2.) Find the perimeter of an isosceles triangle whose base is 16 cm and whose height is 15 cm.

Mathematics

Otrada [13]3 years ago

Answer:

50 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude from the vertex to the base bisects the base and divides the triangle into 2 right triangles.

Using one of the right triangles with legs 8 and 15 , then hypotenuse h is

h² = 8² + 15² = 64 + 225 = 289 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = \sqrt{289} = 17

The 2 congruent sides of the isosceles triangle are 17 cm

Then the perimeter P is

P  = 17 + 17 + 16 = 50 cm

Find the value of k if the graph of the equation y=kx−4 passes through the point A(−2,6).
neonofarm [45]

y = kx - 4

x =  - 2 \\ y = 6

6 = k( - 2) - 4 \\  6 + 4 =  - 2k \\ 10 =  - 2k \\ k =  \frac{10}{ - 2}  \\ k =  - 5

HEY LOL PLEASE ANSWER THESE. PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU. HELP ME
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

a. ∆ABC ~ ∆A'B'C'

b. Enlargement

c. Scale factor = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a. <A corresponds to <A'

<B corresponds to <B'

<C corresponds to <C',

Therefore, the similarity statement would be: ∆ABC ~ ∆A'B'C'

b. The image of the dilation is an enlargement of the original figure because the side lengths of ∆A'B'C are larger than the corresponding side lengths of ∆ABC.

c. Scale factor = the ratio of the corresponding sides

Thus:

Scale factor = A'B'/AB = B'C'/BC = A'C'/AC

Scale factor = 24/6 = 48/12 = 60/15 = 4

Scale factor = 4

Discuss how logical or illogical it is for people to say they believe something but don't actually live like they believe that t
Helen [10]

Answer:

It is illogical

Step-by-step explanation:

For someone to say they believe something, but then not act like it, means they throw all their values into the trash.  It shows that they cannot truly believe in that thing.  It shows that they are saying they believe in this thing for only the good of themselves.  But when it comes to acting like they believe in something, they throw their 'belief' away to better benefit themselves.
