The measure of the side SQ from the given diagram is 19/6
<h3>Similar shapes</h3>
Similar shapes are shapes that has equal length and equal side measures and angles.
From the given diagram, the measure of the sides TSis congruent to SP and the measure of MS is congruent to SQ.
Using the expression below to determine the value of x
MS/ST = SQ/SP
Given the following parameters
MS =30
ST = 10
SQ = 6x-1
SP = 3 - 2x
Substitute the given parameters into the formula to have:
30/10 = 6x-1/3-2x
Cross multiply
10(6x-1) = 30(3-2x)
Expand
60x - 10 = 90 - 60x
60x + 60x = 90 + 10
120x = 100
x = 10/12
x = 5/6
Determine the measure of SQ
SQ = 6x - 1
SQ = 5(5/6) - 1
SQ = 25/6 - 1
SQ = 19/6
Hence the measure of the side SQ from the given diagram is 19/6

By the Pythagorean theorem,
.. x^2 +(x -46)^2 = (x +4)^2
.. 2x^2 -92x +2116 = x^2 +8x +16
.. x^2 -100x +2100 = 0
.. (x -50)^2 -400 = 0
.. x = 50 ±20 . . . . . only x=70 makes any sense in the problem
The height, x, of the tree is 70 meters.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the value of x in each function and check if it's equal to it's corresponding value of y.
Correct me if I'm wrong. I hope it helps.
The one on the right would be greater
B) 40 because if you add the two angles at the bottom which are shown to be congruent, then subtract 180 from the sum of those two, then you are left with your answer
