Answer:

The correct option is 3. The length of XC is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that triangle ABC and triangle XYC are similar.

According to the properties of similar triangles, then corresponding sides of similar triangles are congruent.

In triangle ABC and triangle XYC,

\frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{BC}{YC}=\frac{AC}{XC}

Let the length of XC be x.

From the below figure it is notices that

AC=AX+XC=18+x

BC=BY+YC=6+10=16

\frac{16}{10}=\frac{18+x}{x}

16x=180+10x

6x=180

x=30

Therefore correct option is 3. The length of XC is 30.

What is 1/4 X 5/16 equal
VashaNatasha [74]
\frac{1}{4} x \frac{5}{16}

   1 x 5 = 5 
16 x 4 = 64  

\frac{5}{64}  is the answer 

In simplest form the answer would be \frac{5}{64} because it cant be divided any farther.

Anybody know the correct answer?
earnstyle [38]

Since \csc^2{x}=\frac{1}{\sin^2{x}} and \cot^2{x}=\frac{\cos^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}}, we can rewrite the right side of the equation as

\frac{1}{\sin^2{x}}-\frac{\cos^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}} =\frac{1-\cos^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}}

Using the identity \sin^2{x}+\cos^2{x}=1, we can subtract \cos^2{x} from either side to obtain the identity \sin^2{x}=1-\cos^2{x}

substituting that into our previous expression, the right side of our equation simply becomes

\frac{\sin^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}}=1

We can now write our whole equation as

3\tan^2{x}-2=1

Adding 2 to both sides:

3\tan^2{x}=3

dividing both sides by 3:

\tan^2{x}=1

\tan{x}=\pm1

When 0 ≤ x ≤ π, tan x can only be equal to 1 when sin x = cos x, which happens at x = π/4, and it can only be equal to -1 when -sin x = cos x, which happens at x = 3π/4
