Mathematics
1 answer:
vekshin12 years ago
4 0

Answer:

y = 6 \sqrt{3}  \: units

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of y, first we need to find the length of the perpendicular dropped from one of the vertices of the triangle to its opposite side.

By geometric mean theorem:

Length of the perpendicular

=\sqrt{9\times 3}

=\sqrt{27}\: units

Next, by Pythagoras theorem:

{y}^{2}  =  {9}^{2}  +  {( \sqrt{27} )}^{2}  \\  \\  {y}^{2}  = 81 + 27 \\  \\  {y}^{2}  = 108 \\  \\ y =  \sqrt{108}  \\  \\ y =  \sqrt{36 \times 3}  \\  \\ y =  \sqrt{ {6}^{2}  \times 3}  \\  \\ y = 6 \sqrt{3}  \: units

dezoksy [38]
1/18 is left. Thomas has 1/18 left of his book. How? What denominator can 9&6 relate to? 54? Sure, but it could be lower. How about 18? Ok. We have 18 because 9x2 and 6x3 both equal 18... 2/9 becomes 4/18 because 18 divided by 9 is 2. You multiply 2 with the two from 2/9. 1/6 becomes 3/18 because 18 divided by 6 is 3. You then multiply 3 with the one from 1/6. Put it together and TA-DA... Your answer is 1/18

Let's write the left hand side as a negative power, and 9 as a power of 3:

3^-^k=3^2 At this point, for the equality to still stand, the exponents have to be equal:

-k = 2 \rightarrow k=-2
