All sides are equal in an equilateral triangle and the perpendicular bisects the side too.
so BC will be bisected and the segments be 5 each.
you can use Pythagoras theorem to find the altitude length, hypotenuse will be one side of the triangle.
$h^2=100-25=75$
$h=\sqrt{75}=5\sqrt3$
The first answer
f(x)= (x-3)^2 + 4
The variable m should equal -5
Answer:
The distance is 8 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to write an equation for each of chauffeured car services.
The first one = 28 + 2x = ?
The second one = 13 + 5x = ?
Next, we need to figure out what x is. Usually I just plug in random numbers, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it.
I first plugged in 2 as x.
28 + 4 = 32
13 + 10 = 23
That didn't work, so I then plugged in 5.
28 + 10 = 38
13 + 25 = 38
So 5 would be the correct answer for what is the distance.
Answer:
z = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the midsegment theorem of a triangle, the length of the midsegment of the triangle (z) = ½ of the length of the 3rd side of the triangle (14)
Thus:
z = ½(14)
z = 7
