Answer:
a = 36 and a = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometric mean of two numbers is the square root of the product of the two numbers.
Say for example we have the numbers x and y, the geometric mean z is mathematically;
z = √xy
For the first question, our z is 12, x and y are 4 and a respectively.
12 = √4a
square both sides
144 = 4a
a = 144/4
a = 36
For the second question
z is 9, x and y are 3 and a respectively
9 = √3a
square both sides
81 = 3a
a = 81/3
a = 27
Answer:
6.2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Use pythagorean theorem to find b:
b = √(2.8² - 2.7²) = √0.55 = 0.7 (nearest tenth)
Perimeter of triangle = sum of all its sides = 2.8 + 2.7 + 0.7
Perimeter = 6.2 meters
Do you have any other information or context?
The answer is 1/4 as 3/4-2/4 is 1/4
The answer is 20.5 feet, because when you draw out the triangle and label the angles and given sides and then use the law of sines, you end up with it.
