A right triangle has the two legs that form an angle of 90°, which means that the two legs are perpendicular.

In order to prove that FGH is a right triangle, you need to calculate the slopes of the lines passing through its vertexes and see if there is a pair of opposite reciprocals:

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

m(FG) = (-9 - 4) / (5 - 2) = -13/3
m(FH) = (-4 - 4) / (-3 - 2) = 8/5
m(HG) = (-4 -(-9)) / (-3 - 5) = -5/8

Since m(FH) and <span>m(HG) are opposite reciprocals, FH is perpendicuar to HG and FGH is a right triangle.</span>

The answer is C)The slope of GH = − 5/ 8 , and the slope of FH =  8/ 5 ; therefore, GH ⊥ FH.

Help Please<br> Find The Surface Area Of The Prism
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

360 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of each face of the triangular prism.

Imagine the triangular prism as its net, it is composed with 2 triangular faces (these are tye bases of the prism) and 3 rectangular faces.

Areas of the 2 triangular bases (they are similar triangles):

1/2 x 8 cm x 6 cm = 24 cm^2

24 x 2 = 48 cm^2

Area of the rectangular face:

8 x 13 = 104 cm^2

Area of another rectangular face:

6 cm x 13 cm = 78 cm^2

Area of another rectangular face:

13 cm x 10 cm = 130 cm^2

Add up all the areas of all faces:

48 + 104 + 78 + 130 = 360

So the SA is 360 cm^2

A bag contains 5 blue marbles, 2 green marbles, and 3 yellow marbles. What is the probability of choosing one green marble and t
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of marbles = 5 + 2 + 3 = 10

Probability of choosing 1 green marble = 2/10

Probability of choosing 1 yellow marble = 3/10

Notice (and this is important) that the denominator didn't change. Why?

Because you replaced the first marble into the bag. That word replacement is critical in a problem of this nature. There is the term non replacement which means that the second draw would have a denominator of 9.

So what is the probability of P(green then yellow)?

P(green then yellow) = 3/10 * 2/10 = 6/100

Answer: P(green then yellow) = 3/50 because 6 / 100 reduces.

Can someone help me with this problem
user100 [1]

Answer:

About 110.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The sine of an angle is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse.

\sin 19= \dfrac{36}{x} \\\\x=\dfrac{36}{\sin 19}\approx 110.6

Hope this helps!

Can you guys distribute -9n-8-3n=6n-8 and figure out how many solutions it has plz
nydimaria [60]
First combine like terms (-9n-3n=-12n)
Then, subtract 6n on both sides (to get rid of the 6n) = -18n
Then, add 8 to both sides (does not matter) = 0
Finally divide (answer is 0)
