The length of the KN is 4.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know from Pythagoras theorem
In a right angle ΔLMN
Base² + perpendicular² = hypotenuse
²
From the properties of triangle we also know that altitudes are ⊥ on the sides they fall.
Hence ∠LKM = ∠NKM = 90
°
Given values-
LM=12
LK=10
Let KN be “s”
⇒LN= LK + KN
⇒LN= 10+x eq 1
Coming to the Δ LKM
⇒LK²+MK²= LM²
⇒MK²= 12²-10²
⇒MK²= 44 eq 2
Now in Δ MKN
⇒MK²+ KN²= MN²
⇒44+s²= MN² eq 3
In Δ LMN
⇒LM²+MN²= LN²
Using the values of MN² and LN² from the previous equations
⇒12² + 44+s²= (10+s)
²
⇒144+44+s²= 100+s²+20s
⇒188+s²= 100+s²+20s cancelling the common term “s²”
⇒20s= 188-100
∴ s= 4.4
Hence the value of KN is 4.4
FG = FE
3n - 4 = n + 8
2n = 12
n = 6
FG = 3(6) - 4
FG = 18 - 4
FG = 14
answer
14
A linear relationship is an equation that has a constant slope
The equation that does not represent a linear relationship is (b) y = 2x^2 + 5x
<h3>How to determine the non-linear relationship</h3>
A linear equation can take any of the following forms:
y = mx + b
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Ax + By = c
Any form different from the above forms is not a linear equation
Using the above format as a guide, the equation that does not represent a linear relationship is (b) y = 2x^2 + 5x
