Given:
The base of the given triangle has two part:
Left( left side of the hypotenuse) = 25
Right ( right side of the hypotenuse) = x
The altitude (h) = 60
To find the value of x.
Formula:
By Altitude rule we know that, the altitude of a triangle is mean proportional between the right and left part of the hypotenuse,
Now,
Putting,
left = 25, altitude = 60 and right = x we get,
or, [ by cross multiplication]
or,
or,
Hence,
The value of x is 144.
Answer:
Part a) The grade is 3.2%
Part b) This grade meet the rapid-transit rail standard
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)
In this problem we have
so
convert to percentage
Round to the nearest tenth of a percent
therefore
This grade meet the rapid-transit rail standard
