Answer:
x = 3.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the segments proportionally. This means they satisfy ...
bottom segment / side segment = x/6 = (6-x)/4
Multiplying by 12 gives ...
2x = 3(6 -x)
2x = 18 -3x . . . . . eliminate parentheses
5x = 18 . . . . . . . . add 3x
x = 3.6 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
I like to try to work these mentally. The total of side lengths is 10, so the total base length (6) is 6/10 = 0.6 times that. Then x will be 0.6 times the left side length: 0.6·6 = 3.6 = x.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting yards to feet means that we want the label of yards to cancel, leaving feet as our label. Use the factor-label method taught in chemistry.
The yards label cancels out, leaving feet as our label. So to answer the question, in order to convert from yards to feet you are multiplying by 3.
Answer:
x = 28 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Area of link shaded regions = 84 cm²
Required:
The value of x (diameter of the semicircle/length of the rectangle)
Solution:
Diameter of the semicircle = 2r = x
Length of rectangle (L) = 2r = x
Radius of semicircle (r) = ½x
Width of rectangle (W) = radius of semicircle = ½x
Use 3.14 as π
Area of the link shaded regions = area of rectangle - area of semicircle
Thus:
Area of the link shaded regions = (L*W) - (½*πr²)
Plug in the values
84 = (x*½x) - (½*3.14*(½x)²)
84 = x²/2 - (1.57*x²/4)
84 = x²(½ - 1.57/4)
84 = x²(0.5 - 0.3925)
84 = x²(0.1075)
Divide both sides by 0.1075
84/0.1075 = x²
781.4 = x²
√781.4 = x
27.9535329 = x
x = 28 cm
