This is not factorable. It can be easily tested using the radicand expression of the quadratic equation. (Perfect square= Factorable, No Perfect= Not Factorable.)
For this case by similarity of triangles we can use the following relationship:
(x) / (9) = (5) / (15)
We clear the value of x:
x = ((5) / (15)) * (9)
Rewriting:
x = (1/3) * (9)
x = 3
Answer:
The value of x for this case is:
x = 3
3 is incorrect, should be 28.9
16^2 + 18^2 = EG^2
256 + 324
580 = EG^2
EG ≈ 24.08
16^2 + 24.08^2 = AG^2
256 + 580 = AG^2
836 = AG^2
AG ≈ 28.9
5 is incorrect:
The base is 8.
Draw an altitude the base.
Since the triangle is isoceles, it divides the base in half.
Half of that base is 4.
Two right triangles have been formed with one leg 4 and hypotenuse 8.
4^2 + b^2 = 8^2
16 + b^2 = 64
b^2 = 48
b ≈ 6.93
The height of the triangle is 6.93, the base is 8.
A = bh/2 = 8*6.93/2 ≈ 27.7 ≈ 28
