Find WX. Assume that segments which appear to be tangent are tangent.
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Tangent from the point outside the circle are equal
WX = XY
7x - 29 = 2x + 16 {Add 29 to both sides}
7x = 2x + 16 +29
7x = 2x + 45 {Subtract 2x from both sides}
7x - 2x = 45
5x = 45 {Divide both sides by 5}
x = 45/5
x = 9
WX = 7x - 29
= 7*9 - 29
= 63 - 29
WX = 34

Lets assume the sides of the isosceles triangle are:
Side A: x
Side B: x
Base: x/2
x+x+x/2= 46.8cm
2x+x/2=46.8cm
4x+x=93.6
5x=93.6
x= 18.72
Side A: 18.72cm
Side B: 18.72cm
Base: 9.36cm
The base of the largest triangular flag Sara can make is 9.36cm.
2x+x/2= 46.8cm
Answer: 20inch
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Pythagoras theorem:-
25^2 = 15^2 + x^2 where x = the width of the screen.
625 = 225 + x^2
x = √(625 - 225) = √400
= = 20 ins
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x+4)=36
Divide each side by 3
3/3 (x+4)=36/3
x+4 = 12
Subtract 4 from each side
x+4-4 = 12-4
x = 8
