How would you prove that the triangle below is equilateral?

1 answer:

Find the medians of the triangle (from one angle to the middle of the the opposite side), then make a the other medians. If the medians are bisectors, then you have an equilateral triangle<span />

rectangle A has a length of 24 meters and a width of 20 meters. rectangle B has the same area as rectangle A. the width of recta

blagie [28]

To solve this, first we'll find the area of the rectangle A,

Area=length × width
?=24m×20m
480m=24m×20m
480m squared=area of the rectangle A

now we'll find the width of rectangle B,
"the width of rectangle B is 12 meters less than the width of rectangle A",
20m-12m= 8m
8m=width of rectangle B

finally we'll find the length of rectangle B,
area of the rectangle B= 480msquared
width= 8m
length=? (to find this divide the area by the width)
480÷8=60m
length of the rectangle B=60m

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -7) and (-8, 3)?

avanturin [10]

Answer <u>(assuming it can be in slope-intercept form)</u>:

$y = -\frac{5}{4} x-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, find the slope of the line by using the slope formula, $m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ . Substitute the x and y values of the given points into the formula and solve:

$m = \frac{(3)-(-7)}{(-8)-(0)}\\m = \frac{3+7}{-8-0} \\m = \frac{10}{-8} \\m = -\frac{5}{4}$

So, the slope is $-\frac{5}{4}$ .

2) Now, use the point-slope formula $y-y_1 = m (x-x_1)$ to write the equation of the line in point-slope form. Substitute real values for the $m$ , $x_1$ , and $y_1$ in the formula.

Since $m$ represents the slope, substitute $-\frac{5}{4}$ in its place. Since $x_1$ and $y_1$ represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, choose any one of the given points (either one is fine, it will equal the same thing at the end) and substitute its x and y values into the formula as well. (I chose (0, -7), as seen below.) Then, isolate y to put the equation in slope-intercept form and find the following answer:

$y-(-7) = -\frac{5}{4} (x-(0))\\y + 7 = -\frac{5}{4} x\\y = -\frac{5}{4} x-7$

Find the least common multiple of: 12x^3y^2 and 15x^2y^5

allochka39001 [22]

Answer: $60x^3y^5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Least Common Multiple :The least positive number that is a multiple of two or more numbers.

To find : The least common multiple of: $12x^3y^2$ and $15x^2y^5.$

Since, $12x^3y^2=2\times2\times3\times x^3y^2$

$15x^2y^5=3\times5\times x^2y^5$

The least common multiple of: $12x^3y^2$ and $15x^2y^5.$ = $2\times2\times3\times5\times x^3y^5=60x^3y^5$ [take highest power of x and y ]

Hence, the least common multiple of: $12x^3y^2$ and $15x^2y^5.$ = $60x^3y^5$
