ANSWER

|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft

EXPLANATION

The given right triangle is an isosceles triangle because

m \: < \: B = 45 \degree = m \: < \: C
This implies that,

|AB|=12ft=|AC|

From the Pythagoras Theorem,

|BC|^2=|AB|^2+|AC|^2

|BC|^2= {12}^{2} + {12}^{2}

|BC|^2=2 \times {12}^{2}

|BC| = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} \times 2 }

|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft

<u>Answer:</u>

BC = 12\sqrt{2}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given a right angled triangle ABC with the side AC 12 feet long while the measure of the angle B is 45 degrees.

We are to find the length of the side BC. For that, we can use the sine function:

sin 45 = \frac {12} {BC}

Since sin 45 is equal to \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } so we can substitute this value instead to get the answer in simple radical form.

\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } = \frac {12} {BC}

BC = \frac{12}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }}

BC = 12\sqrt{2}

What is the value of y?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

\boxed{D. \: 40\degree}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°</em>

So,

=  > 2y \degree + (y + 10)\degree + 50\degree = 180\degree \\  \\  =  > 2y\degree + y\degree + 10\degree + 50\degree = 180\degree \\  \\  =  > 3y\degree + 60\degree = 180\degree \\  \\  =  > 3y\degree = 180\degree - 60\degree \\  \\  =  > 3y\degree = 120\degree \\  \\  =  > y =  \frac{120\degree}{3\degree}  \\  \\  =  > y = 40\degree

A quadrilateral with 90 degree angles is shown. The lengths of the left and right sides are 10 and 2 y + 4. The lengths of the t
notka56 [123]

Answer: y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quadrilateral has 90 degree angles, it must be a a square or a rectangle. This means the measure of sides left and right are the same and the measure of sides top and bottom are the same.

To get the measure of y, you can use left and right or top nd bottom.

I'll use left and right. 10=2y+4 => 10-4=2y => 6=2y => y=3

You can check it by substituting. 2(3)+4=10      The answer is the measure of the right side, which is the same as the measure of the left side.

I hope this helps you!
