Answer:
<h2>b) 50in, 48in, 14in</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
If <em>a ≤ b < c</em><em> </em>form of a right side, then <em>a² + b² = c²</em>
a) 3ft, 6ft, 5ft
3² + 5² = 6²
9 + 25 = 36
34 = 36 <em>FALSE</em>
b) 50in, 48in, 14in
14² + 48² = 50²
196 + 2304 = 2500
2500 = 2500 <em>CORRECT :)</em>
c) 53m, 48m, 24m
24² + 48² = 53²
576 + 2304 = 2809
2880 = 2809 <em>FALSE</em>
d) 8cm, 17cm, 14cm
8² + 14² = 17²
64 + 196 = 289
260 = 289 <em>FALSE</em>
NO!
3+3 > 9
This does not form a triangle.
I believe the correct answer is B. I really hope this was the correct answer and helped you out.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) ΔACD ~ ΔABE so the ratios of corresponding sides are the same. That is ...
CD/BE = CA/BA
CD/3.8 = 12.3/8.2
CD = 3.8×12.3/8.2 = 5.7 . . . . cm
__
b) As above, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same.
ED/AD = BC/AC
ED/9.15 = (12.3-8.2)/12.3 . . . . BC = AC - AB
ED = 9.15×4.1/12.3 = 3.05 . . . . cm
-216 is the right answer!
