Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first triangle, you have the following relation between a, b and h.

\frac{a}{h} = \frac{h}{b}

This is another form of the Altitude Theorem in a right triangle.

In the second example, we use the Altitude Theorem:

Let h denote the dotted line / the altitude;

h^2 = 7 \cdot 9 = 36

h = 6, we take the positive version since we're in Euclidean Geometry.

Now we have to solve for x. It's easy since the h that we solved for is in a right triangle and we have Pythagora's Theorem for that.

It states: x^2 = 6^2 + 9^2 = 117

So x = \sqrt{117}

In this lesson, you learned new formulas to find the area of a triangle. How are these formulas different from the commonly know
Yuki888 [10]
Aside from the conventional formula for triangle, A=<span>½bh which is only applicable to problems where the base and height are already given and the triangle is a right triangle having a degree of 90. There are some formulas in getting the area of a triangle:

>Given three sides of the triangle, use Heron's Formula
A= sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
s= (a+b+c)/2
>Given two sides with an included angle
</span>Area = <span>1/2 </span><span>ab sin (tetha)
</span><span>tethat should be in degrees

Wich graph is the result of the reflection f(x) =1/4(8)^x across the y axis and then across the x- axis
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

I assume that the function is:

f(x) = \frac{1}{4}*8^x

Now let's describe the general transformations that we need to use in this problem.

Reflection across the x-axis:

For a general function f(x), a reflection across the x-axis is written as:

g(x) = -f(x)

Reflection across the y-axis:

For a general function f(x), a reflection across the y-axis is written as:

g(x) = f(-x)

Then a reflection across the y-axis, and then a reflection across the x-axis is just:

g(x) = -(f(-x)) = -f(-x)

In this case, we have:

f(x) = \frac{1}{4}*8^x

then:

g(x) = -f(-x) =  -\frac{1}{4}*8^{-x}

Now we can graph this, to get the graph you can see below:
