What Is The Height??

Answers

Answer 1

[tex]\bold{\huge{\underline{ Solution }}}[/tex]

Here, we have given

One isosceles triangle that means the given triangle having two sides equal. The dimensions of the triangle are 21cm, 21 cm and 16 cm.

Consider the given triangle as ABC . In ΔABC, AD acts as a median. It means Angle ADB = 90°

Therefore,

By using Pythagoras theorem,

It states that the sum of the squares of base and perpendicular height is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

That is,

[tex]\bold{ ( Hypotenuse) ^{2} = (Perpendicular) ^{2} + (base) ^{2}}[/tex]

Subsitute the required values

[tex]\sf{ AC^{2} = AB^{2} + BC^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ (21)^{2} = (h) ^{2} + (16)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 441 = (h)^{2} + 256}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ (h)^{2} = 441 - 256}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ h^{2} = 185}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ h = \sqrt{185}}[/tex]

[tex]\bold{ h = 13.6 \: cm}[/tex]

Hence, The required height of the given isosceles triangle is 13.6 cm.

[ Note :- you can also solve this problem by using Heron's Formula but it's too lengthy to solve that's why I have used simple method ]

A pilot scheduled to depart at 4:00 pm, but due to air traffic, her departure has been delayed by 10 minutes. Air traffic control approved a new flight plan that will allow her to arrive three times faster then she calculated in her original flight plan. Let x represent the time, in minutes, of her original flight. Create an equation that can be used to predict the number of minutes after 4:00 pm she will arrive at her destination.

A. Y = 1/3x + 10
B. Y = 3x + 10
C. Y = 1/3x - 10
D. Y = 3x - 10

Answers

Answer: Choice A

y = (1/3)x+10

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

Explanation:

x = number of minutes of the original flight

Because the pilot travels 3 times faster than before, it means she travels 1/3 of the original time. If she took x minutes on the original flight, then she will take (1/3)x minutes for the new faster flight.

Then add on the 10 minute delay to end up with (1/3)x+10

What must be the value of x?

Answers

The value of x must be 25.0. The correct option is the second option-  25.0

Solving Linear equations

From the question, we are to determine the value of x

From the given diagram, we can write that

m ∠SOR + m ∠UOR + m ∠TOU = 180° (Sum of angles on a straight line)

∴ (2x +8)° + (3x - 14)° + (3x -14)° = 180°

2x° + 8° + 3x° -14° + 3x° -14° = 180°

Collect like terms

2x° + 3x° + 3x° + 8° - 14° -14° = 180°

8x° -20° = 180°

8x° = 180° + 20°

8x° = 200°

x = 200/8

x = 25.0

Hence, the value of x must be 25.0. The correct option is the second option-  25.0

What is the ratio of the area of sector abc to the area of sector dbe? a. b. c. d. e.

Answers

The ratio of the area of sector abc to the area of sector dbe is 4/3

How to determine the ratio of the areas?

For sector abc, we have:

Angle = x

Radius  = 2r

For sector dbe, we have:

Angle = 3x

Radius = r

The area of a sector is:

[tex]Area =\frac{\theta}{360}* \pi r^2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]ABC =\frac{x}{360}* \pi (2r)^2[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex]ABC =\frac{x* \pi r^2}{90}[/tex]

For DBE, we have:

[tex]DBE =\frac{3x}{360}* \pi (r)^2[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex]DBE =\frac{x}{120}* \pi r^2[/tex]

The ratio of both areas is:

[tex]Ratio = \frac{x}{90}* \pi r^2 : \frac{x}{120}* \pi r^2[/tex]

Cancel out the common factors

[tex]Ratio = \frac{1}{90} : \frac{1}{120}[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]Ratio = \frac{120}{90}[/tex]

Divide

[tex]Ratio = \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Hence, the ratio of the area of sector abc to the area of sector dbe is 4/3

On a test that has a normal distribution, a score of 30 falls three standard deviations below the mean, and a score of 60 falls three standard deviations above the mean. Determine the mean of this test.

Answers

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let μ - mean, σ - standard deviation.

Given:

A score of 30 falls three standard deviations below the mean:

μ - 3σ = 30

A score of 60 falls three standard deviations above the mean:

μ + 3σ = 60

Add up the two expressions and find the value of μ:

μ - 3σ + μ + 3σ = 30 + 602μ = 90μ = 45

The mean is 45

Find the measure of angle F if angle D = 88°

Answers

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangles are similar

m<B = m<E

m<C = m<D

m<A = m<F

now, the sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180

angle B is given as 40 (so angle E is also 40) and angle D is given as 88 to find m<F:

40 + 88 + m<F = 180 add like terms

128 + m<F = 180 subtract 128 from both sides

m<F = 52

A triangle is a shape with 3 sides and angles. In order to determine the sides BC, we will use the cosine rule

Given the following parameters

b = 2

c = 5√3

theta = 30 degrees

Substitute

c² = 2² + (5√3)² - 2abcos30
c² = 4 + 75 - 2(2)(5√3)*√3/2

c² = 79 - 30
