Since the shape is a square, it has 90° angles.
if cut in half, it creates a 45-45-90 triangle.
using this, you can use the ratio of 1:sqrt2 to find x. so the ratio would be x:6 to 1:sqrt2.
divide 6 by sqrt2 to find x, and then rationalize for it to become 6sqrt2/2, which would simplify even further to 3sqrt2
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Do lulus way. If you change the angles, you will not have a pentagon anymore. If you subtract, it wouldn’t be the same ratio:)
To solve this you must use the rules of PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)
First we have parentheses.
-4(3 - 1) + 2
3 - 1 = 2
-4(2) + 2
We have no exponents so go on to multiplication
-4(2) + 2
-4 * 2 = -8
-8 + 2
No division so go to addition
-8 + 2
When adding a positive number with a negative number you will act as if you are subtracting the two numbers, then take the sign of the largest number (disregarding the signs). In this case the largest number is 8 and its sign is negative. Your answer will have a negative sign.
-6
