Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
cot(theta) = 1 / tan(theta)
cot(theta) = 1 / -5
cot(theta) = - 0.2
The red arrows mean the lines are parallel. Since all angles are equal, the larger triangle is similar to the smaller one. Then corresponding sides have the same ratio
(4x -2)/9 = (3x+2)/12
x(4/9 -3/12) = (2/12) +(2/9)
x = (7/18)/(7/36) = 2 . . . . . . . . . corresponding to the 3rd selection
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2
(5+x) * 5 = 10^2
Distribute
25 +5x = 100
Subtract 25 from each side
25-25 +5x = 100-25
5x= 75
Divide by 5
5x/5 = 75/5
x = 15
Answer:
Each would equal 10 lbs.
Step-by-step explanation:
60 pounds all together is the weight of 6 boxes, so if you divide 60 by 6, you'll get 10 lbs for each box.
