Answer:

A: 8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

Since if we add the side of 4 and 8 it equals to 12, which is not greater than 12, meaning this would be a line if you tried to draw it, leading to the conclusion that A is not possible

There are 8 tennis players in a round robin tournament, which means each team will play every other team once. How many matches
Aliun [14]
<h3>Answer:  28</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

Method 1

Imagine a table with 8 rows and 8 columns to represent all possible match-ups. You can actually draw out this table or just think of it as a thought experiment.

There are 8*8 = 64 entries in the table. Along the northwest diagonal, we have each team pair up with itself. This is of course silly and impossible. We cross off this entire diagonal so we drop to 64-8 = 56 entries.

Then notice that the lower left corner is a mirror copy of the upper right corner. A match-up like AB is the same as BA. So we must divide by 2 to get 56/2 = 28 different matches.

----------------------------------

Method 2

There are 8 selections for the first slot, and 8-1 = 7 selections for the second slot. We have 8*7 = 56 permutations and 56/2 = 28 combinations.

----------------------------------

Method 3

Use the nCr combination formula with n = 8 and r = 2

n C r = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\\\\8 C 2 = \frac{8!}{2!*(8-2)!}\\\\8 C 2 = \frac{8!}{2!*6!}\\\\8 C 2 = \frac{8*7*6!}{2!*6!}\\\\ 8 C 2 = \frac{8*7}{2!}\\\\ 8 C 2 = \frac{8*7}{2*1}\\\\ 8 C 2 = \frac{56}{2}\\\\ 8 C 2 = 28\\\\

There are 28 combinations possible. Order doesn't matter (eg: match-up AB is the same as match-up BA).

Notice how the (8*7)/2 expression is part of the steps shown above in the nCr formula.

the hypotenuse of a 30-60-90 degree right triangle has a measure of 10. what is the measure of the shortest side
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

A 30-60-90 triangle's sides equal as follows:

Hypotanuse= x (a number)

Long side= x/2( also can be calculated as x* 1/2) * \sqrt{3}

Short side = x/2 or x * 1/2

State which of the following sets of order pairs represent a function
Tamiku [17]

Remark

The quick answer is C does not represent a function. It has two y values for x = 2. These two points are (2,1) and (2,3). That eliminates C. No x can have 2 y values and be called a function. A function can have many x vales for a single y and still be a function.

A has all different x values, so it could be classed as a function. There are no values where x has more than 1 y value.

B also has all different x values. It too is a function.

Answer

A and B are both functions. C is not.

What is the measure of x
mixer [17]

Answer:

x=76 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

< dij + < jih = 180   straight line

< dij + 107 = 180

subtract 107 from each side

< dij = 73


<jdi + < dij + <idj = 180  triangle

31 + 73 + < idj = 180

combine like terms

104+ < idj = 180

subtract 104 from each side

< idj = 76

<idj = < ajf   vertical angles

76 < ajf

<ajf = x

x=76 degrees

How many triangles can be constructed with angles measuring 50,90,40
inn [45]
Only two triangles:
The 90* angle is stable, so you can change only the position of the 50* and 40* angles.
1 triangle: 40* is right to the 90*
2 triangle: 40* is left to the 90*

Hope this helped you!
