The measure of hypotenuse using the ruler is 25.5 cm and using the formula is 23.43 cm, they are not same, and formula can be used to in the real life problems as well.
<h3>What is a right-angle triangle?</h3>It is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees and the other two are sharp angles. The sides of a right-angled triangle are known as the hypotenuse, perpendicular, and base.
The question is incomplete:
The complete question is:
Present a picture of an object (TV, Ipad Screen, Book Cover) that contains a right angle (it could be something in nature or that is man-made). Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the two sides that make the right angle and measure the distance from the end of one side to the end of the other side (hypotenuse). Draw a diagram of the object including the measurements. Use your leg measurements on your diagram to calculate a theoretical hypotenuse. (Show all steps).
- Does the hypotenuse that measured with a ruler/measuring tape equal the hypotenuse you calculated?
- Why do you think they are or are not exactly the same?
- What did you learn from developing this presentation?
We are assuming the length of one side x:
x = 18 cm
Length of other side y:
y = 15 cm
And length of the hypotenuse z:
z = 23.5 cm
From the Pythagoras theorem:
z² = x² + y²
z² = 18² + 15²
z² = 549
z = √54 = 23.43 cm
The measure of hypotenuse is:
Using ruler: x = 25.5 cm
Using formula: x = 23.43 cm
They are not equal due to the reading in the ruler.
The formula can be used to in the real life problems as well.
Thus, the measure of hypotenuse using the ruler is 25.5 cm and using the formula is 23.43 cm, they are not same, and formula can be used to in the real life problems as well.

Question 1.
Step 1. Add the total cost of purchasing the luxury items:
You will spend $135.85 purchasing the luxury items.
Step 2. Add the total cost of purchasing the name brand items:
You will spend $80.07 purchasing the name brand items.
Step 3. Subtract the total cost of purchasing the name brand items from the total cost of purchasing the luxury items:
Answer to the original question:
We can conclude that you will spend $55.78 more by purchasing the luxury items.
Question 2:
Part 1. To find the how many months will take to pay the card debt, we are going to use the credit card equation:
where
is the months to pay the card
is the balance
is the monthly payment
is the interest rate in decimal form
We know from our problem that the balance of the credit card is $1,367.90 and the monthly payment is $400.00, so
and 
. To find convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide the rate by 100%
.
Now that we have all we need, lets replace the values in our credit card equation:
It will take you 3.5 months according to our calculation, but since you pay $400 each month on the due date, we can conclude that it will take you 4 months to pay off the card.
Part 2. To calculate the total amount paid including the interest, we just need to multiply the monthly payment by the number of payments.
We know from our problem that the monthly payment is $400. We also know from our previous calculations that the number of payments is 4, so lets multiply both quantities:
We can conclude that the total amount paid including interest is $1,600
