Answer:

25 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for the missing figure.

Assuming the complete question is:

Side UY = 4z-1

Side UV = 5z+3

Perimeter of rectangle is given by:

2UY+2UV=P

2(4z-1)+2(5z+3)=84

8z-2+10z+6=84

18z+4=84

18z = 84 -4 =>

18z = 80

z= 4.45 unit

Side UV = 5z+3 => 5(4.45) + 3

Side UV ≈ 25 unit

SInce, Side UV = Side XY

Side XY≈ 25 unit

A brace for a shelf has the shape of a right triangle. Its hypotenuse is 10 inches long and the two legs are equal in length. Ho

vagabundo [1.1K]

This is a classic example of a 45-45-90 triangle: it's a right triangle (one angle of 90) & two other sides of the same length, which means two angles of the same length (and 45 is the only number that will work). With a 45-45-90 triangle, the lengths of the legs are easy to determine:
45-45-90
1-1-sqrt2
Where the hypotenuse corresponds to sqrt2.
Now, your hypotenuse is 10.
To figure out what each leg is, divide 10/sqrt2 (because sqrt2/sqrt2 = 1, which is a leg length in the explanation above).
Problem: you can't divide by radicals. So, we'll have to rationalize the denominator:
(10•sqrt2)/(sqrt2•sqrt2)
This can be rewritten:
10sqrt2/sqrt(2•2)
=10sqrt2/sqrt4
=10sqrt2/2
=5sqrt2 Hope this helps!!

You buy a game for $40, and the sales tax is $2. What percent of the game price are you paying in sales tax?

Andreas93 [3]

To get the answer we can use proportion
40$ ------------- 100%
2$ ---------------- x
crossmultiply now
40x=2*100 /:40
x=200:40
x=5% - its the answer

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!

For this case what we must do is use the law of cosines.
We then have the following equation:
$c ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 - 2 * a * b * cos (x)
$
Where,
a, b: sides of the triangle
x: angle between sides a and b.
Substituting values we have:
$c^2 = 90^2 + 75^2 - 2*90*75*cos(85)
$
Clearing the value of c we have:
$c = \sqrt{ 90^2 + 75^2 - 2*90*75*cos(85)}$
Answer:
An expression that is equivalent to how many feet the oak trees are from each other is:
$c = \sqrt{ 90^2 + 75^2 - 2*90*75*cos(85)}$
