Find the area of a square with a diagonal of 8cm.

1 answer:

7 0

You have to use the Pythagorean theorem but there is a little twist here since a square has has equal sides. So:
x^2+x^2=8
2x^2=8
2/2x^2=8/2
x^2=4
√x^2=√4
x=2
The side of the square is 2.
So now the area of a square is:
Side×Side
2×2=4
The area of the square is 4 centimetres

Jonathan sold five times as many computers as Joe sold last year. In total,

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of computers sold by Joe be represented by variable X

If Jonathan sold 5 times as many computers , it means he sold 5 times X= 5X

Total number of computers sold by both Jonathan and Joe = 78

Hence, X+5X =78

= 6X = 78

Divide both sides by 6 to solve for X;

X = 78/6

X = 13

And 5X = (5* 13) = 65

Therefore, Jonathan sold 65 computers while Joe sold 13

A triangle has vertices T(-2,4), E(6,2), and D(1,-1). Is ATED a right triangle?

inessss [21]

Answer:

B. Yes, because ED is perpendicular to DT which makes a right angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plot the given points and connect in pairs to get a triangle.

Visually we can say it is a right triangle as legs TD and ED seem perpendicular.

Let's confirm this by finding the slopes.

Slope of TD:

m = (-1 - 4)/(1 -(-2)) = -5/3

Slope of ED:

(-1 - 2)/ (1 - 6) = -3/-5 = 3/5

Product of the slopes is:

-5/3*3/5 = -1

This confirms DT⊥ED

Correct choice is B
