Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
=
( cross- multiply )
5(2x + 1) = 8(x + 4) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )
10x + 5 = 8x + 32 ( subtract 8x from both sides )
2x + 5 = 32 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
2x = 27 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 13.5 → d
Answer:
11. A.
12. D.
Step-by-step explanation:
11: Sin is just the side opposite of the angle divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle
Opposite of A = 36
Hypotenuse of the triangle = 39
36/39 =
12. Tan is the side opposite of the angle divided by the side adjacent to the angle
Opposite of C = 35
Adjacent to C = 12
35/12 =

Answer:
The base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is given by:
(1)
Where:
b: is the base
h: is the altitude = 10 cm
If we take the derivative of equation (1) as a function of time we have:
We can find the base by solving equation (1) for b:
Now, having that dh/dt = 1 cm/min, dA/dt = 2 cm²/min we can find db/dt:
Therefore, the base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
I hope it helps you!
