Hi!
This is a fun one, as it delves into basic trigonometry.
We're going to use the Pythagorean theorem here, which says that for right triangles where "c" is the hypotenuse,
a² + b² = c²
We have to split this large triangle into two parts, both of which are right triangles. (This is why they drew a line in the middle to tell you that the larger triangle is composed of two right triangles.)
Let's do the one on the right first.
We know that the length of the hypotenuse is 10, and that the length of one of the legs is 6.5. If we plug this into our equation, we'll get the length of the other leg. I'm choosing "b" to be 6.5, but it really doesn't matter if you pick "a" or "b", so long as you reserve "c" for the hypotenuse (longest side).
a² + 6.5² = 10²
a² + 42.25 = 100
a² = 57.75
√a² = √57.75
a ≈ 7.6
Therefore, the length of DC is about 7.6.
Find the length of AD using the same method (7.5 is the hypotenuse "c", and 6.5 is one of the legs "a" or "b"). Then, once you have AD, add the lengths of AD and DC to get AC.
Have a great one!
Answer:
1,75 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
3 miles ______26 minutes
1 miles =>26 :3 =8,5 (8 minutes and 5 seconds)
15:8,5 =1,75 miles
Answer:
132 mm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The line added to the figure in the attachment shows it can be divided into two figures whose area is easily calculated.
1. A parallelogram of base length 20 mm and height 4 mm:
A = bh = (20 mm)(4 mm) = 80 mm^2
2. A trapezoid with bases 32 mm and 20 mm, and height 2 mm:
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (1/2)(32 mm +20 mm)(2 mm) = 52 mm^2
The total area of the figure is then ...
80 mm^2 +52 mm^2 = 132 mm^2
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope formula is (change in y)/(change in x)
since the numerator (change in y) is 0, the slope will be 0
X=16
Y=-6
im not good at factorization but this is what i got
