Answer:

The perimeter of a parallelogram is 42 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is 72 cm².

The formula for area of a parallelogram is

A=base \times height

It is given that the distances between the point of intersection of the diagonals and the sides are 3 cm and 4 cm.

The distance between point of intersection of the diagonals and the opposite  sides are same.

h_1=3+3=6cm

A=b_1\times h_1

72=b_1\times 6

b_1=12cm

The measure of a side is 12 cm.

h_2=4+4=8cm

A=b_2\times h_2

72=b_2\times 8

b_2=9cm

The measure of another side is 9 cm.

The perimeter of a parallelogram is

P=2(b_1+b_2)=2(12+9)=42

Therefore the perimeter of a parallelogram is 42 cm.

Answer: 42 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:m

Given: The area of a parallelogram is 72 cm².

The distances between the point of intersection of the diagonals and the sides are 3 cm and 4 cm.

We know that the area of a parallelogram is given by :-

Area=b*h....................................................................(1), where b is the base and h is the corresponding height.

Since, the distance between point of intersection of the diagonals and the opposite sides are same.

Therefore,

h_1=3+3=6\ cm\\h_2=4+4=8\ cm

Now, putting the value of h_1=6\ cm in (1). we get

72=b_1*6\\\\\Rightarrow\ b_1=\frac{72}{6}=12

⇒ The measure of one side =12 cm.

Now, putting the value of h_2=8\ cm in (1). we get

72=b_2*8\\\\\Rightarrow\ b_2=\frac{72}{8}=9

⇒ The measure of second side = 9 cm.

Now,The perimeter of a parallelogram is given by :-

2(b_1+b_2)\\=2(12+9)\\=2(21)=42\ cm

Hence, the perimeter of a parallelogram = 42 cm.

When a polynomial has more than one variable, we need to look at each term. Terms are separated by + or - signs.

</span>
Polynomials can be classified in two different ways - by the number of terms and by their degree. A monomial is an expression with a single term. It is a real number, a variable, or the product of real numbers and variables. A polynomial is a monomial or the sum or difference of monomials. A polynomial can be arranged in ascending order, in which the degree of each term is at least as large as the degree of the preceding term, or in descending order, in which the degree of each term is no larger than the degree of the preceding term. 

The polynomial (4x^2y + 5xy) is classified as a 3rd degree binomial, because the monomial 4x^2y has degree equal to 3 and the monomial 5xy has degree equal to 2. The highest degree is 3, therefore the polynomial (4x^2y + 5xy) is classified as a 3rd degree polynomial. Since polynomial <span><span> (4x^2y + 5xy)</span> has two terms, then it is classified as binomial.</span>

What is the approximate area of a circle with a radius of 30
amid [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle = π r²

r = 30

30² = 900

π = 3.14  or ≈ 3

A ≈ 900 × 3

A ≈ 2700

so C at 2830 is closest to the answer

zalisa [80]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

b is the intercept

in this equation "m", the slope, would be one. the y-intercept, or "b" would be 15
