Step-by-step explanation:
This is a reflection over x-axis.
For the triangle, x is 12 units long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
The hypotenuse is the side which is the longest in the triangle and is always opposite the right angle.
In the given triangle, the hypotenuse is 13 units long. The other two sides measure 5 units and x units.
Step 2:
By substituting the known values, we get



Rounding this off to the nearest hundred, we get that x is 12 units long.
<h3>Answer: 7 goes in the blank space</h3>
The range of values for x is 2 < x < 7
========================================
Explanation:
The hinge theorem says that the larger the opposite side is, the larger the angle will be.
AD = 11, DC = 8
Since AD > DC, this means angle ABD > angle DBC.
--------
angle ABD > angle DBC
20 > 4x-8
20+8 > 4x-8+8 ... add 8 to both sides
28 > 4x
4x < 28 ... flip both sides and the inequality sign
4x/4 < 28/4 ... divide both sides by 4
x < 7
--------
At the same time, the angle 4x-8 cannot be 0 or negative.
So we say 4x-8 > 0. Let's solve this for x.
4x-8 > 0
4x-8+8 > 0+8 ... add 8 to both sides
4x > 8
4x/4 > 8/4 ... divide both sides by 4
x > 2
2 < x ... flip both sides and the inequality sign
--------
We have 2 < x and x < 7. Both of these combine to the compound inequality 2 < x < 7
We can pick any value between 2 and 7 as long as we dont pick x = 2 or we dont pick x = 7.
