Nady [450]3 years ago

Answer:

Side a = 35ft

Side b = 35ft

Side c = 20ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a triangle = Side a + Side b + Side c

In an isosceles triangle, 2 sides are equal to each other.

So, Side a = Side b

In the question, we are told that:

The two equal sides are each 5 ft less than twice the length of the third side.

Hence,

a = 2c - 5

b = 2c - 5

P = 90ft

P = a + b + c

90 = 2c - 5 + 2c - 5 + c

Collect like terms

90 = 5c - 10

90 + 10 = 5c

100 = 5c

c = 100/5

c = 20

The length of the third side = 20ft

a = 2c - 5

= 2 × 20 - 5

= 40 - 5

= 35 ft

b =2c - 5

= 2 × 20 - 5

= 40 - 5

= 35 ft

Therefore,

Side a = 35ft

Side b = 35ft

Side c = 20ft

A 13 ft ladder is resting on a wall. The angle the ladder makes with the floor is 45 degrees. How high off the ground is the top
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer: 9.19 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.  

Sin α = opposite side / hypotenuse  

Where α is the angle of elevation of the ladder to the ground, the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle (in this case is the length of the ladder), and the opposite side (x) is distance between the top of the ladder and the ground.

Replacing with the values given:  

Sin 45 = x/ 13

Solving for x  

sin45 (13) =x  

x= 9.19 ft

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

<u>s=150m</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope intercept form, you can come p with the equation, <u>s=150m</u> where 150 is the savings per month and you were not given a starting point which would be y.

y=mx+b

<u>s=150m</u>

Trapezoid WKLX has vertices W(2, −3), K(4, −3), L(5, −2) , and X(1, −2) . Trapezoid WKLX ​ is translated 4 units right and 3 uni

W(2, −3),  
K(4, −3),
L(5, −2) ,
X(1, −2) 

TRANSLATED 4 UNITS RIGHT and 3 UNITS DOWN to produce W'K'L'X

4 units right means the x coordinate is affected. Since the moving to the right, we add 4 to the x values of each vertice.

W = 2 + 4 = 6
K = 4 + 4 = 8
L = 5 + 4 = 9
X = 1 + 4 = 5

3 units down means the y axis is affected. We add 3 to the value of y but keep the negative sign.
W = -3 + -3 = -6
K = -3 + -3 = -6
L = -2 + -3 = -5
X = -2 + -3 = -5

The correct answer is: </span><span>W′(6, −6), K′(8, −6), L′(9, −5) , and X′(5, −5)</span>
