Answer 1

Answer:  18/7

This approximates to 2.5714

=====================================================

Explanation:

The two triangles are similar. We can use the AA (angle angle) theorem to prove this claim.

Because [tex]\triangle ABC \sim \triangle ADE[/tex], this means:

side AB corresponds to side AD. The letters from AB are the first two letters of ABC while AD are the first two letters from ADE.side BC corresponds to DE. We have BC as the last two letters of ABC and DE the last two letters of ADE

As those bullet points above mention, the order of ABC and ADE matters to allow us to pair up the corresponding angles and corresponding sides.

From that, we can form the proportion below to solve for x

AB/AD = BC/DE

3/(3+4) = x/6

3/7 = x/6

3*6 = 7*x

18 = 7x

7x = 18

x = 18/7

You could convert this to the approximate decimal form 18/7 = 2.5714, but I think it's better to keep it as a fraction.

i think probably 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

PQ = RS

2x+3 = 4x-3

x = 3

PTQ = RTS

9y-3x-1 = 5x+7y-5

2y-8x = -4

y-4x = -2

y-4(3) = -2

y-12 = -2

y = -2+12

y = 10

so PTQ = 9y-3x-1

9(10)-3(3)-1

90-9-1

Answer: x = 43, ABC = 180 degrees, DBC = 48 Degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

(3(x+1))+(x+5)=180 degrees

4x+8=180

4x=172

x=43

using these we plug in.

ABC = is 3(44) + (48) = 180

DBC = 43+5 = 48

Answers

Answer:

c = 13

m∡A = 60°

m∡B = 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 5-12-13 triangle. However, to make sure, I will put the steps.

Allow for each sides to be denoted as a-b-c, in which c is the hypotenuse (longest side). Set the equation:

a² + b² = c²

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

5² + 12² = c²

Simplify. First, solve the exponents, and then add:

(5²) = 5 * 5 = 25

(12²) = 12 * 12 = 144

25 + 144 = c²

c² = 169

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, c, by rooting both sides:

√c² = √169

c = √169 = √(13 * 13) = 13

c = 13

13 is your answer for c.

Note the measurements of the angles. We know that this is a 30-60-90 triangle, and so it will be easy to figure it out. Note that the corresponding angles will depend on that of the opposite side's measurement lengths. The hypotenuse will always be on the opposite side of the largest angle (as given), as c, the longest side, is opposite of ∡C, which is the largest angle (90°). Based on this information, it means that ∡A would be 60° (as it is opposite of the middle number, 12), and ∡B would be 30° (opposite of the smallest number, 5).


3. You miss a free throw 3/10 of the time
A) likely
B) unlikely
C) certain
D) equally likely

Answers

Out of every 10 free throws, you miss only 3.

Converting to a percentage: 3/10 = .3 x 100 = 30%.

Therefore, 3/10=30%. So, you only miss 30% of the time, which means that you make the free throws 7/10 of the time or 70%.

The answer would be that you are likely to make the free throws, so answer A.) is correct.

You miss a free throw 3/10 of the time is unlikely event. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

What is the probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event.

We know that, probability of an event = Number of favourable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

Given that, miss a free throw 3/10 of the time.

Here, 3/10 =0.3

The total probability is always equal to unity.

If the event is “certain” to happen, the probability will be 1.

If the event is “likely” to happen, the probability will be between 1/2 and 1.

If the event has an “equal chance” to happen or not, the probability will be 1/2.

If the event is “unlikely” to happen, the probability will be between 0 and 1/2.

You miss a free throw 3/10 of the time is unlikely event.

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
