Using th epythagorean theorem.
52^2-48^2= x^2
2704-2304= x^2
400=x^2
x=20
Final answer: D
Answer:
It is one-half the area of a rectangle with sides 4 units × 3 units
Step-by-step explanation:
One side of the triangle is on the line y = 2 between points x=2 and x=6. So, that side has length 6-2 = 4.
The opposite vertex has y-value 5, so is 3 units away from the line y = 2.
The area of the triangle can be considered to have a base of 4 and a height of 3. In the formula ...
A = (1/2)bh
we find the area to be ...
A = (1/2)×(4 units)×(3 units) . . . . triangle area
__
A rectangle's area is the product of its length and width. So, a rectangle that is 4 units by 3 units will have an area of ...
A = (4 units)×(3 units) . . . . rectangle area
Comparing the two area formulas, we see that the triangle area is 1/2 the area of the rectangle with sides 4 units × 3 units.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal
so
In this problem
If polygon RSUPE is similar to polygon KQUIC
then

substitutes the values and solve for a
