From the information given you have:

1) Smaller diagonal of the kite: 16 inches


2) Larger diagonal of the kite: height of one triangle (h1) + height of the other triangle (h2)


3) Calculation of the height of the smaller triangle, h1:


10^2 = (16/2)^2 + (h1)^2 => h1 = √ [10^2 - 8^2] = 6


4) Calculation of the height of the larger triangle, h2


17^2 = (16/2)^2 + (h2)^2 => h2 = √[17^2  - 8^2] = 15


5) Larger diagonal = h1 + h2 = 6 + 15 = 21

Neko [114]

Answer:

for m∠SRQ x =  3

for m∠QRP x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 6x +2. 6 is being multiplied by a number so to find that number we do teh opposite

6x/2 = 3

drop the x then u have x = 3

2. 2x+10. 2 is being muliplied by a number so to find that number we do teh opposite

Solve the inequality
Naily [24]

Answer:

16(1/4x-1/2)>24-2x

Use the distributive property on the left side:

4x -8 > 24-2x

Add 2x to each side:

6x -8 > 24

Add 8 to each side:

6x >32

Divide both sides by 6:

x > 32/6 reduces to 16/3
