Answer:

15.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call

  • a: distance from the top of the ladder to the ground = 10 ft
  • b: distance from the bottom of the ladder to the bottom of the slide = 12 ft
  • c: length of the slide

From Pythagorean theorem:

c² = a² + b²

c = √(10² + 12²)

c = 15.6 ft

the parallel sides of a trapezium are such that the longer side is 4cm more than the shorter side of the distance between them i
saw5 [17]

Answer:

32cm and 28cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezium=0.5 ( sum of parallel sides ) × height

600=0.5( 4+a+a)×20

where a is the length of the shorter side

600÷0.5=(4+2a)×20

1200=(4+2a)×20

1200÷20=4+2a

60=4+2a

60-4=2a

56=2a

56÷2=a

28=a.

since the longer side is 4 cm more than th shorter side , 28 +4=32

Can someone help me find x of this triangle
uysha [10]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of a triangle is 180°.

6x + 1 + 6x - 14 + 9x + 4 = 180°

Arrange the like terms together and simply this equation.

6x + 6x + 9x + 1 + 4 - 14 = 180°

21x - 9 = 180°

Shifting '-9' to the other side of the equation gives you '+9'

21x = 180° + 9

21x = 189

Shifting 21 to the other side of the equation (to get x) makes it  ÷21 (multiply)

x = 189 ÷ 21

x = 9
