Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because square root of 15 is between 3 and 4, which are not greater than 5. To make a right triangle you could used two 5 for side a and b BUT the longer side of the triangle has to be Greater than a and b
Hope this helped
Answer:
Can you take a picture of the question so i could help!
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer this question by trigonometry.
Draw the rope at an angle of 33 degrees from the x axis.
You will find:
cosx = a/h
cos33 = a/290
a. = 243.21
<u>Let's consider the facts at hand</u>:
- By Vertical Angle Theorem ⇒ ∠BCE = ∠DCF
- ∠BEC = ∠DFC
- Sides BE = DF
<u>Based on the diagram, triangles BCE and triangles DCF are similar</u>
⇒ based on the Angle-Angle theorem
⇒ since ∠BCE = ∠DCF and ∠BEC = ∠DFC
⇒ the two triangles are similar
Hope that helps!
<em>Definitions of Theorem I used:</em>
- <u><em>Vertical Angle Theorem: </em></u><em>opposite angles of two intersecting lines must be equal</em>
- <u><em>Angle-Angle Theorem:</em></u><em> if two angles of both triangles are equal, then the given triangles must be similar</em>
