Answer:

No. It is an obtuse triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

If c^2>a^2+b^2, then the triangle is obtuse. Since 24^2 + 7^2 is 625, and the square root of 625 is 25, that means 26>25. This proves that the triangle is obtuse.

What Is The Length Of Side BD?

emmainna [20.7K]

This is a rectangle, meaning that all angles are right angles and all sides opposite to one another have equal length.

Since the length of CD is 24, the length of AB must also be 24.
Angle B is a right angle because this is a rectangle.

See anything? I'll you a hint. We have a right triangle with only one missing value.

What do we use to solve for missing lengths in a right triangle? The Pythagorean theorem, of course!

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

The length of c (the hypotenuse) is 26.
The length of a (one leg) is 24.
The length of b is unknown and we want to find it.

$24^2+b^2=26^2$

$576+b^2=676$

Subtract 576 by both sides.

$b^2=100$

Take square root of both sides.

$b=10$

The length of the missing leg is 10, meaning that the length of BD is 10.

This is what you should be needing. Enjoy!

Malorie can work 10 math problems in 3 minutes. At this rate, how many problems can she work in one hour?

lisov135 [29]

D
If you multiply 3 by 10 and add a zero onto the ten in the question that is 100 in half an hour, all you need to do then is multiply that answer by two to get your answer.

How is the vertex related to the maximum or minimum of a parabola?

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Vertical parabolas give an important piece of information: When the parabola opens up, the vertex is the lowest point on the graph — called the minimum, or min. When the parabola opens down, the vertex is the highest point on the graph — called the maximum, or max.

A tank is in the shape of a cylinder 7 feet tall and 10 feet and radius find the exact surface area of the tank

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

$2036.75088022^{2}$ or $2036.8^{2}$ rounded to the nearest tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the area of the base and the top, which are circles.

Area of circle : $\pi 10^{2}$ = 986.960440109

There are 2 circles, soooooo....= 986.960440109 x 2 = 1973.92088022

2. Find the rest of the area of the cylander.

So, we have to find the circumference of the circle.

Circumference :2 $\pi$ 10 = 62.83

3. Multiply circumference by height.

62.83 x 7 = 439.81

4. Add all of the products.

439.81 + 1973.92088022 = $2036.75088022^{2}$ or $2036.8^{2}$ rounded to the nearest tenth

Help I need to know how to solve for x

lara [203]

Answer:

the answer would be x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

the lines the have 1 line across it equal the same. same for the ones with 2. for example AB has one line across so it also equals CD because it has one line across (in the little octagonal shape). BC has two lines and so does AH so BC=AH
