Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle are three sides of two sides being equal in lengths.

If that is the case, the two opposite slanting sides which are equal, must be longer. Invariably, the third side is 12.

Line m has the equation y = 1/2x - 4

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

As the slopes of both lines 'm' and 'n' are the same.

Therefore, we conclude that the equation x-2y=4 represents the equation of the line 'n' if lines m and n are parallel to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept of line equation is

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the equation of the line m

y = 1/2x - 4

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx + b

Therefore,

The slope of line 'm' will be = 1/2

We know that parallel lines have the 'same slopes, thus the slope of the line 'n' must be also the same i.e. 1/2

Checking the equation of the line 'n'

$x-2y=4$

solving for y to writing the equation in the slope-intercept form and determining the slope

$x-2y=4$

Add -x to both sides.

$x - 2y + (-x) = 4+(-x)$

$-2y = 4 - x$

Divide both sides by -2

$\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{-x+4}{-2}$

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

comparing ith the slope-intercept form of the line equation

Thus, the slope of the line 'n' will be: 1/2

As the slopes of both lines 'm' and 'n' are the same.

Therefore, we conclude that the equation x-2y=4 represents the equation of the line 'n' if lines m and n are parallel to each other.

Prove that the triangle EDF is isosceles. Give reasons for your answer.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please have a look at the attached figure.

We are given the following things:

$\angle EDF = y$

$\text{External }\angle DFG = 90 +\dfrac{y}{2}$

Let us try to find out $\angle E$ and $\angle DFE$ . After that we will compare them.

Finding  $\angle DFE$ :

Side EG is a straight line so $\angle GFE = 180$

$\angle GFE$ is sum of internal $\angle DFE$ and external $\angle DFG$

$\angle GFE = 180 = \angle DFE + \angle DFG\\\Rightarrow 180 = \angle DFE + (90+\dfrac{y}{2})\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 180 - 90 - \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 90 - \dfrac{y}{2} ....... (1)$

Finding  $\angle E$ :

Property of external angle: External angle in a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite internal angles of a triangle.

i.e. external $\angle DFG$ = $\angle E + \angle EDF$

$\Rightarrow 90+\dfrac{y}{2} = \angle E + y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90+\dfrac{y}{2} -y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90-\dfrac{y}{2} ....... (2)$

Comparing equations (1) and (2):

It can be clearly seen that:

$\angle DFE = \angle E =90-\dfrac{y}{2}$

The two angles of $\triangle EDF$ are equal hence $\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Evaluate u + xy, if u = 18, x = 10, and y = 8. A. 188 B. 36 C. 98 D. 224

Luda [366]

If you would like to evaluate u + xy, you can do this using the following steps:

u = 18, x = 10, y = 8
u + xy = 18 + 10 * 8 = 18 + 80 = 98

The correct result would be C. 98.
