the length of the side of this square is 4\sqrt{2} \:or \:5.65cm

Answer:

Solutions Given:

let diagonal of square be AC: 8 cm

let each side be a.

As diagonal bisect square.

let it forms right angled triangle ABC .

Where diagonal AC is hypotenuse and a is their opposite side and base.

By using Pythagoras law

hypotenuse ²=opposite side²+base side²

8²=a²+a²

64=2a²

a²=\frac{64}{2}

a²=32

doing square root on both side

\sqrt{a²}=\sqrt{32}

a=±\sqrt{2*2*2*2*2}

a=±2*2\sqrt{2}

Since side of square is always positive so

a=4\sqrt{2} or 5.65 cm

Answer:

<u>Given</u> :

↠ The diagonal of a square is 8 cm.

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>Find</u> :

↠ The length of the side of square.

<u>Using Formula</u> :

Here is the formula to find the side of square if diagonal is given :

\implies{\sf{a =  \sqrt{2}  \dfrac{d}{2}}}

Where :

  • ➺ a = side of square
  • ➺ d = diagonal of square

<u>Solution</u> :

Substituting the given value in the required formula :

{\dashrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}  \dfrac{d}{2}}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}   \times \dfrac{8}{2}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}   \times \cancel{\dfrac{8}{2}}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}   \times 4}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a = 4\sqrt{2}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{\underline{\underline{\red{ \: a = 5.65 \: cm}}}}}}

Hence, the length of the side of square is 5.6 cm.

Given that triangle x y z is congruent to triangle n m l, the measure of angle x equals 20 degrees, the measure of angle m equal
Delvig [45]

A triangle has a total angle of 180 degrees. Since we know that angle X = angle N = 20 degrees and angle Y = angle M = 75 degrees, therefore angle Z or angle L is equal to:

angle L = 180 – 20 – 75

<span>angle L =  85 degrees</span>

 

Therefore w is:

angle L = 5 (w – 2)

5 (w – 2) = 85

w – 2 = 17

<span>w = 19</span>

Determine e, k, and identify the type of conic for r= 12/ 7- cos theta
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The answer is (d) ⇒ e = 1/7 , k = 12 , conic ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ r = ek/(1 ± ecosФ)

∵ r = 12/(7 - cosФ) ⇒ ÷ 7 up and down

∴ r = 12/7 ÷ 1 - 1/7 (cosФ)

∴ e = 1/7

∵ 12/7 = ke ⇒ 12/7 = k(1/7)

∴ k = 12

∵ 0 < e < 1

∴ The conic is ellipse
