Answer:

TA = 6 units

GT = 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle G is common to both triangles, so that's a congruent angle.

Since RT is parallel to EA,

Angle R = Angle E

And

Angle T = Angle A

When two triangles have the same distribution of angles, they are similar (by AAA).

Therefore GRT and GEA are similar

GE/GR = GA/GT

8/5 = 16/(16-x)

16-x = 16 × 5/8

16 - x = 10

x = 16 - 10

x = 6

GT = 16 - x = 16 - 6 = 10

What is the polynomial function of lowest degree with rational real coefficients, and roots -3 and square root of 6?
telo118 [61]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  f(x) = x³ +3x² -6x -18

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for there to be a root of √6, there must be a factor of (x-√6). In order for there to be rational coefficients, there needs to be another factor of (x+√6) in the minimal polynomial. Then the minimal polynomial with the required roots is ...

  f(x) = (x +3)(x -√6)(x +√6) = (x +3)(x² -6)

  f(x) = x³ +3x² -6x -18
