Anettt [7]
<span>The was a 30% decrease in area. You started with 40 sq ft and ended up with 28 sq ft. So you lost 40 - 28 = 12 sq ft. Now you need to figure out what percentage of 40 is 12. For that you just simply divide 12 / 40 = 0.30 And to convert 0.30 from a decimal to a percentage, just multiply by 100. 0.30 * 100 = 30%</span>

Given 3 sides of a triangle - how to tell it right, acute, or obtuse 8,11, 16
user100 [1]
Using Pythagorean theorem, we can justify our answer.
if c^2 = a^2 + b^2 then triangle is right one,
if c^2 > a^2 + b^2 then triangle is obtuse and
if c^2 < a^2 + b^2 then triangle is acute triangle.

Here a=8, b=11 and c=16
Put these values in the equation
16^2 = 8 ^2 + 11^2
256 = 64 +121
256> 185
So here c^2 > a^2 + b^2  Which means triangle is obtuse triangle.

Answer: Obtuse Triangle

n airplane took off from an airport and traveled at a constant rate and angle of elevation. When the airplane reached an altitud
hram777 [196]

The angle of the plane when it rose from the ground is 64.8 degrees

<h3>Application of trigonometry identity</h3>

Given the following parameters from the question

Altitude of the airplane H =  500m

Horizontal distance from airport "d"  = 235

Required

angle of elevation

According to the trigonometry identity

tan x = opposite/adjacent

tan x = H/d
tan x = 500/235

tan x = 2.1277

x = arctan(2.1277)

x = 64.8 degrees

The angle of the plane when it rose from the ground is 64.8 degrees
