A square has 4 right angles and 4 equal sides.
If you draw a diagonal through the square then you get two right triangles. So the area relation between a square and a right triangle is going to be half. The area of the triangle is half the area of the square. 

Also the formula for area of a square is length times width.
And the formula for the area of a right triangle is 0.5 times length times width.

So if you set up the equation (let's use * as multiplication symbol ): 

Area of a Square : Area of a Right Triangle
length * width : 0.5 * length * width
(Divide by length * width on both sides)
1:0.5 or 2:1

What does the correlation show about the relationship between temperature and sales of ice cream
kvasek [131]

The graph is missing. So is the set of data point values. However, I can assume that as the temperature goes up, then so does the sale of ice cream. It's not a perfect relationship, but there is a strong positive correlation between the two variables.

A positive correlation means that as one variable increases, so does the other. Also, it means that if one variable decreases, then the other variable decreases as well. The two variables move in the same direction together.

Can someone SMART actually help me
lisov135 [29]
The answer is 196/3 pi in^3. All you have to do is multiply 7x7, then you have to multiply that by 1/3 and 4, and you get 65.333333333. Then, you have to turn it into a fraction. You have to multiply 65 by 3, then add one, and you get 196/3 pi in^3.

There are exactly 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch. When using this conversion factor, how many significant figures are you limited t
IgorC [24]

Significant figures tells us that about how may digits we can count on to be precise given the uncertainty in our calculations or data measurements.

Since, one inch  = 2.54 cm.

This is equivalent as saying that 1.0000000.. inch = 2.540000... cm.

Since the inch to cm conversion doesn't add any uncertainty, so we are free to keep any and all the significant figures.

Since, being an exact number, it has an unlimited number of significant figures and thus when we convert inch to cm we multiply two exact quantities together. Therefore, it will have infinite number of significant figures.
