Find the length to the nearest centimeter of the diagonal of a square 30 cm. on a side

Answer:

42 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

Let x be the length of diagonal of the square.

We have been given that length of each side of a square is 30 cm. We are asked to find the length of the diagonal of square to the nearest centimeter.

We can see from our diagram that triangle AC is the diagonal of our square.

Since all the interior angles of a square are right angles or equal to 90 degrees, so we will use Pythagoras theorem to find the length of diagonal.

AC^2=AD^2+DC^2  

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

x^2=(30\text{ cm})^2+(30\text{ cm})^2

x^2=900\text{ cm}^2+900\text{ cm}^2

x^2=1800\text{ cm}^2

Let us take square root of both sides of our equation.

x=\sqrt{1800\text{ cm}^2}

x=42.4264\text{ cm}\approx 42\text{ cm}

Therefore, the length of diagonal of our given square is 42 cm.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

5(6x-1)-10x+5=4(x+10)-4x

simplify both sides

30x-5-10x+5=4x+40-4x

Simplify even further

20x=40

What are the similarities and differences between the standard form and vertex form of a quadratic equation?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: <u>Standard</u> <u>form</u> of a quadratic equation is expressed as: y=ax²+bx+c, while <u>vertex</u> <u>form</u> is written as:

y=a(x-h)²+k.

The similarities between standard and vertex forms is that they show if the graph of the equation has a <u>minimum</u> (when a>0) or <u>maximum</u> (a<0) and it's easier to determine the y-intercept: for standard, the value of c is the intercept; for vertex, the value k is the intercept.

The advantage of standard form is that you can determine the product and sum of the equation's roots, which is a method to determine them.

The advantages of vertex form are: easier to find the vertex of the graph, which is the pair (h,k) and the axis of symmetry, which is the value of h.
