Given: MNOK is a trapezoid, MN=OK, m∠M=60°, NK ⊥ MN , MK=16cm Find: The midsegment of MNOK

Mathematics

Sergeu [11.5K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Consider right triangle MNK. In this triangle angle N is right and m∠M=60°, then m∠K=30°. Thus, this triangle is special 30°-60°-90° right triangle with legs MN and NK and hypotenuse MK=16 cm. The leg MN is opposite to the angle with measure of 30°, then this leg is half of the hypotenuse, MN=8 cm.

2. Consider right triangle MNH, where NH is the height of trapezoid drawn from the point N. In this triangle m∠M=60°, angle H is right, then m∠N=30°. Similarly, the leg MH is half of the hypotenuse MN, MH=4 cm.

3. Trapezoid MNOK is isosceles, because MN=OK=8 cm. This means that NO=MK-2MH=16-8=8 cm.

4. The midsegment of the trapezoid is

\dfrac{MK+NO}{2}=\dfrac{16+8}{2}=12\ cm.

The perimeter of a pool is 96 feet. If the length of the pool is 3 times its width, what is the width of the pool? Labeling the
k0ka [10]

Answer:

12 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the area of the pool be Length×width

There will be 2lengths and 2widths as well so the perimeter of the pool will be the addition of all the sides of the pool i.e 2L + 2W = 96... (1)

And since the length of the pool is 3 times its width, we have

L = 3W... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1 to get the width 'W'

2(3W) + 2W = 96

6W + 2W = 96

8W = 96

W = 96/8

W = 12feets

The width of the pool is 12feets

6 &lt; 3x + 9 ≤ 18<br><br><br> please help me I will mark brainiest answer thanks
Olin [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6< 3x + 9

-3x < 9-6

-3x < 3 .( -1 )                                            

3x > 3                          

x > 3/3

x > 3

3x + 9 ≤ 18

3x ≤ 18-9

3x ≤ 9

x ≤ 9/3

x ≤  3

S = {XeIR/ 3 > x  ≤ 3 }

Not sure if the solution looks like this
