Answer:

|GH| = 5,7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To know |GH|, you first need to find the length of |GD|.

We can calculate |GD| by;

cosG = |GC| / |GD|

<=> |GD| = |GC| / cosG

=> |GD| = 3,9 cm/ 0,62 = 6,33 cm

We now can easily calculate |GH| with the sinus of angle D;

sinD = |GH| / |GD|

<=> |GH| = sinD.|GD|

=> |GH| = 0,899.6,33 cm = 5,694 cm => 5,7 cm

I hope i did not make a mistake ...

john's dad gave him 8 3/4 pieces of wood. he used 4 2/3 pieces to make a bird house. his friend david then asked for 1 1/2 piece

Serjik [45]

Ok so this all about subtracting fractions this is what you want to do:

you can change 8 3/4 and 4 2/3 to have the same value and deominator
8 3/4 = 8 9/12(multiply both sides by 3)
4 2/3 = 4 8/12(multiply both sides by 4)
you do this because 12 is divisible by 3 and 4

then, subtract 4 8/12 from 8 9/12 because John is using some of the wood his dad gave him.
then subtract once again, taking 11/2 away from your difference.
again match the deominator of 11/2 to the deominator of your difference which should be 12. another divisible of 12 is 2 and 6.
11/2 = 66/12 = 5 6/12(multiply both the top and bottom by 6)
and start subtracting.

so John should have -1 5/12(?) wood left

what is the y-intercept of the line perpendicular to the line y=-3/4x+5 that includes the point (-3,-3)?

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question, your friend is the point-slope form.

Point-slope form = $y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)$

The only variables you replace are m = slope, y1 = y of a given point, and x1 = x of a given point.

First, we need to find the slope that is perpendicular to the equation $y=-\frac{3}{4}x+5$

An equation that is perpendicular to another equation have to be negative reciprocals (negative inverse) of each other.

If the slope is 3, then the negative reciprocal of 3 is $-\frac{1}{3}$ .

So, since the given slope is -3/4, the negative reciprocal is $\frac{4}{3}$ .

We will use the negative reciprocal as m since we are trying to find the equation of line that includes (-3, -3) and is perpendicular to the other equation.

We will use point slope form using the (-3, -3) points and negative reciprocal as m.

$y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y-(-3) = \frac{4}{3} (x-(-3))\\y+3=\frac{4}{3}(x+3)$

Now, we need to convert this into slope-intercept form. The reason why we need to do this is because y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept. To do this, solve for y - or in other words, isolate y..

$y+3=\frac{4}{3}(x+3)\\y+3=\frac{4x}{3}+4\\y+3-3=\frac{4x}{3}+4-3\\y=\frac{4}{3}x+1$
