In a square all 4 sides are equal, so when you cut it along the diagonal to make a triangle, both the base and the height of the triangle would be the same.
The area of a triangle is found by the formula 1/2 x base x height
Since the base and height are the same the formula becomes Area = 1/2 x S^2 ( where S is the length of a side).
The area is given as 0.72 square units.
Now you have 0.72 = 1/2 x S^2
First multiply both sides by 2:
1.44 = S^2
To find S, take the square root of both sides:
S = √1.44
S = 1.2
The side length is 1.2 units.
Answer:
14,000+2.1%(0.021)x
Step-by-step explanation:
x is how many years
Answer:
16 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that x is the original width. If that original width is enlarged by a scale factor 5/2 that means that x is multiplied by 5/2 and after that multiplication we obtained new width, 40 cm.
Therefore,
x*(5/2) = 40
We multiply the equation by 2 and obtain:
x*5 = 40*2
5x = 80
Now we divide the equation by 5 and obtain:
x = 80/5
x = 16
We obtained that x, the original width was 16 cm
Answer:
120
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = rise / run
1/20 = 6 / run
run = 120
