On a right triangle, to find one missing side you can use this equation
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a and b are the sides next to the right angle, and c is the hypotenuse (side not connected to right angle).
You first need to find the length of the dotted line before finding x. This is because to be able to use the above formula, you have to know the length of two out of three of the sides.
To solve the length of the dotted line, note that it also makes a triangle with the 5 unit line and the 5 √5 unit line. You can plug these numbers into the formula.
(5)^2+b^2=(5 √5)^2
25+b^2=125
b^2=100
b=10
Now that you know the length of the dotted line is 10 units, you can now solve for x
(20)^2+(10)^2=x^2
400+100=x^2
500=x^2
x= √500, which equals 22.361
Answer:3 & 4
Step-by-step explanation: those are the two with multiplication/division
Y-4X =3 ; 2x-3y=21
Y= 3+ 4x
2x -3( 3+4x)= 21
2x- 9- 12x= 21
-10x -9= 21
-10x -9+9= 21+9
-10x = 30
X= 30/-10= -3
Y= 3+4x = 3+ 4* (-3)= 3-12= -9
The 13 stripes alternate red and white: 7 red and 6 white.
Each of 13 stripes is (39 in. / 13) = 3 in. wide.
4 of the 7 red stripes are 39 in. long. The other 3 are 65 in. long.
The total area (l*w) of the flag is (65 in.)*(39 in.)=2535 sq. in.
The red stripes make up an area (l*w) that is:
4*(area of short stripes) + 3*(area of long stripes)
Red area is 4*(39*3) + 3*(65*3) = 1053 sq in.
The fraction of the flag that is red is:
1053 sq. in. / 2535 sq. in.
