Answer:

use Pythagoras theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2}  + b ^{2}  = c ^{2}  \\ a ^{2}    +  12 ^{2}  = 13 ^{2}  \\ a = 5

Answer:

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Substitute

b = 12

c = 13

a^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

a^2 + 144 = 169

a^2 = 25

a = \sqrt{25} \\

a = 5

The answer is the first 1, 3,929. Because you would have to multiply 0.86 to the 11th power, then multiply that by 20646.

This shows a part of a multiplication table. Find the missing numbers. Explain how you found the numbers
DedPeter [7]
Well the first part of the table is 7 cause 7x5- 35 x 6 is 42 x 7 49. Second part of the table is 8 x 5 40 x6 is 48 x 7 is 56. once you know this it is easy just to common factor it or just simply add 5 6 or 7 to the numbers already given

2.<br> what do i put im confused and dont know how to do this
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two dots on the bottom of this figure define the base of a triangle.  If we now use a compass to draw the blue arcs on either side, as shown, the arcs will intersect at two points.  A straight line drawn through these two points will be perpendicular to the base. The triangle will be isosceles and could be (but doesn't have to be) equilateral.

HOW DO I SOLVE THIS PLEASE HELP
malfutka [58]

Answer:

  x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you want to find the value of x.

Know (or prove) that in this geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. That means the ratios of corresponding sides are proportional.

  short side / hypotenuse = 9/x = x/25

  x^2 = (9)(25) . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 25x ("cross multiply")

  x = √((9)(25)) = (3)(5) . . . take the square root

  x = 15
