Find the missing length

Mathematics
1 answer:
jasenka [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For this you will have to use pythagoras’ theorem.

The formula for the shorter side of this triangle is u²=c²-b² (or in this case u²=17²-8²).

17²=289

8²=64

The formula becomes u²=289-64 or u²=225

Then to find u on its own you have to square root 225.

The square root of 225 is 15.

How can you determine congurence and similarity
leonid [27]
Here you go :) AA (Angle-Angle) If two pairs of corresponding angles in a pair of triangles are congruent, then the triangles are similar. We know this because if two angle pairs are the same, then the third pair must also be equal. When the three angle pairs are all equal, the three pairs of sides must also be in proportion.

Please HELP!!!!!!!!!
DaniilM [7]

1.

Calculate the sum

5x - 10 + 7 = 65 - 20x + 32

Move terms

5x - 3 = 97 - 20x

Collect the like terms and calculate

5x + 20x = 97 +3

Divide both sides by 25

25x = 100

X= 4 ANSWER

I skipped some steps because it would be too long :/

2.

Multiply parenthesis by 8

20x>8(4x - 5) -20

Calculate

20x>32x - 40 - 20

Move variable to the left

20x>32x-60

Collect like terms

20x - 32x > -60

Divide both sides by -12

-12x>-60

Q3. In a hydraulic lift, a 1400 N force is applied to a 0.5 m2 piston. Calculate the minimum surface area of the large piston to
blondinia [14]

Answer:

1.8m^2 approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P1= 1400N

A1=0.5m^2

P2=5000 N

A2=??

Let us apply the formula to calculate the Area A2

P1/A1= P2/A2

substitute

1400/0.5= 5000/A2

cross multiply

1400*A2= 5000*0.5

1400*A2= 2500

A2= 2500/1400

A2= 1.78

Hence the Area is 1.8m^2 approx
