The length of the KN is 4.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know from Pythagoras theorem
In a right angle ΔLMN
Base² + perpendicular² = hypotenuse ²
From the properties of triangle we also know that altitudes are ⊥ on the sides they fall.
Hence ∠LKM = ∠NKM = 90 °
Given values-
LM=12
LK=10
Let KN be “s”
⇒LN= LK + KN
⇒LN= 10+x eq 1
Coming to the Δ LKM
⇒LK²+MK²= LM²
⇒MK²= 12²-10²
⇒MK²= 44 eq 2
Now in Δ MKN
⇒MK²+ KN²= MN²
⇒44+s²= MN² eq 3
In Δ LMN
⇒LM²+MN²= LN²
Using the values of MN² and LN² from the previous equations
⇒12² + 44+s²= (10+s) ²
⇒144+44+s²= 100+s²+20s
⇒188+s²= 100+s²+20s cancelling the common term “s²”
⇒20s= 188-100
∴ s= 4.4
Hence the value of KN is 4.4
Answer:
$15.75
Step-by-step explanation:
y × 100 = 5 × 15
100y = 75
100y ÷ 100 = 75 ÷ 100
y = 0.75
$15 - $0.75
$14.25
y × 100 = 10 × 15
100y = 150
100y ÷ 100 = 150 ÷ 100
y = 1.5
$14.25 + $1.50
$15.75
