If AB=7x, CB=5x+8 and BD AC what is the length of CB

Mathematics
1 answer:
seropon [69]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 4

CB = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC,

AB = CB..... (given)

Therefore,

7x = 5x + 8

7x - 5x = 8

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

CB = 5x + 8 = 5*4 + 8 = 20 + 8 = 28

What’s the area?? <br><br><br><br><br> BTW THE ANSWER IS NOT 78
tangare [24]

Answer:

She shaded area?

12 x 10 = 120

6 x 7 = 42

42 divided by 2 = 21

Now we subtract both areas:

120 - 21 = 99 of the shaded region.

Is 15,36,39 a right triangle
NeTakaya

Answer:

Yes, is a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if you can build a right triangle with those sides we have to make the following equality

h² = l1² + l2²

The hypotenuse is always the longest side so it should be 39

we check the equality of the equation

39² = 15² + 36²

1521 = 225 + 1296

1521 = 1521

Equality was fulfilled so it is a right triangle

What two numbers multiply to 44 and add up to 12?
djverab [1.8K]
This pattern of question is always coming up. Since we can't easily guess, then let us set up simultaneous equation for the statements.

let the two numbers be x and y.

Multiply to 44.      x*y = 44 ..........(a)

Add up to 12.      x + y = 12 .........(b)

From (b)

y = 12 - x .......(c)

Substitute (c) into (a)

x*y = 44

x*(12 - x) = 44   

12x - x² = 44

-x² + 12x = 44

-x² + 12x - 44 = 0.       

Multiply both sides by -1

-1(-x² + 12x - 44) = -1*0

x² - 12x + 44 = 0.   

This does not look factorizable, so let us just use quadratic formula

comparing to ax² + bx + c = 0, x² - 12x + 44 = 0,  a = 1, b = -12, c = 44 

x = (-b + √(b² - 4ac)) /2a   or (-b - √(b² - 4ac)) /2a


x = (-(-12) + √((-12)² - 4*1*44) )/ (2*1)    

x = (12 + √(144 - 176) )/ 2

x = (12 + √-32 )/ 2

√-32 = √(-1 *32) = √-1 * √32 = i * √(16 *2) = i*√16 *√2 = i*4*√2 = 4i√2

Where i is a complex number.  Note the equation has two values. We shall include the second, that has negative sign before the square root.

x = (12 + √-32 )/ 2      or     (12 - √-32 )/ 2   

x = (12 + 4i√2 )/ 2              (12 - 4i√2 )/ 2 

x = 12/2 + (4i√2)/2                12/2 - (4i√2)/2

x = 6 + 2i√2            or         6 - 2i√2

Recall equation (c):

y = 12 - x, When x = 6 + 2i√2,  y = 12 - (6 + 2i√2) = 12 - 6 - 2i√2 = 6 - 2i√2

When x = 6 - 2i√2,  y = 12 - (6 - 2i√2) = 12 - 6 + 2i√2 = 6 + 2i√2


x = 6 + 2i√2,  y = 6 - 2i√2

x = 6 - 2i√2,  y = 6 + 2i√2

Therefore the two numbers that multiply to 44 and add up to 12 are:

6 + 2i√2 and 6 - 2i√2

Find the inner product for (-8,2) (4.5,18) and state whether the vectors are perpendicular.
Anna71 [15]

Answer: 0; Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

-8 x 4.5 = -36

2 x 18 = 36

-36 + 36 = 0

since the product is zero, the vectors are perpendicular
