Find the value of x in the isosceles triangle

Find The Value Of X In The Isosceles Triangle

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all 3 sides of the triangle is equal, it is not only an isosceles, but an equilateral triangle.

x = 8sin60° = 6.928 or sqrt48.

Answer 2

That is a question about triangles.

In my answer I will show 2 ways to solve that question, ok? Let's go.

First way - Pythagoras's theorem

The line segment x divide the biggest triangle in 2 equals right triangles.

Let's choose one of them and note that is a triangule with hypotenuse equals to 8 and one cathetus equals to half of 8.

The Pythagoras's theorem says that:

[tex]\boxed{a^2 = b^2 + c^2}[/tex]

a is the hypotenuse and b and c are cathetus.

So, in our case, we know the hypotenuse and one cathetus, let's substitute that in the expression:

[tex]a^2 = b^2 + c^2\\8^2 = 4^4 + c^2\\64 = 16 + c^2\\c^2 = 64 - 16\\c^2 = 64 -16\\c^2 = 48\\c = \sqrt{48}\\c= 4\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x is [tex]4\sqrt{3}[/tex].

Second way - The equilateral triangle height

That way to solve the question is a consequence of the previous way.

That triangle has all the sides equals, so it is a equilateral triangle.The line segment x is the height of that triangle. And we can find the equilateral triangle height using that expression:

[tex]\boxed{h = \frac{S\cdot \sqrt{3} }{2} }[/tex]

h is the height and S is the triangle's side.

So, we know that the side of our triangle is 8. Let's change S value in the expression:

[tex]h = \frac{S\cdot \sqrt{3} }{2} \\h = \frac{8\cdot \sqrt{3} }{3} \\h = 4\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Thus, the value of x is [tex]4\sqrt{3}[/tex].

Note that in the 2 ways we find the same result, so that answer is correct.

I hope I've helped. :D

Enjoy your studies! \o/

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply -3 for x and for 5

-3x-15=27

When you have this type of equation the first thing you do is take off the parentesis

Then you pass the 15 to the other side and you get -3x= 27 +15 . After that you divide that for -3 and you get the x . In this case x= -14

Jennifer purchased for 2$ and p pounds of sliced turkey at 5$ per pound for a total of $13.25. Which equation represents jennifer's purchase from the grocery store?

Answers

Answer:

$2 + $5p = $13.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial purchase = $2

Pound of sliced turkey = p

Cost per pound of sliced turkey = 5$

Total amount spent = $13.25

Jennifers purchase from grocery store :

Initial purchase + (pound of sliced turkey * cost or pound) = total amount spent

$2 + $5p = $13.25

The trapezoid ABCD has bases AB = 15 and CD = 5, thigh AD = 9 and diagonal BD = 12. Find:

a) the height h

b) S

c) the perimeter P of the trapezoid

Please someone help me

Answers

Answer:

The height of the trapezoid is 6.63 units

The perimeter of the trapezoid is 38 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever a geometry problem is given, it is often useful if it is sketched out. A sketch of this problem can be found in the image attached.

A)

We can see that a right-angled triangle is formed between points BED, with line BE being the height, h.

To get the dimensions of the line EB, we subtract the dimensions of DC from AB. This will give 15 -5 = 10

hence the dimensions of the righ angled triangle are

DE= h

DB = 12 (diagonal)

EB = 10

From Pythagoras' theorem,

[tex]h =\sqrt{12^2 -10^2}=6.63[/tex]

The height of the trapezoid is 6.63

B)

We can get the perimeter of the trapezoid by adding the dimensions of all four sides together.

This will be

AD + DC + CB + AB

However we can assume for this case that it is a symmetrical trapezoid, and hence AD = CB

Thus, perimeter =

2 (AD) + DC +AB

2(9) +5 +15 = 38.

The perimeter of the trapezoid is 38 units

The length of the two legs of a right triangle are 18 cm and 24 cm.
What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle?
O A. 30 cm
OB. 36 cm
OC. 42 cm
D. 48 cm

Answers

Answer: 30 cm

Step-by-step explanation: Take note that ^2 means to the second power.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (hypotenuse)

18^2 + 24^2 = c^2

324 + 576 = c^2

900 = c^2

To find the length of c you have to find teh square root of 900.

√c^2 = √900

c = 30

The length of the hypotenuse is 30 cm!

Wesley wants to have at least $50 to spend each day of his 7-day vacation. He plans to save $30 each month for 12 months. Which of the following shows that Wesley will save enough money for his vacation? Choose all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

i cant choose any that applies to this question because there is no picture added to it and there are no choices to choose from. If i were to solve it though, it would be; yes, he will save enough money for his vacation.

Step-by-step explanation:

I know he would have enough--and in this case more than enough, because since he's planning to save $30 for a whole year just for $50, when he could simply make $60--which is in fact more than needed for his goal-- in just 2 months. If he were to stick with his plan though, he'd make $360. I got that by multiplying 30 by 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three sides be a, b and c respectively.

Such that:

[tex]a = 8[/tex]

[tex]b = 9[/tex]

[tex]c= 10[/tex]

Required

Determine the area

This is calculated as:

[tex]Area = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)[/tex]

Where

[tex]s = \frac{1}{2}(a + b + c)[/tex]

Substitute values for a, b and c

[tex]s = \frac{1}{2}(8 + 9 + 10)[/tex]

[tex]s = \frac{1}{2}(27)[/tex]

[tex]s = 13.5[/tex]

Substitute values for a, b, c and s in

[tex]Area = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)[/tex]

[tex]Area = \sqrt{13.5 * (13.5 - 8)* (13.5 - 9)* (13.5 - 10)[/tex]

[tex]Area = \sqrt{13.5 * 5.5* 4.5* 3.5[/tex]

[tex]Area = \sqrt{1169.4375[/tex]
