The angle bisectors of triangle XYZ meet at point P. What is PJ?
=======================================================
Explanation:
Segment PJ is perpendicular to segment YZ
So triangle PJZ is a right triangle with the known leg ZJ = 12, unknown leg PJ = x, and known hypotenuse PZ = 20.
Let's say a = 12, b = x, c = 20.
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + x^2 = 20^2
144 + x^2 = 400
x^2 = 400-144
x^2 = 256
x = sqrt(256)
x = 16
Therefore segment PJ is 16 units long.
Side note: the angle bisectors won't always form 90 degree angles with the opposite sides. These angle bisectors are also altitude lines because of the 90 degree angles that form.

Pat needs to determine the height of a tree before cutting it down to be sure that it will not fall on a nearby fence. The angle of elevation of the tree from one position on a flat path from the tree is H=60°, and from a second position L=20 feet farther along this path it is B=50° What is the height of the tree?
Answer: 44.11 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras :
tan θ = opposite / Adjacent
Tan 60° = h / x
h = x tan 60 - - - (1)
tan 50° = h / (x + 20)
h = (x + 20) tan 50 - - - (2)
Equate (1) and (2)
x tan60 = (x + 20) tan 50
1.73205x = (x + 20) 1.19175
1.73205x = 1.19175x + 23.835
1.73205x - 1.19175x = 23.835
0.5403x = 23.835
x = 23.835 / 0.5403
x = 44.114380
Hence, height = 44.11 feets

On the last day of vacation, the Ramirez family drove 252 miles from a state park to its home. The drive covered 35% of the total distance the family traveled during its vacation. What is the total distance the Ramirez family traveled during its vacation?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
35 percent of total miles traveled (say T)is 252 miles.
(35/100) * T=252
T=(252*100)/35 => T=720 miles
So total distance the Ramirez family traveled during its vacation is 720 miles
Answer:
720 miles

1. Which of the following is the standard form of y = (x – 3)(x – 7)?
a. y = (x + 5)2 – 21
b. y = (x - 5)² - 4
c. y = (x + 5)2 - 4
d. y = (x – 5)2 + 28
A
B
9514 1404 393
Answer:
b. y = (x - 5)² - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we take "standard form" to mean "vertex form."
In the US, "standard form" would be ...
y = x² -10x +21
Vertex form is ...
y = (x -5)² -4 . . . . matches B

How do you solve 9 7/8 divided by 5 2/3? Explain how you used math to determine your answer.
Answer:
Change the mixed fractions to improper fractionsFor any fraction in the form [tex]A\frac{b}{c}[/tex] is equal to [tex]\frac{(A*b)+c}{b}[/tex] so the fractions are [tex]\frac{79}{8}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{17}{3}[/tex] Then in order to divide, change the fraction on the right by flipping it, and then multiply everything [tex]\frac{79}{8} \div\frac{17}{3}=\\\frac{79}{8} \times\frac{3}{17} =\frac{1343}{24}[/tex]What is the y-intercept of the function f(x)=4 - 5x?

Which is the surface area of the cube?
help me pls thank you
Answer:
discrete
Step-by-step explanation:
This graph is discrete. A discrete graph has separate values, which are represented by multiple unconnected points. In continuous graphs, the values are all connected to each other. If this graph was continuous, then we would see a line rather than separate dots. The graph can also not be neither continuous nor discreet because it passes the vertical line test, meaning that it is a function.

If x + y = 13 and y = 2, then which of the following is true according to the
substitution property?
A) 2 + y = 13
B) x = 13 - y
NICy = 13 - x
OD) x + 2 = 13
Answer:
OD) x+2=13
Step-by-step explanation:
you would plug in the y substitute which would be 2, making the equation x+2=13
:) hope this helps lol
Answer:
X+2=13
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that x+y=13 when added. We also know that y=2. To find X we can add X to 2 to get 13. X=11

A store is hoping an advertising campaign will increase their number of customers by 30%. They currently have about 80 customers a day.
Answer:
There will be 104 customers a day, after advertising campaign
Step-by-step explanation:
Current number of customers in a day in shop = 80
After advertising campaign, the customers will increase = 30%
So, new customers will be:
We can find new customers by adding new 30% customers to the current 80 customers.
First find 30% of 80
[tex]30\% \ of \ 30\\=\frac{30}{100}*80\\=24[/tex]
Now, add 24 to current 80 customers.
Number of customers = 80+24 = 104
So, there will be 104 customers a day, after advertising campaign
The table gives a few x,y pairs of a line, what is x intercept
Answer:
Intersections of Linear Equations. The intersection of a line are the points where the line intersects, or crosses, the horizontal and vertical axes. The line shown on the graph intersects the two coordinate axes. The point where the line crosses the x-axis is called [x-intercept].

Let U = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g}. Find the complement of the set A below.
A = {a, c, e, g}
Answer:
[tex]A' = \{b,d,f\}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]U = \{a, b, c, d, e, f, g\}[/tex]
[tex]A = \{a, c, e, g\}[/tex]
Required
Find the complement of A
The complement of A are elements in the universal set (U) but not in A.
In other words,
if [tex]A = \{a, c, e, g\}[/tex]
then A' are the elements other than a, c, e and g that are in the universal set
So
[tex]A' = \{b,d,f\}[/tex]
Where A' represents the complement
