Answer:

The area of the larger rectangle is 40.32 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Two rectangles are similar if the lengths of their corresponding sides form a proportion. From the picture:

4.8/4 = x/7

where x is the length of the base of the larger rectangle.

x = (4.8/4)*7

x = 8.4 cm

The area of the larger rectangle is:

A = base*height

A = 8.4*4.8

A = 40.32 cm²

What is the length of the hypotenuse

Liula [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find Hypotenuse: Pythagorean Theroem

a^2+ b^2= c^2

The legs are A and B

The side that is directly across from the Right angle is C

12^2 + 16^2 =C^2

144+256=400

400 = c^2

Square root on both sides to get rid of c^2

The square root of 400 is 20

c=20

Simplify (5^1/3)^3.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

The correct option is C. 5

Therefore,

$(5^{\frac{1}{3})^{3}\ =\ \d5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify

$(5^{\dfrac{1}{3})^{3}=?$

Solution:

Using Identity

$(x^{a})^{b}=x^{(a\times b)}$

So in the given expression

$x = 5\\a=\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\b=3$

Therefore,

$(5^{\frac{1}{3})^{3}\ =\ \d5^{(\dfrac{1}{3}\times 3)}=\d5^{1}=\d5$

Therefore,

$(5^{\frac{1}{3})^{3}\ =\ \d5$
