Answer:  The correct option is (D) SET 4.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are to select the correct set of side lengths that will form a right-angled triangle.

To form a right-angled triangle, we must have the following relation:

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² = Hypotenuse².</em>

<em>Hypotenuse is the length of the largest side; perpendicular and base are the two legs of the triangle.</em>

SET 1 :  14 cm, 5 cm, 6 cm.  

We have

5^2+6^2=25+36=61,\\\\14^2=196.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² ≠ Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will not form a right-angled triangle.

SET 2 :  8 in., 12 in., 20 in.  

We have

8^2+12^2=64+144=208,\\\\20^2=400.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² ≠ Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will not form a right-angled triangle.

SET 3 :  10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm.  

We have

10^2+20^2=100+400=500,\\\\30^2=900.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² ≠ Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will not form a right-angled triangle.

SET 4 :  12 ft, 16 ft, 20 ft.  

We have

12^2+16^2=144+256=400,\\\\20^2=400.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² = Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will form a right-angled triangle.

Thus, the SET 4 will form a right-angles triangle.

Option (D) is correct.

Answer:

The answer to your question is y = 2x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Original line   y = -(1/2)x + 5

Point (-4, 3)

Process

1.- Get the slope of the new line

- Slope of the original line = -1/2

  If the lines are perpendicular, the slopes must be reciprocal

                       -1/2  reciprocal = 2

2.- Get the equation of the new line

          y - y1 = m(x - x1)

          y - 3 = 2(x + 4)

- Simplification

         y - 3 = 2x + 8

- Solve for y

        y = 2x + 8 + 3

        y = 2x + 11

The longest leg of a right triangle is 12 inches. The hypotenuse is 3 inches longer then twice the shortest leg. How long is the
Llana [10]

Answer:

Shortest Leg: 5 inches, Hypotenuse: 13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle follows the pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2. C is the hypotenus. A combination found using this is 5, 12, and 13. To double check this, we know that the hypotenus is 2x+3, where x is the smallest leg.

What does 101=50-h h means the number 49
ICE Princess25 [194]
Let me see if I understand your question:

101=50-h

this would just be an equation with a variable: this variable is "h". Variable is an unknown value, like a name for "something".

so we could say that 101 equals 50 minus "something" and we call this something "h"

this is what 101=50-h "means"

as it happens, we can find out the value of this h:

we can subtract 50 from both sides of the equation:

101-50=50-50-h
51=-h

and multiply by (-1)
-51=h

so our h is equal to -51.

so...  does not actually mean here 49...

let me know if you have further questions!
