Explanation: For one, I learned about this in Junior High. Two, There are a lot of currents there, because it is in between the south pole and the equator, so the strength of wind is really great.

Which explains the seasonal variation in the number of hurricanes that form in the Atlantic?

ASHA 777 [7]

<span>B) Hurricanes derive their energy from heat.
</span><span>
A hurricane begins with a pre-existing disturbance, an area of low pressure. Favorable conditions advances to the formation of hurricanes. The first one which greatly contributes to the seasonal variation in the number of hurricanes that form in the Atlantic is an increase in sea surface temperatures. For a tropical depression to mature into a hurricane, it requires heat energy from the ocean surface.</span><span>

Triangle RST has vertices located at R (2, 3), S (4, 4), and T (5, 0). Part A: Find the length of each side of the triangle. Sho

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The length of the sides of the triangle are; √5, √17 and √18, the slopes are; (1/2), -4 and -1.

<h3>What are the lengths of the sides of the triangle?</h3>

According to coordinates of the vertices given; it follows that the length of each side can be evaluated as follows;

Side RS = √((4-2)² + (4-3)²) = √5

Side ST = √((5-4)² + (0-4)²) = √17

Side TR = √((5-2)² + (0-3)²) = √18

The slopes can be evaluated as;

Slope RS = (4-3)/(4-2) = 1/2

Slope ST = (0-4)/(5-4) = -4

Slope TR = (0-3)/(5-2) = -1.

Since, none of the lines are equal and the slopes do not indicate perpendicular lines, it follows the triangle RST is scalene.
