Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment from the vertex to the base is a perpendicular bisector.
Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle on the right.
( x )² + 3² = (
)² , that is
x² + 9 = 45 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
x² = 36 ( multiply both sides by 4 )
x² = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = = 12
Answer:
➩
Step-by-step explanation:
➨ We can also solve by completing both squares, however. Since we can pull out the square root.
➩ Define of Absolute Value/Square Root
➩
Thus, our new equation is ➩
To solve an absolute-value equation, let there be two conditions.
➨ Where x ≥ 0
Move x to another side
➨ Where x < 0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Our understanding of your figure is shown below.
The question says the "shortest side" and the "width" have the same dimension. If the "width" is a reference to "height 6 yards", then it seems the "shortest side" is 6 yards. Since the slant sides are longer than the height, the "shortest side" is also the "short base."
The short base is 6 yards.
__
The long base overhangs the short base by 1 yard on either end, so it is a total of 2 yards longer than the short base. It it 6+2 = 8 yards long.
The long base is 8 yards.
