Answer:

x = $\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{x}$ = 5 ( multiply both sides by x to clear the fraction )

1 = 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )

$\frac{1}{5}$ = x

The diagram shows a 7cm x 6cm rectangle-based pyramid all the diagonal sides - TA TB TC and TD are length 10cm M is the midpoint

dedylja [7]

Given:

The base is a rectangle of dimension 7 cm×6 cm.

The length of each diagonal side = 10 cm

To find the height of MT.

Formula

By Pythagoras theorem we get,

$h^{2} = l^{2} + b^{2}$

where, h be the hypotenuse

b be the base and

l be the height.

Now, in this diagram,

The perpendicular distance of M from BC = 3 cm

Slant height = 10 cm

Taking, b = 3 and h = 10 we get,

$10^{2} = l^{2} + 3^{2}$

or, $l^{2} = 10^2-3^2$

or, $l = \sqrt{100-9}$

or, $l = 9.5$

Hence,

The height of MT is 9.5 cm.

Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is six more than twice the measure of the other angle. Find the measure

KatRina [158]

We let x and y represent the two angles,

y = 2x + 6

It was stated in the problem that these angles given are a linear pair. Angles in linear pair are said to add up to 180 degrees. Thus,

y + x = 180
2x + 6 + x = 180
3x = 174
x = 58°
y = 122°
