what is the first step of the following division problem?

The image of the triangle is missing, so i have attached it.

Also, the options are;

A) The apothem can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

B) The apothem can be found using the tangent ratio.

C) The perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 15 cm.

D) The length of the apothem is approximately 2.5 cm.

E) The area of the equilateral triangle is approximately 65 cm².

Answer:

Options A, B & D are true

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that the triangle is an equilateral triangle.

Thus, the 3 sides equal 8.7 cm.

Now from the image, b is half of one of the sides.

Thus, b = 8.7/2 = 4.35 cm

Now, we want to find the apothem "a".

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have;

a² + 4.35² = 5²

a² = 25 - 18.9225

a² = 6.0775

a = √6.0775

a ≈ 2.5 cm.

Thus, option A is true as Pythagoras theorem was able to calculate the apothem "a"

B) since the main triangle is equilateral, it means each angle is 60°.

Now, the radius line from one corner point to the center will divide the 60° angle into 2 equal parts.

Thus, the angle made by the radius line with the base of the triangle is 60/2 = 30°

Now, from tangent ratios, we know that;

Opposite/Adjacent = tan θ

In the small triangle, opposite is apothem "a" while adjacent is b = 4.35 cm

Thus;

a/4.35 = tan 30

a = 4.35 tan 30

a ≈ 2.5 cm.

Thus, option B is correct as Tangent ratio can be used to find the apothem

C) The perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3x

Where x is length of one side.

One side is 8.7 cm

Thus, perimeter = 3 × 8.7 = 26.1 cm

Thus option C is not correct.

D) From calculations above, we saw that in both options A & B, the apothem is approximately 2.5 cm.

Thus, option D is true.

E) Area of triangle is;

A = ½ × base × height

Base = 8.7 cm

To get height, we will use trigonometric ratio. Thus;

h/8.7 = sin 60°

h = 8.7 sin 60°

Thus;

A = ½ × 8.7 × 8.7 sin 60°

A = 32.77 cm²

Thus is not equal to 65 cm². Thus, option E is not correct.

The statements that are true for the considered equilateral triangle are:

For a regular polygon, the apothem is the line segment from the center of the polygon to the mid of one of the sides of the considered polygon.

For this case, referring to the figure attached below, we have:

Since the triangle is equilateral, there can be 6 congruent triangles like BOD.

Thus, Area of triangle ABC = 6 × Area of triangle BOD

Area of BOD = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2} \times x \times 4.35 = 2.175x \: \rm cm^2[/tex]

Area of ABC = [tex]6 \times 2.175x = 13.05x \: \rm cm^2[/tex]

The length of the apothem is x cm, and can be obtained by using Pythagoras theorem.

We can also use the tangent ratio as the line segment BO is bisecting the internal angle B (each internal angle is of 60 degrees in an equilateral triangle), so angle OBD is of 60/2 = 30 degrees. So using angle and the fact that tangent ratio is ratio of side opposite to angle and the remaining adjacent side(not hypotenuse).

[tex]tan(30^\circ) = x/4.35 \implies x = 4.35 \times \tan(30^\circ) \approx 2.5 \: \rm cm[/tex]

Using Pythagoras theorem too, we can get the value of x as:

[tex]5^2 = 4.35^2 + x^2\\x = \sqrt{25 - 18.9225} \approx 2.465 \: \rm cm \approx 2.5 cm[/tex]

Thus, area of the equilateral triangle ≈ [tex]13.05 \times x \approx 13.05 \times 2.5 = 32.575 \: \rm cm^2[/tex]

This isn't 65 sq. cm.

Thus, the statements that are true for the considered equilateral triangle are:

Answer:

40ft

Step-by-step explanation:

What you need to know is the formula for the air of a rectangle:

the long side * the short side.

First calculate the area of the rectangle in the middle: 3*8=24ft

Then we are left with two right-angled triangles, one on the left and one on the right. If we juxtapose them, we realize that it forms a rectangle whose large side measures 8 and the small 2 so 2*8=16ft.

Finally, just add the area of the middle rectangle with the area of our rectangle formed by the two triangles on the right and on the left. So 16+24=40ft

Answer:

If im incorrect im terribly sorry but at least my answer wasnt bad like the 1st guys

Answer:

Q = mCpΔT where Q is the energy in heat (joules), m is the mass (grams), Cp is the specific heat capacity (J/g/°C), and ΔT is the change in temperature (T2 - T1) in °C.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, since Q = mCpΔT then m = Q/(CpΔT) or (45.0)/(0.780•2.00) = 45/1.56 = 28.846 grams. Since there are 3 sig figs, we round to:

m = 28.8 g

The minimum possible area of each square cardboard piece which is used to produce circular drink coasters is 72.25 in².

The equation of the circle is the equation which is used to represent the circle in the algebraic equation form with the value of center point in the coordinate plane and measure of radius.

The standard form of the equation of the circle can be given as,

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

Here (h,k) is the center of the circle and (r) is the radius of the circle.

A company produces circular drink coasters. the equation which represents the size of a coaster is,

[tex]x^2+ y^2 = 18.0625[/tex]

The units are in the inches. This equation can be written as,

[tex]x^2+ y^2 = \dfrac{289}{16}\\x^2+ y^2 =\left( \dfrac{17}{4}\right)^2[/tex]

Compare it with the equation of the circle, we get,

[tex]h=0\\k=0\\r=\dfrac{17}{4}\rm\; in[/tex]

The radius of the circular coaster is 17/4. The diameter of it is,

[tex]d=2\times\dfrac{17}{4}\\d=\dfrac{17}{2}\rm \; in[/tex]

Now, each coaster is cut from a square piece of cardboard. The diameter of the circular coaster will be equal to the side of the square piece of cardboard.

[tex]a=d=\dfrac{17}{2}\rm\; in[/tex]

The area of the square is the square of its side. Thus, the area of a square piece of cardboard is,

[tex]A=a^2\\A=\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2\\A=72.25\rm\; in^2[/tex]

Thus, the minimum possible area of each square cardboard piece which is used to produce circular drink coasters is 72.25 in².

Using the relation between velocity, distance and time, it is found that:

Velocity is distance divided by time, that is:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

A plane traveling with the wind travels 900 miles in 5 hours, hence:

[tex]v_a + v_w = \frac{900}{5}[/tex]

[tex]v_a + v_w = 180[/tex]

The return trip is against the wind and takes 9 hours, hence:

[tex]v_a - v_w = \frac{900}{9}[/tex]

[tex]v_a - v_w = 100[/tex]

From the first equation, we have that:

[tex]v_w = 180 - v_a{/tex]

Replacing on the second:

[tex]v_a - v_w = 100[/tex]

[tex]v_a - 180 + v_a = 100[/tex]

[tex]2v_a = 280[/tex]

[tex]v_a = 140[/tex]

[tex]v_w = 180 - 140 = 40{/tex]

The random selection of a blue marble is an illustration of probability

You should expected to pull a blue marble 10 times

The given parameters are:

Blue = 16

Red = 12

Green = 12

The total number of marbles is:

Total = 16 + 12 + 12

So we have:

Total = 40

The probability of selecting a blue marble is:

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{16}{40}[/tex]

When 25 marbles are selected, the expected number of blue is:

[tex]Blue = n * P(Blue)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Blue = 25 * 16/40[/tex]

[tex]Blue = 10[/tex]

Hence, the expected number of blue marbles is 10

one simple way to tell if both equations do ever meet or have a solution is by checking their slope, notice in this case the slopes are the same for both, meaning the lines are parallel lines, however, notice both equations are really the same, namely the 2nd equation is really the 1st one in disguise.

since both equations are equal, their graph will be of one line pancaked on top of the other, and the solutions is where they meet, hell, they meet everywhere since one is on top of the other, so infinitely many solutions.

Answer: look at the image

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:   If you sketch this out, you should be able to convince yourself that if you drew a line parallel to the bases and halfway between them, and a vertical at the end of that line, there would be an extra triangle on the longer base that would just fit into the space at the end of the shorter base, if you cut and pasted it.

You should also be able to convince yourself by what you know about similarity that the length of that parallel halfway line is just halfway between the lengths of the bases (you can add them and divide by two).

So your trapezoid (trapezium, we call ’em this side of the pond) has the same area as a rectangle with an altitude equal to the trapezoid’s and a width equal to the sum of those bases divided by two. And since you know about rectangles, you’re home and dry. I suggest you do the sketch, fill in the numbers, and then you’ve completed a model piece of homework that should earn full marks and the teacher’s approval.

The value of n will the terminal side fall on the y-axis at n=3

The terminal side of an angle fall along the positive portion of the y-axis,

If it can written in the form of [tex](90^0)a[/tex]

Where a = positive odd integer,

We hyave given the given angle is,

[tex](870n)^0,[/tex]

The terminal side of an angle theta drawn in angle standard position is the side which isn't the initial side

Now for n=3

[tex](870(3))^0=2610^0[/tex]

The  angle will be 2610°

Its terminal side fall along the positive portion of the y-axis,

[tex]2610^0 = (90^0)a \implies a = 29[/tex]......( Positive odd integer )

Therefore  for n = 3,  the terminal side of the angle (870n)° falls along the positive portion of the y-axis,

For n = 4,

Our angle will be 3480°

Its terminal side fall along the positive portion of the y-axis,

[tex]3480^0 = (90^0)a \implies a = 38.6667 ( Not possible )[/tex]

Therefore for n = 4, the terminal side of the angle (870n)° does not fall along the positive portion of the y-axis

Next is for n = 5,

Our angle will be 4350°

Its terminal side fall along the positive portion of the y-axis,

[tex]4350^0 = (90^0)a \implies a = 48.333.. ( Not possible )[/tex]

Thus, for n = 5,  the terminal side of the angle (870n)° does not fall along the positive portion of the y-axis,

For n = 6,

Our angle will be 5220°

Its terminal side fall along the positive portion of the y-axis,

[tex]5220^0 = (90^0)a \implies a = 58..... ( Not possible )[/tex]

Thus, for n = 6,  the terminal side of the angle (870n)° does not fall along the positive portion of the y-axis.

Therefore,the value of n will the terminal side fall on the y-axis at n=3.
