The equation can be used to find the missing leg in the triangle 20^{2} = 16^{2} +a^{2}.

<h3>What is the right triangle?</h3>

A right-angle triangle is a triangle that has a side opposite to the right angle the largest side and is referred to as the hypotenuse.

It is given that a right triangle has a side length of 16 meters and a hypotenuse of 20 meters.

From a Pythagoras theorem

b^{2} = c^{2} +a^{2} \\20^{2} = 16^{2} +a^{2}\\20^{2}-16^{2} =a^{2}\\a^{2} = 20^{2}-16^{2} \\

Thus, the equation can be used to find the missing leg in the triangle 20^{2}-16^{2} =a^{2}.

What is the median of this set of data: 593, 588, 540, 434, 420, 398, 390, 375
Anna [14]
C. 427

The median is the middle number of all the data

Since there is an even number of data points the median is in between the middle two data points (434 and 420)

To find this: 434-420=14
14/2=7
434-7=427
420+7=427

Find the value of each variable
kondaur [170]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C

a = 10√3, b = 5√3, c = 15 and d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

The angles of a right angled triangle, 30°, 60° and 90° then sides are in the ratio, 1: √3 : 2

<u>To find the value of variables</u>

From the figure we can see 2 right angled triangle with angle 30, 60 and 90

we get, d= 5 then b = 5√3

b = 5√3  the c = 5√3 * √3 = 15

and a = 2 * 5√3 = 10√3

Therefore the correct answer is option C

a = 10√3, b = 5√3, c = 15 and d = 5

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 537. What is the 3rd number?
maks197457 [2]

For this problem your equation will be x+(x+1)+(x+2)=537

Multiply and Simplify:

x+x+1+x+2=537

3x+3=537

Subtract 3 from both sides:

3x+3-3=537-3

3x=534

Divide both sides by 3:

3x/3=537/3

x=179

179 is the middle number so: 178+179+180=537

180 is the third number.
