Using Triangle Similarity Theorems (6)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fantom [35]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

DC = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on triangle similarity theorem, we would have the following equation:

\frac{AD}{AC} = \frac{AE}{AB}

Plug in the values

\frac{9}{9 + DC} = \frac{12}{12 + 4}

\frac{9}{9 + DC} = \frac{12}{16}

\frac{9}{9 + DC} = \frac{3}{4}

Cross multiply

3(9 + DC) = 9×4

27 + 3DC = 36

Subtract 27 from each side

3DC = 36 - 27

3DC = 9

Divide both sides by 3

DC = 9/3

DC = 3

What is the volume of this pyramid? 945 cm³ 1260 cm³ 1890 cm³ 2520 cm³ A pyramid with a right triangular base. The right triangu
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The volume of the pyramid is 1,260\ cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the triangular pyramid is equal to

V=\frac{1}{3}BH

where

B is the area of the triangular base

H is the height of the pyramid

step 1

Find the area of the base B

B=\frac{1}{2}bh

we have

b=14\ cm

h=18\ cm

substitute

B=\frac{1}{2}(14)(18)=126\ cm^{2}

step 2

Find the volume

we have

B=126\ cm^{2}

H=30\ cm

substitute

V=\frac{1}{3}BH

V=\frac{1}{3}(126)(30)=1,260\ cm^{3}

How do I solve this using the system of equations?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

length: 16 m; width: 13 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Write each of the statements as an equation. You know that the formula for the perimeter is ...

P = 2(L +W)

so one of your equations is this one with the value of P filled in:

• 2L + 2W = 58

The other equation expresses the relation between L and W:

• L = W +3 . . . . . . . . the length is 3 meters greater than the width

There are many ways to solve such a system of equations. Since you have an expression for L, it is convenient to substitute that into the first equation to get ...

2(W+3) +2W = 58

4W +6 = 58 . . . . . . . simplify

4W = 52 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 6

W = 13 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4

We can use the expression for L to find its value:

L = 13 +3 = 16

The length is 16 meters; the width is 13 meters.
