Answer:
The base is 4cm and the height is 5cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a solve the system question. Call H the height of the triangle and B the base. The question tells us:
and
Sub the first equation into the second (as H is already isolated). You will end up with a quadratic equation - solve that any way you wish (e.g. quadratic formula). I've provided the factored form below which shows you the roots:
In this question, we take B=4. You can't have a negative side length so the other answer is eliminated. Now sub the value for B into either of the original equations. I'll use the first, again because H is already isolated:
54 = 2(4x-3) + 2(x)
54 = 8x-6 + 2x
60 = 10x
6 = x
so two sides are 6 meters, and the other 2 sides are 21 meters
Answer:
So i just used the calculator to help me find the two co exisiting lines and then worked my way up to find the nearest decimal to fit the equation for the missing parablar length which was parallel to find the cointerior angle which lead me to get a decimal number involving an ordinary form number.
