The Pythagorean Theorem

Mathematics
2 answers:
kompoz [17]4 years ago
8 0

The Pythagorean theorem states that for any right angle triangle with legs of length a, b and the hypotenuse of length c, the sum of the squares of the legs equals the a square of hypotenuse. It is represented by the equation.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Example:-

3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

9 + 16 = 25

25 = 25

What is the length of segment AB?
olasank [31]

Answer:

The answer is 6.403

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2, we can plug 4 units into a, and 5 units into b. Plugging these into the formula results in 4^2 + 5^2 = c^2. Simplifying, we get 16 + 25 = c^2. Simplifying even more, we get 41 = c^2. Using a calculator to get the square root of both sides results in c = 6.40312424.

A company makes two sizes of cylindrical shaped boxes. The ratio of the heights is 5:7.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The volume ratio is also 5 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by the following formula:

volume = pi*r²*h

Since we have two cylinders and their height varies at a ratio of 5:7 we can say that the smaller one has a height of "h" while the bigger has height of "(7/5)*h". Thefore their volume is:

volume smaller = pi*r²*h

volume bigger = pi*r²*(7/5)*h

volume bigger = (7/5)*pi*r²*h

The ratio of their volume is given by the division of the smaller volume by the bigger one:

volume ratio = volume smaller / volume bigger

volume ratio = (pi*r²*h) / [(7/5)*pi*r²*h] = 1/(7/5)

volume ratio = 5/7

The volume ratio is also 5 : 7.

f a rectangle is not a square, what is the greatest number of lines of symmetry that can be drawn?A. 1B. 0C. 2D. 3 or more
zhenek [66]

If the rectangle is not a square, then the sides must not be equal.

Thus, the rectangle can be cut horizontally, vertically, and diagonally. Therefore, it must be option D, which is "3 or more".

G= -2x -2 , for x<br><br> Please help show work
icang [17]

Add 2 to both sides

g + 2 = -2x

Divide both sides by -2

-g + 2/2 = x

Simplify g + 2/2 to 1 + g/2

-(1 + g/2) = x

Simplify brackets

-1 - g/2 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = -1 - g/2</u>
