A right triangle has one leg that is 4 more than twice the other. The area of the triangle is 35. Find the length of the sides.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

one leg = 5

other leg = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = length of shorter leg

let '2x + 4' = length of longer leg

A = 1/2bh

35 = 1/2x · 2x + 4

35 = x² + 4

x² + 4 - 35 = 0

(x + 7)(x - 5) = 0

x = -7 and x = 5

We can eliminate -7 as an answer since a length cannot be negative

Answer 2

Answer:

The shorter leg = 5

The longer leg = 14

The hypotenuse = 14.866.....

Step-by-step explanation:

if we represent the smaller leg as "x" we firstly represent the longer leg as...

Longer leg = 2x + 4

(We can do this based on the question)

Now we need to undersstadn t in a right angle triangle the legs can be used as a height and base. So we can make the following equation.

[tex]A_{triangle} = \frac{bh}{2}[/tex]

Substitute the lengths of the legs as based and height and get...

[tex]A_{triangle} = \frac{(2x + 4)(x)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]35 = \frac{2x^{2} + 4x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]35 = x^{2} + 2x[/tex]

[tex]35 = x(x + 2)[/tex]

From here we can see that x = 5.

Therefore the lengths are as follows...

The shorter leg = x = 5

The longer leg = 2(5) + 4 = 14

The hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{5^{2} + 14^{2} }[/tex]

The hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{5^{2} +14^{2} }[/tex]

The hypotenuse = 14.866.....

Given the following data;

Base of triangle = 120 feet.

Height = 115 feet.

To find the area of triangle;

Area of triangle = ½*base*height

Area of triangle = ½*120*115

Area of triangle = 60*115

Area of triangle = 6900ft²

A granular substance such as sand naturally settles into a cone-shaped pile when poured from a small aperture. Its height depends on the humidity and adhesion between granules. The angle of elevation of a pile, θ, is called the angle of repose. If the height of a pile of sand is 15 feet and its diameter is approximately 52 feet, determine the angle of repose. Round answer to nearest degree.

Answers

Answer:

The angle of elevation of the pile is 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Height = 15 ft

Diameter = 52 ft

so radius r = D/2 = 52/2 = 26 ft

Now, to get the angle of elevation.

given the details in the question,

we can say; the given height is the opposite which is 15 ft.

Also the radius is adjacent which is 26 ft

using SOH CAH TOA

TOA; Tan = Opposite / Adjacent

so

tan∅ = 15 ft / 26 ft

tan∅ = 0.5769

∅ = tan⁻¹( 0.5769 )

∅ = 29.98° ≈ 30°

Therefore, The angle of elevation of the pile is 30°

In ΔQRS, r = 5.1 inches, s = 2.4 inches and ∠Q=26°. Find the length of q, to the nearest 10th of an inch.

Answers

Answer:

The length of QR to the nearest tenth of a foot is 287.28 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a right angled Triangle QRS have base SQ, perpendicular RS and Hypotenuse QR.

∠S = 90°

∠Q = 17°

Perpendicular = 84 ft

We know that for a right angle triangle

SinΘ = perpendicular/Hypotenuse

Sin ∠Q = 84/QR

QR = 84/sin(17°)

QR = 84/0.2924

QR = 287.2777

QR = 287.28 feet

The cosine rule is used to determine the length of side q. Then the length of side q is 5.34 inches.

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry deals with the relationship between the sides and angles of a triangle.

In ΔQRS, r = 5.1 inches, s = 2.4 inches and ∠Q=26°.

Then the length of q will be given by the cosine rule.

[tex]\rm q = \sqrt{r^2 + s^2 - 2rs \cos Q}\\\\q = \sqrt{5.1^2 + 2.4^2 - 2 \times 5.1 \times 2.4 \cos 26^o}\\\\q = \sqrt{26.01 + 5.76 - 24.48 \times 0.89879}\\\\q = \sqrt{50.49 - 22}\\\\q = \sqrt{28.49}\\\\q = 5.34 \ inches[/tex]

The length of the q is 5.34 inches.

2. Jada's friend has a dog that weighs 90 pounds. Here is a diagram Jada
drew that represents the weight of her friend's dog and the weight of her
so

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Since, 20% of the total diagram is represented by one fifth part of the total length.

Therefore, by adding all parts we will get 100% weight of the adult puppy.

20% of the part = 9 pounds

So the total weight of the adult puppy = 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9

                                                         = 45 pounds

b). Weight of the puppy =  9 pounds

    Weight of a adult = 45 pounds

    Therefore, fraction that represents the weight of the puppy as compared to the weight of an adult = [tex]\frac{9}{45}[/tex]

                                         = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Answer:

Question 1 Answer: The adult weight will be 45 pounds.

Question 2 Answer: The puppy is ⅕ of its adult weight.

solve 5(x-1)^1/3 = 20

Answers

Answer:

x = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, we write it in radical form:

[tex]5\, \sqrt[3]{x-1} = 20[/tex]

Then, we divide both sides by 5 to isolate the root:

[tex]\sqrt[3]{x-1} = \frac{20}{5} \\\sqrt[3]{x-1} =4[/tex]

and next, we raise both sides of the equation to the power 3 so as to free the expression in x from the root:

[tex]x-1=4^3\\x-1=64[/tex]

now we add 1 to both sides to isolate x:

x = 65

A service station checks Mr. Smith's radiator and finds it contains only 40% antifreeze. If the radiator holds 20 quarts and is full, how many quarts must be replaced with pure antifreeze in order to bring it up to a required 80% antifreeze?

Answers

Answer:

8 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

Step One: Figure out how much 40% is by making an equation:

Since we are looking for a percentage, we use cross multiplication to find X.

[tex]\frac{x}{20} = \frac{40}{100}[/tex]

Step Two: multiply 20 by 40 to start cross multiplying:

20 times 40 is 800, so replace the 40 by 800 in the equation.

[tex]\frac{x}{20} = \frac{800}{100}[/tex]

Step Three: divide 800 by 100, and we will have X:

800/100=8

X=8 aka 8 quarts

BE is parallel to CD.

AE=6 cm, ED=4 cm, AB=4.5 cm, BE=4.8 cm.


Calculate the length of CD.

Answers

Answer:

CD = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

[tex]AE=6 cm,\ ED=4 cm,\ AB=4.5 cm,\ BE=4.8 cm.[/tex]

Required

Find CD

To calculate CD, we first calculate BC using the following equivalent ratio

[tex]AB : BC = AE:ED[/tex]

Substitute values for AB, AE and ED

[tex]4.5 : BC = 6 : 4[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{4.5 }{ BC} = \frac{6 }{ 4}[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]BC * 6 = 4.5 * 4[/tex]

[tex]BC * 6 = 18[/tex]

Divide through by 6

[tex]BC = 3[/tex]

To calculate CD,

We make use of the following equivalent ratio

[tex]AB : BE = AC : CD[/tex]

Where

[tex]AC = AB + BC[/tex]

[tex]AC = 4.5 + 3[/tex]

[tex]AC = 7.5[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]AB : BE = AC : CD[/tex]

[tex]4.5 : 4.8 = 7.5 : CD[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{4.5 }{ 4.8 }= \frac{7.5 }{ CD}[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]4.5 * CD = 7.5 * 4.8[/tex]

Divide through by 4.5

[tex]CD = \frac{7.5 * 4.8}{4.5}[/tex]

[tex]CD = \frac{36}{4.5}[/tex]

[tex]CD = 8[/tex]

a cell phone and phone case cost 110$ in total. the cell phone costs 100$ more than the phone case. How much was the cell phone?

Answers

Answer:

$100

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total cost was $110 and that the phone is $100 more than the case. With this, we can figure out how much the case is, and use that information to find the price of the phone.

Case price = total price - 100

= 110 - 100

Case price = 10

Now that we know that the case price is $10, we can figure out the phone's price.

Phone price = total price - case price

= 110 - 10

= 100

The phone costs $100

What is pie chart?

The "pie chart," which divides the circular statistical graphic into sectors or sections to illustrate the numerical problems, is also known as a "circle chart." A proportionate portion of the total is denoted by each sector. At that point, the pie chart is the most effective method for determining something's composition.

Given 24 hours schedule of Clair in which,

school time is 8 hours, playing time is 4 hours, homework time is 2 hours, sleeping time is 8 hours and chores time is 2 hours.

if we calculate total time in percentage than 24 hours will be equal to 100%

and their will be 5 sections in chart,

equivalent time for school in percent is 100/24 x 8 =33.33%

equivalent time for sleeping in percent is 100/24 x 8 =33.33%

equivalent time for homework in percent is 100/24 x 2 = 8.33%

equivalent time for chores in percent is 100/24 x 2 = 8.33%

equivalent time for playing in percent is 100/24 x 4 = 16.66%

Hence the pie chart will have 5 sections and sleeping time will be 33.33%.
