The hypotenuse of a right triangle measures 9 cm and one of its legs measures 4 cm. Find the measure of the other leg.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The other leg is √65 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given that the hypotenuse of a right triangle measures 9 cm, and one of the legs measures 4 cm

We want to find the measure of the other leg

In right triangles, we can use the  theorem to find the value of a side, if we know the lengths of the other two sides

The formula for the Pythagorean theorem is a²+b²=c², where a and b are legs, while c is the hypotenuse

If we say a is 4 and c is 9, then the equation will look like this:

(4)²+b²=(9)²

Raise each number to the second power

16 + b²= 81

Subtract 16 from both sides

b²=65

Take the square root of 65

b=√65, -√65

-√65 is not an applicable root for this problem, since distance cannot be negative

Hence, our answer is √65 cm

Hope this helps!

Answer: Montresor struggles with anger, and grudges. Montresor feels remorse at the end but excuses it as the dampness of the catacombs.

He sees the world without justice and sees to make justice for himself. In the story he talks about the misgivings and insults he receives from fortunato. He takes vengeance against him.

How to solve it out?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the interior angles of a polygon (a closed object with n edges) is always (n-2)×180°.

we have here 5 edges, so the sum of all 5 angles is

(5-2)×180 = 3×180 = 540°.

now, let's simply calculate

5x + 2 + 7x - 11 + 13x - 31 + 8x - 19 + 10x - 3 = 540

43x - 62 = 540

43x = 602

x = 14

therefore,

angle S = 13x - 31 = 13×14 - 31 = 182 - 31= 151°

Graph the line with the slope of -4 and passing through ( 3, 5 ).​

Answers

Answer:

See graph below of the line y - 5 = - 4 (x - 3) OR  y = -4 x + 17    

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation for such a line using the point-slope form [(y - y₁) = m (x - x₁)] where m = - 4 & (x₁ , y₁) = ( 3, 5 ). We can then find the x and y-intercept. The line we draw through these three points will be the line we are trying to find.

Equation of the Line

y - 5 = - 4 (x - 3)

Finding x and y-intercepts

y-intercept is 'c' when the line is in the slope-intercept form (y = mx + c)

since y - 5 = - 4 (x - 3)

         y - 5 = -4 x + 12

              y = -4 x + 17    

            ∴ point of the y-intercept is (0, 17)

x-intercept occurs when y = 0

 y = -4 x + 17  

 0 = -4 x + 17

-17 = -4x

   x = ¹⁷/₄

            ∴ point of the x-intercept is (¹⁷/₄, 0)

Graph the line

We can now plug in the points and draw the line.

See the example below.

Note: You only need two points to graph the line. I just did a third as a check.

The denominator of a fraction is 8 more than its numerator. If 1 is subtracted from the numerator and 3 is added to the denominator, the fraction becomes 1/2. Find the fraction

pleases help as soon as possible..thank you so much

Answers

Answer:

The fraction is 13/21.

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator of a fraction is 8 more than its numerator.

Let x be the numerator: x

So the denominator is: x + 8

[tex]\frac{x}{x + 8}[/tex]

If 1 is subtracted from the numerator and 3 is added to the denominator, the fraction becomes 1/2.

It will become:

[tex]\frac{x - 1}{x + 8 + 3} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x - 1}{x + 11} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Now, by using cross multiplication, multiply (x - 1) by 2 and (x+11) by 1.

It will become:

2x - 2 = x + 11

Now transpose and combine the same values. Make sure to change the integer sign. If the integer is positive, change it to negative when you transpose it.

2x - x = 11 + 2

x = 13

So the value of x is 13. Now to check if it is correct. Go back to the equation([tex]\frac{x - 1}{x + 11} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex])

Put the value of x in it.

[tex]\frac{13-1}{13+11} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{24} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

12/24 is equivalent to 1/2 so that is correct.

Now, to find the main fraction. Go back to the original equation which is;

([tex]\frac{x}{x + 8}[/tex])

Put the value of x.

[tex]\frac{13}{8 + 13}[/tex]

= 13/21

B)

After 1 month, the balance in Caroline's account increased by $3250 -3100 = $150. There are 12 months in a year, so after 2 years, Caroline will have made 12×2 = 24 additional deposits of $150. Her account value will be ...

One side of a regular hexagon ABCDEF forms the side of a regular polygon with n sides.

Angle GAF = 105°. Work out the value of n. ​

Answers

Answer:

n = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angle of a regular hexagon = 120 degrees.

So m < GAB = 360 - 120 - 105

= 135 degrees so the regular polygon has a total of 135n degrees.

Using the formula for the sum of interior angles of a polygon,

For the polygon with n sides:

Sum of interior angles = 180(n - 2)

135n = 180(n - 2)

135n = 180n - 360

45n = 360

n = 360/45 = 8.
