The answer would be 17. It’s a 90° angle and if you do 90-73, you get 17.
Answer:
(C)72.4 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Given an acute triangle in which the longest side measures 30 inches; and the other two sides are congruent.
Consider the attached diagram
AB=BC=x
However to be able to solve for x, we form a right triangle with endpoints A and C.
Since the hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle
Hypotenuse, AC=30 Inches
Using Pythagoras Theorem

Therefore, the smallest possible perimeter of the triangle
Perimeter=2x+30
=2(21.21)+30
=42.42+30
=72.4 Inches (rounded to the nearest tenth)
Answer:
y= - 5/2x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Y=2/5x + 2
Making it perpendicular, the slope will change to it's reciprocal and swap operations (+ becomes -). 2/5 will be -5/2. We already know the y-intercept which is -2, so simply put, the equation in slope-intercept form is y = -5/2x - 2
Benito drew a line with a slope of 3
X+6 = 3x - 12 (right?)
6 = 2x-12
18 = 2x
9 = x
4x-15 = 2x+3
2x-15 = 3
2x = 18
x = 9
Basically, x = 9
