Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a triangle are 6cm, 6cm, and 4cm.

According to triangle inequality, the sum of the length of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

So,

6+6=12>4

6+4=10>6

4+6=10>6

Therefore, the theorem of triangle inequality is satisfied for all three possible cases. This implies that only one triangle can be constructed with sides measuring 6cm, 6cm, and 4cm.

An isosceles trapezoid ABCD with height 2 units has all its vertices on the parabola y=a(x+1)(x−5). What is the value of a, if p

Answer:

a = -0.3575

Step-by-step explanation:

The points A and D lie on the x-axis, this means that they are the x-intercepts of the parabola, and therefore we can find their location.

The points A and B are located where

$y=a(x+1)(x-5)=0$

This gives

$x=-1$

$y=5$

Now given the coordinates of A, we are in position to find the coordinates of the point B. Point B must have y coordinate of y=2 (because the base of the trapezoid is at y=0), and the x coordinate of B, looking at the figure, must be x coordinate of A plus horizontal distance between A and B, i.e

$B_x=A_x+\frac{2}{tan(60)} =-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3}$
