Answers:
angle2 = 160 degrees
angle3 = 10 degrees
============================================
Explanation:
The two triangles are congruent. We can prove this using SSS. The upper triangle is a mirrored copy of the lower triangle.
Since angle1 = 160 degrees, this means angle2 = 160 also. This is because the corresponding pieces of congruent triangles match up. Or you could use the second part of the hint which says "Opposite angles in a rhombus are congruent".
Let x be the measure of angle 3. For either isosceles triangle, it has congruent base angles measured x degrees. They add to the 160 degrees mentioned earlier to get a total of 180.
160+x+x = 180
2x+160 = 180
2x = 180-160
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10
Angle 3 is 10 degrees.
I think the answer is 2/15
Answer:
I don't know what the options are, but to solve t/8 = 2, you have to multiply by 8.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x = 500 yd
y = 250 yd
A(max) = 125000 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let´s call x the side parallel to the stream ( only one side to be fenced )
y the other side of the rectangular area
Then the perimeter of the rectangle is p = 2*x + 2* y ( but only 1 x will be fenced)
p = x + 2*y
1000 = x + 2 * y ⇒ y = (1000 - x )/ 2
And A(r) = x * y
Are as fuction of x
A(x) = x * ( 1000 - x ) / 2
A(x) = 1000*x / 2 - x² / 2
A´(x) = 500 - 2*x/2
A´(x) = 0 500 - x = 0
x = 500 yd
To find out if this value will bring function A to a maximum value we get the second derivative
C´´(x) = -1 C´´(x) < 0 then efectevly we got a maximum at x = 500
The side y = ( 1000 - x ) / 2
y = 500/ 2
y = 250 yd
A(max) = 250 * 500
A(max) = 125000 yd²
