Answer:

Yes, a triangle with sides 8,15 and 17 is a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem solely applies to right triangles, and if the sum of the square of the two sides of a triangle equal the square of the hypotenuse, then you have a right triangle.

To set it up, remember that the side opposite 30 degrees will be the smallest of the three numbers, and the side opposite 90 degrees (the hypotenuse) will be the largest, leaving the middle number as opposite 60 degrees. If you solve 8^2 + 15^2, you get 289, which is equal to 17^2.

Very confusing help i dont understand
jasenka [17]

Answer:

12.8 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

1\frac{1}{4} cups of milk is used to make 10 servings of a recipe.

If 1\frac{1}{4} cups or \frac{5}{4} cups of milk is used to to make 1 serving.

Then 1 cup of milk will be required to make servings = \frac{1}{\frac{5}{4}}

                                                                                        = \frac{4}{5}

Since, 1 gallon = 16 cups

Therefore, 16 cups of milk will be required for servings = \frac{4}{5}\times 16

                                                                                            = 12.8 servings

15 POINTS AND WILL MARK BRAINLIEST Help?? Pleasee
Rom4ik [11]

The <em>experimental probability</em> is calculated based on the results of the experiment; since the name Ted was chosen 26 times out of 123, the experimental probability is \boxed{\frac{26}{123}}.

Typically, the <em>theoretical probability </em>assumes that events are chosen randomly; since the name Ted is one of the 6 in the hat, the theoretical probability is \boxed{\frac{1}{6}}.

If we <em>increased</em> the number of names in the hat, we would expect both the experimental and theoretical probability to decrease, since there are now more names to choose from. Similarly, if we <em>decreased</em> the number of names in the hat, the experimental and theoretical probability would increase.
