Answer:
CA ≈ 3.1 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan40° =
=
=
( multiply both sides by CA )
CA × tan40° = 2.6 ( divide both sides by tan40° )
CA =
≈ 3.1 ft ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
foil it out...
4x^2 + 12x - 20x - 60

or 4(
)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. BC is 1+3=4 (units)
2. AD is 3+5= 8 (units)
3. Draw the altitude CH from point C, as shown in the figure.
4. Then triangle CHD is a right triangle, with hypothenuse CD, and sides HD and CH.
5.



6. AB=CD=4.47 because the trapezoid is isosceles.
7. P= BC+AD+AB+CD=4+8+4.47+4.47=20.9 (units)
