Answer: The answer is  x = 21, y = 5√21  and  z = 2√21.


Step-by-step explanation:  As given in the question and shown in the attached figure, ΔABC, ΔABD and ΔACD are all right-angled triangles. Here, AB = 10  and  BD = 4, We need to find the values of 'x', 'y' and 'z'.

From the right-angled triangle  ΔABD, we have after using Pythagoras theorem that

AB^2=BD^2+AD^2\\\\\Rightarrow 10^2=4^2+z^2\\\\\Rightarrow 100=16+z^2\\\\\Rightarrow z^2=84\\\\\Rightarrow z=2\sqrt{21}.

Again, from the right-angled triangles ΔABC and ΔACD, we have

AB^2+BC^2=AC^2\\\\\Rightarrow 100+y^2=(4+x)^2\\\\\Rightarrow 100+y^2=x^2+8x+16,

and

AC^2=AD^2+CD^2\\\\\Rightarrow y^2=z^2+x^2\\\\\Rightarrow y^2=84+x^2.

Subtracting the above equation from the previous one, we have

100=8x+16-84\\\\\Rightarrow 8x=168\\\\\Rightarrow x=21.

And finally,

y=\sqrt{84+441}=\sqrt{525}=5\sqrt{21}.

Thus, x = 21, y = 5√21  and  z = 2√21.

Translate the scenario below to a linear equation, then solve.
sashaice [31]

Answer:  x + 2x + x-40 = 180

First angle= 55º

Second angle= 110º

Third angle= 15º

​Step-by-step explanation:  The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180º

Take the values given and  use x as the unknown first angle. then create terms for the other two angles based on that:

The second angle of a triangle is double the first angle  becomes 2x

The third angle is 40 less than the first angle becomes x-40

x + 2x + x-40 = 180  Solve by adding like terms . x + 2x + x = 4x

4x -40 = 180   Add 40 to both sides to "cancel" the -40 on the left

4x + 40 -40 = 180 + 40   becomes  

4x = 220  Divide both sides by 4 to "cancel" the 4 on the left side

4x/4 = 220/4

x = 55   This is the first angle. Substitute 55 for the  "x" in the original terms

2(55) = 110   The second angle

(55) -40 = 15   the third angle

Find the radius of the circle if the center is at (1, 2) and the point (-3, 4) lies on the circle.
Anton [14]

Answer:

2√5

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is the distance from the center to a point anywhere along the edge of the circle. To find the distance between these two points, use the distance formula.

d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2} \\d = \sqrt{(1--3)^2 + (2-4)^2}\\ d = \sqrt{4^2 + -2^2}\\ d = \sqrt{16 + 4}\\ d = \sqrt{20} \\d = 2\sqrt{5}
