What is the range of possible sizes for side x? 8.8

Mathematics
1 answer:
eduard2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The size of side x can range from 0.5 < x < 16.5.

The size of side x cannot take on values 0 and 16.5, but it ranges between those two values for side x to complete a triangle with those two other sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

What is the range of possible sizes for side x? One Side is 8.5 the other is 8.0.

Solution

With the logical assumption that the three sides are to form a triangle

Let the two sides given be y and z

And the angle between y and z be θ

The angle θ can take on values from 0° to 180° without reaching either values.

As θ approaches 0°, (x+z) becomes close to equaling y. (x + z) < y

It can never equal y, because θ can never be equal to 0°, if a triangle is to exist.

Hence, x > (z−y)

x > 8.5 - 8.0

x > 0.5

As θ approaches 180°, x approaches the sum y+z, θ can never equal 180° if a triangle is to exist, so x never equals (y+z).

Hence x < (y+z)

x < 8 + 8.5

x < 16.5

Hope this Helps!!!

i walked 3y - 2c + 600 meters yesterday. today, i walked 10,000 meters. how many more miles did i walk today?
Leokris [45]
To find out how much more you walked today, you want to find the difference between the two days, which is 10,000-(<span>3y - 2c + 600) = 9400-3y+2c using the distributive property (the negative sign in front of the parenthesis is essentially a -1)</span>

Find the measures of an interior angle and an exterior angle of a regular 16-gon
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

2520°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in any triangle is 180°

shape. sides. triangles. sum int angles.

triangle. 180×1=180°

quad. 180×2=360°

pentagon. 180×3=540°

n-sides. n( n−2) 180(n−2)

16-sides. 180×14=2520°

A college surveys 300 graduates and finds 98 graduated with honors and 207 had one or both parents graduate from college. Of the
musickatia [10]

Answer:

20.43% probability that a randomly chosen graduate from these 300 graduated with honors given that neither parent graduated from college.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Graduated with honors:

98 students graduated with honors. Of those, 79 had at least one parent graduating from college. So 98 - 79 = 19 did not.

Of 300 students, 207 had one or both parents graduate from college. So 300 - 207 = 93 did not have at least one parent graduating.

Find the probability that a randomly chosen graduate from these 300 graduated with honors given that neither parent graduated from college.

Of the 93 with no graduated parent, 19 earned honors

19/93 = 0.2043

20.43% probability that a randomly chosen graduate from these 300 graduated with honors given that neither parent graduated from college.

How can you construct perpendicular lines and prove theorems about perpendicular lines
omeli [17]

Answer:

See descriptions below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct a perpendicular bisector, draw a line segment. From each end of the line segment, draw arcs above and below which intersect from each side. Be sure to maintain the same radius on each. Where the arcs intersect above and below, mark points. Connect these two points. This is a perpendicular bisector.

To prove theorems about parallel lines, use angle relationships. For instance, when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, specific angle are congruent. When these relationships are congruent, you must have parallel lines:

  • Alternate Interior
  • Alternate Exterior
  • Corresponding Angles
  • Same side interior add to 180
