7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

This figure is not the best, but I'll try my best here

Since BC is parallel to BE (BC is part of BE) and BA is part of BD, two sides are  parallel, making two angles congruent and the triangles therefore similar.

Since BA correlates to BD (they are parallel), we can use the knowledge that BA is 7 and BD is 42 to find the scaling factor to be 42/7 =6 from ABC to DBE. Since BC correlates to BE, BC = 10, and the scaling factor is 6, BC*6=BE= 60 = height

What is the length of BC​
elena55 [62]

Answer:

BC = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to use triangle BAD to find BD,

BD is the hypotenuse, so use pythagorean theorem...

      (√23)² + (√13)² = (BD)²

            23 + 13 = (BD)²

               36 = (BD)²

                  6 = BD

Now BD is the hypotenuse of triangle BCD, so use pythagorean theorem agian to find BC

     (4√2)² + (BC)² = 6²

            32 + (BC)² = 36

                   (BC)² = 4

                        BC = 2

How do you know which direction to move on a number line when adding integers?​
Doss [256]

Step-by-step explanation:

To add integers on the number line, you move forward, and you face right (the positive direction) when you add a positive number. As with positive numbers, to add negative integers on the number line, you move forward, but you face left (the negative direction) when you add a negative number.

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, write in simplest radical form.
Arlecino [84]
Answer:

9

Explanation:

9 root 2 = root 81 x root 2 = root 162
Root 162 = 12.7279220614
9^2 + b^2 = 12.7279220614^2
81 + b^2 = 162
b^2 = 81
Root both

Suppose an experiment has 3 stages: A, B, and C. If stage A has 6 outcomes, stage B has 4 outcomes, and stage C has 3 outcomes.
zimovet [89]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

Stage A has 6 outcomes, then B has 4 and C has 3

Take for example only 1 outcome of A, it will have 4 outcomes of B and each outcome of B will have 3 outcomes.

Then a single outcome of A has a total of 12 outcomes (4*3)

Writing it in a way A, B, C:

1,1,1

1,1,2

1,1,3

1,2,1

1,2,2

1,2,3

1,3,1

1,3,2

1,3,3

1,4,1

1,4,2

1,4,3

This is only taking in consideration 1 outcome of A, A has a total of 6 outcomes.

The total of outcomes in the experiment = 6*12=72
