The diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent

The length WY is 32

<h3>How to determine the length WY</h3>

Given that:

$WA = x^2 - 48$ and

$AY = x^2 - 6x$

Then, we have:

$x^2 - 48 = x^2 - 6x$ diagonal

Subtract x^2 from both sides

$- 48 =- 6x$

Divide both sides by -6

$x = 8$

The length WY is calculated as:

$WY=2 * WA$

So, we have:

$WY=2 * [x^2 - 48]$

Substitute 8 for x

$WY=2 * [8^2 - 48]$

Simplify

$WY=32$

Hence, the length WY is 32

A skateboarder leaves a 12-foot tall ramp with an initial vertical velocity of 8 feet per sen

taurus [48]

To answer this, we substitute 12 ft to the f(h) in the given equation,
f(h) = -8t² + 8t + 12 = 12

Subtracting 12 from both sides of the equation will give us an answer of,

-8t² + 8t = 0

Then, we transpose 8 to the other side and divide the equation by -8 and t, we get an answer of t = 1 second.

<u>Solution</u><u>:</u>

$\sqrt{4x + 13} = x + 2$

First square both sides.

$= > ( \sqrt{4x + 13} ) ^{2} = (x + 2) ^{2}$

Now, square root and square gets cancel out in the LHS. And in the RHS, apply the identity: (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b².

$= > 4x + 13 = {(x)}^{2} + 2 \times x \times 2 + (2) ^{2} \\ = > 4x + 13 = {x}^{2} + 4x + 4$

Now, transpose 4x and 4 to LHS.

$= > 4x - 4x + 13 - 4 = {x}^{2} \\$

Now, do the addition and subtraction.

$= > {x}^{2} = 9 \\ = > x = \sqrt{9} \\ = > x = ±3$

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf x \approx 1.9}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find x, a missing side in a triangle.

This is a right triangle because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use right triangle trigonometry. The three main functions are:

sinθ= opposite/hypotenuse
cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse
tanθ= opposite/adjacent

Examine the triangle. We will use angle S, measuring 54 degrees, for theta. Side QR, measuring x, is <u>opposite</u> angle S. Side QS, measuring 2.3, is the <u>hypotenuse</u> because it is opposite the right angle. Since we have the opposite and hypotenuse, we will use sine.

$sin \theta = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}$

θ= 54
opposite= x
hypotenuse = 2.3

$sin (54)= \frac{ x}{2.3}$

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 The inverse operation of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 2.3

$2.3* sin (54)= \frac{x}{2.3}*2.3$

$2.3* sin (54)=x$

$2.3*0.8090169944=x$

$1.860739087 =x$

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place to the right tells us to round the 8 up to a 9.

$1.9 \approx x$

x is approximately <u>1.9</u>
