Pythagoras theorem: leg 1 squared + leg 2 squared = hypotenuse squared

In the diagram, the triangle has angles 90 and 45. So the other angle in the triangle must be 45 degrees as well.  (180 - 90 -45 = 45)

This means it is an isosceles triangle (since two angles are the same), so the two legs have the same length.

So we can say that length of leg1 = x, and the length of leg2 also equals x

Now let's use pythagoras' theorem:

leg1 = x

leg2 = x

hypotenuse = 16

x^2 + x^2 = 16^2

      2x^2 = 16^2

      2x^2  = 256

        x^2 = 128

        x = √(128)

        x = 8√2

Five students participated in an Easter egg hunt. Ally snatched up one
babunello [35]

Answer:

There were a total of 72 Easter eggs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since five students participated in an Easter egg hunt, where Ally snatched up one quarter of all of the eggs, Brett only managed to get half of what Ally found, Lee snagged six more than Brett, Jen ended up with half of Lee's take, While Lisa snagged three times that, to determine how many eggs were there in total, the following calculation must be performed:

Ally: 0.25X

Brett: 0.125X

Read: 0.125X + 6

Jen: 0.0625X + 3

Smooth: 0.1875X + 9

X - 0.25X - 0.125X - 0.125X - 0.0625X - 0.1875X = 0.25

0.25X = 6 + 3 + 9

0.25X = 18

Ally: 18

Brett: 9

Read: 15

Jen: 7.5

Smooth: 22.5

18 + 9 + 15 + 7.5 + 22.5 = X

72 = X

Thus, there were a total of 72 Easter eggs.
