Let
x,y, and z the long sides of the triangle
we know that
x+y+z=170 ft------> equation 1
x/y=25/14----> y=14x/25------> equation 2
y/z=14/12-----> equation 3
x/z=25/12----> z=12x/25------> equation 4
substitute equation 2 and equation 4 in equation 1
x+[14x/25]+[12x/25]=170------> multiply by 25 both sides
25x+14x+12x=4250
51x=4250
x=4250/51
x=250/3
y=14x/25------> y=(250/3)*(14/25)----> y=140/3
z=12y/14-----> (140/3)*12/14----> z=40
Using Heron's formula,
Area of the triangle = √s (s-a) (s-b) (s-c)
where s is the semiperimeter
s=170/2-----> s=85 ft
Area=√85*[85-250/3]*[85-140/3]*[85-40]
Area=9.22*[1.67]*[38.33]*[45]------> Area=26558.21 ft²
the answer is
26558.21 ft²
The scenario described above is like dividing a right cone from the vertex down to the center for the base. The polygon that can be formed from the division or in this case slicing is a triangle. Thus, the answer to this item is letter B.
Answer:
x = 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they are supplementary, they add up to 180 degrees.
So, you can say x + x/2 = 180
Then, you would solve it like an algebra problem.
Multiply both sides by 2
2x + x = 360
Simplify
3x = 360
Divide both sides by 3
x = 120
Answer:
75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
6 because 45 divides by 3 equals 15 and fifteen minus 9 equals 6, if you plug 6 into the equation it makes sense
