The best way to do this is to draw a picture of ΔFKL and include line segment KM that is perpendicular to FL.  This creates ΔFKM which is a 45°-45°-90° triangle and ΔLKM which is a 30°-60°-90° triangle.

Find the lengths of FM and ML.  Then, FM + ML = FL

<u>FM</u>

ΔFKM (45°-45°-90°): FK is the hypotenuse so FM = \frac{a}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{a\sqrt{2} }{2}

<u>ML</u>

ΔLKM (30°-60°-90°): from ΔFKM, we know that KM = \frac{a\sqrt{2} }{2} , so KL = \frac{a}{\sqrt{6}} = \frac{a\sqrt{6} }{6}  

<u>FM + ML = FL</u>

(\frac{3}{3})\frac{a\sqrt{2}  }{2} + \frac{a\sqrt{6}  }{6}

= \frac{3a\sqrt{2} + a\sqrt{6} }{6}

Answer:

\sqrt{2}\frac{a(\sqrt{3}+2)}{(\sqrt{3}+1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: △FKL, FK=a, m∠F=45°, m∠L=30°

To Find:

Solution: Consider the file attached.

 a perpendicular is drawn to Line FK from L, LP

 in Δ\text{FLP},

\text{KP}=\text{x}

\text{FP}=\text{a}+\text{x}  

as\text{m}\angle \text{PFL}=45^{\circ}=\text{m}\angle\text{FLP}

\text{FP}=\text{a}+\text{x}=\text{LP}

now, in Δ\text{KLP},

\text{m}\angle\text{PKL}=75^{\circ}

\text{tan}75=\frac{\text{LP}}{\text{PK}}

\text{KP}=\text{x}

\text{LP}=\text{x}+\text{a}

2+\sqrt{3}=\frac{\text{a}+\text{x}}{\text{x}}

2\text{x}+\text{x}\sqrt{3}=\text{a}+\text{x}

\text{x}=\frac{\text{a}}{(\sqrt{3}+1)}

\text{LP}=\frac{\text{a}}{(\sqrt{3}+1)}+\text{a}

\text{LP}=\frac{\text{a}(\sqrt{3}+2)}{(\sqrt{3}+1)}

now, in Δ\text{FLP}

\text{LP}=\text{FP}

using pythagoras theorem

\text{LP}^2+\text{FP}^2=\text{FL}^2

2\text{LP}^2=\text{FL}^2

\text{FL}^2=2\frac{a^2(\sqrt{3}+2)^2}{(\sqrt{3}+1)^2}

\text{FL}=\sqrt{2}\frac{a(\sqrt{3}+2)}{(\sqrt{3}+1)}

So, length of \text{FL} is \sqrt{2}\frac{a(\sqrt{3}+2)}{(\sqrt{3}+1)}

How to factor 25x^2 - 81= 0
dalvyx [7]
Your question is a difference of squares. both terms that need to be factored are squared. to solve take the square root of each put into two terms one of addition and one of subtraction.

anwser= (5x-9)(5x+9)

the reason this works is because when you foil you get
25x²-45x+45x-81 
the middle terms cancel revealing
25x²-81
