Answer:

SP = 43 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete: find the complete question in the attachment.

From the figure attached,

Length of LN = (5x - 14)

Length of SP = (2x + 3)

By the mid-segment theorem,

"Segment connecting the mid points of two sides of a triangle is parallel and half the length of the third side."

SP = \frac{1}{2}(\text{LN})

(2x + 3) = \frac{1}{2}(5x - 14)

4x + 6 = 5x - 14

5x - 4x = 14 + 6

x = 20

SP = (2x + 3)

    = (2×20) + 3

    = 43 units

Therefore, measure of SP = 43 units is the answer.

The rectangle has an area of x to the second power plus 13x + 36 sq.Meters and a length of x + 9 meters. What expression represe
elena-s [515]

Answer: the expression for the width is x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is expressed as

Area = x² + 13x + 36 square meters.

The length is expressed as

L = x + 9 meters

To determine the expression for the width of the rectangle, we would factorize the expression for the area. Hence

x² + 13x + 36 = 0

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 13x and their product is 36x². The two numbers are 9x and 4x. Therefore,

x² + 9x + 4x + 36 = 0

x(x + 9) + 4(x + 9) = 0

(x + 4)(x + 9)

Therefore, the expression that represents the width of the rectangle is x + 4

In order to circumscribe a circle on a triangle, which line must you construct?
GalinKa [24]
We need to construct the perpendicular bisectors of at least two of the three sides.

The perpendicular bisector is the locus of points that ensures equal distance between any point on the line and the two ends of the segment. 

The intersection of the two or three (congruent) perpendicular bisectors is the centre of the circumcircle.
