Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number. Then the reciprocal is 1/x. The quotient of 25 and the number is 25/x. The problem statement tells us ...

  3 + 1/x = 25/x

Subtracting 1/x, we have ...

  3 = 24/x

  x = 24/3 = 8 . . . . . . . . multiply by x/3

The number is 8.

I don’t know how to find angle A
Cerrena [4.2K]
Angle a = 60

given that all angles of a triangle added together must equal 180
x = -20
-20+80=60
do it again for the other angle measurement
60+60+40=180

therefore, angle A is 60°

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC, find the values of x and y.
Mumz [18]

The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal, it is obtained by Pythagoras theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given are,

           From ΔABC,

                    AB= 6

                    BC= 10

                    AC = x

           From ΔDEC,

                    CD= 28

                    DE= 21

                    CE = y

Step:1

        Pythagoras theorem from  ΔABC,

                    BC^{2}=AB^{2} + AC^{2}...............(1)

       Substitute the values,

                   10^{2} = 6^{2} + AC^{2}

                  100 = 36 + AC^{2}

                   AC^{2} = 100 - 36

                           = 64

                    AC = \sqrt{64}

                    AC = 8

                  AC = x = 8

Step:2

        Pythagoras theorem for ΔDEC,

               CE^{2} = CD^{2}  + DE^{2}................(2)

       From the values,

              CE^{2} = 28^{2} + 21^{2}

             CE^{2} = 784 + 441

                     = 1225

              CE = \sqrt{1225}

              CE = 35

             CE = y = 35

Result:

         The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal.
