subtract the 2 to find the difference:

279.48 - 250.55 = 28.93

divide difference by actual amount:

28.93 / 279.48 = 0.1035

 rounded to the nearest tenth = 10.4%

The base of a triangle is 7 inches more than 4 times the height. If the area of the triangle is 93 square inches, find the base
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height = h

Let the base = 4h + 7

Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h

Area = 93 square inches

1/2 * (4h + 7)* h = 93            Multiply both sides by 2

(4h + 7) * h = 93*2

(4h + 7)*h = 186                    Remove the brackets

4h^2 + 7h = 186                   Subtract 186 from both sides.

4h^2 + 7h - 186 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve

a = 4

b = 7

c = - 186

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(7^2 - 4*4*(-186) ) /2*4

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 - 16*(-186)) / 8

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 + 2976)) / 8

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(3025)) / 8

x1 = (-7 +55 ) / 8

x1 = (48)/8

x1 = 6

There is another root, but it has to be minus and therefore cannot be used as a length. x2 = - 7.75

h = 6

b = 4*6 + 7 = 31

Check

Area = 1/2 * b * h

Area = 1/2 * 31 * 6

Area = 1/2 *186

Area = 93 which is what we were given so the answer is correct.

Pleas answer it now in two minutes
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

the length measure of OP is 35 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem says that the two shapes are congruent. This means they have the same length and angle measurements. So, in order to find out what OP is, you have to find its corresponding part which is WX. The measurement of WX is 35 yd which means that the measurement of OP is also 35 yd because they are corresponding side lengths therefore being the same.
