Answer:28.28 cm

Explanation:

a² + b² = c²

20² + 20² = c²

c² = 400 + 400

c² = 800

c = √800

c = 28.28 cm

You can either use the Pythagorean theorem or the formula d = a√2.

Pythagorean theorem:

The diagonal is the hypotenuse of the right triangle in the square and the two sides are the legs.

20² + 20² = d²
400 + 400 = d²
800 = d²
√800 = d
28.28 = d

Using the formula:

d = a√2
d = 20√2
d = 28.28

The answer with both the methods is the same.

Hope this helps :)

The length of a rectangle is 8 inches more than twice its width. The area of the rectangle is 120 square inches. How many inches
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

L = 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

w = width

L = length

area = 120

W x L = 120

L - 8 = 2W  then L = 2W + 8

substitute for L:

W x (2W + 8) = 120

2W² + 8W -120 = 0

(2W - 12)(W + 10) = 0

2W-12 = 0

2W = 12

W = 6

L = 20

On any day, the probability of rain is 0.3. The occurrence of rain on any day is independent of the occurrence of rain on any ot
poizon [28]
<h3>Answer: 0.47178  Step-by-step explanation: Find the probability for each p(X=x) up to 5 using the equation: (x-1)C(r-1)*p^r * q^x-r, where x is number of days, p = .3 (prob of rain). q=.7 (prob of not rain), and r=2 (second day of rain). also C means choose. So p(X=1) = 0 p(X=2) = 1C1 * .3^2 * .7^0 = .09 P(X=3) = 2C1 * .3^2 * .7^1 = .126 P(X=4) = 3C1 * .3^2 * .7^2 = .1323 P(X=5) = 4C1 * .3^2 * .7^3 = .12348 Then add all of them up 0+.09+.126+.1323+.12348 = .47178</h3>
