Answer:

answer is 52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

BA = 17, BF = 6, and CG = 9

triangle sides BF and BH are congruent because they are tangent lines along the same curve

BH is equal to 6 since BF is equal to 6

this applies to CG and CF and AG and AH

CG is equal to 9

so CF is equal to 9

now we add 6 + 9 for the measurement of side CB

CB = 15

now we do the same for the other two sides

we already know BA = 17 so we subtract it from BH = 6 to find the measurement of AH

AH is equal to 11 and is tangent across the same curve as AG

AG = 11

now we add AG to CG

11 + 9 = 20

now we know all the side lengths

CB + BA + AC = Perimeter

15 + 17 + 20 = 52

Perimeter of triangle BCA = 52

I don't know why I went through all the trouble if I know no one is going to see this :'(. I just thought the other guy gave the wrong reasons

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Events A and B are independent if the following holds true:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B)

where P(A ∩ B) is the probability of A and B, P(A) is the probability of A, and P(B) is the probability of B.

Setting A = "snow" and B = "cold weather", and plugging in the above numbers will give you the answer.

The top of a ladder is 4m up a vertical wall.The bottom is 2m from the wall.The coordinate axes are the wall and the horizontal

mash [69]

Answer:

Part a) $y=-2x+4$

Part b) The coordinates of the point are $(\frac{4}{3},\frac{4}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Find the equation representing the ladder

we have the ordered pairs

(0,4) and (2,0)

Find the slope

$m=(0-4)/(2-0)=-2$

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=-2\\b=4$

substitute

$y=-2x+4$

Part b) A square box just fits under the ladder.Find the coordinates of the point where the box touches the ladder.

If the box is a square

the x-coordinate of the point where the box touches the ladder must be equal to the y-coordinate

x=y

$y=-2x+4$

substitute

$x=-2x+4\\3x=4\\x=\frac{4}{3}$

$y=x=\frac{4}{3}$

therefore

The coordinates of the point are $(\frac{4}{3},\frac{4}{3})$

Nata [24]

Answer:

492 0/10

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the perimeter is 4 times the length of the side, now we know that this side "l" is given by:

l = 4 in * 24 + 23 * 5 ft

l = 96 in + 115 ft

Now, we pass the inches to pes, knowing that 1 foot equals 12 inches, so

96 in * 1 ft / 12 in = 8 ft

therefore replacing it remains:

l = 8 ft + 115 ft

l = 123 ft

now the perimeter:

p = 123 * 4

p = 492

to change to a mixed number:

4920/10 = 492 0/10
