Answer:

The measure of AB is 29

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>If a line is drawn from a vertex of a triangle perpendicular to the opposite side to this vertex and bisects it, then </em><em>the sides joining this vertex are equal in lengths</em>

In Δ ABD

∵ Line AC ⊥ side BD

∵ BC = BD = 15

∴ C is the mid-point of The side BD

∴ Line AC is a perpendicular bisector of side BD

→ By using the rule above

∴ AB = AD

∵ AB = 5x - 11

∵ AD = 3x + 5

→ Equate them

∴ 5x - 11 = 3x + 5

→ Add 11 to both sides

∵ 5x - 11 + 11 = 3x + 5 + 11

∴ 5x = 3x + 16

→ Subtract 3x from both sides

∵ 5x - 3x = 3x - 3x + 16

∴ 2x = 16

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 8

→ Substitute the value x in the expression of side AB

∵ AB = 5(8) - 11

∴ AB = 40 - 11

∴ AB = 29

∴ The measure of AB is 29

Complete each of the ratios on the table show calculations
arsen [322]

Answer:

From left to right:

2, 4, 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the one column which is completed, determine the ratio of yellow to blue by reducing to lowest terms.

yellow to blue = 8 to 16

8 and 16 are both divisible by 8. 8/8 = 1 and 16/8 = 2

8 to 16 = 1 to 2

This means there is half as much yellow paint as there is blue paint. If said backwards, there is double the amount of blue paint as there is yellow paint.

In the first two columns, yellow paint is blue paint divided by 2.

4/2 = 2

8/2 = 4

In the last column, blue paint is yellow paint times 2.

16 X 2= 32

All of the ratios yellow to blue are:

2 to 4

4 to 8

8 to 16

16 to 32
