Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the measure of the other leg, to the nearest tenth, is: 2.6 cm.

<h3>What is the Pythagorean Theorem?</h3>

In a right triangle, where the lengths of its two legs are a and b, and the hypotenuse length is c, the Pythagorean theorem states that: c² = a² + b².

Given the following parameters of the right triangle:

  • c = 4 cm
  • a = 3 cm
  • b = ? (other leg)

Apply the Pythagorean theorem:

b = √(4² - 3²)

b = 2.6 cm (nearest tenth)

Thus, applying the Pythagorean theorem, the measure of the other leg, to the nearest tenth, is: 2.6 cm.

Pls help!! Find the volume of the flower vase. Round to the nearest tenth.
Contact [7]

Answer:

Volume = 1596.2 cubic cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = volume of box - volume of cylinder

Volume = (LxWxH) - 1/3 (pi * r^2 *h)

Volume = (10 x 12 x 20) -1/3 (3.14 x 8^2 x 12)

Volume = 2400 - 803.8

Volume = 1596.2 cm^3
