We have an isosceles triangle  and 2 lines that are drawn through some ( any ) point on the base. The both lines are parallel to one of the legs. Then those lines with the legs of the triangle make a parallelogram. We can say that x and y are the sides of the parallelogram. Then: x + y = 5 in. And the perimeter of the parallelogram: P = 2 x + 2 y = 2 * ( x + y ).
P = 2 * 5 = 10 in.  The rest is in the attachment.
Answer: The perimeter of the constructed parallelogram is 10 inches.

Answer:

\frac{-11}{25}+\frac{-27}{25}i given you are asked to simplify

\frac{-3+5i}{-3-4i}

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to multiply the numerator and denominator by the denominator's conjugate.

The conjugate of a+bi is a-bi.

When you multiply conjugates, you just have to multiply first and last.

(a+bi)(a-bi)

a^2-abi+abi-b^2i^2

a^2+0         -b^2(-1)

a^2+-b^2(-1)

a^2+b^2

See no need to use the whole foil method; the middle terms cancel.

So we are multiplying top and bottom of your fraction by (-3+4i):

\frac{-3+5i}{-3-4i} \cdot \frac{-3+4i}{-3+4i}=\frac{(-3+5i)(-3-4i)}{(-3-4i)(-3+4i)}

So you will have to use the complete foil method for the numerator. Let's do that:

(-3+5i)(-3+4i)

First: (-3)(-3)=9

Outer::  (-3)(4i)=-12i

Inner: (5i)(-3)=-15i

Last: (5i)(4i)=20i^2=20(-1)=-20

--------------------------------------------Combine like terms:

9-20-12i-15i

Simplify:

-11-27i

Now the bottom (-3-4i)(-3+4i):

F(OI)L (we are skipping OI)

First:-3(-3)=9

Last: -4i(4i)=-16i^2=-16(-1)=16

---------------------------------------------Combine like terms:

9+16=25

So our answer is \frac{-11-27i}{25}{/tex] unless you want to seprate the fraction too:[tex]\frac{-11}{25}+\frac{-27}{25}i

Answer:

l=95

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is all the sides add up. So the equation if you know two of the sides, it should be: 338=(2*74)+(2*l)
