Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse ≈ 39.7 cm

Explanation:

Since the given triangle is a right-angled triangle, this means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem.

The equation for Pythagorean calculation is:

(hypotenuse)² = (first leg)² + (second leg)²

In the given, we have:

first leg = 30 cm

second leg = 26 cm

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the hypotenuse as follows:

(hypotenuse)² = (30)² + (26)²

(hypotenuse)² = 1576

This means that:

either hypotenuse = √1576 = 39.69 ≈ 39.7 cm ..........> accepted

or hypotenuse = -√1576 = -39.69 ......> rejected as length can't be negative

Hope this helps :)

Can anyone help me, i will give brainiest.

Answer: ∠DOB: 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we need an equation first. the sum of all angles (108°, n°, 2n°) is equal to 180°. we can depict this with the equation: 108°+2n°+n°=180°

2. now we can solve for the missing variable, n.

108°+3n°=180° → subtract both sides by → 3n°=72° → divide both sides by 3 → n=24°

3. now that we know that n=24°, we can solve the value of ∠DOB. we can see that ∠DOB is 2n° which we just plug the number we got for n into the equation. 2*24=48° meaning ∠DOB is 48°

hope this heped! ♡
