Answer: 1/2, 1/2, 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the fraction that the hour hand turns of a clockwise revolution, we have to find how long it is going then divide by 12

Ex. a) 11 - 5 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

b) 8 - 2 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

c) For this, we have to convert 1 into 13 as 1 - 10 is a negative number

13 - 10 = 3, 3/12 = 1/4 so the hour hand turns by 1/4 of a clockwise revolution

The answers are :

a) 1/2

b) 1/2

c) 1/4

To find the fraction of a clockwise revolution, take the ratio between hours covered and hours covered in one revolution.

a)

  • Hours covered between 5 and 11 ⇒ 11 - 5 = 6
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 6/12 = 1/2

b)

  • Hours covered between 2 and 8 ⇒ 8 - 2 = 6
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 6/12 = 1/2

c)

  • Hours covered between 10 and 1 ⇒ 13 - 10 = 3 (∴ <u>12 + 1 = 13)</u>
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 3/12 = 1/4

Which of these sets could represent the side lengths of a right triangle?
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

{6, 8, 10} is a set which represents the side length of a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle:

(Base)^{2}  + (Perpendicular)^{2}   = (Hypotenuse)^{2}

Now, in the given triplets:

(a) {4, 8, 12}

Here, (4)^{2}  + (8)^{2}   = 16 + 64  = 80\\\implies H = \sqrt{80}  =  8.94

So, third side of the triangle   8.94 ≠ 12

Hence,  {4, 8, 12} is NOT a triplet.

(b) {6, 8, 10}

Here, (6)^{2}  + (8)^{2}   = 36 + 64  = 100\\\implies H = \sqrt{100}  =  10

So, third side of the triangle  10

Hence,  {6, 8, 10} is  a triplet.

(c) {6, 8, 15}

Here, (6)^{2}  + (8)^{2}   = 36 + 64  = 100\\\implies H = \sqrt{100}  =  10

So, third side of the triangle  10  ≠ 15

Hence,  {6, 8, 15} is  NOT a triplet.

(d) {5, 7, 13}

Here, (5)^{2}  + (7)^{2}   = 25 + 49  = 74\\\implies H = \sqrt{74}  =  8.60

So, third side of the triangle  8.60  ≠ 13

Hence, {5, 7, 13} is  NOT a triplet.
