Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator

Mathematics
1 answer:
Yakvenalex [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = √(10)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the measure of the side marked x

what we have is an isosceles right triangle since the two acute angles of the right triangle are 45 degrees each

Hence, the other last side will measure x too

Mathematically, according to Pythagoras’; the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Thus;

x^2 + x^2 = (√5)^2

2x^2 = 5

x^2 = 5/2

x = √(5/2)

x = √5/√2

Rationalizing the denominator;

x = (√2 * √5)/(√2 * √2)

x = √10/2

Given:

The equation is

\dfrac{1}{3}x=\dfrac{1}{5}

To find:

The coefficient and reciprocal.

Solution:

We have,

\dfrac{1}{3}x=\dfrac{1}{5}

Here, \dfrac{1}{3} is multiplied with x.

So, the coefficient of x is \dfrac{1}{3}.

To find the reciprocal, we need to interchange numerator and denominator of a fraction.

So, the reciprocal of \dfrac{1}{3} is \dfrac{3}{1}=3

Therefore, the reciprocal is 3.

An astronaut visited mars. his weight on earth was 180 pounds, and his weight on mars was only 72 pounds. he removed a rock with
Anton [14]
The question given above may be answered through the concept of ratio and proportion. The ratio of the man's weight on Earth and Mars should be equal to the ratio of the rock's weight on Earth and Mars. By letting x be the rock's mas on Earth, the equation that would best represent the situation is,
                          180 / 72 = x / 16
The value of x is equal to 40. Thus, the rock weighs 40 pounds on Earth.
