How many unique triangles can be made when one angle measures 90° and another angle is half that measure?
1 answer:
In a right-triangle, if either of the other two angles are "half that measure", or half of 90°, that means 45°, then the last angle will also have to be a 45° one too, and the sides coming from the 90° angle, will be equal twins, and therefore they can only make up one type-length hypotenuse, and due to that, you can only make that one triangle.

Answer:
3 km per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
You can deduct the answer instinctively since both the distance and the time of the descent are expressed in /5... so you can just get rid of the '/5' in both instances to get the result: 3 kilometers in 1 hour.
But you can also find it easily using the cross-multiplication system:
Then you multiply each side by 5 to get
3 km = 1 hour
Thus the rate of descent is of 3 km per hour.
