Answer:

If you need to find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem if you know thelength of the other two sides. Square thelength of the 2 sides, called a and b, then add them together. Take the square root of the result to get the hypotenuse.

In the diagram below what is the relationship between the number of rectangles in the perimeter of the figure they form?

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

the correct answer is the third one. (1, 16), (2, 20), (3, 24)

Step-by-step explanation:

A perimeter is a path that surrounds a two-dimensional shape.

In the first case, 1 rectangle, the perimeter is the sum of all the sides:

Perimeter = 6 + 2 + 6 + 2 = 16

In the second case, 2 rectangles, the perimeter is the sum of all external sides:

Perimeter = 6 + 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 20

In the third case, three rectangles, the perimeter is the sum of all external sides:

Perimeter = 6 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 24

In none of the cases, you take into consideration the interal sides. Just the external sides, so the correct answer is the third one.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

B. The show technicians had trouble wiring the equipment.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the machine arrived <u>they had trouble wiring it</u>, so instead of going off to college that morning for an orientation, <u>I spent several days at the theater fixing my light/sound equipment</u>.

If it was easy, the technicians would have been able to handle it. But also, the author would not have spent several days fixing it were simple. It delayed his plans to going off to college by several days.

Which inequality represents the value of x that ensures triangle abc exists?

olasank [31]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to triangle inequality theorem, a triangle exists if the sum of two sides is greater that third side.

Apply this theorem on each combination.

Case I: $(2x+4)+6x>18$

$8x+4>18$

$8x>14$

$x>\dfrac{14}{8}$

$x>\dfrac{7}{4}$ ...(1)

Case II: $(2x+4)+18>6x$

$2x+22>6x$

$22>4x$

$\dfrac{22}{4}>x$

$\dfrac{11}{2}>x$ ...(2)

Case III: $6x+18>2x+4$

$6x-2x>4-18$

$4x>-14$

$x>-\dfrac{14}{4}$

$x>-\dfrac{7}{2}$ ...(3)

On combining (1), (2) and (3), we get

$\dfrac{7}{4}$

Therefore, the correct option is A.
