Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem is as follows:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

A and B represent the side lengths (legs) and C represents the hypotenuse.

The length of one leg equals 5cm. (This can be represented by either a or b)

The hypotenuse equals 13 cm.

Plug these into the equation from above:

a^{2} + (5^{2}) = (13^{2})

Solve for the other leg:

   a^{2} + 25 = 169                          Square what's in the parentheses from above

a^{2} = 144\\                                  Subtract 25 from 169

\sqrt{a^{2} } = \sqrt{144}                            Square root both sides

a = 12 cm                        

Thus, the length of the other leg is 12 cm.

Let's check our answer:

12^{2} +5^{2} =13^{2}                        Square everything

144 + 25 = 169                      Add

169 = 169

Because both sides are equal it means that 12 cm is the correct answer.

Hope this helps!!

Prove the divisibility of the following numbers:
Brut [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove divisibility, we need to factor the divident such that one of its factors matches the divisor.

(I use the notation x|y to denote that x divides y)

(A)

75^{30}|45^{45}\cdot15^{15}\\45^{45}\cdot15^{15}=3^{45}\cdot 15^{45}\cdot 15^{15}=\\=3^{45}\cdot 15^{60}=3^{45}\cdot 15^{30}\cdot 15^{30}=3^{45}\cdot (3\cdot5)^{30}\cdot 15^{30}=\\=3^{45}\cdot 3^{30}\cdot(5\cdot 15)^{30}=3^{45}\cdot 3^{30}\cdot(75)^{30}\\\implies\\75^{30}|3^{45}\cdot 3^{30}\cdot75^{30}

(B)

72^{63}|24^{54}\cdot 54^{24}\cdot2^{10}\\24^{54}\cdot 54^{24}\cdot2^{10}=(2^{162}\cdot 3^{54})\cdot(2^{24}\cdot 3^{72}) \cdot 2^{10}\\=2^{196}\cdot 3^{126}

In this case, it is easier to also factor the divisor to primes:

72^{63}=2^{189}\cdot 3^{126}

Both of these factor must be matched in the dividend in order to prove divisibility, and that indeed turns out to be true:

2^{189}\cdot 3^{126}|2^{196}\cdot 3^{126}\implies\\2^{189}|2^{196}\,\,\mbox{and}\,\,3^{126}|3^{126}

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

\theta = 40.59^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The question is illustrated with the attached image

Required

Find \theta

To do this, we use sine formula

i.e.

\sin(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}

So, we have:

\sin(\theta) = \frac{10.8}{16.6}

\sin(\theta) = 0.6506

Take arc sin

\theta = \sin^{-1}(0.6506)

\theta = 40.59^\circ
