9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally.

  BD/BA = CD/CA

  (x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12

  3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . multiply by 24 (the least common denominator)

  3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

  12 = x +2 . . . . . . . subtract 3x

  10 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

Then the length of BD is ...

  BD = x +4

  BD = 10 +4 . . . . substitute the value of x

  BD = 14

1. The ratio for a 30-60-90 triangle is  x:x√3:2x 
x is the shortest leg  so 2*x =2*5 = 10
2. the ratio of a 45-45-90 triangle is x:x:x√2
x is one leg  so x * √2 = 5*√2 = 5√2

PLEASE HELP<br> Solve. x^2+9x+2=0
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using completing the square method

x²+9x+2=0

x²+9x = -2   (complete the square by adding (9/2)² to both sides)

x²+9x + (9/2)² = -2 + (9/2)²

( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (9/2)²

( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (81/4)

( x + (9/2) )² = 73/4

x + (9/2)  = ± √(73/4)

x + (9/2)  = ± √(73) / 2

x = -(9/2) ± √(73) / 2  (factorize out (1/2) )

x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)
