Answer: 504

Step-by-step explanation:

When we select r things from n things in a order , we use permutations.

Formula for permutation:  ^nP_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}

Given : The number of family members who are potential kidney donors. = 9

Number of people needed to be selected for best match, a second-best match, and a third-best match ( in an order)=3

Then, the number of possible orders are = ^9P_3=\dfrac{9!}{(9-3)!}

=\dfrac{9\times8\times7\times6!}{6!}=504

Hence, the number of possible orders 504.

In radian measure, the angles of a 45-45-90 triangle are:
jeka94

Answer:

The answer is the option A \frac{\pi}{4},\frac{\pi}{4},\frac{\pi}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The measure of \pi radians is equal to 180\°

so by proportion

Find the measure in radians of  45\°

\frac{\pi}{180}\frac{radians}{degrees}=\frac{x}{45}\frac{radians}{degrees}\\ \\x=(45/180)*\pi \\ \\x=\frac{\pi}{4}

Find the measure in radians of  90\°

\frac{\pi}{180}\frac{radians}{degrees}=\frac{x}{90}\frac{radians}{degrees}\\ \\x=(90/180)*\pi \\ \\x=\frac{\pi}{2}

therefore

In radian measure the angles are

\frac{\pi}{4},\frac{\pi}{4},\frac{\pi}{2}

nikklg [1K]

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

4E and LA are right angles; therefore, these angles are congruent since all right

angles are congruent. Is - 15 over 5 and 12 over 4shows the corresponding sides are proportional;

therefore, ABC ~ AEDC by the SSS Similarity Postulate.
