8x + 16= 18
Collect like terms
8x = 18-16
8x = 2
Divide both sides by 8
8x/8 = 2/8
x =1/4

Mr. Wong cuts a coil of wire into two pieces in the ratio of 3:4. The length of the longer piece is 32 centimeters. What is the
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

56 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the lengths of the pieces is 3:4.

The longer piece is 32 cm.

We set up a proportion to find the length of the smaller piece.

Let the length of the smaller piece be x.

3 is to 4 as x is to 32

3/4 = x/32

4x = 3 * 32

4x = 96

x = 24

The smaller piece is 24 cm.

24 cm + 32 cm = 56 cm

In the isosceles △ABC m∠ACB=120° and AD is an altitude to leg BC . What is the distance from D to base AB , if CD=4cm?
snow_lady [41]

If ΔACB is an isosceles triangle, then ∠A ≅ ∠B and AC ≅ CB

Since ∠C = 120° and ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°, then ∠A = 30° and ∠B = 30°

Next, look at ΔADB.  ∠A + ∠D + ∠B = 180°, so ∠A + 90° + 30° = 180° ⇒ ∠A = 30°

Now look at ΔADC.  Since ∠A = 30° in ΔACB, and ∠A = 60° in ΔADB, then ∠A = 30° in ΔADC <em>per angle addition postulate.</em>

Now that we have shown that ΔADB and ΔADC are 30-60-90 triangles, we can use that formula to calculate the side lengths.

CD = 4 cm (given) so AC = 2(4 cm) = 8 cm

Since AC ≅ BC, then BC = 8 cm. Therefore, BD = 4 + 8 = 12 <em>by segment addition postulate.</em>

Lastly, look at ΔBHD.  Since ∠B = 30° and ∠H = 90°, then ∠D = 60°. So, ΔBHD is also a 30-60-90 triangle.

BD = 12 cm, so HD = \frac{12}{2}cm = 6 cm

Answer: 6 cm
