8 0

Answer:

(3/4)a

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at K is 120°, so the angle at L is its supplement: 60°. That makes triangle FKL an equilateral triangle with a base of FL = a. The vertex at K is centered over the base, so is a/2 from G.

The midsegement length is the average of GK and FL, so is ...

midsegment = (GK +FL)/2 = (a/2 +a)/2

midsegment = (3/4)a

How many terms are in the algebraic expression Negative 7 + 12 x 4 minus 5 y 8 + x?

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Therefore,

There are Four i.e 4 terms in the expression,

$-7+12x^{4}-5y^{8}+x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebraic Expression:

An algebraic expression is a mathematical expression that consists of variables, numbers and operations.

Variables with the coefficient is called as Term.
Number is also a term.

Here the Expression is

$-7+12x^{4}-5y^{8}+x$

So,

$-7 = One\ Term\\12x^{4}=Second\ Term\\-5y^{8}=Third\ Term\\x=Fourth\ Term$

In all there are Four i.e 4 terms in the given expressions.

Therefore,

There are Four i.e 4 terms in the expression,

$-7+12x^{4}-5y^{8}+x$

The Rotation R maps all 60° about O the center of the regular hexagon. State the image of B for the following rotation.

Andru [333]

It is B. Since each angle is 60 degrees, if you rotate B counterclockwise 6 times, it means that you rotated B 360 degrees. Therefore, the image of B would be B.
