The length of the shelf is 10 feet while its height is 10 feet.

<h3>Equation</h3>

Equation is an expression used to show the relationship between the sides and angles of a right angled triangle.

Let x represent the shelf length and y represent the shelf height.

The height of the bookcase is 2 feet longer than the length of a shelf. hence:

  • y = x + 2
  • -x + y = 2   (1)

Also, 22 feet of lumber is available:

  • x + y = 22   (2)

From equation 1 and 2:

y = 12, x = 10

The length of the shelf is 10 feet while its height is 10 feet.

Circle K has a diameter of 24 inches. Find the exact length of semicircle HJI. In your final answer, include all of your calcula
Svet_ta [14]
A semicircle's perimeter is half the perimeter of the complete circle.

The perimeter of the complete circle is its circumference which is found by the equation: πD.

Then the equation of the perimeter of the semicircle is πD/2

In this case D = 24 in, then the perimeteir is π (24in/2) = 12π in ≈ 37.7 in

Answer: The exact length is 12π inches and the approximate length is 37.7 inches

In the following figure, triangle ABC and triangle DEF are similar. What is the value of x ? Triangle ABC and triangle DEF are s
Shtirlitz [24]
X = 25.5 mm.

Using the similarity statement given, that ΔABC ~ ΔDEF, we set up a proportion:

8.5/x = 4/12

Cross multiply:
4*x = 8.5*12
4x = 102

Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 102/4
x = 25.5
