Answer:

The length of the rectangle is 12cm and the area of the rectangle is 60cm2.

Explanation:

By definition, the angles of a rectangle are right. Therefore, drawing a diagonal creates two congruent right triangles. The diagonal of the rectangle is the hypotenuse of the right triangle. The sides of the rectangle are the legs of the right triangle. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the unknown side of the right triangle, which is also the unknown length of the rectangle.

Recall that the Pythagorean Theorem states that the sun of the squares of the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. a2+b2=c2

52+b2=132

25+b2=169

25−25+b2=169−25

b2=144

√b2=√144

b=±12

Since the length of the side is a measured distance, the negative root is not a reasonable result. So the length of the rectangle is 12 cm.

The area of a rectangle is given by multiplying the width by the length.

A=(5cm)(12cm)

A=60cm2

What is the square root of 50 rounded to the nearest hundredth?

tamaranim1 [39]

Let's write an inequality, such as follows: x < sqrt(50) < y. Square both sides of the equation. We get x^2 < 50 < y^2. Obviously, x is between 7 and 8. Also notice, that for integers a,b, (ab)^2/b^2, equals a^2. So let's try values, like 7.1. Using the previous fact, (7.1)^2, equals (71)^2/100. So, (7.1)^2, equals 50.41. Thus, our number is between 7 and 7.1. We find, with a bit of experimentation, that the square root of 50, is 7.07.

Can someone help me with this page please I have an exam tomorrow, I need to remember the answers unfortunately :)

Answer:

1. B. ∠2 and ∠6

2. 50°

3. Option 1, Option 5, and Option 6.

4. 133°

<u>Work for question 4:</u>

180°-47° = 133°

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate means the angles are on different sides of the transversal (horizontal line in this case). Interior means they are between the parallel lines (lines a and b in this case). (∠2 and ∠6) and (∠3 and ∠7) are the alternate interior angles but only the first is an option.

∠10 = ∠8+∠7 (corresponding angles so they are congruent)

∠10 is 140° and ∠8 is a right angle

140-90 = 50

∠7 = 50°

∠4 = 50° (∠7 and ∠4 are vertical angles so they are congruent)

Sense all angles of a triangle add up to 180 and the ratio of angles is 3:3:6 the we can find the angle with the equation x+x+2x=180

Simplify.

4x=180

Solve by dividing 4 from both sides

x=45

so it is a 45, 45, 90 triangle. (right triangle because the 90 and icoceles because other 2 angles are congruent so option 5 is correct)

m∠J= 45°

m∠K= 45° (Option 1 is correct)

m∠L= 90° (Option 6 is correct)

I honestly don't see how you can solve this without making assumptions so I will make assumptions.

Assuming the whole figure is symmetrical vertically ∠1 is congruent to the same spot on the right side of the shape. This angle would be supplementary to the angle of the angle outside of the shape adjacent on the right making the angle (which is corresponding, therefore congruent to ∠2) 133°.
