<h3>Answer: Angle BDC = 76.3 degrees</h3>

=================================================

Work Shown:

For now focus on triangle ABC. Since this is a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse BC.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(AC)^2 + (AB)^2 = (BC)^2

8^2 + 10^2 = (BC)^2

(BC)^2 = 164

BC = sqrt(164)

BC = 12.806248 approximately

-------------

Move onto triangle ABD. Find the missing side BD through the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(AD)^2 + (AB)^2 = (BD)^2

5^2 + 10^2 = (BD)^2

125 = (BD)^2

(BD)^2 = 125

BD = sqrt(125)

BD = 11.1803399 which is approximate

---------------

Move onto triangle ADC. We'll use the pythagorean theorem again

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(AC)^2 + (AD)^2 = (CD)^2

8^2 + 5^2 = (CD)^2

89 = (CD)^2

(CD)^2 = 89

CD = sqrt(89)

CD = 9.433981 also approximate

---------------

Focus on triangle BCD. We have the following side lengths

  • BC = 12.806248
  • BD = 11.1803399
  • CD = 9.433981

Let

  • side d be opposite angle D, so d = BC = 12.806248
  • side b be opposite angle B, so b = CD = 9.433981
  • side c be opposite angle C, so c = BD = 11.1803399

Note the use of uppercase letters for angles and lowercase letters for side lengths.

We can then use the law of cosines to find the angle we're after

d^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2*b*c*cos(D)

12.806248^2=9.433981^2+11.1803399^2-2*9.433981*11.1803399*cos(D)

163.999987837504=213.999997787893-210.950228380284*cos(D)

-210.950228380284*cos(D) = -50.000009950389

cos(D) = (-50.000009950389)/(-210.950228380284)

cos(D) = 0.237022781792173

cos(D) = arccos(0.237022781792173)

D = 76.2891111084541

D = 76.3

Which equation represents a line that passes through (-2, 4) and has a slope of 2/5
Ronch [10]

An equation represents a line that passes through (-2, 4) and has a slope of 2/5 is y-4 = 2/5(x+2)

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

The equation of a line in point-slope form is expressed as;

y-y1 = m(x - x1)

where

m is the slope

(x1, y1) is any pint on the line

Substitute the given parameter

y - 4 = 2/5(x-(-2))

y-4 = 2/5(x+2)

Hence an equation represents a line that passes through (-2, 4) and has a slope of 2/5 is y-4 = 2/5(x+2)

The tens digit of a certain number is five more than the units digit. The sum of the digits is 9. Find the number.
Leokris [45]
<span>the tens digit = n
</span><span>the units digit = n-5

n + n-5 = 9
2n = 9+5
2n = 14
n = 7  </span>←  the tens digit

the units digit = n-5 = 7 - 5 = 2

maeve likes to make her salads in advance she made 15 salads for 3 days how many salads does she eat per day unit rate
Tju [1.3M]

The number of salads Maeve eats per day if she made 15 salads for 3 days is 5 salads eaten per day.

<h3>Unit rate</h3>

Unit rate refers to the number of units of the first type of quantity corresponding to one unit of the second type of quantity.

  • Number of salads = 15 salads
  • Number of days = 3 days

Unit rate of salad eaten per day = Number of salads ÷ Number of days

= 15 ÷ 3

= 5 salads eaten per day

A salad is a food made primarily of a mixture of raw or cold ingredients, typically vegetables, usually served with a dressing such as vinegar or mayonnaise.

Therefore, the number of salads Maeve eats per day if she made 15 salads for 3 days is 5 salads eaten per day.

KiRa [710]
C)
Area of full triangle
1/2(8)(6)=24cm^2
Area of non shaded triangle
1/2(4)(3)=6cm^2
Area of full minus area of small triangle
24-6=18cm^2

D)
Area of Big rectangle
(4)(12)=48
Area of non shaded triangle
1/2(9)(4)=18
Area of Big rectangle minus non shaded triangle
48-18=30cm^2
