2=90 (angles at a point)

3. a= 180-52-51= 77 (angles on a straight line)

b=52 (angles at a point)

d=51 (angles at a point)

c=77 (angles at a point)

4. a= 60 (vertically opposite angles)

b= 360-(60+60)=240/2= 120 (angles at a point)

c= 120 (vertically opposite angles with b)

e=65

d=f= 360-65-65=230/2=115

h=55

i=g=360-55-55=250/2=125

5. b=163

a=90

e=70

d=360-70-70=220/2=110

c=360-163-163=34/2=17

Hope this helps!

Data management:<br><br> Find n if <br><br> C ( n+ 2 , 2 ) = 36
Lana71 [14]
Please, Karla, explain what "C" and "n" represent.  Are you talking about combinations (for example, n+2 objects taken n at a time?  Or is C some kind of function?  I don't quite see the relationship of this problem to 'data management.'
