One angle of a triangle measures 120°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 5:7. What are the measures of those two angles

1 answer:

3 0

5x= one angle measure
7x= second angle measure
120°= third angle

Triangles equal 180°. Add the angles above to total 180°. Find x to find two two unknown angles.

5x + 7x + 120°= 180°
combine like values

12x + 120= 180
subtract 120 from both sides

12x= 60
divide both sides by 12

x= 5

ONE ANGLE MEASURE
5x= 5(5)= 25°

SECOND ANGLE MEASURE
7x= 7(5)= 35°

CHECK:
25° + 35° + 120°= 180°
180°= 180°

ANSWER: The measures of the two angles are 25° and 35°.

Hope this helps! :)

(Quick please ) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help me!!!!! find the surface area of the rectangular prism!!!!!! thank you

Aleks [24]

You can do this !

The rectangular prism has

   -- length = 10 cm
   -- width = 7 cm
   -- height = 3 cm.

-- The area of the top and bottom is (length x width) each.

-- The area of the left and right sides is (length x height) each.

-- The area of the front and back is (width x height) each.

There. I just laid out all the schmartz you need to answer this question.
The rest is all simple arithmetic, and you're perfectly capable of turning
the crank and getting the answer. You don't need anybody else to do
that part for you.

Don't forget your units. The area of each flat face is (cm) times (cm),
and that product will be some cm² , for area.

The formula T= 2pi sqrt(L/32) relates the time, T, in seconds for a pendulum with the length, L, in feet, to make one full swing

tester [92]

The length of pendulum is 2.485 feet

<h3><u><em>Solution:</em></u></h3>

Given that,

The formula T= 2pi sqrt(L/32) relates the time, T, in seconds for a pendulum with the length, L, in feet, to make one full swing back and forth

<u><em>Therefore, the given formula is:</em></u>

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{32} }$

We have to find the length of pendulum that makes one full swing in 1.75 seconds

So the modify the given equation to find "L"

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{32} }\\\\ \sqrt{\frac{L}{32} }=\frac{T}{2 \pi}\\\\\text{Taking square root on both sides }\\\\\frac{L}{32} = \frac{T^2}{4 \pi^2}\\\\L = \frac{T^2}{4 \pi^2} \times 32\\\\L = \frac{T^2}{\pi^2 } \times 8$

Substitute T = 1.75 seconds and $\pi = 3.14$

$L = \frac{1.75^2}{3.14 \times 3.14} \times 8\\\\L = \frac{3.0625}{9.8596} \times 8\\\\L = 2.485$

Thus length of pendulum is 2.485 feet approximately

What two rational expressions sum to 2x+3/x^2-5x+4

Anni [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression: $\frac{2x + 3}{x^2 - 5x + 4}$ , to express this in simplified form, we would need to apply the concept of partial fraction.
