Answer:

3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid has an area of 18 square miles. The bases are 5 miles and 7 miles. Using these measurements, the height of this trapezoid is how many miles

Area of a trapezoid = 1/2 (a + b)h

The formula for the height of a trapezoid =

h = 2(A/a + b)

A = 18 square miles

a = 5 miles

b = 7 miles

h = 2(18/5 + 7)

h = 2( 18/12)

h = 2 ( 9/6)

h = 3 miles

If sin theta = cos theta then find the value of theta
Ksenya-84 [330]

Step-by-step explanation:

\because \sin  \theta =  \cos  \theta  \\   \\ \therefore \: \sin  \theta =  \sin(90 \degree -   \theta)  \\   \\ \therefore \:  \theta =  90 \degree -   \theta \\   \\ \therefore \:   \theta + \theta=  90 \degree \\  \\ \therefore \:  2\theta =  90 \degree \\  \\\therefore \:  \theta =   \frac{90 \degree }{2} \\  \\ \huge \orange{\boxed{\therefore \:   \theta =   45 \degree}}\\  \\

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

2*(5x - 2) + 2*(3x+1) ; Perimeter = 62 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

2*(5x - 2) + 2*(3x+1) = 10x - 4 + 6x + 2

                                = 16x -2

If x = 4 , then Perimeter = 16*4 - 2 = 64 - 2 = 62 cm

Divide the sum of -13/5 and 12/7 by the product of -31/7 and -1/2
andriy [413]

Let's compute the two factors separately: as for "the sum of -13/5 and 12/7", we have to rewrite the two fractions so that they have the same denominator. Since the least common multiple of 5 and 7 is 35, we will change both fractions so that they have denominator 35:


\frac{-13}{5} = \frac{-13}{5}\frac{7}{7} = \frac{-91}{35} \qquad \qquad \frac{12}{7} = \frac{12}{7}\frac{5}{5} = \frac{60}{35}


So now we can sum them:


\frac{-13}{5}+\frac{12}{7} = \frac{-91}{35}+\frac{60}{35} = \frac{-91+60}{35} = \frac{-31}{35}


Multiplication is easier, since you just have to multiply numerators and denominators with each others:


\frac{-31}{7} \frac{-1}{2} = \frac{-31 \cdot (-1)}{7\cdot 2} = \frac{31}{14}


Finally, we must divide the two fractions. Dividing by a fraction is the same this as multiplying by the inverse of that fraction, i.e. we have to switch numerator and denominator:


\frac{-31}{35} \div \frac{31}{14} = \frac{-31}{35} \cdot \frac{14}{31} = -\frac{2}{5}
