What is the area of the trapezoid with height 10 units?

Mathematics

If by "long leg lengths" you mean the hypotenuse then the area is 116 sq. units.  If you mean the bases of the triangles then the area is 170 sq. units.

If the length of 12 is the hypotenuse, we first must find the base of the triangles using the Pythagorean theorem:

10² + b² = 12²

100 + b² = 144

b² = 44

b = √44 = 6.6

This means we have two triangles and a rectangle.  The area of the rectangle is 5(10) = 50 sq. units.  The area of each triangle is 1/2(6.6)(10) = 33.  Adding all 3 together we have:

50+33+33 = 116 sq. units.

If the 12 is the base, then we have the rectangle with the area of 5(10) = 50 and two triangles each with an area of 1/2(12)(10) = 60:

50+60+60 = 170 sq. units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rodriguez did 1/3 of the job, so the remaining 2/3 of the job will take the assistant 2/3 of the usual time:

  (2/3)(4 1/2) = 3 . . .  hours

The assistant can complete the job in 3 hours.

write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point. y-4=5/2(x+3) ; (-7
faltersainse [42]
The gradient of the perpendicular line would be the negative reciprocal of the original line. Therefore the gradient of the perpendicular line would be -2/5x.
Since we know y=mx+c, ∴y=-2/5x+c. Sub in the x and y values of the given point and we get that c=26/5.

The perpendicular equation would be y=-2/5x+26/5.
I hope I got this right.

If x^(2) - 2 = 2^(2/3) + 2(-2/3) prove that x = 2^(1/3)+2^(-1/3)
dusya [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 2 = 2^(2/3) + 2^(-2/3)

x² = 2^(2/3) + 2 + 2^(-2/3)

x² = (2^(1/3))² + 2 × 2^(1/3) × 2^(-1/3) +

(2^(-1/3))² (It is in the form of a²+2ab+b²)

x² = (2^(1/3) + 2^(-1/3))²

x = 2^(1/3) + 2^(-1/3)
