Answer:

6.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a picture of an equilateral triangle.  Cut the triangle in half, so that you get two 30-60-90 triangles.  The area of these smaller triangles is 8 square inches.

The short leg of these triangles (the base) is half the side length: ½ s.

According to properties of 30-60-90 triangles, the long leg (the height) is √3 times the short leg: ½ s√3.

Area of a triangle is half the base times the height:

A = ½bh

8 = ½ (½ s) (½ s√3)

8 = ⅛ s²√3

64 = s²√3

s² = 64/√3

s = √(64/√3)

s ≈ 6.1

Please help! It’s late! (One question)
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Answer: Both

Explanation: The triangles all have corresponding congruent angles. We can tell this by finding the third angle of the original problem: 96.

Then you can read each triangle by what it states. Angle A is congruent to the corresponding angles in the other triangles, which are Q and T. Angle B is congruent to the corresponding angles in the other triangles, which are R and U. Angle C is congruent to the corresponding angles in the other triangles, which are S and V.

We know heard similar since they have congruent angle measures in corresponding spots.

Jenny is building a rectangular garden around a tree in her yard. the southwest corner of the garden will be 2 feet south and 3
irina [24]
3 feet west + 4 feet east means that the length of the rectangle is 7
2 feet south and 1 foot north means that the height (or width) 3.
Since the rectangle is 3 ft by 7ft the total distance around (perimeter) is 2 (l+w) or in this case 2 (7 +3) = 2 (10) = 20 ft  Answer b

1. f(6) if f(x) = 4x I know the answer I just need the explanation please thank you!
suter [353]
So when you have one of these, it’s just asking you so solve it as if x were 6 (as you see where the x in f(x) is replaced with a 6.

so you’d sub x for 6

giving you:

4 x (6)

which = 24

hope that makes sense :)

Solve the simultaneous equations y=3x+2 and y=x+6
kogti [31]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3x+2

y=x+6

Since you're stating that, they both equal because equation is equated to equation 2 because of the Y.

Therefore, substitute into both equations as shown:

3x+2=x+6

3x-x=6-2  (bring 2 to the other side by subtracting 2 as well as x)

2x=4

2x/2=4/2  (dividing 2 on both sides to get rid off 2 in 2x)

x=2.
