Answer:

x must be 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area formula for a trapezoid is

A = (average of base lengths)(width)

Here we have

                                                                   17 cm + x

      (average of base lengths) = 11 cm = ----------------

                                                                           2

So 2(11 cm) = 17 cm + x, or

      22 cm = 17 cm + x

Then x must be 5.

How would you solve a problem like this
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

ΔGJH ≅ ΔEKF

HL: GH and EF

SAS: FK and JH (or GH and EF)

ASA: ∠JGH and ∠FEK (or ∠EFK and ∠JHG)

ΔGFJ ≅ ΔEKH

SSS: KH and FJ

SAS: ∠KEH and ∠FGJ

Step-by-step explanation:

List whatever angles/sides need to be congruent for the two triangles to be congruent.

Prove ΔGJH ≅ ΔEKF using....

- HL (Hypotenuse + Leg)

           We already have two legs that are congruent (EK and GJ), so we just need the hypotenuses (GH and EF) to be equal.

- SAS (Side + Angle + Side)

         1 pair of sides (EK and JG) are equal, and m∠EKF = m∠GJH. So we need one more side. You can either use FK and JH or GH and EF.

- ASA (Angle + Side + Angle)

         1 pair of angles (∠EKF and ∠GJH) are already given as equal, and 1 pair of sides (EK and GJ) are equal. We just need one more pair of angles. So either ∠JGH and ∠FEK or ∠EFK and ∠JHG.

Prove ΔGFJ ≅ ΔEKH using...

- SSS (Side + Side + Side)

          Two pairs of sides (EK + GJ and EH + FG) are equal, so KH and FJ need to be equal.

- SAS (Side + Angle + Side)

          FG + EH and KE + GJ are equal. We need to use the angle in between them to use SAS, so ∠KEH and ∠FGJ need to be equal.

Can someone help<br> Me please?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

  • minimum: 2 at x=0
  • maximum: 10 at x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking for extremes, one must consider both the turning points and the ends of the interval. Here, there is a relative minimum at x=7, and a relative maximum at x=3. However, the values at the ends of the interval are more extreme than these.

The absolute minimum on the interval is 2 at x=0.

The absolute maximum on the interval is 10 at x=10.
