Charles and Seth are building a ramp for Sasha and Samantha. The base of the triangle is 11ft and it's height is 5ft. How long i

Mathematics

Arlecino [84]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 12.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A ramp represents a right-angled triangle so Pythagorean formula can be used to find the diagonal length which will also be the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

Where:

c = hypotenuse

a = base

b = Height

c² = 11² + 5²

c² = 121 + 25

c² = 146

c = √146

c = 12.1 ft

One number added to twice another number is 13. Four times the first
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Let's call the first number x, and the second number y. Putting what you have said into equation form:

x+2y=13
\\\\4x+2y=-2


Subtracting one equation from another gives:

x+2y=13 \\-(4x+2y=-2)

\\\\-3x=15
\\x=-5

If x = -5,

x+2y=13
\\(-5)+2y=13
\\2y=18
\\y=9

So the first number is -2, the second number is 9

How to write 1/12 as a decimal with long division?
Leto [7]
To write 1/12 as a decimal you would do 1 divided by 12. 1 goes into 12 0 times, giving you a 0 in the ones place. You would the do 120 divided by 12, giving you 10. Therefore, 1/12 as a decimal is 0.10, simplified to 0.1

The smaller triangle was dilated to form the larger triangle. What is the value of x? A smaller triangle has side lengths of 5,
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation is a transformation in which the size of a given figure is either increased or decreased by a scale factor.

Given that the length of sides of the smaller triangle are; 5, 13, 12.

Given also that the length of the dilated triangle are; x, blank, 18.

Comparing the length of the last sides of the two triangles, we have;

(scale factor x 12) + 12

                        = (\frac{1}{2} x 12) + 12

                        = 6 + 12

                        = 18

Thus the scale factor for the dilation is \frac{1}{2}. So that:

x = (\frac{1}{2} x 5) + 5

   = 2.5 + 5

   = 7.5

x = 7.5

And also,

blank = (\frac{1}{2} x 13) + 13

          = 6.5 + 13

blank  = 19.5

Therefore, the length of the sides of dilated triangle are: 7.5, 19.5, 18
