What does AD equal? PICTURE INCLUDED* Triangle congruence and similarity.

Mathematics
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

AD = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the two triangles are similar by the SSS (side side side) postulate, the triangles share the same ratios when it comes to their sides.

We know the values for lines DB, EB and CB, therefore we can solve for AB, and subtract DB to find AD

We can solve the problem by solving for x:

\frac{x}{32} =\frac{21}{24}

Cross multiply.

24x = 672

Simplify.

x=28

Subtract the value of DB to find AD.

28-21=7

AD=7

Consider functions f and g below.
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) - g(x) = -9x^2 - 7x + 12 - (3x^2 - 4x - 15)  Remove the brackets

f(x) - g(x) = -9x^2 - 7x  + 12 - 3x^2 + 4x + 15

f(x) - g(x) = -9x^2 - 3x^2 - 7x + 4x + 12 + 15

f(x) - g(x) = -12x^2- 3x + 27

Billy is hiking in Colorado. He walks eastward four miles, then turns $60$ degrees northward and walks six miles. How far is he
nikklg [1K]

He is  2√19 miles far way from starting point.

Suppose Billy starts at point A, turns at point B, and ends at point D, as shown below.

If Billy turns 60◦ northward and walks six miles, then we can draw a 30 − 60 − 90 triangle whose hypotenuse is 6 miles

It follows that Billy traveled 6/2 = 3 miles eastward during these 6 miles, and that he traveled 3√3 miles northward during these 6 miles. In total, Billy traveled 4 + 3 = 7 miles  eastward and 3√ 3 miles northward.

By the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance from his starting point is q:

(7)2 + (3√3)2

=√49 + 27

= √76

= 2√19 .
