Justification Step 1: Let a = b. Step 2: Then a^2 = ab , Step 3: a^2 + a^2 = a^2 + ab , Step 4: 2a^2=a^2 + ab, Step 5: 2a^2 - 2ab = a^2 + ab - 2ab, Step 6: and 2a^2 - 2a^b = a^2 + ab - 2ab . Step 7: This can be written as 2(a^2 - ab) = 1(a^2 - ab) , Step 8: and cancelling the (a^2 - ab) from both sides gives 1 = 2.

"In the 45°-45°-90° triangle above, r = 10. Find the other two lengths.

Basile [38]

We are given a right triangle that has angles of 45°-45°-90°. This would indicate that the triangle is an isosceles type. We can use some trigonemetric functions to solve for the other legs. We do as follows:

sin 45 = p / 10

p = 5√2

cos 45 = q /10

q = 5√2

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Please help top and bottom.

1. Perimeter
22a + 2(6a + 8) -4 = p

[I got 22a from 12a + 10a]

2. If p = 250, what is a?

22a + 2(6a + 8) - 4 = 250
Distributive property
22a + 12a + 16 - 4 = 250
Add like terms
34a + 12 = 250
Subtract 12 by both sides
34a = 238
Divide 34 by both sides
a = 7

Express 33 1/2% as fraction

First you have to multiply 2x33 which is 66 then you have to add 1 which is 67 so the answer would be 67/2 I don’t know about the percent sign though
