Answer:

The answer is b = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle= 1/2 × b × h

A = 21, h = 7, b = ?

21 = 1/2 × b × 7 (multiplying through)

21 = 7b/2

Cross multiply

2 × 21 = 7b

42 = 7b

b = 42/7

b = 6

Answer:

b = 6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Given the area = 21ft^2

Height = 7ft

Base = ?

Using the above formula

21 = 1/2 x b x 7

21 = 7b/2

Cross multiply

7b = 21 x 2

7b = 42

Divide both sides by 7

7b/7 = 42/7

b = 6ft

The length of the base is 6ft

Using the segment addition postulate, which is true? A number line going from negative 9 to positive 9. A closed circle appears
MArishka [77]

Answer:

  BC + CD = BD

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment addition postulate tells you that when a segment is divided into two parts, the sum of the lengths of the first part of the divided segment and the second part of the divided segment will be equal to the length of the whole segment.

If point C divides segment BD into BC and CD, then the sum of those two segments will match the whole.
