Answer:

Length of RU is 20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔRSt and ΔRUT,

ST ≅ TU [Given]

RT ≅ RT [Reflexive property]

∠RTS ≅ ∠RTU [Both the angles are the right angles]

ΔRTS ≅ ΔRTU [By SAS property of congruence]

Therefore, RS ≅ RU [By CPCTC (corresponding parts of the congruent triangles are congruent]

8x = 6x + 5

8x - 6x = 5

2x = 5

x = 2.5

Length of RU = (6x + 5)

= 6(2.5) + 5

= 15 + 5

= 20

Length of RU is 20 units.

The total length of pencils A, B and C is 29 cm. Pencil a is 11 cm shorter then pencil B, and pencil B is twice as long a pencil

satela [25.4K]

The length of pencil A is 5 cm

Solution:

Let the length of pencil A be "x"

Let the length of pencil B be "y"

Let the length of pencil C be "z"

The total length of pencils A, B and C is 29 cm

Therefore,

length of pencil A + length of pencil B + length of pencil C = 29

x + y + z = 29 ------------ eqn 1

Pencil A is 11 cm shorter then pencil B

x = y - 11 ------- eqn 2

Pencil B is twice as long a pencil C

y = 2z

$z = \frac{y}{2}$ ------ eqn 3

Substitute eqn 2 and eqn 3 in eqn 1

$y - 11 + y + \frac{y}{2} = 29\\\\2y + \frac{y}{2} = 29 + 11\\\\\frac{4y+y}{2} = 40\\\\5y = 80\\\\y = 16$

Substitute y = 16 in eqn 2

x = 16 - 11

x = 5

Thus length of pencil A is 5 cm

Find all solutions in the interval [0,2pi). 2sin^2(x)=sin(x)

SIZIF [17.4K]

$2\sin^2 x =\sin x \\\\\implies 2 \sin^2 x - \sin x=0\\\\\implies \sin x(2 \sin x -1) =0\\\\\implies \sin x = 0~~\text{or}~~ 2 \sin x -1 =0\\\\\implies \sin x = 0~~ \text{or}~ ~ \sin x = \dfrac 12\\\\\text{For}~~ \sin x = 0\\\\x=n\pi \\\\\text{In the interval,}~~[0, 2\pi)\\\\x=0, \pi\\\\\text{For}~~ \sin x = \dfrac 12\\\\x=n\pi+(-1)^n \dfrac{\pi}6 \\\\\text{In the interval,}~~[0, 2\pi)\\\\x=\dfrac{\pi}6,~ \dfrac{5\pi}6\\\\\text{Hence,}~ x = 0,~\pi,~ \dfrac{\pi}6, ~\dfrac{5 \pi}6$
