Step-by-step explanation:

6      x

-   =   -

8      12

the relationship from 8 to 12 is divided by.666666666666

So, we do the same for 6

We get 9.

The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 2x-6. The perimeter of the triangle is 38. Find X
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle = the sum of the three sides.    

In an isosceles the legs are equal (2x - 6) and the base is x

Perimeter = (x) + (2x - 6) + (2x - 6)

          38  = 5x - 12

        38 + 12 = 5x

            50 =   5x

              \frac{50}{5} = \frac{5x}{5}

               10 = x

Help ASAP please !! No scam I really need this<br> Trigonometry!!
USPshnik [31]
<h3>Answer:  Choice D)  7.5 cm</h3>

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

Explanation:

We are told that quadrilateral ABCD is similar to quadrilateral EFGH.

The order of the four letter sequence is important.

  • For ABCD, we have AB as the first pair of letters.
  • For EFGH, we have EF as the first pair of letters.

Therefore, AB and EF are corresponding sides.

So AB = 10 and EF = x pair up together. We can form the ratio AB/EF which becomes 10/x.

The diagram shows that AD = 8. Notice that A and D are the first and last letters of ABCD. The first and last letters of EFGH are E and H. We can see that AD and EH correspond to one another because of this.

AD = 8 and EH = 6 forming the ratio AD/EH = 8/6

Because the quadrilaterals are similar, the corresponding ratios must be the same. Therefore, AB/EF is the same as AD/EH.

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

Let's set up a proportion to solve for x

AB/EF = AD/EH

10/x = 8/6

10*6 = x*8

60 = 8x

8x = 60

x = 60/8

x = 7.5  Answer is choice D
