In the right angled triangle, a hypotenuse is the longest line of the triangle and is always the one that is opposite the right-angle of the triangle.
If your triangle is a right angled triangle, the simplest way is to use the Pythagora's Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse. The formula for which is
a² + b² = c²  where c is the unknown hypotenuse and a and b are the other two sides.
<span>Using this formula,
3</span>² + 4² = c²
9 + 16 = c²
25 = c²
√25 = √c²
5 = c which if you notice is also the lengthiest .

Given the inequality -8 &lt; 2, explain what happens when you multiply or divide both sides by 2 and what happens when you multi
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The inequality sign remains same while multiply or divide both sides by positive numbers.

The inequality sign changes while multiply or divide both sides by negative numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is - 8 < 2.

Now, if we multiply 2 in both sides then - 16 < 4

Again, if we divide by 2 into both sides then  - 4 < 1

Therefore, the inequality sign remains the same while multiply or divide both sides by positive numbers.

Now, if we multiply -2 in both sides then 16 > -4

And, if we divide -2 into both sides then 4 > -1

Therefore, the inequality sign changes while multiply or divide both sides by negative numbers. (Answer)

Tasya [4]
Given:
Original price = 20
reduces selling price by 25% every month it's not sold.

First markdown month:
20 * (100%-25%) = 20 * 75% = 15

Second markdown month
15 * 75% = 11.25

Macy, employee gets a 50% discount off the current price.
11.25 * 50% = 5.625
11.25 - 5.625 = 5.625 or 5.63
