Find the value of x in the isosceles triangle shown.​

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the base of the triangle is 6 and the line dividing the triangle is x. To get x divide the triangle into two equal halves. When you do so,you’ll have a right triangle with x as the opposite , 8 as the hypotenuse and the adjacent as 3.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have

8^2 = x^2 + 3^2

8 x 8 = x^2 + 3 x 3

64 = x^2 + 9

Subtract 9 from both sides

64 - 9 = x^2 + 9 - 9

55 = x^2

X^2 = 55

x = squared root of 55

x = 7.4

x = 7

Please answer this correctly please

If we have 2 more blue pens than black pens, our blue pens can be rewritten as blue = 2 + black. Now we can set up an equation. Originally this equation would involve both blue and black, but since we only have 1 equation to set up, we can only have 1 unknown. That's why we base the number of blue pens on the number of black pens and do a substitution. So instead of blue + black = 94, we have (black + 2) + black = 94. That simplifies to 2 black + 2 = 94, and 2 black = 92. Now if we divide by 2, we get that the number of black pens is 46. If we have 2 more blue than black, the number of blue pens we have is 48. 46 + 48 = 94, so there you go!
