Answer:

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a trapezoid is

A = 1/2(a +b)h

The formula to find the height =

h = 2A/a + b

A= 216 in²

a =14 in

b = 22 in

Hence,

h = 2 × 216/14 + 22

h = 12 inches

The height of the trapezoid = 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + 14x + 24 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} + 12x + 2x + 24 = 0 \\ x(x + 12) + 2(x + 12) = 0 \\ (x + 12)(x + 2) = 0\\ x = - 12 \\ x = - 2$

Compute 4.659×104−2.14×104. Round the answer appropriately.

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

261.98 is the value of the given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the value of the following expression:

$4.659\times 104 - 2.14\times 104$

Using the associative property, we can write and solve the given expression as:

$(4.659 - 2.14)\times 104\\=2.519\times 104\\=261.976$

Rounding off the answer, we get,

$261.976\approx 261.98$

Thus, 261.98 is the value of the given expression.

The measure of an angle is 17°. What is the measure of its complementary angle?

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

73°

Step-by-step explanation:

the measure of two complementary angles add up to 90

so We need to solve this equation to get the measure of its complementary angle :

x + 17 = 90

then

x = 90 - 17

= 73
