An engineer wants to build a bridge across a gorge as shown in the figure above. To calculate the length the bridge will need to

be, L, she chooses two points directly across the gorge from each other to form one side of a right triangle and then another point that is 20 m apart from one of the first points to make the other side of the right triangle. She calculates the angle opposite the longer side to be 60°.
What is the distance across the gorge, L? Round to the nearest hundredth of a meter.
A.
34.64 m
B.
17.32 m
C.
10 m
D.
40 m

A drainage pipe 66 in. tall measures 25.12 in. around.
Schach [20]
In order to solve this using V= B(h) (The B is area of the base) you need a radius it doesn't give us that but it does give us the circumference. 
C= 3.14(2r)
25.12=2r divide each by 2 
12.56=r
now use this in the volume formula:
V= 12.56^2(3.14)(66)
V=32,692.86 cubic inches

: A personal computer manufacturer buys 36% of its chips from Japan and the rest from the United St...
meriva

Answer: 0.9862

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability that the chips belongs to Japan: P(J)= 0.36

The probability that the chips belongs to United States : P(U)= 1-0.36=0.64

The proportion of Japanese chips are defective : P(D|J)=0.017

The proportion of American chips are defective : P(D|U)=0.012

Using law of total probability , we have

P(D)=P(D|J)\times P(J)+P(D|U)\times P(U)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(D)=0.017\times0.36+0.012\times0.64=0.0138

Thus , the probability that chip is defective = 0.0138

Then , the probability that a chip is defect-free=1-0.0138=0.9862

The measure of < A is 45 degree
VashaNatasha [74]

We are given \triangle ABC \cong \triangle EFG

The order of the letter sequence is important. The letters pair up based on how they are arranged. We see that A and E are the first letters of the sequences. So this means that angles A and E are the same measure

angle A = angle E

3x+20 = 5x-80

3x-5x = -80-20

-2x = -100

x = -100/(-2)

x = 50

Use this x value to find the measure of angle A

angle A = 3x+20

angle A = 3(50)+20

angle A = 150+20

angle A = 170 degrees

<h3>Therefore, the statement "the measure of angle A is 45 degrees" is <u>false</u>.</h3>
