I'm not sure if this is the easiest way of doing this, but it surely work.
Let the base of the triangle be AB, and let CH be the height. Just for reference, we have

Moreover, let CH=y and BC=z
Now, AHC, CHB and ABC are all right triangles. If we write the pythagorean theorem for each of them, we have the following system

If we solve the first two equations for y squared, we have

And we can deduce

So that the third equation becomes

(we can't accept the negative root because negative lengths make no sense)

Answer:
(x, y ) → (x + 2, y - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Compare the coordinates of 2 corresponding points in the original and the image, that is
B(- 5, 4 ) → B'(- 3, 0 )
To translate from B → B'
We require a shift of 2 units right in the x direction and 4 units down in the y direction, that is
(x, y ) → (x + 2, y - 4 ) ← translation rule
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
Simple answer: you can't. I mean that you can't try to use 4 numbers, but you can solve the problem. You are going to have to redraw the diagram on another sheet of paper. Follow the directions below.
Directions for diagram extension.
Go to the right hand end of the 10 unit line.
Draw a line from the intersection point of the 10 unit line and 12 unit line
Draw this line so it is perpendicular to the 18 unit line. That will mean that the new line is parallel (and equal) to x
Mark the intersect point of the new line and the 18 unit line as B
Mark the intersect point of the 18 point line and the 12 unit line as C
Given and constructed
BC = 18 - 10 = 8
BC is one leg of the Pythagorean triangle.
The new x is the other leg of the Pythagorean triangle.
12 is the hypotenuse.
Formula
x^2 + 8^2 = 12^2
x refers to the new x which is equal to the given x
Solution
x^2 + 64 = 144 Subtract 64 from both sides
x^2 +64 - 64 = 144-64 Combine
x^2 = 80 Break 80 down.
x^2 = 4 * 4 * 5 Take the square root of both sides
x = 4*sqrt(5)
Comment
If you want the area it is 4*sqrt(5)(10 + 18)/2 = 56*sqrt(5)
Answer:
20 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of a large cone, 30 cm high, and a small cone of x height.
The scale factor of a volume of the cube of the scale factor of linear dimensions.
The cubic root of 1/27 is 1/3.
This means that the height of the small cone is 1/3 the height of the large cone.
The large cone has height 30 cm.
The small cone has height 10 cm.
30 cm - 10 cm = 20 cm
Answer: 20 cm
