Equilateral triangle L N M is shown.
The sides of an equilateral triangle are 8 units long. What is the length of the altitude of the triangle?

5 StartRoot 2 EndRoot units
4 StartRoot 3 EndRoot units
10 StartRoot 2 EndRoot units
16 StartRoot 5 EndRoot units

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 StartRoot 3 EndRoot units

Hope this answer is right!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AD is perpendicular to BC, so ΔABD will be aright-angled triangle. Thus, the length of the altitude is 4√3 units.

Answer 2

The length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 4√3  units.

The given parameters;

Length of a side of the equilateral triangle, L = 8 units

The half length of the base of the triangle is calculated as follow;

[tex]x = \frac{8 \ units}{2} \\\\x = 4 \ units[/tex]

The height of the triangle is calculated by applying Pythagoras theorem as follows;

[tex]h^2 = L^2 - x^2\\\\h = \sqrt{(8^2) - (4^2)} \\\\h = \sqrt{48} \\\\h = \sqrt{16 \times 3} \\\\h = 4\sqrt{3} \ \ units[/tex]

Thus, the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 4√3  units.

Answer:

a. there could be a problem of high error

b. randomized block design can remove the issue of heterogeneity

c. yes they should

d, yes it could

Step-by-step explanation:

a. if their is a lack of homogeneity among the sample population, then the results that would be obtained are going to be with increased experimental error.

b. given the number of treatment, the randomized block design technique can be done. This would then remove the issue of heterogeneity. It also gives more information and the results from the test are easier. Even in the presence of missing data, the missing plot technique can be employed.

c. when a control group is used, it makes easier the examination of the market research in a more effective way.

d. Yes it could be a double blind one. This would help to take away the problem of bias.

what are the first five terms of the recursive sequence

Answers

Answer: Choice D

9, 30, 93, 282, 849

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

Explanation:

The notation [tex]a_1 = 9[/tex] tells us that the first term is 9

The notation [tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3[/tex] says that we multiply the (n-1)st term by 3, then add on 3 to get the nth term [tex]a_n[/tex]

So if we wanted the second term for instance, then we'd say

[tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(a_{2-1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(a_{1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(9)+3\\\\a_2 = 27+3\\\\a_2 = 30\\\\[/tex]

If we want the third term, then,

[tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(a_{3-1})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(a_{2})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(30)+3\\\\a_3 = 90+3\\\\a_3 = 93\\\\[/tex]

and so on.

The terms so far are: 9, 30, 93

You should find the fourth and fifth terms are 282 and 849 respectively if you keep this pattern going.

Trigonometry help please? I need the three answers

Answers

Answer:

Both triangles are triangle rectangles, but the triangles are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Pythagorean's theorem, we know that for a triangle rectangle the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Where the cathetus are always the two sides of smaller length.

We also know that two figures are similar if all the correspondent sides are proportional to each other, this means that the figures have the same shape but different size.

First, for triangle A the measures of the sides are:

48, 55, 73

Here the two catheti are 48 and 55, and the hypotenuse is 73.

Then to answer the first question we need to try to apply the Pythagorean's theorem, we should have:

48^2 + 55^2 = 73^2

solving that we get:

5,329 = 5,329

This is true, thus triangle A is a triangle rectangle.

Now for triangle B the measures are: 36, 77 and 85.

So the catheti are 36 and 77, and the hypotenuse is 85

So to check if triangle B is a triangle rectangle the equation:

36^2 + 77^2 = 85^2

must be true, solving both sides we get:

7,225 = 7,225

This is true, so triangle B is a triangle rectangle.

Finally, to check if the figures are similar we need to compare the correspondent sides of both triangles, such that the quotient of correspondent sides must be always the same.

For the hypotenuses, if we compute:

(hypotenuse B)/(Hypotenuse A) we get:

85/73 = 1.16

Now if we do the same for the two smaller catheti we get:

36/48 = 0.75

The quotients are different, thus the triangles are not similar.

To find:

The actual distance in km.

Solution:

The scale is 1:35000.

It means 1 cm on map = 35000 cm in actual.

Using this conversion, we get

14 cm on map = [tex]14\times 35000[/tex] cm in actual.

                       = [tex]490000[/tex] cm in actual.

                       = [tex]4.9\times 1000o0[/tex] cm in actual.

                       = [tex]4.9[/tex] km in actual.          [tex][1\text{ km}=100000\text{ cm}][/tex]

Therefore, the actual distance between two buildings is 4.9 km.

Find the measure of angle X. The horizontal lines are parallel. HINT: The sum
of all interior angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Answers

Answer:  x = 112 (choice D)

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

Explanation:

The angle adjacent and supplementary to the 107 degree angle is 73 degrees because 107+73 = 180.

Or you could say 180 - 107 = 73.

The base angles of the upper isosceles triangle are 73 degrees each, which means the third remaining angle (let's call it y for now) is

73+73+y = 180

146+y = 180

y = 180-146

y = 34

Refer to the diagram below. Notice how the 34 degree angle shows up twice because we have vertical angles. Consequently, the base angles of the bottom isosceles triangle are y = 34 degrees each

We can now solve for x

y+y+x = 180

34+34+x = 180

68+x = 180

x = 180-68

x = 112, so the answer is choice D

Three times a number, decreased by five

(Simplify your answer.)

Answers

EZ,
3x-5
(3x) = 3 times a number.
Decrease means subtract.

To express the phrase "Three times a number, decreased by five" as an algebraic expression, we can use the variable x to represent the unknown number: 3x - 5

Now, let's simplify this expression: Given that the unknown number is represented by x, we can substitute it into the expression above. Substituting x into the expression, we have: [tex]3(x) - 5 3x - 5[/tex] Therefore, the algebraic expression representing "Three times a number, decreased by five" is [tex]3x - 5.[/tex] At this point, there is no further simplification possible since the expression is already in its simplest form.

For example, let's assume the unknown number x is 7. We can plug in this value to evaluate the expression: [tex]3(7) - 5 = 21 - 5 = 16[/tex] Similarly, if x is -2, the calculation would be: [tex]3(-2) - 5 = -6 - 5 = -11[/tex] In conclusion, the algebraic expression 3x - 5 represents the phrase "Three times a number, decreased by five."
