Two boards, one four inches wide and the other six inches wide, are nailed together to form an X. The angle at which they cross

is 60 degrees. If this structure is painted and the boards are separated what is the area of the unpainted region on the four-inch board? (The holes caused by the nails are negligible.) Express your answer in simplest radical form.

Answer:

The area of the unpainted region on the four inch board = 160·√3 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have that the boards are crossing each other on their flat sides Therefore, when the boards are separated, the area of the unpainted region is the area of a parallelogram

The dimensions of the formed parallelogram are;

Interior angles = 60° and 120° (adjacent angles of a parallelogram)

Height, h of parallelogram formed = 4 inches

From the angle of crossing of the parallelogram, we have;

Angle between the width or perpendicular cross section of the 6 inches board and the angle of crossing of the two boards = 90° - 60° = 30°

Therefore, length of base, b of the parallelogram formed by the unpainted region is given as follows;

b = \frac{60}{cos(30)}  = 40\cdot \sqrt{3} \ inches

Therefore, the area of the parallelogram = b × h = 4 × 40·√3 = 160·√3 in.²

Hence, the area of the unpainted region on the four inch board = 160·√3 in.².

Express the statement "A rectangular field with an area of 120m' has it length 12mn longer than the width" as quadratic equation
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The quadratic equation is x^2 -12x -120 = 0

where x represents the length of the field

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to make an expression in terms of a quadratic equation;

Let the length of the field be x mm , then the width will be (x-12) mm

Mathematically , the area of the field will be L * B

Thus;

x * (x-12) = 120

That gives;

x^2 -12x = 120

x^2 -12x -120 = 0

podryga [215]
Model <span>

When making a guess and retesting this information, a theory or <u>model</u> may be formed which explains why something has occurred or what it may look like. Models are a representation of a certain situations that has occurred. These models can provide and amplify a clearer perception and comprehension of how and what processes are involved in an occurred phenomenon. And by that said, it can change and be modified depending on which factor catalyzed the alterations. </span>

22 8(11 + 2r) = 126r + 3
natulia [17]

8(11 + 2r) = 126r + 3​

first open the parenthesis

88 + 16r = 126r + 3

88 - 3 = 126r - 16 r

85 = 110r

divide both-side of the equation by 110

85/110 = r

r= 17/22
