You'd use the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2        (**** ^2 means squared****)

a = 60

b = 11

c = ? 
 
60^2 + 11^2 = c^2 

3600 + 121 = c^2

3721 = c^2 

then just square root 3721 and c^2 

c = 61 feet

Answer: 1/24

---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Work Shown:

A = selects green pair of shorts
B = selects gray t-shirt

P(A) = probability of selecting green shorts
P(A) = (number of green shorts)/(number of shorts total)
P(A) = 1/6
P(B) = probability of selecting gray t-shirt
P(B) = (number of gray t-shirts)/(number of t-shirts total)
P(B) = 1/4

P(A and B) = probability of selecting green shorts AND gray t-shirt
P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B) ... since A and B are independent events
P(A and B) = (1/6)*(1/4)
P(A and B) = (1*1)/(6*4)
P(A and B) = 1/24

Note: The fraction 1/24 is approximately equal to 0.041667

Help me for this question please​
stealth61 [152]

Answer:70 degrees and 150 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: The angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360. So the sum of the two angles is 360 - (55+ 85) = 220.

After that you can model the sum of the angles with an equation:

7x + 15x = 220

22x = 220

x = 10

then you plug in x for each angle 7(10) = 70 and 15(10) = 150
