<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The length of BC is </em><em>8 units.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

Mid-Point Theorem-

The line segment connecting the midpoints of  two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is congruent to one half of the third side.

As given,

AD = DB, so D is the mid point of AB

FA = FC, so F is the mid point of AC

Hence, DF is the line segment connecting the midpoints of  two sides of a triangle.

Applying the theorem,

BC = 2DF = 2×4 = 8 units

Answer: BC= 8 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure m, we have a Δ ABC in which point D and F are the mid point of sides AB and AC respectively .

We know that the Mid - segment theorem says that a line segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and it should be equal to one-half of the third side.

Therefore , For the given situation , we have

DF=\dfrac{1}{2}BC\\\\\Rightarrow\ BC= 2 DF

Since DF = 4 units [Given ]

Then,  BC= 2(4)= 8\text{ units}

Hence, BC= 8 units.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1). In ΔABC,

   For angle A as a reference angle,

   Opposite side of ∠A → BC

   Adjacent side of ∠A → AC

   Hypotenuse → AB

2). By using tangent ratio in ΔYWZ,

    tan(72°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

    tan(72°) = \frac{12}{x}

    x = \frac{12}{\text{tan}(72)}

    x = 3.899

    x ≈ 3.9

3). By using sine rule in ΔKNM,

    tan(x°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

    tan(x) = \frac{20}{58}

    x = \text{tan}^{-1}(\frac{20}{58} )

    x = 19.03

    x ≈ 19.0°

4). By applying cosine ratio in ΔJKF,

    tan(70°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

    tan(70) = \frac{60}{x}

    x = \frac{60}{\text{tan}(70)}

    x = 21.838

    x ≈ 21.8

What is the constant in the algebraic expression to represent the patter below??
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The constant in the algebraic expression to represent the pattern below is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Imortant Tip:

  • An Arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' which can be determined by computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

Given the pattern

15,11,7,3,-1,...

computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

11-15=-4,\:\quad \:7-11=-4,\:\quad \:3-7=-4,\:\quad \:-1-3=-4

The difference between all the adjacent terms of the pattern is the same which is

d=-4

Hence, the given pattern represents the Arithmetic sequence.

Therefore, the constant in the algebraic expression to represent the pattern below is 4.

Write a mixed number that is equivalent to 16/3.
mars1129 [50]
A mixed number is an integer--whole number--in front of a fraction. To calculate this, you have to divide the numerator by the denominator and put the remainder over the denominator. 

Since 3 goes into 16 wholly 5 <em />times with 1 left over, 16/3 = 5 1/3.

Hope this helps!
