The area of a trapezoid is

Mathematics
1 answer:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 15cm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b be the length of the second parallel side

Area of a trapezium is given by

A =  \frac{1}{2} (a + b)h

where

h is the height

a and b are the parallel sides

From the question

Area = 230 cm²

height = 20cm

one of parallel side / a = 8 cm

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for b

That's

230 =  \frac{1}{2} ( 8 + b) 20

Reduce the fraction with 2

That's

230 = (8 + b) \times 10

Expand the terms

That's

230 = 80 + 10b

10b = 230 - 80 \\ 10b = 150

Divide both sides by 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>b = 15cm</h3>

Hope this helps you

See the attached picture to better understand the problem

we know that
in the right triangle ABC
sin 63°=AB/BC
AB is the opposite side angle 63-----> x cm
BC is the hypotenuse-----> 85 cm
AB=BC*sin 63°-----> AB=85*sin 63-----> AB=75.736 cm
AB=75.8 cm

the answer is
the value of x is 75.8 cm

Need help on this Advanced algebra problem
zlopas [31]

Answer:

8 m, 17 m and 22 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The first side is x

The second is 1 more than twice the first = 2x + 1

The third is 2 less than 3 times the first = 3x - 2

Sum the 3 sides and equate to 47

x + 2x + 1 + 3x - 2 = 47, that is

6x - 1 = 47 ( add 1 to both sides )

6x = 48 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 8

Thus

side 1 = 8 m

side 2 = 2x + 1 = 2(8) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17 m

side 3 = 3x - 2 = 3(8) - 2 = 24 - 2 = 22 m

6. Dana measured the height of her
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

9 feet, 108 inches, 274.32 cm, 2.7432 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Not enough information is given to answer.

You didn't provide the list of "these" to choose from, but I can just list some potential answers I could see being an option.

3 yards = 9 feet [1 yard = 3 feet. 3 yards = 9 feet]

             9 feet is also 108 inches [1 foot = 12 inches. 9 feet = 108 inches]

3 yards = 108 inches

{There are 91.44 cm in a yard} (1 yard = 91.44 cm. 3 yards = 274.32 cm),

3 yards = 274.32 cm

3 yards = 2.7432 meters (1 yard = 0.9144 meters; 3 yards = 2.7432 meters)
