PLEASE HELP ME!! 1.02: Triangle Similarity 1 What is the value of X?

Mathematics
1 answer:
hichkok12 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<h2>x = 28</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔARP and ΔCRD are similar. Therefore the sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{AR}{CR}=\dfrac{PR}{DR}

We have:

AR = 10 + x

CR = x

PR = 15 + 42 = 57

DR = 42

Substitute:

\dfrac{10+x}{x}=\dfrac{57}{42}           <em>cross multiply</em>

42(10+x)=57x             <em>use distributive property</em>

(42)(10)+(42)(x)=57x

420+42x=57x         <em>subtract 42x from both sides</em>

420=15x            <em>divide both sides by 15</em>

x=28

Country ​A, Country​ B, and Country C won a total of 130 medals. Country B won 10 more medals than Country C. Country A won 38 m
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Country ​A = 84

Country​ B = 28

Country C = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Country ​A, Country​ B, and Country C won a total of 130 medals;

A + B + C = 130 ......1

Country B won 10 more medals than Country C;

B = C + 10 .......2

Country A won 38 more medals than the total amount won by the other two;

A = B + C + 38 ........3

Substituting equation 3 to 1;

(B+C+38) + B+C = 130

2B + 2C + 38 = 130 .......4

Substituting equation 2 into 4;

2(C+10) + 2C + 38 = 130

4C + 58 = 130

4C = 130-58 = 72

C = 72/4 = 18

B = C + 10 = 18 + 10 = 28

A = B + C + 38 = 18 + 28 + 38 = 84

Country ​A = 84

Country​ B = 28

Country C = 18

Simplify 23 + 6c + 8d - 7d - 6
gladu [14]
First, identify the terms.
23
+6c
+8d
-7d
-6
Now combine like terms. Like terms are terms with the same variable (i.e. 1x and 3x)
23 and -6
6c
8d and -7d
Now combine!
23 - 6 = 17
6c = 6c
8d - 7d = 1d
So the answer is 17 + 6c + 1d

11. The slope of a line is 1/5. Label the two right
daser333 [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the slope is 1/5, we can interpret this as rise/run = 1/5.  We could (if we wished to do so) find the hypotenuse by using the Pythagorean Theorem:

hypo = +sqrt( 1^2 + 5^2)

In this case we dilate the triangle defined by the slope 1/5:  

2/10,        1/10/(1/2),           10/50,        etc.,       all represent right triangles whose hypotenuses lie on the same line (the line with slope 1/5).
