every similar line means that they have the same value
x=8
y=10
go look for a way to find the last side in the small rectangle that has x and y
The Pythagorean Theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.
From the picture you have a = 10 and c = 15.
Now you have:
10^2 + b^2 = 15^2
Simplify:
100 + b^2 = 225
Subtract 100 from both sides:
b^2 = 125
Take the square root of both sides:
b = √125
b = 11.2
Answer:
m∠YWZ=36°
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite rays are two rays that both start from a common point and go off in exactly opposite directions. Because of this the two rays (WX and WZ) form a single straight line through the common endpoint W.
If rays WX and WZ are opposite, then angle XWZ is straight angle. A straight angle always has the measure of 180°.
Point Y is in the interior of ∠XWZ, then angles XWY and EWZ are supplementary angles (together form straight angle XWZ). Supplementary angles always add up to 180°, then
m∠XWY+m∠YWZ=180°
You are given that
m∠XWY=4(m∠YWZ).
Substitute it into the previous equality:
4(m∠YWZ)+m\angle YWZ=180°
5(m∠YWZ)=180°
m∠YWZ=36°
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Setting it up as a fraction will help us see the simplification process a bit easier.
a/a = 1, so they cancel each other out, leaving us with simply
Since Christi earns $21 per hour, to find how much she earns by working 19 hours per week we need to multiply the hourly wage by the number of hours she works in a week:
Her weekly wage is $399
Answer: D) $399
