Find the height of the triangle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The height is 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a triangle with the 3 sides marked as 15, 20, and 25 and we want to find the height of it (marked as x in the problem).

This problem can seem a bit difficult, but let's see if the triangle is a right triangle first off.  

One way to figure out if it is a right triangle is to apply the converse of the Pythagorean theorem.

Let's label the sides, where a is the shortest side, b is the second shortest side, and c is the longest side:

a=15

b=20

c=25  

Now square a and b, then add the result together. If it's the same as c squared, then the triangle is a right triangle

15²+20²=25²

225+400=625

625=625

So we can safely say that the triangle is a right triangle

This makes the problem way easier, as there are 2 ways to find the area of a right triangle:

The first way is to multiply the legs (the sides that make up the right angle) together, then divide the result by 2

The other way is to multiply the height and the hypotenuse (the side OPPOSITE to the right angle) together, and then divide the result by 2

First, we need to figure out which sides are the legs, and which side is the hypotenuse

By the triangle inequality theorem, the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the longest side, which means that the 25 cm side is the hypotenuse, and that leaves 15 cm and the 20 cm sides as the legs

So let's find the area of the triangle using the legs

A=[tex]\frac{15*20}{2}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{300}{2}[/tex]=150

So the area of the triangle is 150 cm²

However, as mentioned above, we can also find the area of the triangle by multiplying the hypotenuse by the base, then dividing the result by 2

Which means that the area is also:

A=[tex]\frac{25x}{2}[/tex] cm²

As these both equal the area of the triangle, we can set them equal to each other. This is possible via a property known as transitivity (if a=b and b=c, then a=c)

[tex]\frac{25x}{2}=150[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

25x=300

Divide both sides by 25

x=12 cm

So the height of the triangle is 12 cm

Hope this helps!

The area of square of side 3X is 72 square unit.

What is square?

The square is a 4 sided figure, each side of the square is equal and make a right angle.

The area of square having sided a unit can be given by a² square unit.

Given that,

Area of square having side X is 8.

Since, formula for area of square having side X is X².

Implies that,

X² = 8

X = 2√2

The area of square having side 3X
side =3 × 2√2

side = 6√2

The area of square = (6√2)²

                                = 36 x 2

                                = 72

The area of square is 72 square unit.

Answer

d = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

square root 4y - 3 = d - y where y = 7

Substitute y for 7

Square root 4(7) - 3 = d - (7)

Multiply 4 and 7

Square root 28 - 3 = d - (7)

Subtract 28 - 3

Square root 25 = d - (7)

Square root 25

5 = d - (7)

Add 7 to both sides

12 = d


Therefore, d = 12

Answer:

d=2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given equation:

sqrt(4y-3)=d-y

Squaring both sides gives:

4y-3=(d-y)^2

Applying the identity (x+y)^2=x^2+2xy+y^2 on right:

4y-3=d^2-2dy+y^2

Now let's y=7:

4(7)-3=d^2-2d(7)+(7)^2

Simplify:

25=d^2-14d+49

Subtract 25 on both sides:

0=d^2-14d+24

Factor left:

0=(d-12)(d-2) since -2+-12=-14 and -2(-12)=24

This gives d=12 or d=2.

The d that makes d-y or I mean d-7 negative will give us y=7 as extraneous

Since 2-7 is -5, then d=2 is what we are looking for.

Check:

sqrt(4y-3)=d-y

Set d=2: sqrt(4y-3)=2-y

Now solve for y:

Square both sides: 4y-3=4-4y+y^2

Subtract 4y and 3 on both sides: 0=7-8y+y^2

Reorder right side: 0=y^2-8y+7

Factor: 0=(y-7)(y-1) since -7+-1=-8 and -7(-1)=7

This gives y=7 or y=1.

Plugging in y=7 for a check to this equation gives:

sqrt(4×7-3)=2-7

Sqrt(25)=-5

5=-5 which is not true which is what we wanted

Which is the rate of change for the interval between 2 and 6 on the x-axis?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change for the interval between x = 2 and x = 6 is simply asking you for the slope of the line that connects these 2 coordinates. If you were in calculus, you could find the instantaneous slope at any point on this parabola, but you're not quite that lucky yet, so we will go about it the only way we can:

by finding the slope. Remember, that slope is the same thing as rate of change.

What describes the correct way to convert minutes to an hour

Answers

Answer:

Yo mean correct way??

yo can divide minute by 60 to convert minute into hour

For example

To convert 10 minute into hour. then we should divide 10 by 60. 10/60

Answer:

In any conversion you have to establish  ratios (or rates) for the different units being converted.

The process will be performed by a series of multiplications that will cancel out the "unwanted" units.

multiplication by one (1) does not change the value in an equation.

you have to multiply by a "series of ones" that take into account the units being converted..

for example  

1 minute/60 seconds   or  1 inch = 2.54 cm   or  1 day = 24 hours

in your problem you have minutes... lets say you have 100 minutes

100 minutes * 1 hour             minutes cancel and you have  100/60 = 1 [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] hrs
