Answer: Exactly square root 58 inches
Step-by-step explanation: The dimensions given for the right angled triangle are 7 inches and 3 inches respectively. The third side is yet unknown. However what we know is that a right angled triangle can be solved by using the Pythagoras theorem which states that,
AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2
Where AC is the longest side. The question requires us to calculate the longest side and with the other two sides already known, the Pythagoras theorem now becomes,
AC^2 = 7^2 + 3^2
AC^2 = 49 + 9
AC^2 = 58
Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation
AC = square root 58 inches
If you need part A, draw a person and label them 6 feet tall and a shadow coming off of him that is five feet long and draw a basketball hoop that and label it X feet tall and draw a shadow coming from it that is 8 feet long. To solve, you use proportions 6/5=X/8 solving this you get X=9.6 feet which is the height of the rim. Therefore, the rim does not meet regulation height, since the required height (10 feet) is greater than the actual height (9.6 feet).
Answer:
1.983(10⁴)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we need to have ones and decimals as proper scientific notation, we have 1.983. Since we need the value of 19830, we need to move the decimal place 4 places to the right, so our exponent is 4.
*I double checked my work this time.
<u>The answer is C</u>. This is because the square of 8 is 64 and the square of 9 is 81. The only number in between those choices is C; 71.
