Answer:

243 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The total perimeter for each part is 8x.

SOLVE 6-9. State of each triangle is a right triangle
11111nata11111 [884]

To find out if a triangle is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem(which can only be used for right triangles):

a² + b² = c² (c is the hypotenuse or the longest side) And you can plug in the side lengths into this equation. If they are the same number on both sides, it is a right triangle, if they are different numbers it is not a right triangle.


6.) a² + b² = c²

(4√3)² + (11)² = (13)²

(16(3)) + 121 = 169

48 + 121 = 169

169 = 169 It IS a right triangle


7.) a² + b² = c²

(5)² + (2√14)² = (9)²

25 + (4(14)) = 81

25 + 56 = 81

81 = 81 It IS a right triangle


8.) a² + b² = c²

(6)² + (√49)² = (√82)²

36 + 49 = 82

85 = 82 It is NOT a right triangle


9.) a² + b² = c²

(13)² + (2√39)² = (16)²

169 + (4(39)) = 256

169 + 156 = 256

325 = 256 It is NOT a right triangle

Answer:

CE and GD

Step-by-step explanation:

A secant of a circle is a line which passes through only 2 points of the circle. So it bisects the circle at exactly 2 points. BF is not a secant because even though the points are labelled there is no line passing through. The reason why GD is a secant is because there are the points G and F and a straight line runs through them so that's why it's a secant

Solve for x.<br><br> x=<br><br> Look at image
postnew [5]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, the following equation is generated given the available information:

\frac{(x + 7) + x)}{x + 7} = \frac{12 + 8}{12}

\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{20}{12}

\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{5}{3}

Cross multiply

3(2x + 7) = 5(x + 7)

6x + 21 = 5x + 35

Collect like terms

6x - 5x = - 21 + 35

x = - 21 + 35

x = 14

The long side of a box is 6 inches. That is 3 times the length of the short side. How long is the short side? PLEASE HELP NEED A
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If the long side is 6 inches and it's 3x the length of the short side, then you need to divide the long side into 3 parts because the short side is 1/3 the length of the long side. This means that the short side is 2 inches.
