Answer:
b = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A =
bh ( b is the base and h the height )
Here h = 3x + 15 and A = 15x + 75, thus
× b × (3x + 15) = 15x + 75
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
b(3x + 15) = 30x + 150
Divide both sides by (3x + 15)
b =
← factor numerator and denominator
=
← cancel the factor (x + 5) on numerator/denominator
= ![\frac{30}{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B30%7D%7B3%7D)
= 10
Given :
A boat is being pulled into a dock with a rope attached to the boat at water level. When the boat is 12 feet from the dock, the length of the rope form the boat to the dock is 3 feet longer than twice the height of the dock above the water.
To Find :
The height of the dock.
Solution :
This will make a right angle triangle as given in link below .
Now , applying Pythagoras theorem :
![(2h+3)^2=h^2+12^2\\\\4h^2+9h+9=h^2+144\\\\h^2+4h-45=0\\\\(h-5)(h+9)=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%282h%2B3%29%5E2%3Dh%5E2%2B12%5E2%5C%5C%5C%5C4h%5E2%2B9h%2B9%3Dh%5E2%2B144%5C%5C%5C%5Ch%5E2%2B4h-45%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%28h-5%29%28h%2B9%29%3D0)
Now , h = 5 or h = -9 .
Now , height cannot be negative .
So , height of the dock is 5 ft .
Hence , this is the required solution .
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation is y = mx + c...
The given equation is 2x + y = 6
Firstly, move everything on the left except the y to the right.i.e.
y = 6 - 2x
Secondly, rearrange the values on the right to look just like the general equation.
y = -2x + 6
The equation is now in proper general form because it matches the format laid down.
Answer: It is not possible that two triangles that are similar and not congruent in spherical geometry.
Step-by-step explanation:
For instance, taking a circle on the sphere whose diameter is equal to the diameter of the sphere and inside is an equilateral triangle, because the sphere is perfect, if we draw a circle (longitudinal or latitudinal lines) to form a circle encompassing an equally shaped triangle at different points of the sphere will definately yield equal size.
in other words, triangles formed in a sphere must be congruent and also similar meaning having the same shape and must definately have the same size.
Therefore, it is not possible for two triangles in a sphere that are similar but not congruent.
Two triangles in sphere that are similar must be congruent.
