Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline{ \underline{ \text{Given : }}}$

Perpendicular ( P ) = VT = 2
Base ( b ) = PT
$\theta = \tt{60 \degree}$

$\underline{ \underline{ \text{Solution}}} :$

$\tt{ \tan(60 \degree) = \frac{perpendicualar}{base}}$

⟶ $\tt{ \sqrt{3} = \frac{2}{PT}}$

⟶ $\tt{ \sqrt{3} \: PT= 2}$

⟶ $\tt{PT = \frac{2}{ \sqrt{3}} }$

⟶ $\tt{PT= \boxed{\tt{ \frac{2 \sqrt{3} }{{3} }}}}$

Hope I helped ! ♡

. Write the following expression in factored form using the greatest common factor.<br> 50a3 + 10a2

Tanya [424]

The factors of 50a³ are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50,
   and their products with a, a² and a³ .

The factors of 10a² are 1, 2, 5, 10,
    and their products with 'a' and a² .

Their common factors are 1, 2, 5, 10,
   and their products with 'a' and a².

Their greatest common factor is 10a² .

(Another way to spot it, easily, is to remember this helpful factoid:

   If the smaller number is a factor of the larger number,
   then the smaller number is their greatest common factor.

Using the greatest common factor, then . . .

   50a³ + 10a² =   10a²(5a + 1) .

Triangle ABC is transformed to create triangle MNL?

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The transformation is rigid because the corresponding side lengths and angles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have congruent triangles (not similar triangles), they will have to have the same length and angles throughout your transformation. Therefore, our answer is the 1st Option.

The 4th term of an arithmetic sequence is 12 and the 8th term is 36. Find the 17th term of the sequence.

Blizzard [7]

Answer: 90

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the nth term of a sequence is given as :

$t_{n}$ = a + ( n - d )

Where a is the first term

d is the common difference and

n is the number of terms

This means that the 4th term of an arithmetic sequence will have the formula :

$t_{4}$ = a + 3d

And the 4th term has been given to be , 12 ,substituting into the formula we have

12 = a + 3d .............................. equation 1

Also substituting for the 8th term , we have

36 = a + 7d .............................. equation 2

Combining the two equations , we have

a + 3d = 12 ................... equation 1

a + 7d = 36 ------------ equation 2

Solving the system of linear equation by substitution method , make a the subject of formula from equation 1 , that is

a = 12 - 3d ................... equation 3

substitute a = 12 - 3d into equation 2 , equation 2 then becomes

12 - 3d + 7d = 36

12 + 4d = 36

subtract 12 from both sides

4d = 36 - 12

4d = 24

divide through by 4

d = 6

substitute d = 6 into equation 3 to find the value of a, we have

a = 12 - 3d

a = 12 - 3 ( 6)

a = 12 - 18

a = -6

Therefore , the 17th term of the sequence will be :

$t_{17}$ = a + 16d

$t_{17}$ = -6 + 16 (6)

$t_{17}$ = -6 + 96

$t_{17}$ = 90

Therefore : the 17th term of the sequence is 90
