Find the value of x 12 5 X

Mathematics
1 answer:
steposvetlana [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the side length x is opposite of the right angle, which means that it is the hypotenuse, which will usually be denoted as c.

Set the equation:

a² + b² = c²

let:

a = 5

b = 12

c = x

Plug in the corresponding numbers (& x) to the corresponding variables:

(5)² + (12)² = (x)²

Simplify. First, solve for the power, and then add:

x² = (5²) + (12²)

x² = (5 * 5) + (12 * 12)

x² = 25 + 144

x² =  169

Next, root both sides of the equation:

√x² = √169

x = √169 = √(13 * 13) = 13

x = 13

~

Note the rules, and it should be easier:

30-60-90° = 1 , √3 , 2

45-45-90° = 1 , 1 , √2

Any other measurements use the equation:  a² + b² = c²

Gavyn, Pip and Mark share £102 in a ratio 1:2:3. How much money does each person get?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio , 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 parts

divide the amount by 6 to find the value of one part of the ratio

£102 ÷ 6 = £17 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

2 parts = 2 × £17 = £34

3 parts = 3 × £17 = £51

Gavyn gets £17

Pip gets £34

Mark gets £51

The base of a pyramid has n sides.<br> Write an EXPRESSION for the number of faces of the pyramid.
ser-zykov [4K]
<span>In general, if the pyramid has 'x' sides, then it will have 'x' lateral faces. Total Number of Faces = Number of Base Faces + Number of Lateral Faces. Total Number of Faces = 2 + x. So the formula is F=x%2B2 where "x" is the number of sides that the pyramid has and "F" is the total number of faces.</span>
