Answer:

  BZ = 64/23 = 2 18/23

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisectors divide the triangle into proportional parts, so we have ...

  CB/CY = AB/AY

  CB = CY(AB/AY) = 4(8/6) = 16/3 . . . . multiply by CY and evaluate

and ...

  BZ/CB = AZ/AC

  BZ = AZ(CB/AC) . . . . multiply by CB

But we have ...

  AZ = 8 -BZ, so this becomes ...

  BZ = (8 -BZ)(16/3)/(10)

  BZ(1 +8/15) = 64/15 . . . . add the BZ term on the right to both sides

  BZ = (64/15)(15/23) = 64/23 . . . . divide by the coefficient of BZ

BZ = 64/23 = 2 18/23

The length of a rectangle is five times its width.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 5w

A = l*w

180 = 5w *w

180 = 5w^2

Divide each side by 5

180/5 = 5w^2 /5

36 = w^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(36) = sqrt(w)^2

6 =w

l = 5w = 5*6 = 30

The perimeter is

P = 2(l+w)

P = 2(6+30) = 2(36) = 72

What’s the answer and how did you get it? i’m confused
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The answer is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you should put the gh with gh, 2  is equivalent to 2 (so the 2 disappeared) and you only have 8-7=1 plus 2=3.
