Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Perimeter of triangle= 72 units
Measure of one of the side= x units
Measure of second side = 3x units
We know the perimeter of triangle is equal to sum of all sides.
Now, finding the possible value of x
forming an inequality to determine the value of x
Remember triangle has three sides, however, measure of only two sides are given.
⇒ 
⇒ 
Dividing both side by 4
⇒ 
∴ The inequality to represents all possible values of x is
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The composition of transformations has you dilate the line by a factor of 1/2, then by a factor of 3. Then the line is rotated about the origin.
The scale factor of the result will be the product of the dilation factors:
(3)(1/2) = 3/2
The scale factor of the transformation is 3/2.
<h3>Answer:
122 degrees</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
Angle BAC can be shortened to "angle A" since the letter A is in the middle.
Angle BCA can be shortened to "angle C" for similar reasoning.
We're told that angles A and C are base angles. For any isosceles triangle, the base angles are congruent
-----------
Let's use this fact to solve for x.
angle A = angle C
7x+1 = 5x+9
7x-5x = 9-1
2x = 8
x = 8/2
x = 4
Once we know what x is, we can find each base angle
- angle A = 7x+1 = 7*4+1 = 28+1 = 29
- angle C = 5x+9 = 5*4+9 = 20+9 = 29
Both angles A and C are 29 degrees each, so this confirms we have the correct x value.
-----------
The last step is to use the fact that all three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees. This will help us find angle B, which is the vertex angle.
A+B+C = 180
29+B+29 = 180
B+58 = 180
B = 180-58
B = 122
The vertex angle is 122 degrees.
So we can say either angle B = 122, or we could say angle ABC = 122
"angle ABC" is the same as "angle CBA".
