Answer:
4 √6
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a few right triangles. We know that a²+b²=c², with c being the side opposite the right angle. Representing the side without a value as z, we have:
m²+z² = (8+4)² = 12²
4²+n²=z²
8²+n²=m²
We have 3 equations with 3 unknown variables, so this should be solvable. One way to find a solution is to put everything in terms of m and go from there. First, we can take n out of the equations entirely, removing one variable. We can do this by solving for it in terms of z and plugging that into the third equation, removing a variable as well as an equation.
4²+n²=z²
subtract 4²=16 from both sides
z²-16 = n²
plug that into the third equation
64 + z² - 16 = m²
48 + z² = m²
subtract 48 from both sides to solve for z²
z² = m² - 48
plug that into the first equation
m² + m² - 48 = 144
2m² - 48 = 144
add 48 to both sides to isolate the m² and its coefficient
192 = 2m²
divide both sides by 2 to isolate the m²
96 = m²
square root both sides to solve for m
√96 = m
we know that 96 = 16 * 6, and 16 = 4², so
m = √96 = √(4²*6) = 4 √6
Answer:
-x + 18
Step-by-step explanation:
just add 16 and 2. this is the furthest it can be simplified
Answer:
The value of x is 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles have a sum of 90°, therefore the equation to solve for x is:
∠1+∠2=90°
60°+5(x-1)°=90°
5(x-1)=30°
x-1=6
x=7
So the value of x is 7
If you're trying to find the missing side of the "triangle" (the distance from the house to where the ladder touches the ground), you would use the pythagorean theorem, a²+b²=c². (c is always hypotenuse)
a²+b²=c²
12²+b²=15²
144+b²=225
b²=81
√b²=√81
b=9
