The Triangle sides have to be greater than c.

a+b > c

With the given inches, substitute it into the equations:

a = 3 in

b = 5 in

c = 9 in

3 + 5 > 9

Solve.

9 > 9

This is False since because a + b is not > c. a + b is equal to c.

Yes, it would be a scalene triangle. This can happen.

Find the missing lengths: LK=15 and KH=9, find KI and HI.
Luda [366]

Answer:

KI=11.25 and HI=6.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

According to Pythagoras Theorem:

base^2+perpendicular^2=hypotenuse^2

Use Pythagoras in triangle HKL

LH^2+KH^2=LK^2

(LH)^2+9^2=15^2

(LH)^2+81=225

(LH)^2=144

Taking square root on both sides.

LH=12

Let length of HI be x.

LI = 12+x

Use Pythagoras theorem in ΔKLI,

(KI)^2+15^2=(12+x)^2

(KI)^2+225=x^2+24x+144

(KI)^2=x^2+24x+144-225

(KI)^2=x^2+24x-81...(1)

Use Pythagoras theorem in ΔHKI,

(KI)^2=x^2+9^2

(KI)^2=x^2+81...(2)

From (1) and (2) we get

x^2+81=x^2+24x-81

24x=162

x=\dfrac{162}{24}=6.75

Hence, the measure of HI is 6.75 units.

Substitute x=6.75 in equation (2).

(KI)^2=(6.75)^2+81

(KI)^2=126.5625

Taking square root on both sides.

KI=\sqrt{126.5625}

KI=11.25

Hence, the measure of KI is 11.25 units.

What are the next two terms in this pattern 3,6,5,10,9,18,17....?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

It looks like it's going in a distinct pattern

Step-by-step explanation:

3X2=6 5X2=10 9X2=18 17X2=34

But then the pattern stops so I'm not sure if that's right. But, I hope I at least helped in someway!~

 Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to 4 x + 3 y = 5 and goes through the point (3, –3)
Allisa [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

the line equation

y = ax + b

gives us slope (a) and y-interception (b).

4x + 3y = 5

3y = -4x + 5

y = -4/3 × x + 5/3

the slope of the original line is therefore -4/3.

a perpendicular slope flips x and y upside-down and flips the sign.

so, the perpendicular slope of -4/3 is 3/4.

the desired line looks like

y = 3/4 × x + b

b we get by using the given point and its coordinates :

-3 = 3/4 × 3 + b = 9/4 + b

-12/4 = 9/4 + b

b = -21/4

so our full line equation is

y = 3/4 × x - 21/4

or

4y = 3x - 21

-3x + 4y = -21

The probability of a drawing a blue marble from a box of 18 marbles is 2/3. How many green marbles should be added to the box in
artcher [175]

Answer:

6 green marbles should be added.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of drawing a blue marble from 18 marbles is 2/3 then there are 12 blue marbles because 18 times 2/3 is 12. This means that to reduce this probability to 1/2 you need to add 6 more marbles to the total amount to get it to 24. Now the probability of getting a blue marble is 12/24 which is 1/2.
