Answer:

D. taphrogenic

Explanation:

The plate divergence is an example of taphrogenic process. The taphrogenic process is a process in which the Earth's crust is getting stretched because of the tectonic activities, opening up gaps in the crust. Some of the formation we have because of this process are the divergent plate boundaries, rifts, and trenches. The plate divergence occurs because of the strong activity of the convection currents in the mantle layer. They manage to push magma through the crust, and as the magma is getting out it pushes the old crust away, while creating new crust in meantime.

ΔABC and ΔXYZ are similar triangles. If BC = x + 5, AC = x + 1, YZ = x + 3, and XZ = x + 2, find the value of x.
SpyIntel [72]
The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "Undefined."

AB = XY
BC = YZ
CA = ZY

BC = x + 5
AC = x + 1
YZ = x + 3
XZ = x + 2

x + 5 = x + 3

X = undefined.

I need to find the perimeter of a triangle with the left and right angles being 45 and the top angle being 90. The bisector is 7
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The perimeter of the triangle is 2+√2

Explanation:

Since one of the angles of the triangle is 90°, the triangle in question is a right angled triangle.

Since two angles of the triangle are also equal, then two of the its sides will be equal.

Let the opposite and the adjacent sides of the triangle be 1. To get the hypotenuse side, we will apply the Pythagoras theorem which States;

Hypotenuse² = Adjacent²+opposite²

Hyp² = 1²+1²

Hyp = √1²+1²

Hyp = √2

The third side of the triangle is √2.

The perimeter of the triangle will be the sum of all its sides i.e 1+1+√2

= 2+√2

The perimeter of the triangle will be 2+√2
