base = 2 m; height = 6 m
Step-by-step explanation:
I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.
Please have a look at the attached photo.
My answer:
Given the information:
- base of 8 meters
- height of 6 meters
- top side length of 4 meters.
=> the height of one of the triangles equal to the the height of the trapezoid = 6 meters
=> the base of the triangles:
= (the base of the trapezoid - the top side length) / 2
= (8-4)/2
= 2
So the base and height of one of the triangles : base = 2 m; height = 6 m
Hope it will find you well.
The complete question is as follows.
An isosceles trapezoid was broken into a rectangle and two triangles. What arethe base and height of one of the triangles?
a) base = 8m; height = 6m
b) base = 6m; height = 4m
c) base = 2m; height = 6m
d) base = 4m; height = 2m
Answer: c) base = 2; height = 6
Step-by-step explanation: According to the image, a rectangle with the top measuring 4m is created. So, its base is also 4.
The trapezoid's base is 8, so:
4 + x + x = 8
2x = 4
x = 2
Each triangle has base = 2.
The height of the trapezoid is 6, so, the height of the triangle is also 6.
One of the triangle has base = 2 m and height = 6 m

Any relation is x and y is said to be a Direct variation if one is a constant multiplier of the other .In other words we can say : when one variable changes the other changes in proportion to the first.
The Direct variation equation are of the type y=k.x
Here k is known as constant of proportionality .It has a fixed value.
The given equation is y=
If we compare this equation with y=k.x
Then k=
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's arrange the numbers from least to greatest:
20, 25, 27, 28, 31, 32, 32, 38, 40, 40, 42, 48
The median is the "middle" number when arranged from least to greatest.
There are 12 numbers, so the middle number would be "average" of 6th and 7th terms.
6th term = 32
7th term = 32
Average = (32+32)/2 = 32
Hence, median = 32
Absolute deviation of 5 minutes means 5 minutes less or greater than the median, 32.
So, 32 - 5 = 27 & 32 + 5 = 37
Hence
