Answer;

5. 22°

6. 74°

Step-by-step explanation:

5. Since rectangle JKLM has two equal diagonals that intersect each other, therefore JN = MN.

If JN = MN therefore:

m<NMJ = m<NJM

Thus:

3x + 38 = 7x - 2

Solve for x. Collect like terms

3x - 7x = -38 - 2

-4x = - 40

Divide both sides by -4

x = 10

✔️Find m<NMJ

m<NMJ = 7x - 2

Plug in the value of x

m<NMJ = 7(10) - 2 = 70 - 2

m<NMJ = 68°

✔️Find m<NML;

m<NML = 90 - 68° (Complimentary angles)

m<NML = 22°

6. Diagonal of a rhombus bisects teach vertex angle, this means that <U is divided into two equal parts. Therefore:

10x - 23 = 3x + 19

Solve for x. Collect like terms

10x - 3x = 23 + 19

7x = 42

Divide both sides by 7

x = 6

✔️Find m<RST:

m<SUT = m<RST (opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent)

Thus,

m<SUT = (10x - 23) + (3x + 19)

Plug in the value of x

m<SUT = (10(6) - 23) + (3(6) + 19)

= (60 - 23) + (18 + 19)

= 37 + 37

m<SUT = 74°

Also, m<RST = 74°

Which expression is equivalent to 24 Superscript one-third?

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is: $(24)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

Recall that 24=3*8

$\implies(24)^{\frac{1}{3}}=(8*3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

Recall again that:

$(a*b)^n=a^n*b^n$

$\implies (8*3)^{\frac{1}{3}}=(8)^{\frac{1}{3}}*(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\implies (8*3)^{\frac{1}{3}}=(2^3)^{\frac{1}{3}}*(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\implies (8*3)^{\frac{1}{3}}=2^{3*\frac{1}{3}}*(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\implies (8*3)^{\frac{1}{3}}=2*(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

We rewrite in radical form to obtain

$\implies (8*3)^{\frac{1}{3}}=2\sqrt[3]{3}$

A triangle with two vertices located at (5, −8) and (5, 4) has an area of 48 square units. Determine one possible location of th

RoseWind [281]

Answer:x=1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Two points co-ordinates are given

A=(5,-8)

B=(5,4)

let other point be C =(x,y)

Area of triangle is given by

$A=\begin{vmatrix}5& -8&1\\5& 4&1\\x& y&1\end{vmatrix}$

$A=5\left ( 4-y\right )+8\left ( 5-x\right )+1\left ( 5y-4x\right )$

A=20-5y+40-8x+5y-4x

A=60-8x

and A=48 square unit

48=60-8x

x=1.5

As area is independent of y therefore at x=1.5 any value of y will give area of 48 square unit
