Triangle ABC is shown below.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrew [12]3 years ago

Answer:

C.) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the triangle: angles b and c have the same arch, so they are congruent.

In a triangle, if two angles are congruent, then the triangle is isosceles, having two equal sides.

The sides opposite the congruent angles are congruent:

∠B → opposite side → AC

∠C → opposite side → AB

The sides AB and AC are equal. Make an equation:

AB=AC\\\\2x=3x-7

Simplify the equation, solving for x. Add 7 to both sides:

2x+7=3x-7+7\\\\2x+7=3x

Subtract 2x from both sides:

2x-2x+7=3x-2x\\\\7=x

The value of x is 7. Insert the value of x into the given length of AC:

AC=3(7)-7

Simplify multiplication:

AC=21-7

Subtract:

AC=14

Therefore, the length of the line segment AC is 14.

What is the distance between (1,-5) and (-3,6)​
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\sqrt{137}\approx11.7}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a distance between two points:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

We have two points (1, -5) and (-3, 6). substitute:

d=\sqrt{(-3-1)^2+(6-(-5))^2}=\sqrt{(-4)^2+11^2}=\sqrt{16+121}=\sqrt{137}

Exercise 1: Solve the follo<br> a) 3x + 5 = 36<br><br> What’s the answer
Dafna11 [192]

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5 = 36

3x = 36 - 5 = 31 (subtract 5 on both sides)

3x = 31

x = 31/3 (divide 3 on both sides)

Hence x = 31/3.
