The correct answer would be B E'F' and EF are equal in length.
Answer:
60 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
For each point just divide the miles by the hour
120/2 = 60 mph
180/3 = 60 mph
240/4 = 60 mph
we can always find the slope of any line by simply using two points on the line, say let's use (3,4) and (-1,2)
Break the mile in to 6 pieces and run 5 parts of the mile
In a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle the side opposite the hypotenuse is 1/2 the hypotenuse and which will be the shorter side. Read this over a couple of times till you realize that (x + 12)/2 is the shortest side.
[(x + 12) / 2]^2 + x^2 = (x + 12)^2 subtract [(x + 12)/2]^2 from both sides.
x^2 = (x +12)^2 - [ (x +12)/2]^2
x^2 = (x + 12)^2 [ 1 - (1/2)^2] You were given this as a question in school? It seems awfully hard.
x^2 = (x + 12)^2 [3/4]
4x^2 = 3*(x^2 + 24x + 144)
4x^2 = 3x^2 + 72x + 432
x^2 - 72x - 432 = 0 This is a quadratic, do you know what they are?
The solution to this comes to x = 77.56
I don't think I made a mistake, but it is sure possible.Check the numbers and my method.
