All three sides of a triangle are initially 5.0 long. One of the triangle's sides is oriented horizontally. The triangle is scal

ed in size without changing any of the angles. What is the new height of the triangle when the area is 0.7 of the original triangle's area

Answer:

h = 3.62

Step-by-step explanation:

First, as both triangles have the same angles we can use the relationship of areas and sides corresponding to similar triangles as follows:

relation\ between\ areas=( relation\ between\ sides)^2\\\frac{0.7A}{A}=(\frac{s}{5})^2\\s= 5\sqrt0.7= 4.18

Now we know that the new triangle has sides of 4.18. Then, as these triangles are equilateral we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height:

4.18^2=h^2+(\frac{4.18}{2})^2\\h=\sqrt (4.18^2-2.09^2)=3.62 m\\h= 3.62

Finally the height of this new triangle is 3.62 cm

Answer: 200+50m>1,250

Step-by-step explanation:

It starts with 200 so that is by itself. The m is added to the number that is changing every so often, in this case $50 a month. They need more than $1,250 so we use the greater than sign.

Geometry question on finding x.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

x =63^o

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • \text{ $\overline{MN} $ and $\overline{ML}$ are tangents .}

We know that the tangents are perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact . And here OLMN is a quadrilateral. Also we know that , the angle sum property a triangle is 360° .

<u>According</u><u> to</u><u> question</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

\implies x + 117^o + 90^o +90^o = 360^o \\\\\implies x + 297^o = 360^o \\\\\implies x = 360^o - 297^o \\\\\implies x = 63^o

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> of</u><u> x</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>6</u><u>3</u><u>°</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
