This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question and image is also attached below.

How much longer is the hypotenuse of the triangle than its shorter leg?

a. 2 ft

b. 4 ft

c. 8 ft

d. 10 ft

Answer : The correct option is, (b) 4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem in ΔACB :

(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2

(AB)^2=(AC)^2+(BC)^2

Given:

Side AC = 6 ft

Side BC = 8 ft

Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of side AB.

(AB)^2=(6)^2+(8)^2

AB=\sqrt{(6)^2+(8)^2}

AB=10ft

Now we have to calculate the how much longer is the hypotenuse of the triangle than its shorter leg.

Difference = Side AB - Side AC

Difference = 10 ft - 6 ft

Difference = 4 ft

Therefore, the 4 ft longer is the hypotenuse of the triangle than its shorter leg.

Answer:

0.09 or 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

I = Prt

r = I/(Pt)

Given:

I = 1350

P = 5000

t = 3

Finding r:

r = I/(Pt)

r = 1350/(5000 x 3)

r = 1350/15000

r = 0.09

0.09 or 9%
