Our goal is to solve for x
We will first add 7 to both sides
9x = 27
We will then divide both sides by 9
x = 3
The answer is clearly C because it just is
Answer:
10 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume that DC is parallel to AB, then triangle DOC is similar to triangle AOB.
However, even with this assumption, there is not enough information in the diagram to solve for DO. We would also need to know the length of CO. Then we could write a proportion:
DO / (DO + 20) = CO / (CO + 24)
Edit: OD is 2 cm shorter than OC. If we call x the length of OD, then the length of OC is x+2.
Putting this into our proportion:
x / (x + 20) = (x + 2) / (x + 2 + 24)
x / (x + 20) = (x + 2) / (x + 26)
Cross multiply:
x (x + 26) = (x + 2) (x + 20)
Distribute:
x² + 26x = x² + 20x + 2x + 40
x² + 26x = x² + 22x + 40
4x = 40
x = 10
So the length of DO is 10 cm.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>As per diagram we have:</u>
<u>As per 30° right triangle property:</u>
- CD = √3×CB/2 = 3√3 ≈ 5.2 cm
- and
- AC = 2CD = 2×5.2 = 10.4 cm
<u>Area of triangle:</u>
- A = 1/2bh
- A = 1/2CB*AC
- A = 1/2*5.2*10.4 ≈ 27 cm²
That looks confusing can u explain better
