Right angle: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
c = longest side which is 26
a = 10
Now plug it in to find b
10^2 + b^2 = 26^2
100 + b^2 = 676
b^2 = 576
b = squareroot of 576 = 24
Solution: 24
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
.95 cents
Step-by-step explanation:
19 divided by 20 is .95 cents
9/10 = z/8
cross multiply
9/10(10)(8) = z/8(8)(10)
9(8) = z(10)
72 = 10z
Isolate the z, divide 10 from both sides
72/10 = 10z/10
z = 72/10
z = 7.2
7.2, or D) is your answer
hope this helps

======================================
Explanation:
7+6 = 13. Divide this over 5 to get 13/5 = 2 remainder 3. The quotient 2 is something we don't care about. <u>We only worry about the remainder</u>. Therefore 7+6 = 3 (mod 5)
-------------
2+1 = 3 (mod 5) for similar reasoning as above. 3/5 = 0 remainder 3.
-------------
20 = 9 (mod 11) since 20/11 = 1 remainder 9. Imagine you had 20 cookies and 11 friends. Each friend would get 1 whole cookie (quotient) and there could be 9 left over (remainder).
-------------
35/11 = 3 remainder 2
Or you could use repeated subtraction like so to find the remainder
35-11 = 24
24-11 = 13
13-11 = 2
The last result (2) is smaller than 11, so we stop here and this is the remainder.
Therefore, 35 = 2 (mod 11)
--------------
Here's another way to think of it. Consider you have $35 in your pocket. Let's say a store is selling trinkets for $11 each. We can pose these key questions:
- What is the most number of trinkets you can buy?
- If you buy that max amount, how much will you have left over?
The answer to the first question is 3 trinkets because 3*11 = 33 dollars is under the budget of $35. The amount left over is 35-33 = 2 dollars which is the remainder. It's not larger than 11, so we cannot buy any more trinkets at this point.
