Answer:
The length of BC is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
When we construct a triangle with the data, we will end up a isosceles triangle.
In a isosceles triangle , we know that tow angles and two sides are equal
The questions states that
Then sides AC and AB are also equal
On equation their values
2X - 8 = X+9
2X = X + 9 +8
2X = X + 17
2X - X = 17
X = 17
The length of BC = X = 17
Answers:
B = 50
a = 10.9
c = 17.0
================================================
Explanation:
This is a right triangle, so the acute angles are complementary, meaning they add to 90
B+40 = 90
B+40-40 = 90-40
B = 50
Also, because this is a right triangle, we can use trig ratios to compute the missing sides
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(40) = a/13
a = 13*tan(40)
a = 10.908
a = 10.9
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = 13/c
c*cos(40) = 13
c = 13/cos(40)
c = 17.0
note: make sure your calculator is in degree mode
The answer is 25 because
5*5=25

- [Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
We have a right triangle. We can use PT to solve for the missing side length.
<u>Step 2: Identify Variables</u>
Leg <em>a</em> = 5
Leg <em>b </em>= <em>x</em>
Hypotenuse <em>c</em> = √72
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute [PT]: 5² + x² = (√72)²
- Exponents: 25 + x² = 72
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: x² = 47
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = √47
Around 10.63 because 400/37.61=10.63
