First we need to define our conditions. Since the angles are complimentary, the sum of the angles must be equal to 90 degrees.

let x = first angle
y = second angle

x + y = 90

from the second condition in the problem 

x + y =72 + x -y
solving for x

x= 54

therefore the shorter side is 90 - 54 = y

y = 36 degree, the shorter side

What is the square of one half?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

One-half squared is one-fourth.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide fractions, you multiply the first term by the reciprocal of the second term. In this example, instead of multiplying 1/2 by 1/4, you now multiply 1/2 by 4. Therefore, one half is equal to 2 fourths.

Interoperate your solution in the context of the problem.<br> f(10)=1.75r+9
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Simplifying

f(r) = 5 + 1.75r

Multiply f * r

fr = 5 + 1.75r

Solving

fr = 5 + 1.75r

Solving for variable 'f'.

Move all terms containing f to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by 'r'.

f = 5r-1 + 1.75

Simplifying

f = 5r-1 + 1.75

Reorder the terms:

f = 1.75 + 5r-1

Step-by-step explanation:

tada i think
