To solve these type of problems you need to use the pythagoras theorem ⇨ Hypotenuse² = Base² + Altitude².
Here,
- Altitude = 1.6 cm.
- Base = 1.2 cm
- Hypotenuse = x
Now, let's solve for x.
Hypotenuse² = Base² + Altitude²
x² = (1.2)² + (1.6)²
x² = 1.44 + 2.56
x² = 4
x = √4
x = <em><u>2</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>
- So, the value of x is <em><u>2</u><u> </u><u>cm.</u></em>

<u>NOTE</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
- Pythagoras theorem can be used only in the cases of right-angled triangles. Here, it's given that the triangle is right angled so we can use this theorem.
- To solve the squares if decimals, take them as whole numbers & then just add the decimal points. For example, ⇨ for (1.2)², take it as 12² , then multiply 12 by 12, you'll get 144. Now, add the decimal place accordingly ⇨ 1.44 . So, (1.2)² = 1.44.
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
(6³ * 3³)² = 18⁶
Multiply inside the parenthesis.
(18³)² = 18⁶
When you put powers to powers, they multiply, eg:
(x³)⁴ = x³°⁴ = x¹²
18⁶ = 18⁶
True.
Answer:
PQ = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Theorem: The length of the median of a trapezoid is the average of the base lengths.
PQ + 12 = 32
PQ = 20
See how easy that is if you know the theorem!
In the question, there are certain information's that are of immense importance in regards to finding the answer. The first information is that Jose Rivera had purchased 7 textbooks for his classes at River Run Community College. The price that Jose Rivera had to pay was $208.55. The average cost per textbook needs to be found.
The cost of 7 textbooks purchased by Jose Rivera = 208.55 dollars
Then
The cost of 1 textbook purchased by Jose Rivera = (208.55/7) dollars
= 29.79 dollars
The average cost of a textbook purchased by Jose Rivera rounded to the nearest cent is 29.80 dollars.
