In geometry, it is always advantageous to draw a diagram from the given information in order to visualize the problem in the context of the given.
A figure has been drawn to define the vertices and intersections.
The given lengths are also noted.
From the properties of a kite, the diagonals intersect at right angles, resulting in four right triangles.
Since we know two of the sides of each of the right triangles, we can calculate their heights which in turn are the segments which make up the other diagonal.
From triangle A F G, we use Pythagoras theorem to find
h1=A F=sqrt(20*20-12*12)=sqrt(256)=16
From triangle DFG, we use Pythagoras theorem to find
h2=DF=sqrt(13*13-12*12)=sqrt(25) = 5
So the length of the other diagonal equals 16+5=21 cm
Note that: (10x - 61) & (x + 10) are supplementary angles, and (10x-61) & (18y + 5) are vertical angles
10x - 61 + x + 10 = 180
Simplify
11x - 51 = 180
Isolate the x
11x - 51 (+51) = 180 (+51)
11x = 231
Divide 11 from both sides
11x/11 = 231/11
Divide
x = 21
180 = 18y + 5 + x + 10
180 = 18y + 5 + (21) + 10
Simplify
180 = 18y + 36
Subtract 36 from both sides
180 (-36) = 18y + 36 (-36)
144 = 18y
Divide 18 from both sides
144/18 = 18y/18
y = 144/18
y = 8
x = 21, y = 8 are your answers
hope this helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 950 students at Hanover High School. The ratio of the number of freshmen to all students is 3:10. This means that the number of freshmen is 3/10 × total number of students.
Number of freshmen = 3/10×950 =285 freshmen
The ratio of the number of sophomore to all students is 1:2. This means that the number of sophomore is 1/2 × total number of students.
Number of sophomore = 1/2×950 =475 sophomore
The ratio of the number of freshmen to sophomore is the number of freshmen/ the number of
sophomore.
It becomes 285/475 = 57/95
Answer:
7 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Height : Diameter
14 : 6
H : 3
H/14 = 3/6
H = 14 × 3/6
H = 7
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
because if she has 8 more red cubes that yellow than that would mean it would become 12
