find the measures of the numbered angles in the rhombus, will give brainliest ! pls show how you solved it :)))

Answers

Answer:

∠1 = 72°

∠2 = 54°

∠3 = 54°

∠4 = 72°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the isosceles triangle in which ∠4 is the top vertex angle and ∠3 & 54° are it's base angles. As it is an isosceles triangle , ∠3 = 54°

Using angle sum property of a triangle ,

∠4 + ∠3 + 54° = 180°

⇒ ∠4 + 54°+ 54° = 180°

∠4 = 180° - 108° = 72°

Diagonals of a rhombus bisect the vertex angles of a rhombus. So,

∠2 = ∠3 = 54°

Also , opposite vertex angles of a rhombus are equal, So , ∠1 = ∠4 = 72°

Q and D are points on a polygon. Q' D' are points of the polygon under a translation. Determine the translation. Write your answer as (x,y).

Q (4,5) Q' (9,-1)
D (-5,-2) D' (0,-8)​

Answers

Answer:

The translation is (5, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the point (x, y) translated h unit right and k unit up, then its image is (x + h, y + k) and the translation is (h, k)If the point (x, y) translated h unit left and k unit up, then its image is (x - h, y + k) and the translation is (-h, k)If the point (x, y) translated h unit right and k unit down, then its image is (x + h, y - k) and the translation is (h, -k)If the point (x, y) translated h unit left and k unit down, then its image is (x - h, y - k) and the translation is (-h, -k)

Let us solve the question

∵ The coordinates of point Q are (4, 5)

x = 4 and y = 5

∵ The coordinates of point Q' are (9, -1)

x' = 9 and y' = -1

→ That means x increased and y decreased ⇒ 3rd case above

The point Q is moved to the right and down

→ By using the 3rd rule above ⇒ (x + h, y - k)

x + h = 9

∵ x = 4

→ Substitute x by 4

∴ 4 + h = 9

→ Subtract 4 from both sides

∵ 4 - 4 + h = 9 - 4

h = 5

y - k = -1

∵ y = 5

→ Substitute y by 5

∴ 5 - k = -1

→ Subtract 5 from both sides

∵ 5 - 5 - k = -1 - 5

∴ -k = -6

→ Divide both sides by -1

k = 6

∵ The translation is (h, -k) in the 3rd case

∵ h = 5 and k = 6

The translation is (5, -6)

We can check the rule by finding D' the image of the point D

∵ D = (-5, -2)

∵ D' = (x + h, y - k)

∵ D' = (-5 + 5, -2 - 6)

∴ D' = (0, -8) as the given point D'

∴ The translation is correct

In a soccer game, Dalton scores 5 out of 8 shots on the goal. If he continues at that same rate, how many goals would he score if he made 168 shots on the goal?

Answers

Answer:

Scientist Dr. Sparks counted the flashes of lightning he saw around his home town for three months. He saw 25 in June, 51 in July, and 62 in August. A. What is the average number a month? B. What is the average number he saw in a day? If you help, please answer quickly after this is posted!!!

Answers

Answer:

Average number in a month = 46

Average number in a day = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Scientific Dr. Sparks has counted the flashes of lightning around his home for a period of 3 months.

Number of sparks counted in June = 25

Number of sparks counted in July = 51

Number of sparks counted in August = 62

To find:

Average number in a month ?

Average number in a day ?

Solution:

Average of observations can be defined as the ratio of total sum of all the observations to the total number of observations.

[tex]Average = \dfrac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observations}}[/tex]

Average as per month = [tex]\frac{25+51+62}{3} =\frac{138}{3} = 46[/tex]

To find the average number in a day, we need to first find the number of days.

Number of days in June = 30

Number of days in July = 31

Number of days in August = 31

Total number of days = 92

Average as per month = [tex]\frac{25+51+62}{92} =\frac{138}{92} = 1.5[/tex]

2. Write an equation that gives the amount of snow that has fallen after
x hours at this rate.
3. How many inches of snow will fall in 24 hours if it continues to snow at
this rate?

Answers

Answer:

13 inches ; 2 inches per hour ; 48 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Inches of snow after 2 hours = 4 inches

Since, snow is falling steadily ;

We can infer that:

Inches of snow per hour : (4 in / 2 hrs) = 2 in / hr

Hence, rate of snow fall = 2in /hr

Inches of snow after 6.5 hours

Rate per hour * Numbee of hours

2 * 6.5

= 13 inches

Amount of snow after x hours :

Rate * x

2 * x

= 2x

Inches of snow after 24 hours

2 * 24 hrs = 48 inches

Enter the range of values for x: AB=AD

Answers

Answer:

6 < x < 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of the side AB = 48 degrees

the angle of the side AD = 2x - 12 degrees

If the angle AD is greater than zero;

  2x -12 > 0

= 2x > 12

= x > 12/ 2

= x > 6

if the maximum angle of AD is equal to angle AB, then;

= 2x -12 = 48

 2x = 48 + 12

2x/ 2 = 60 / 2

x = 30

Therefore, the range of x is; 6 < x < 30

A store buys a video game for the wholesale price of $29.95. The markup on the game is 80%. If sales tax is 7.5%, how much money would you need to buy the game?

Answers

Answer:

57.9532

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Wholesale price = 29.95

Markup = 80%

Sales tax = 7.5%

Retail price of the game :

Price before sale tax:

Wholesale price * ( 1 + markup %)

29.95 * (1 + 0.8)

29.95 * (1.8)

$53.91

Sales tax = 7.5%

53.91 * (1 + 0.075)

53.91 * (1.075)

= 57.9532

Hence, $57.9532 will have to be paid

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5&3&8\\3&6&-5\\5&-9&0\\7&3&4\end{array}\right][/tex] and [tex]B = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7&-8&-5\\7&9&2\\2&5&-7\\2&8&-7\end{array}\right][/tex]. The sum of equal-sized matrices consist in the sum of each pair of corresponding elements. If [tex]C = (A-B)+A[/tex], then:

[tex]C = 2\cdot A -B[/tex] (1)

Then, [tex]c_{41}[/tex] is the element of matrix C located in the fourth row and first column and is defined by the following expression:

[tex]c_{41} = 2\cdot a_{41}-b_{41}[/tex] (2)

If we know that [tex]a_{41} = 7[/tex] and [tex]b_{41} = 2[/tex], then [tex]c_{41}[/tex] is:

[tex]c_{41} = 2\cdot (7)-2[/tex]

[tex]c_{41} = 12[/tex]

The value of the entry represented by [tex]c_{41}[/tex] is 12.

Write 34/38 in lowest terms

Answers

In the fraction 34/38, 34 is the numerator and 38 is the denominator. When you ask "What is 34/38 simplified?", we assume you want to know how to simplify the numerator and denominator to their smallest values, while still keeping the same value of the fraction. We do this by first finding the greatest common factor of 34 and 38, which is 2. Then, we divide both 34 and 38 by the greatest common factor to get the following simplified fraction: 17/19

The lowest term of 34/38 is 17/19.

What is a fraction?

A fraction is written in the form of a numerator and a denominator where the denominator is greater that the numerator.
