Answer:
24,19
Step-by-step explanation:
24+19=43
24-19=5
1. You have that:
- The<span> lengths of the bases are (6x-1) units and 3 units.
- The midsegment has a length of (5x-3) units.
2. To solve this exercise, you must apply the formula for calculate the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid, which is shown below:
Midsegment=Base1+Base2/2
As you can see, the midsegment is half the sum of the bases of the trapezoid.
3. When you substitute the values, you obtain:
(5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2
4. Now, you can solve the problem by clearing the "x":
</span>
(5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2
2(5x-3)=6x-1+3
10x-6=6x+2
10x-6x=2+6
4x=8
x=8/4
x=2
Pythagorean Theorem: A^2 + B^2 = C^2
<span>We know A and C, let's find B by doing it backwards </span>
<span>C^2 - A^2 = B^2 </span>
<span>4^2 - 7 (square root of 7 squared is just 7) = B^2 </span>
<span>16 - 7 = B^2 </span>
<span>9 = B^2 </span>
A^2 = 4.0^2 + 3.7^3 - 2*4*3.7 cos 334
= 4.865
a = 2.2 to nearest tenth.
