Answer:

Perimeter of each triangles are equivalent to 15.4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A rectangle :

Length of the rectangle = 5 inches

Width of the rectangle =4 inches

As Bridget cuts it from one corner to the other corner,its forms two right angled triangle.

The diagonal will be treated as the hypotenuse.

Lets say that the length of the hypotenuse is 'x'.

Using Pythagoras formula:

⇒ (hypotenuse) = \sqrt{(perpendicular)^2+(base)^2}

Plugging the values:

⇒ hypotenuse = \sqrt{5^2+4^2}

⇒ hypotenuse = \sqrt{25+16}

⇒ hypotenuse =\sqrt{41}

⇒ hypotenuse = 6.40  inches

Now we have to find the perimeter :

Perimeter = Summation of length of all sides.

So,

Perimeter  of each triangle = (length + width + hypotenuse)

⇒ Perimeter =(5+4+6.4)

⇒ Perimeter =15.4  inches

Perimeter of each triangle, as they are equally sized are same that is   15.4 inches.

Solve the equation for x: c a−x/x−a =5x Answer: , a ≠ − 1/5
meriva

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=-\dfrac{1}{5}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{a-x}{x-a}=5x\\\\\dfrac{(a-x)}{-(a-x)}=5x\qquad\text{cancel}\ (a-x)\\\\-1=5x\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\-\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{5x}{5}\to\boxed{x=-\dfrac{1}{5}}

Figure ABCD is a parallelogram. If point C lies on the line y= -1, what is the x-value or point C?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.  4

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

Opposite sides of the parallelogram are equal.

From the figure we can see that,AB and CD are opposite sides.

Therefore AB = CD

<u>To find the length of AB</u>

From the figure we get, AB = 4 units

Therefore CD = 4 units

<u>To find the x coordinate of point C</u>

y coordinate is -1

x coordinate is 4 units from point D

x coordinate of D is 0, therefore x coordinate of C = 0 + 4 = 4

The correct answer is option D. 4
