Took me a minute to think.
Form ratios.
x, the small triangle, forms a ratio with 6, the big triangle.
The part of the side that is equal(with the dash) that is part of the small triangle
is equal to 6-x, the big triangle.
Yes, you can cross-multiply here!

<em>Now,</em><em> </em>cross multiply.
P.S. Use distributive property.
36-6x = 8x
Add 6x on both sides.
36=14x
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x =

=
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the Law of Sines.
sin A sin B sin C
------- = -------- = --------
a b c
Inserting the given data,
sin 36 sin B sin C
--------- = -------- = --------
250 300 420
300 sin 36
Then 300 sin 36 = 250 sin B, and sin B = ---------------- = 0.705
250
Thus, arcsin B = 0.783 rad = 44.857 degrees, or about 45 degrees.
Taking B to be 45 degrees and the given angle 36 deg, then the 3rd angle must be 180 - (45+36) = 99 degrees (which is opposite the 420-ft side).
At this point we apply Heron's formula. You should look this up on the 'Net.
a + b + c 250 + 300 + 420
First, we calculate S = --------------- = ------------------------ = 970/2 = 485
2 2
and then calculate sqrt (S(S-A)(S-B)(S-C):
Area of triangle / lot is then:
A = sqrt(485(485-250)(485-300)(485-420))
= sqrt(485(235)(185)(65) )
= 37021 square feet
Answer:
-4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(8+10)/(-5+1)
(18/-4)
-4.5
Your answer would be: "a number (m) is greater than 13"
Hope this helps!! :)
