The area of a triangle is 45cm2 and the height is 9 cm. What is the length of the base?

1 answer:

5 0

Formula
A=bh divides by 2

SUBSTITUTE
45=b9 divided by 2

MULTIPLY/DIVIDE

You can either divide by 2 or multiply by 1/2 (gets the same answer)
9 x 1/2 = 4.5

DIVIDE
45 divides by 4.5 = 10

CHECK

A= 10 x 9 divided by 2 or multiply by 1/2 (same answer) = 45

Thus, the answer is 10.
I hope this helped you understand the process!

The sum of the heights of two brothers is 10 feet, 4 inches. The difference between their heights is 10 inches. How tall is the

Leona [35]

Answer:

4.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the height of the taller brother be x

And, the height of the shorter brother be y

Now according to the question

x + y = 10.33

x - y = 0.833

Now solve these two equations

2x = 11.666

x = 5.833

y = 10.33 - 5.83

= 4.5 ft

Answer:

(a)2(89x+84)

(b) $2(89x+84-x^2\pi)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the larger rectangular field are:

Length=5x + 12; Width = 9x + 14.

The dimensions of the smaller rectangular soccer field are:

Length=5x; Width = 9x.

(a)Area of the part of the field that is outside the soccer field

=Area of the larger rectangular field - Area of the Soccer Field

=(5x+12)(9x+14)-5x(9x)

=(5x)(9x)+70x+108x+168-5x(9x)

=178x+168

=2(89x+84)

(b)Radius of the Semicircular Fountain =2x

From Part (a),

Area of the larger rectangular field - Area of the Soccer Field=178x+168

Area of the Semicircular Fountain = $\dfrac{\pi r^2}{2} =\dfrac{\pi (2x)^2}{2} =\dfrac{4x^2\pi}{2} =2x^2\pi$

Area of the Field that does not include the soccer field or the fountain.

=Area of the larger rectangular field - Area of the Soccer Field-Area of the Semicircular Fountain

$=178x+168-2x^2\pi\\=2(89x+84-x^2\pi)$
