you'd use the pythagorean theorem.
a^2+b^2=c^2
a is the first leg, b is the second leg, and c is the third leg.
10^2+13^2=c^2
100+169=c^2
269=c^2
take the square root of both sides
16.4=c
16.4cm is your answer!
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent and sine ratios in the right triangle EFG
tan60° =
=
=
( multiply both sides by EG )
EG × tan60° = 28 ( divide both sides by tan60° )
EG =
≈ 16.2 in ( to the nearest tenth )
--------------------------------------------------------------
sin60° =
=
=
( multiply both sides by EF )
EF × sin60° = 28 ( divide both sides by sin60° )
EF =
≈ 32.3 in ( to the nearest tenth )
The answer uses NMF for formatting, which you can find out about in my profile if needed:
the equation is this:
time = {total paid - 35}/{15}
Put in what we know:
time = {95 - 35}/{15}
time = {60}/{15}
time = 4 hours
Answer:
30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d = distance (in miles)
Let t = time (in hours)
Let v = average speed driving <u>to</u> the airport (in mph)
⇒ v + 15 = average speed driving <u>from</u> the airport (in mph)
Using: distance = speed x time

Create two equations for the journey to and from the airport, given that the distance one way is 18 miles:

We are told that the total driving time is 1 hour, so the sum of these expressions equals 1 hour:

Now all we have to do is solve the equation for v:







As v is positive, v = 30 only
So the average speed driving to the airport was 30 mph
(and the average speed driving from the airport was 45 mph)
