Answer:

Height of the sail is 9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sail is in the shape of a triangle and the formula of a triangle is

Area = (1/2)×Base×Height

Area of the sail has been given in the question and we have to calculate the height of the sail.

40.5 = (1/2)× Height× Height ( since base = height)

40.5×2 = height² = 81

height = √81 = 9 feet.

Both base and height of the sail is 40 1/2 feet.

A sail is triangular in shape. Finding the area of a triangle is multiplying its base and height and dividing the product by 2.

A = 1/2 bh

Area = 40 1/2 or 40.50 sq. ft
Since base and height are equal.
40.50 x 2 = 81
bh = 81
bh = 81 ÷ 2
b = 40 1/2 ft
h = 40 1/2 ft

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

y = -6/5x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Point Slope Form:  (y - y1) = m(x - x1)

<u>Step 1:  Find Slope</u>

m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

m = \frac{-3 - (-9)}{0 - 5}

m = \frac{-3 + 9}{-5}

m = \frac{6}{-5}

m = \frac{-6}{5}

<u>Step 2:  Plug into Point Slope Form</u>

(y - (-3)) = -6/5(x - 0)

y + 3 - 3 = -6/5x - 3

y = -6/5x - 3

Answer:  y = -6/5x - 3

BC is greater than AC is correct. If you need help with the construction, feel free to ask.
And maybe you're not clear with the options, because you've written BC two times which is necessarily not an answer/option.
