Area of the rectangle: 112

Step-by-step explanation:

Picture is missing: find it in attachment.

The area of a triangle is given by

A=\frac{1}{2}bh

where

b is the length of the base

h is the height

For triangle ABE, we know that

A = 40 (area)

h = 8 (height)

So we can find the length of the base AE:

AE=b=\frac{2A}{h}=\frac{2(40)}{8}=10

Now we observe that the base of the rectangle, AD, is the sum of AE and DE, therefore:

AD=AE+DE=10+4=14

We also know the height of the rectangle AB is 8, and that the area of a rectangle is

A=bh

where b is the base and h the height. Therefore, the area of this rectangle is

A=bh=(AD)(AB)=(14)(8)=112

What is the distance from the origin to point A graphed on the complex plane below?
ExtremeBDS [4]
Distance between two points is
Root of X2 - X1 squared + Y2 - Y1 squared
So here X2 is 0 X1 is 0 as the origin is 0,0
Root of Y2-Y1 squared is what we are left with
Root of -2- -3 squared
Root of 1 squared
Root of 1
Which is 1
Distance is 1

PLEASE HELP ASAP<br><br> Find the value of x. Then, find the measure of each angle.
andriy [413]

Answer:

x = 16°

H = 46°

I = 55°

J = 39°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the whole figure is 180°

Deduct 180 by the numbers mentioned above in order to find x.

180 - 2 - 9 - 9 = 160

3x + 4x + 3x = 10x

10 x = 160

x = 160 ÷ 10 = 16

Since we know what x is, we can find all the angles in the figure.

Angle at H = 3 x 16 - 2 = 46°

Angle at I = 4 x 16 - 9 = 55°

Angle at J = 3 x 16 - 9 = 39°
