Answer: 17 inches by 7 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
119 = 1 x 119 & 7 x 17
7 x 17 is the more likely answer, so let's test it
7 x 2 + 3 = 17
Therefore, the dimensions are 17 by 7.
Answer:
x = ±2√15
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
<u>Algebra I</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
x² = 60
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Square root both sides: x = ±√60
- Simplify: x = ±2√15
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in both solutions of x to verify it's a solution.</em>
x = 2√15
- Substitute: (2√15)² = 60
- Evaluate: 4 · 15 = 60
- Multiply: 60 = 60
x = -2√15
- Substitute: (-2√15)² = 60
- Evaluate: 4 · 15 = 60
- Multiply: 60 = 60
Here we see that both solutions do indeed work.
∴ x = ±2√15 are both solutions to the equation.
The figure/drawing isn't needed to answer this question.
The question tells us ABCD ~ WXYZ, which means trapezoid ABCD is similar to WXYZ.
Point A corresponds to point W, B corresponds with X, C corresponds with Y, and D corresponds with Z (first, second, third, and last letters correspond with each other according to the similarity statement).
Now let's check each answer choice and see which applies to these similar trapezoids:
- Since point B corresponds with point X and the trapezoids are similar, they must be congruent angles. Thus, the first choice is correct.
- Point Y does not correspond with point A. Thus, it is possible the angles are not congruent. The second choice is incorrect.
- Point A corresponds with W and B corresponds with X. Thus, line segment AB will be similar to line segment WX. However, they are not equal. Thus, the third choice is incorrect.
- There's an equal sign in this choice, too, just like the last, and the two segments are corresponding line segments. Thus, the fourth choice is incorrect.
- This looks like the third choice, but with a similarity symbol instead of an equal sign. Now, the statement is true and the fifth choice is correct.
- This looks like the fourth choice but with a similarity instead of an equal sign. Now, the statement is true and the sixth choice is correct.
