He height of a triangle is 9 m less than is base the area is 56 m^2 what is the length of the base?

1 answer:

4 0

Formula for area of triangle:
A= 1/2 bh
Where b is the base and h is the height of the triangle.
Here, h= b-9
A=56 m^2
Put values in formula.
56= 1/2 (b) (b-9)
56=b(b-9)/2
Multiply both sides by 2.
112=b^2-9b
or
b^2-9b-112=0
Factorise the equation.
b^2-16b+7b-112=0
b(b-16)+7(b-16)=0
(b+7)(b-16)=0
Using zero factor theorem.
b+7=0 or b=-7
and
b-16=0 or b=16
Ignore the value b=-7, because length cannot be negative.
So length of base=16 m

Answer: Base=16m

In the circle below, suppose m VUX = 152° and mZUVW = 77º. Find the following.

bezimeni [28]

Given:

In the circle, $m(\overarc{VUX})=152^\circ$ and $m(\angle MUV)=77^\circ$ .

To find:

The following measures:

(a) $m\angle VUX$

(b) $m\angle UXW$

Solution:

According to the central angle theorem, the central angle is always twice of the subtended angle intercepted on the same same arc.

$m(VUX)=2\times m\angle VWX$

$152^\circ=2\times m\angle VWX$

$\dfrac{152^\circ}{2}=m\angle VWX$

$76^\circ=m\angle VWX$

In a cyclic quadrilateral, the opposite angles are supplementary angles.

UVWX is a cyclic quadrilateral. So,

$m\angle VUX+m\angle VWX=180^\circ$ [Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral]

$m\angle VUX+76^\circ=180^\circ$

$m\angle VUX=180^\circ-76^\circ$

$m\angle VUX=104^\circ$

Now,

$m\angle UXW+m\angle UVW=180^\circ$ [Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral]

$m\angle UXW+77^\circ =180^\circ$

$m\angle UXW=180^\circ-77^\circ$

$m\angle UXW=103^\circ$

Therefore, $m\angle VUX=104^\circ$ and $m\angle UXW=103^\circ$ .

Simply the attached question

Finger [1]

Answer:

=x⁴−x³−14x²

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Let's simplify step-by-step.</h3>

x²(3x²+5x−4)−2x²(x²+3x+5)

<h3>Distribute:</h3>

=(x²)(3x²)+(x²)(5x)+(x²)(−4)+−2x⁴+−6x³+−10x²

=3x⁴+5x³+−4x²+−2x⁴+−6x³+−10x²

<h3>Combine Like Terms:</h3>

=3x⁴+5x³+−4x²+−2x⁴+−6x³+−10x²

=(3x⁴+−2x⁴)+(5x³+−6x³)+(−4x²+−10x²)

=x⁴+−x³+−14x²

=x⁴−x³−14x²

Brainliest for whoever explains

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

A rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 ends of the rectangular prism are squares while the other 4 sides are rectangles. A cross section parallel to the base would be a rectangle as the base is a rectangle as well.
