Given:

The vertices of ΔWXY are W(-10, 4), X(-3, -1), and Y(-5, 11).

To find:

Which type of triangle is ΔWXY by its sides.

Solution:

Distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Using distance formula, we get

WX=\sqrt{(-3-(-10))^2+(-1-4)^2}

WX=\sqrt{(-3+10)^2+(-5)^2}

WX=\sqrt{(7)^2+(-5)^2}

WX=\sqrt49+25}

WX=\sqrt{74}

Similarly,

XY=\sqrt{\left(-5-\left(-3\right)\right)^2+\left(11-\left(-1\right)\right)^2}=2\sqrt{37}

WY=\sqrt{\left(-5-\left(-10\right)\right)^2+\left(11-4\right)^2}=\sqrt{74}

Now,

WX=WY

So, triangle is an isosceles triangles.

and,

WX^2+WY^2=(\sqrt{74})^2+(\sqrt{74})^2

WX^2+WY^2=74+74

WX^2+WY^2=148

WX^2+WY^2=(2\sqrt{37})^2

WX^2+WY^2=WY^2

So, triangle is right angled triangle.

Therefore, the ΔWXY is an isosceles right angle triangle.

Rewrite the equation by completing the square. 4 x^{2} -12 x +9 = 04x 2 −12x+9=0
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

  (2x -3)^2 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

In this particular instance, the square is already complete. The rewrite is to show that.

  (2x -3)^2 = 0

__

In the general case, ...

  (ax +b)^2 = a^2x^2 +2abx +b^2

Comparing this form to the given left-side expression, we see that ...

  a = 2, b = -3

So, the trinomial is already a perfect square trinomial.

What number is 45% of 60, as well as 8 is 0.5% of what number?
JulsSmile [24]
Hi!

We can set up proportions to solve these.

1. \frac{x}{60}  \frac{45}{100}

2. \frac{8}{x}  \frac{0.5}{100}

Cross multiply to solve for x

1. 60 x 45 = 2700
2700/100 = 27

2. 8 x 100 = 800
800/0.5 = 1600
(Tip: dividing by 0.5 is the same as multiplying by 2)

The answers are
1. 27
And
2. 1600

Hope this helps! :)
