Answer:

PQ = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

PT = 3x + 3

TQ = 5x - 9

Midpoint, T

Required

Determine PT

First, the value of x has to be calculated;

Since T is the midpoint, then:

PT = TQ

This implies

3x + 3 = 5x - 9

Solve for x

3x - 5x = -3 - 9

-2x = -12

x = -12/-2

x = 6

Length PQ can then be calculated using:

PQ = PT + TQ

PQ = 3x +3 + 5x -9

Collect Like Terms

PQ = 3x+ 5x +3  -9

PQ = 8x -6

Substitute 6 for x

PQ = 8 * 6 - 6

PQ = 48 - 6

PQ = 42

What is the length x of the right triangle, rounded to the nearest<br> tenth?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

109.5; B

Step-by-step explanation:

From your identity,

CosA = adjacent/ hypothenus

A represent an arbitrary angle between the sides in question.

In the question above, A=64

Hypothenus is the longest side and adjacent is the side just below the angle .

In the above case,

Hypothenus= X

adjacent =48

This means;

Cos64 = 48 /X

X = 48 / cos64; [ from cross multiplication and diving through by cos64]

X = 48 /0.4383 [ cos64 in radian = 0.4383]

= 109.51

= 109.5 to the nearest tenth.

Note( do your calculation of angle in radian or else, you won't get the answer)
