Answer:

Therefore,

∴ x = 32 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Consider a Δ ABC with P and Q are the Mid points of AB and AC

AP = BP

AQ = CQ

PQ = 48

BC = 3x

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

Mid Point Theorem :

The Midpoint Theorem states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

i.e Here by Mid Point Theorem we will have

PQ=\frac{1}{2}BC\\

Substituting the values we get

\therefore 48 =\frac{1}{2}\times 3x\\ \\\therefore 48\times 2 =3x\\\\\therefore x =\frac{96}{3}\\\\\therefore x =32\ units

∴ x = 32 units

Answer:

11.66 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

-This a Pythagorean Theorem problem

-Let X be the length of the incline plane.

#X can be found using the Pythagorean theorem  identity:

b^2+h^2=H^2\\\\6^2+10^2=X^2\\\\X^2=136\\\\X=\sqrt{136}\\\\=11.66\ ft

Hence, the length of the incline is 11.66 ft
