4 0

Answer:

  • a) Plots are similar
  • b) x= 5577 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Refer to attached</em>

<h3>Question</h3>
  • a) Are the plots of land similar?  
  • b) Find to the exact value of x and rounded to the nearest tenth?
<h3>Solution</h3>

The small triangle have missing angle of 180° - (52° + 58°) = 70°

This is indicating both triangles have same 3 angle measures.

Since all angles are same, the triangles are similar.

<u>Corresponding sides, against corresponding angles are:</u>

  • 6180 and 8240
  • x and 7436

<u>As per property of similarity, the ratio of corresponding sides is same</u>

  • 6180/8240 = x/7436
  • x = 6180*7436/8240
  • x = 5577 feet

X^2 + x^2=6^2 what is x​
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

x = ±3 sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + x^2=6^2

Combine like terms

2x^2 = 6^2

Divide each side by 2

x^2 = * 6^2/2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) =± sqrt(  6^2/2)

Remember that sqrt(a/b) = ±sqrt(a ) /sqrt(b)

x = ±sqrt(6^2)/sqrt(2)

x = ±6 /sqrt(2)

We do not leave square roots in the denominator, so we multiply the top and bottom by sqrt(2)

x = ±6 /sqrt(2) * sqrt(2)/ sqrt(2)

x = ±6 *sqrt(2) /( sqrt(2)*sqrt(2))

x =  ±6 sqrt(2) /(2)

x = ±3 sqrt(2)

Find the gradient and the intercept shown by the straight line 2x + 3y = 6 ​
sveta [45]

Answer:

\sf gradient =\dfrac{-2}{3}\\\\ y -intercept = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Equation of the line in slope intercept form:</h2>

      \sf \boxed{\bf y = mx +b}

Here m is the slope or gradient and b is the y-intercept.

Write the given equation in slope-intercept form.

  2x + 3y = 6

          3y = -2x + 6

            \sf y =\dfrac{-2}{3}x +\dfrac{6}{3}\\\\     y = \dfrac{-2}{3}x + 2

\sf gradient =\dfrac{-2}{3}\\\\ y -intercept = 2
