Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = BD

x/3 = 12/x

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the product is a result of multiplication....so lets multiply

x^2 (x^4 + x^2 - 1) =

x^6 + x^4 - x^2

ok...his mistakes are occurring because he is multiplying the exponents when he is supposed to be adding them.

im really sorry for asking so many questions its just my only way of getting these assignments done on time plus their due tomor
Paul [167]

Answer: 3.84 m

Step-by-step explanation: The biggest clue here is that the scale factor is 1:12.

1:12=32:x

To find x, multiply 32 by 12. 32x12 is 384. You can't say the answer is 384, however, since the label for the actual water tower says "m" for meters instead of "cm" like for the model. 384 cm is equal to 3.84 m.

Hope this helped! ;)

the sides of one right triangle are 6,8 and 10.the sides of another right triangle are 10,24 and 26.determine if the triangle ar
valkas [14]
So the ratio must be the same for the triangle to be the same
smallest side of 1 right triangle to smalles side of other right trigle shoudl be same as largest  side of 1 right trignale to largest side of other right triangle and also middle side


6:10 should equal 10:26 should equal 8:24
treat as fraction
6/10=10/26=8/24?
3/5=5/13=1/3
we know that 3/5 is not equal to 1/3 so they are NOT SIMILAR

ratios are
3:5
1:3
5:13


the perimiter of the smaller is 6+8+10=24
perimiter of larger is 10+24+26=60
ratio of perimiters larger to smaller is 60:24=5:2

area is 1/2 base times height
longest side=hypotonuse
therefor other 2 sides must be base and height

area of smaller=8 times 6 times 1/2=24

area lf larger=10 times 24 times 1/2=120
ratio of larger ot smaller is 120:24=5:1



not similar


ratio of perimiter larger to smaler=5:2

ratio oif area larger to smaller=5:1
