An altitude is drawn from the vertex of an isosceles triangle, forming a right angle and two congruent triangles. As a result, t

he altitude cuts the base into two equal segments. The length of the altitude is 29 inches, and the length of the base is 18 inches. Find the triangle’s perimeter. Round to the nearest tenth of an inch.

Answer:

Perimeter = 78.7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question, applying the Pythagoras theorem to one of the congruent triangles formed, we have;

/hyp/^{2} = /adj 1/^{2} + /adj 2/^{2}

          = (29)^{2} + (9)^{2}

          =841 + 81

/hyp/^{2} = 922

hyp = \sqrt{922}

      = 30.3645

The perimeter of the triangle can be determined as;

perimeter = l_{1} + l_{2} + l_{3}

                 = 30.3645 + 18 + 30.3645

                 = 78.729

The perimeter of the triangle = 78.7 inches

Circumference + perimeter =38
x = circumference of circle
find r in terms of x
2\pir=x
r=\frac{x}{2 \pi }
Area=\pir^2
so..
A=\pi(\frac{x}{2 \pi })^2
=\pi(\frac{x^{2} }{4 \pi ^{2} })
=\frac{x^{2} }{4 \pi }

(38-x) is perimeter
then 
\frac{38-x}{4}
(\frac{38-x}{4})^2
\frac{x^{2} }{4 \pi } + (\frac{38-x}{4})^2
then you graph it and it equals
16.716 cm the circumference of the circle

krok68 [10]

Answer:

a. 2.6(0.12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Check all of the other answers: b. c. and d. are variations of equations that equal to 2.912. 2.6(0.12) is not the correct equation because it equals to 0.312. The kitten‘s weight must increase, so that is the incorrect equation.

Kevin plans to put concrete on a rectangular portion of his driveway the portion is 10 feet long and 3 inches high the price of
Fudgin [204]
First we need to know the total volume of concrete used:
V_total = \frac{cost_{total}}{cost{unit}}
V_total = \frac{\$72.98}{\frac{\$90}{yd^{3}}}
V_total = 0.7407yd^{3}

Now we can use the formula for volume of a rectangular prism:
V=lwh
Convert everythig to yards and substitute: 
0.7407yd^{3}=(3.33yd)(w)(0.08333yd)
w=\frac{0.7407}{3.33 \times 0.08333}
w \aprox 2.66yd
