Answer:
length= √[ (a-c)^2 + (b-d)^2 ]
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
m∠B = 31°
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the measure of angle ACB by subtracting its supplement from 180 degrees:
180 - 113 = 77
m∠ACB = 77°
Then subtract both m∠A and m∠ACB from 180 degrees, since the interior angles of a triangle always add to 180°:
m∠B = 180° - 72° - 77°
m∠B = 31°
To find the common ratio, divide the second term by the first term
-10 / 2 = -5
to find each term in a geometric sequence, u multiply by the common ratio.....
2 * -5 = -10
-10 * -5 = 50
50 * -5 = - 250 <== ur next term
Answer:
9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Do the question algebraically, represented by this equation:
let x be the shorter piece
x + (x + 8) = 26 (longer piece is 8 units longer)
Remove brackets
x + x + 8 = 26 Combine like terms
2x + 8 = 26 Start isolating "x"
2x + 8 - 8 = 26 - 8 Subtract 8 from both sides
2x = 18
2x/2 = 18/2 Divide both sides by 2
x = 9 shorter piece
The shorter piece would be 9 inches.
If you needed the longer piece too:
longer piece = x + 8
x + 8
= 9 + 8
= 17
The longer piece would be 17 inches.
Check your answer:
Longer + Shorter = 26 Substitute the lengths
17 + 9 = 26 Add
26 = 26 same number
LS = RS left side equals right side
The answer is correct.
