Triangle ABC has side length of 14, 8 and 10.4 what are the possible side lengths of a triangle DEF if ABC is similar to DEF

Mathematics

Answer:

<em>DEF can have possible side lengths of 28, 16, 20.8</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Triangle Similarity</u>

If the three sides of two triangles have the same proportion, the triangles are similar (SSS theorem).

Triangle ABC has side lengths of 14, 8, and 10.4.

Any other triangle whose side lengths are the same lengths of ABC multiplied by a constant scale factor is similar to ABC.

For example, select scale factor 2. Thus, the triangle of side lengths 2*14=28, 2*8=16, and 2*10.4=20.8 is similar:

DEF can have possible side lengths of 28, 16, 20.8

Any other scale factor will do.

What is the volume of the rectangular prism?<br><br> Type the answer in the boxes below.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

15 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

I think it's 15 because if you count, there are 30 boxes. Each box has a volume of 1/2, so you are supposed to multiply, which means 1/2x30.

1/2x30=15

I hope it's right!

Dividing the polynomial P(x) by x-6 yields a quotient by Q(x) and a remainder of 5.
bazaltina [42]

Dividing the given polynomial by (x -6) gives quotient Q(x) and remainder 5 then for Q(-6) = 3 , P(-6) = -31and P(6) =5.

As given in the question,

P(x) be the given polynomial

Dividing P(x) by divisor (x-6) we get,

Quotient = Q(x)

Remainder = 5

Relation between polynomial, divisor, quotient and remainder is given by :

P(x) = Q(x)(x-6) + 5   __(1)

Given Q(-6) = 3

Put x =-6 we get,

P(-6) = Q(-6)(-6-6) +5

⇒ P(-6) = 3(-12) +5

⇒ P(-6) =-36 +5

⇒ P(-6) = -31

Now x =6 in (1),

P(6) = Q(6)(6-6) +5

⇒ P(6) = Q(6)(0) +5

⇒ P(6) = 5

Therefore, dividing the given polynomial by (x -6) gives quotient Q(x) and remainder 5 then for Q(-6) = 3 , P(-6) = -31and P(6) =5.

The complete question is:

Dividing the polynomial P(x) by x - 6 yields a quotient Q(x) and a remainder of 5. If Q(-6) = 3, find P(-6) and P(6).

Madison spent 3 times as long on her social project as she did on her other project. If she spent a total of 8 hours on he proje
deff fn [24]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Madison spent x hours on her social project,

then the number of hours spent on other project will be 1/3 of x=x/3

Total hours spend on all projects will be the addition of hours spent on social project and hour spent on other project, i.e

x + x/3 = 4x/3

It si given that this is 8 hours, therefore

4x/3=8

Multiplying both sides by 3:

4x=24

Dividing across board by 4:

x= 6 hours
