Answer: The answer is 9 units

Step-by-step explanation: What we have in the question is a right angled triangle. The hypotenuse (41 units) has been given as well as one of the other two sides (40 units).

The Pythagoras theorem states that;

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

Where AC is the hypotenuse and AB and BC are the other two sides. We now have

41^2 = 40^2 + BC^2

1681 = 1600 - BC^2

Subtract 1600 from both sides of the equation

81 = BC^2

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

9 = BC

Therefore the exact length of the third side is 9 units

Answer:

third side = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let the third side be x, then

x² + 40² = 41², that is

x² + 1600 = 1681 ( subtract 1600 from both sides )

x² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{81} = 9

The third side is 9

Answer:

b = 12.6

Step-by-step explanation:

a*2 + b*2 = c*2

6*2 + b*2 = 14*2

36 + b*2 = 196

Subtract 36 from both sides

36 + b*2 = 196

-36             -36

b*2 = 160

Find the square root of both

b = 12.64911064  or 12.6

Work out the volume of this prism?
qaws [65]

Answer:

V = 300 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of the prism is calculated as

V = Ah ( A is the area of the base and h the height )

Here A = 15 and h = 20 , then

V = 15 × 20 = 300 cm³

Yesterday, Jack drove 35 1/2 miles used 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline. What is the unit rate for miles per gallon?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

28.4 miles/gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the answer, you need to find the constant by dividing the miles drove by the amount of gasoline (or the other way around in terms of wording if it is not correct grammar) So you need to do 35.5/1.25 .  FYI I converted the fraction to decimal. The answer is 28.4 miles/gallon.

Hope this helped!! :)
