Find the length of the hypotenuse of a triangle if one of its legs is 11 cm long and its perimeter is 132 cm.

Answer:

1.)

132 cm - 11 cm = 121 cm

So let the hypotenuse be x and the other leg be (121 - x).

11^2 + (121 - x)^2 = x^2

121 + 121^2 - 121(2)x = 0

x = 1/2 + 121/2 = 61 cm

Step-by-step explanation: not sure if this is right or not

The area of the triangle is 28.7 square centimeters. What is the base length of the triangle in centimeters?
Montano1993 [528]

In order to derive the base of a triangle from its area, you need its height as well.

In fact, if we solve the area formula for the base, we have

A=\dfrac{bh}{2} \iff 2A = bh \iff b=\dfrac{2a}{h}

So, the base length would be

b=\dfrac{2\cdot 28.7}{h} = \dfrac{57.4}{h}

where h is the height relative to the base you're interested in.

Of 1800 students enrolled in school 55% are girls. of the girls attending this school 30% take the bus to school
leonid [27]
55% of 1800 = 0.55(1800) = 990...so there are 990 girls in the school

30% of 990 = 0.30(990) = 297...so there are 297 girls who take the bus

rodikova [14]
Part 1: <span>What is the periodic interest rate of jade investment?

Each compounding period is done semi-annually, which means twice a year. Since the given interest rate is annual, then 5.2% divided by half should yield the period interest rate, which is 2.6%

Four students were asked to write an expression which has terms that have a greatest common factor of 8c. The expressions provid
wel

Answer:

Wyatt wrote the correct expression

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are to evaluate which of the students wrote an expression with the highest common factor being 8c

For Tanya; 32c + 16c; 16c( 2 + 1); This is wrong as the highest common factor is 16c

For Wyatt, we have 8c - 48cd; factorizing, we have 8c(1-6cd); This is correct

For Xavier we have 36c-24c; 8 is not a factor of 36, so it won’t work

For Yang 8c + 40; 8(c+ 5); what we are trying to look for is 8c and not 8 so this is wrong also
