In the △ABC, the height AN = 24 in, BN = 18 in, AC = 40 in. Find AB and BC.
btw i need two answers for bc not just one
Answers
Answer:
AB = 30 inch
BC = 14 inch or BC = 50 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a drawing. Please see the attachment. All measurements are in inches.
Consider the two triangles:
∆ ABC and ∆ AB'C
1. Looking only at ∆ ABC. Since this is not a rectangular triangle, let's first consider ∆ ANC, so we can calculate NC.
AN is the height and there fore is perpendicular to NC and thus also to BC.
In ∆ ANC
AN² + NC² = AC²
We want to calculate NC, so:
NC² = AC² - AN²
Given: AC = 40 and AN = 24
NC² = 40² + 24²
NC² = 1600 + 576
NC² = 1024
NC = +-SQRT(1024)
NC = 32
NC = NB + BC
We want to know BC
BC = NC - NB
Given: NB = BN = 18 and we just calculated NC to be 32 so...
BC = 32 - 18
BC = 14
2. Looking only at ∆ AB'C
AN is the height and there fore is perpendicular to B'C. Let's consider ∆ AB'N, so we can calculate AB'.
AN is the height and there fore is perpendicular to B'N, which means it has an angle of 90° in ∆ AB'N.
In ∆ AB'N
c² = a² + b²
AB'² = AN² + B'N²
Given: AN = 24 and B'N = 18
AB'² = 24² + 18²
AB'² = 576 + 324
AB'² = 900
AB' = +-SQRT(900)
AB' = 30
In ∆ AB'C
with AB' = 30 and AC = 40
c² = a² + b²
B'C² = AB'² + AC²
B'C² = 30² + 40²
B'C² = 900 + 1600
B'C² = 2500
B'C = +-SQRT(2500)
B'C = 50
Now we have our answers.
Extra:
Please look at the picture again, but now concentrate on the indicated 50 and - 50...
I am trying to explain something about the meaning of the outcome of mathematical calculations like:
c² = 2500
c = +- SQRT(2500)
c = 50 or c = - 50
Depending on where you want to start from, you can "move" 50 inch in one direction or 50 inch in the opposite direction, hence the -50 inch. Please let me explain why I am making a fuss...
1). Let's consider ∆ AB'C. Going from B' to C, you "move" -50 inch form B' towards C. This 50 inch is what we calculated earlier, but the we neglected to explain why we discarded the minus value of the SQRT... We just stated it to be only the positive value! Normally we give no meaning to the negative variant of it... Well, is this true in this case?
2). Let's consider ∆ ABC'. Going from B to C', you "move" 50 inch form B towards C'. Please understand that the direction is opposite that of - 50 inch in 1).
It is important to understand that a negative sign means the 180° in the direction of the other way.
In general. When calculating a square side by using the SQRT, you carefully need to consider if you can discard the -
minus value of your calculated outcome.
Not always, but usually there is some sort of meaning to the negative part of the SQRT, you just need to be willing to understand what it possibly could mean.
I hope this has made some sense to you :-).

Describe fully the single transformation that maps triangle a onto triangle b
Answers
Answer:
reflection of Δa about y=2 results in Δb
Step-by-step explanation:
The single transformation that maps triangle a onto triangle b is: Reflection about y=2
Triangle A should be reflected about y=2 to map it onto Triangle B.
Here, from the given figure we get,
Coordinates of the vertices of triangle (A) are A(1, 3), B(2, 3) and C(1, 5)
After transformation of triangle A, coordinates of the vertices A', B' and C' of the image triangle (B) are,
A'(1, 1), B'(2, 1) and C'(1, -1)
Lets choose point A to find the rule of transformation,
A(1, 3) → A'(1, 1)
Rule → (x, y) → (x, 2 - (y - 2)) or (x, y) → (x, 4 - y)
It shows triangle (A) has been reflected across a line y = 2.
Therefore, Triangle A should be reflected about y=2 to map it onto Triangle B.

Answers
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of cranberry to blueberry muffins sold was 2/3.
This means that for every 3 blueberry muffins, 2 cranberry muffins were sold.
The ratio of blueberry to cinnamon muffins sold was 4/1.
This means that for every cinnamon muffin, 4 blueberry muffins were sold.
In other words, the ratio of cinnamon muffins to blueberry was 1/4.
60 blueberry muffins were sold on Monday.
This means that the number of cranberry muffins sold was:
2/3 * 60 = 40 cranberry muffins
This also means that the number of cinnamon muffins sold was:
1/4 * 60 = 15 cinnamon muffins
To find how many more cranberry muffins were sold than cinnamon muffins:
40 - 15 = 25 muffins
25 more cranberry muffins were sold.

Answers
Answer:
12kg apple will make 189 more sandwiches
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are told that 6kg of apple was used to make 90 more sandwiches and we need to know the number of sandwiches that can be made from 12kg of apples.
Now;
6kg made 90 sandwiches
12kg will make x sandwiches
To get x, we simply cross multiply
6 * x = 12 * 90
x = (12 * 90)/6
x = 2 * 90
x = 180 sandwiches

The 125 is the total perimeter. So, first you subtract 10 from 125 and you get 115. And then you divide 2 on both sides and you get x=57.5

2b) A farmer is building a pen inside a barn. The pen will be in the shape of a right triangle.
The farmer has 14 feet of barn wall to use for one side of the pen and wants another side of the pen to be 15 feet long.
a. To the nearest tenth of a foot, find all possible lengths for the third side of the triangle.
b. The farmer wants the area of the pen to be as large as possible. What length should he choose for the third side? Justify your answer.
Answers
Answer:
For the pen to be as large as possible, the length the farmer should choose for the third side should be 20.52 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of one side of the right triangle = 14 feet
The length of the other side = 15 feet
Therefore, the length of the third side can be one of the following side lengths;
[tex]S_{3,1} = \sqrt{14^2 + 15^2} = \sqrt{421} = 20.52 \ feet[/tex]
[tex]S_{3,2} = \sqrt{15^2 - 14^2} = \sqrt{29} = 5.39 \ feet[/tex]
The possible lengths of the third side of the triangle are;
Third side = 20.52 feet and
Third side = 5.39 feet
b. For the area of the pen to be as large as possible, we have;
With third side = 20.52 feet, area of the pen = 0.5 × 15 × 14 = 105 ft²
With third side = 5.39 feet, area of the pen = 0.5 × 5.39 × 14 = 37.7 ft²
Therefore, for the pen to be as large as possible, the farmer should choose 20.52 feet as he third side.
Answer:
a. c ≈ 20.5 ft (first possibility)
b ≈ 5.4 ft(other possibility)
b. The farmer should choose the side that has 20.5 ft for the third side because it provide more larger area as needed by the farmer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pen the farmer wants to build is a right angle triangle. one side of the triangle is 14 ft while another side is 15 ft.
A right angle triangle has opposite side, adjacent side and an hypotenuse which is the longest side.
a. To the nearest tenth of a foot, find all possible lengths for the third side of the triangle.
Pythagoras theorem can be used to solve any sides of the triangle when given 2 sides.
We are not told which side is the hypotenuse or the adjacent or the opposites side. Therefore , the possible length for the third side can be computed using Pythagoras theorem.
c² = a² + b²
c = hypotenuse
while a and b can be any of opposite or adjacent sides. The first possible length can be when both sides are the legs of the triangle (no hypotenuse)
c² = 14² + 15²
c² = 196 + 225
c² = 421
c= √421
c = 20.5182845287
c ≈ 20.5 ft (first possibility)
The other possibility of the third side is when the hypotenuse is Known and one other side(either adjacent or opposite). We can use only 15 since it should be the longest side.
c² = a² + b²
c² - a² = b²
15² - 14² = b²
225 - 196 = b²
b² = 29
b = √29
b = 5.38516480713
b ≈ 5.4 ft(other possibility)
b. The farmer wants the area of the pen to be as large as possible. What length should he choose for the third side? Justify your answer.
The two scenarios are as follows
First area
area = 1/2 × base × height
area = 1/2 × 14 × 15 = 210/2 = 105 ft²
Second area
area = 1/2 × base × height
area = 1/2 × 5.4 × 14 = 75.6/2 = 37.8 ft²
The farmer should choose the side that has 20.5 ft for the third side because it provide more larger area as needed by the farmer.

find the value of "y" log(4y+1)=log(y-7)-2log2
Answers
Answer:
y = -8/15
Step-by-step explanation:
log (4y + 1) = log (y - 7) - 2log2
log (4y + 1) = log (y - 7) - log2² (power law)
log (4y + 1) = log [(y - 7)/4]
4y + 1 = (y - 7)/4 (remove log)
4(4y + 1) = y - 7
16y - y = -8
15y = -8
y = -8/15
