An equilateral triangle and an isosceles triangle share a common side. what is the measure of ABC ?

Mathematics

Answer:

\angle ABC=116^o

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the measure of the vertex angle ∠ABD of an isosceles triangle

we know that

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles

In this problem

\angle BDA=\angle BAD=62^o ----> the angles of the base are equals

Find the measure of the vertex angle ABD

\angle ABD=180\°-2*62\°=56\° ------> the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is equal to 180 degrees

step 2

Find the measure of the angle  ∠CBD in the equilateral triangle

we know that

A equilateral triangle has three  equal sides and three equal angles

The measure of the internal angle in a equilateral triangle is equal to 60 degrees

so

\angle CBD=60\°

step 3

Find the measure of the angle ∠ABC

we know that

\angle ABC=\angle ABD+\angle DBC ---> by addition angle postulate

substitute the values

\angle ABC=56^o+60^o

\angle ABC=116^o

Find the equation of the line shown.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

y = - x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{0-9}{9-0} = \frac{-9}{9} = - 1

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 9 ) ⇒ c = 9

y = - x + 9 ← equation of line

What is the surface area of this rectangular pyramid?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

304m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the surface area of the base by multiplying the length by the width.

(12m) (8m)= 96m^2

Second, find the surface area of the front and back triangles using the formula <em>1/2 (base) (height)</em>. Use the length for the base.

1/2 (12m) (10m)= 60m^2

Next, find the surface area of the side triangles using the formula <em>1/2 (base) (height). </em>Use the width as the base.

1/2 (8m) (11m)= 44m^2

Last, add the surface area of each section. Make sure you add the area of each face.(we only solved for 1 of the front/ back triangles and 1 of the side triangles) To make it easier to understand I wrote out an equation to show how I added the surface areas.

base=a, front/ back triangles= b, side triangles=c

SA= a + 2b +2c  or SA= a +b +b +c +c

Using one of the equations above solve for the total surface area.

SA= (96m^2) + (60m^2) +(60m^2) +(44m^2) +(44m^2)

or

SA= (96m^2) + 2(60m^2) +2(44m^2)

SA=  (96m^2) +(120m^2) +(88m^2)

SA= 304m^2
