Answer:

The direct distance from Sid´s house to school is 8.5 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have to use a geometric law the law of Pythagoras, this could give calculate us the hypotenuse of a triangule having to known sides, this is:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

Now we can replace the side a=3 miles and b=8 miles, this is:

3^{2} +8^{2} =c^{2}

Having this we can clear the c, and have the answer:

c=\sqrt{9+64} \\c=\sqrt{73} \\c=8.5

So the direct distance from Sid´s house to school is 8.5 miles.

Need help with two questions please
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Question 1

since triangles are similar

angle B = angle D

8x + 16 = 120

x = 13

Question 2

Ttiangles are similar

therefore, sides are in ratio

AB ÷ XY = BC ÷ YZ = AC ÷ XZ

substituting all values we get

BC = 22

BC = 22AC = 16

If g(x) = x ² + 2x -8, evaluate f(-2)​
Doss [256]

Answer: -8

Explanation: If g(x) = x² + 2x - 8, then g(-2) = (-2)² + 2(-2) - 8

which simplifies to 4 + (-4) - 8 or 0 - 8 which is -8.

Remember to always use parentheses when

substituting your given value in for <em>x</em>.
