Answer:
The possible lengths of the third side is all real numbers greater than 4 inches and less than 20 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
<u>The Triangle Inequality Theorem</u>. states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side
Let
x -----> the possible lengths of the third side
Applying the Inequality Theorem
1) 12+8 > x
20 > x
Rewrite
x < 20 in
2) 8+x > 12
x> 12-8
x > 4 in
therefore
4 in < x < 20 in
The possible lengths of the third side is all real numbers greater than 4 inches and less than 20 inches
Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
∠BAC ~ ∠EDF means that the triangles are similar. So the legs of the triangle share the same proportions, even if the sizes are different.
Since they share the same proportions, the same operations can be performed on each base to find the area.
The answer can be found with the knowledge that the area of a triangle is half of the height * width. You know the width of ∠BAC is 4, and the area is 8, so 16 (the area doubled) / 4 is the height. The width and height of ∠BAC are the same, and since the proportions are also the same, the width and height of ∠EDF are both 3. So the area is the width (3) times the height (3) divided by 2.
3*3 = 9
9/2 = 4.5
So the area is 4.5
Answer:
Probability that the measure of a segment is greater than 3 = 0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given attachment,
AB ≅ BC, AC ≅ CD and AD = 12
Therefore, AC ≅ CD = 
= 6 units
Since AC ≅ CD
AB + BC ≅ CD
2(AB) = 6
AB = 3 units
Now we have measurements of the segments as,
AB = BC = 3 units
AC = CD = 6 units
AD = 12 units
Total number of segments = 5
Length of segments more than 3 = 3
Probability to pick a segment measuring greater than 3,
= 
= 
= 0.6
Answer: 29,113.2 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:
Circumference = 2 x π x radius
Replacing with the values given:
Earth's mean circumference = 2 π 6,371.0 = 40,030.2 km
Earth's moon mean circumference = 2 π 1,737,5= 10,917 km
Now, we have to subtract Earth's moon mean circumference to Earth's mean circumference:
40,030.2- 10,917 =29,113.2 km
