Given right triangle ABC with altitude BD drawn to hypotenuse AC. If AD = 12
and AC = 15, what is the length of AB in simplest radical form?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = BD

x/3 = 12/x

x² = 36

x = [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex]

x = 6

Pls help as I'm preparing for my exams

Answers

Answer:

Hope this helps you..

Brainliest plsssss

All the Best for your exams

Step-by-step explanation:

let the breadth=x

the length  =x+15

given perimeter= 150

Perimeter of rectangle = 2x(l+b)

150 = 2( x+ x+15)                            

75 = 2x +15

60 = 2x

30=x  

therefore breadth = 30 cm  

length   = 30 +15  = 45 cm

Verification:

150 = 2( 45+30)

150 = 2(75)

150 = 150  

LHS=RHS

Hence, proved..

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth(b) be x . Then by the question

Length (L) = ( x + 15 )cm

Perimeter = 150 cm

or 2( L + b) = 150

2 ( x + 15 + x ) = 150

2x + 15 = 75

2x = 75 - 15

2x = 60

x = 30 cm

Therefore breadth or width is 30 cm

Similarly

Length = 30 + 15 = 45

hope it helps :)

what is the area?

shape below

358 in^2
94 in^2
168 in^2
242 in^2

Answers

Answer:

Area of rectangle= 24 × 7 = 168

Area of trapezium = ((a+b)/2)h = 74

Total area = 168 + 74 = 242

Answer:

242in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of parallelogram is

1/2(a+b)×h

a=13in

b=24in

h=4in

= 1/2(13+24)×4

=1/2(37)×4

so the area of the parallelogram is

=74in^2

Area of rectangle is

L×B

L=24in

B=7in

=24×7

=168in^2

so the area will be the sum of the area of parallelogram and rectangle

=74in^2+ 168in^2

=242in^2

70°


104°

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "[tex]\overarc{ADC} = m\angle CPD + m\angle DPA = 186[/tex]"

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the image of the question:

In the circle p:

[tex]\to m\angle APB + m\angle BPC + m\angle CPD + m\angle DPA = 360^{\circ} \\\\\to 70 + 104 + m\angle CPD + m\angle DPA = 360\\\\\to m\angle CPD + m\angle DPA = 360 - 70 - 104 = 186[/tex]

Let P is in the center

[tex]\to[/tex] arc AD= [tex]m\angle APD[/tex]

[tex]\to[/tex] arc DC = [tex]m\angle CPD[/tex]  

[tex]\to[/tex] arc BC = [tex]m\angle BPC[/tex]  

arc AB =

When D is on arc AC:

[tex]\to[/tex]arc ADC =  arc AD  + arc DC  

[tex]\to[/tex]arc ADC = [tex]m \angle CPD + m\angle DPA = 186[/tex]

A game is played with the following rules. Three ordinary coins are flipped and count as a single "turn" in the game.
Each coin could land on heads or tails. After their turn a player is given a certain number of points depending on the
outcome.
•If the result is 3 heads, the player receives +4 points.
• If the result is 2 heads, the player receives +2 points.
• If the result is anything else, the player receives -1 point.
What is the expected value of the number of points a player will receive after a turn?

Answers

Answer:   0.75

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

Explanation:

H = heads

T = tails

Something like HHT means we get two heads in a row at first, followed by one tail. The order matters. Since there are 2 sides per coin, and 3 coins, this leads to 2^3 = 8 different possible ways to flip three coins.

Those 8 outcomes are:

HHHHHTHTHHTTTHHTHTTTHTTT

Again the order matters.

------------

Now let's define the following events

A = event of getting three headsB = event of getting exactly two headsC = event of getting 1 head, or getting 0 heads

There's only one way to get three heads, and that's HHH. So P(A) = 1/8.

There are three ways to get exactly two heads. Those three ways are: HHT, HTH, THH. This means P(B) = 3/8.

From those two probabilities, we then know that P(C) = 4/8 = 1/2 since there are 1+3 = 4 ways to get two or more heads, leaving 8-4 = 4 ways to get the other situations.

Now let's define function notation V(A) to mean "the net value of event A occurring". It's the number of points you receive if event A happens. We are given the following info:

V(A) = 4V(B) = 2V(C) = -1

From here, multiply the probability values with their corresponding net values

P(A)*V(A) = (1/8)*(4) = 0.5P(B)*V(B) = (3/8)*(2) = 0.75P(C)*V(C) = (1/2)*(-1) = -0.5

Finally, add up those results to get the expected value: 0.5+0.75+(-0.5) = 0.75

Each time a turn happens, we expect on average to get 0.75 points

Imagine a scenario where you play the game 10,000 times. If you record the result of each turn and then compute the arithmetic mean, you should get somewhere close to 0.75; it likely wont be 0.75 exactly due to the nature of theoretical probability and empirical probability not being perfectly aligned. However, due to the law of large numbers, the two should be very close when you do a large number of trials.

Because we're dealing with averages, it is possible to get a decimal value as the answer even though the point values of events A,B,C are integers.
