The lengths of the bases of the right trapezoid are 9 cm and 18 cm. The length of a longer leg is 15 cm. Find the area of the trapezoid.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Firstly, we will draw figure

now, we will draw a altitude from B to DC that divides trapezium into rectangle and right triangle

because of opposite sides of rectangle ABMD are congruent

so,

DM=AB=9

CM=CD-DM

CM=18-9

CM=9

now, we can find BM by using Pythagoras theorem

BM=√(BC^2-CM^2)

now, we can plug values

we get

BM=√(15^2-9^2)

BM=12

now, we can find area of trapezium

A=(1)/(2) (AB+CD)*(BM)

now, we can plug values

and we get

A=(1)/(2) (9+18)*(12)

A=162cm^2

so, area of of the trapezoid is 162cm^2..........Answer

Limits

  • Right-Side Limit:                                                                                             \displaystyle \lim_(x \to c^+) f(x)
  • Left-Side Limit:                                                                                               \displaystyle \lim_(x \to c^-) f(x)

Graphical Limits

Step-by-step explanation:

If we graph the function, we can see that as we approach 3 from the left, we go towards negative infinity.

∴  \displaystyle \lim_( \to 3^-) (1)/(x - 3) = -\infty

Do all of the digits in 8.88 have the same value? and explain why.

Answers

No, all of the digits in 8.88 does not have the same place value.

In the number 8.88, each digit occupies a specific position that determines its place value.

From left to right:

1. The first digit "8" is in the ones place. Its place value is 8.

2. The second digit "8" is in the tenths place. Its place value is 0.8 (or 8/10).

3. The third digit "8" is in the hundredths place. Its place value is 0.08 (or 8/100).

Since all the digits are located after the decimal point, they are decimal digits. Therefore, in the number 8.88, all digits have the different place value as decimals.

Translate the following statement into a mathematical equation:Six, plus four times a number, is eighteen.

(6 + 4)n = 18
4n + 18 = 6
6 + 4n = 18
6 + 4 + n = 18

Answers

The correct mathematical equation for the statement is 6 + 4n = 18

Given data:

The correct translation of the statement "Six, plus four times a number, is eighteen" into a mathematical equation is:

6 + 4n = 18

In the equation, "n" represents the unknown number.

The statement states that the sum of six and four times the number is equal to eighteen.

The expression "4n" represents four times the number, and adding 6 to it gives the total of eighteen.

Hence, the expression is 6 + 4n = 18.
