Using the diagram on the right, find the length of GT and TA.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Art [367]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

GT=10\ units  and TA=6\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the diagram

Triangles GRT and GEA are similar by AA Similarity Postulate

Remember that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

so

\frac{GR}{GE}=\frac{GT}{GA}

we have

GR=5\ units

GE=5+3=8\ units

GT=16-x\ units

GA=16\ units

substitute

\frac{5}{8}=\frac{16-x}{16}\\ \\5*16=8*(16-x)\\ \\80=128-8x\\ \\8x=128-80\\ \\x=48/8\\ \\x=6\ units

therefore

GT=16-x=16-6=10\ units

TA=x=6\ units

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-8, 1) and(7,1)?
likoan [24]

Answer:

y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

you can use those points to find the slope

use the equation \frac{y_{1} - y_{2}}{x_{1}-x_{2}} then plug in the numbers

so (1-1)/(-8-7) = 0/15 so the slope is zero meaning it is a horizontal line which we can tell logically because the y coordinates of both points are 1.

so if you plug those numbers into the formula y=mx+b where m is slope and b is the y intercept then

you get y=0*x+1

then 0*x is just zero and it goes away so the equation for this line is y=1

Hope this helps! :)
