Answer: 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The legs are given to be :

3x - 1 and -x + 27

The base = 5x + 1

One of the properties of an isosceles triangle is that two sides are equal , that is the two legs are equal. This means that

3x - 1 = - x + 27

3x + x = 27 + 1

4x = 28

x = 7

To calculate the length of the base, substitute x = 7 into the length of the base given , that is

Length of the base = 5(7) + 1

L = 35 + 1

L = 36

Determine whether or not there is a congruence between △abc and △def. if there is such a congruence, then give the reason for it
Andru [333]

There is no congruence between the triangles based on the given information. In general, two sides and an angle not between them are insufficient to specify the triangle completely. In this case, the angles that are congruent are adjacent to non-corresponding sides, so even if SSA correspondence were sufficient to ensure congruence, it would not be sufficient in this case.


The appropriate choice is

... none

When two fair dice are rolled, what is the probability that at least one of the numbers will be even??
netineya [11]
The probability would be 1/4. The probability of rolling an even number on each die is 1/2. Since there are two dice you would multiply the probability of each die together. 1/2*1/2=1/4. The reason you would this is because you could roll two odd numbers that equal an even number such as 3 and 5.
