Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagorean theorem, we know that a^2+ b^2=c^2

In our case, we know b, which is 5 and c which is 13.

If we plug that into the equation, we get a^2+ 5^2 = 13^2

Next, we simplify the equation. a^2 + 25 = 169

Then we subtract 25 from 169. 169 - 25 = 144.

Lastly, we do the square root of 144 and we get 12 which is the missing side.

Answer: 12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing side.

a^2 + 5^2 = 13^2

a^2 + 25 = 169

subtract 25 from both sides

a^2 = 144

take the square root of both sides

a = 12

A cake has a circumference of 25 1/7 inches. What is the area of the cake? Use 22/7 to approximate pi
Novosadov [1.4K]
To calculate for area given the circumference we proceed as follows:
C=2πr
where:
r=radius
thus given that C=25 1/7 in=176/7
thus plugging in our formula to solve for r we get:
176/7=2πr
thus
r=4.002~4.00 in
hence the area will be:
A=πr²
A=π×(4²)
A=50 2/7 in²

Mr. Wong cuts a coil of wire into two pieces in the ratio of 3:4. The length of the longer piece is 32 centimeters. What is the
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

56 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the lengths of the pieces is 3:4.

The longer piece is 32 cm.

We set up a proportion to find the length of the smaller piece.

Let the length of the smaller piece be x.

3 is to 4 as x is to 32

3/4 = x/32

4x = 3 * 32

4x = 96

x = 24

The smaller piece is 24 cm.

24 cm + 32 cm = 56 cm
