Answer:
Base = 24 cm or 10cm
Step-by-step explanation:
REMEMBER:
An isosceles triangle ABC with base BC = ‘b' & height AD = ‘h' & its equal sides =13 cm & area = 60 cm²
Using the formulas
There are 2 solutions for 
≈ 
Less complex:
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h = 60
=> h = 120/b
In right triangle ABD
13² = h² + b² /4 ( by Pythagoras law)
=>169 = 120²/b² + b²/4
=>676 b² = 57600 + b^4
=> b^4 - 676 b² + 57600 = 0
=> b² = 676 +- √(676² - 4*57600) / 2
=> b²= 676 +- √(226576) /2
=> b² = (676 +- 476 )/2
=> b² = 1152/2 , 200 /2
=> b² = 576 , 100
=> b = 24, 10
So, Base = 24 cm or 10cm
Answer:
6.68, 13.37, 14.95
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the legs is twice as long as the other.
b = 2a
The perimeter is 35.
35 = a + b + c
The triangle is a right triangle.
c² = a² + b²
Three equations, three variables. Start by plugging the first equation into the second and solving for c.
35 = a + 2a + c
c = 35 − 3a
Now plug this and the first equation into the Pythagorean theorem:
(35 − 3a)² = a² + (2a)²
1225 − 210a + 9a² = a² + 4a²
1225 − 210a + 4a² = 0
Solve with quadratic formula:
a = [ -(-210) ± √((-210)² − 4(4)(1225)) ] / 2(4)
a = (210 ± √24500) / 8
a ≈ 6.68 or 45.82
Since the perimeter is 35, a = 6.68. Therefore, the other sides are:
b ≈ 13.37
c ≈ 14.95
Answer:
x=59/5 or x=11.8 depends on which one you want to do both are true
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with what you are given
angle 4= 5x+6 and angle 3=65 because lines m and n are both parallel angle4=angle3 in other words 5x+6=65
what you want to do is get x by itself.
1. Subtract 6 from both sides
5x+6-6=65-6
5x=59
2. Divide both sides by 5
5x/5=59/5
x=59/5
3. Check to see if you can simplify the fraction and if you teacher wants it in decimals or exact fraction.
x=59/5 or x=11.8 they are the same just ones a decimal the other is left as a fraction
Answer:
12/1 times 1/8 = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiply 12 by 1 to get 12, then divide 12 by 8 to get 1.5
