<h3>Answer:  1</h3>

Explanation:

The jump from 2 to 2&1/2 is an increase of 1/2

2 + 1/2 = 2 & 1/2

The jump from 2 & 1/2 to 1 & 1/2 is a decrease of 1

(2 & 1/2) - 1 = (2 - 1) & 1/2 = 1 & 1/2

The jump from 1 & 1/2 to 2 is an increase of 1/2

(1 & 1/2) + 1/2 = 1 + (1/2 + 1/2) = 1 + 1 = 2

The pattern seems to be "add 1/2, subtract 1". Assuming this is the case, we would then subtract 1 from the last term we got (2) to get 2-1 = 1

High school math tip: learn how to apply the ratios 1:1:√2 for the 45/45/90 right triangle and 1:√3:2 for the 30/60/90 triangle; these two triangles probably constitute 90% of the examples and problems you'll see.

He we have half a square, the 45/45/90 isosceles right triangle, sides in ratio 1:1:√2.   We write that ratio for our sides and solve.

1:1:√2 = (3/2)√2 : y : x

Ratios are pretty much like fractions, and we can make fraction equations out of corresponding pairs:

1/1 = ( (3/2)√2 ) / y

y = (3/2)√2

1 /√2  = (3/2)√2 / x

x = (3/2)√2 × √2 = (3/2)(2) = 3

Answer: y =  (3/2)√2, x = 3

It's not too hard to get fast at these and just say y=(3/2)√2 because it's an isosceles triangle and x = y×√2 = 3 for the hypotenise.

ddd [48]

Answer:

12 by 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is s^2, where s is side length of the square. Therefore, we have:

s^2=144,\\s=\sqrt{144}=12

Since all side lengths of a square are equal, the dimensions are 12 by 12.
