Statement DF=4in. is true because: triangle DEF has a m∠D=90° so it is a right-angled triangle. But at the same time <span>m∠E=45° so it is a isosceles triangle and a right-angled as well. </span>

Answer:   The answer is DF=4 inch.


Step-by-step explanation:  As shown in the attached figure, a right-angled triangle DEF is constructed using a protractor, where ∠D=90°, DE 4 inch and ∠E=45°.

So, according to the figure, EF is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Now, in ΔDEF

∠D + ∠E + ∠F = 180°, which gives us

∠F = 180°-∠D - ∠E = 180° - 90° - 45° = 45°.

Hence, ∠E = ∠F. Thus, DE = DF, which implies that ΔDEF is an isosceles triangle also.

Thus, DF = 4 inch.

Answer:

  D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wording "when x is an appropriate value" is irrelevant to this question. That phrase should be ignored. (You may want to report this to your teacher.)

When you look at the answer choices, you see that all of them are negative except the last one (D). When you look at the problem fraction, you see that it is positive.

The only reasonable choice is D.

Your calculator can check this for you.

  √12/(√3 +3) ≈ 3.4641/(1.7321 +3)

  = 3.4641/4.7321 ≈ 0.7321 = -1 +√3

__

If you want to "rationalize the denominator", then multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator. The conjugate is formed by switching the sign between terms.

  \displaystyle\frac{\sqrt{12}}{\sqrt{3}+3}=\frac{\sqrt{12}}{(\sqrt{3}+3)}\cdot\frac{(\sqrt{3}-3)}{(\sqrt{3}-3)}=\frac{\sqrt{36}-3\sqrt{12}}{3-9}\\\\=\frac{6-3\cdot2\sqrt{3}}{-6}=\boxed{-1+\sqrt{3}}

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

We "rationalize the denominator" in this way to take advantage of the relation ...

  (a -b)(a +b) = a² -b²

Using this gets rid of the irrational root in the denominator, hence "rationalizes" the denominator.

We could also have multiplied by (3 -√3)/(3 -√3). This would have made the denominator positive, instead of negative. However, I chose to use (√3 -3) so you could see that all we did was change the sign from (√3 +3).
