Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find out the length of the third side of the triangle. (The right side of the Y-axis) We use the pythagorean theorem to find it. 4²+2² = 20 find the square root of 20 √20 = ~4.5 so with this in mind, lets find the length of the whole triangle. 8²+4²=80 then √80 = ~9 with this, we can say that since the length of one of the legs has increased by 2, and so has the length of the base, and also the length of the hypotenuse, the scale factor must be 2.

laiz [17]

Answer:

89,709

Step-by-step explanation:

∡Z= 54°

tan 54 = XY / 361

XY = 361 · tan 54°

XY = 497

A = 1/2 (361) (497)

What is -5/12 - 4/14 + 6/34

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

4 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at this expression as given in the original problem; the numbers, properly typewritten, are -5 1/2, - 4 1/4, + 6 3/4.

We want to combine these three numbers into one.

To do this, we need the LCD; it is 4.

Thus, -5 1/2 is rewritten as -5 2/4.

Then we have

-5 2/4 - 4 1/4 + 6 3/4 = -5 -4 + 6 + 2/4 + 1/4 + 3/4.

This simplifies to: +3 + 6/4, or 3 + 1 + 2/4, or

4 1/2
