In a right triangle PQR,∠Q=90

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nikitich [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a) PR = 17 cm, b) QR = 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

∠Q=90, so PQ and QR are legs, and PR is hypotenuse.

Pythagorean theorem PQ² + QR² = PR²

a) PQ² + QR² = PR²

    8² + 15² = PR²

PR² = 289

PR = 17 cm

b) PQ² + QR² = PR²

   8² + QR² = 10²

64 + QR² = 100

QR² = 36

QR = 6 cm

Alex dumped out his piggy bank and there were only
maria [59]

Answer:

12 nickels

36 dimes

52 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = no. of nickels

3x = no. of dimes

x + 40 = no. of quarters

5x = value of the nickels since each nickel is 5 cents

10(3x) = 30x = value of the dimes since each dime is 10 cents

25(x + 40) = 25x + 1000 = value of the quarters since each quarter is 25 cents

Now, 5x + 30x + 25x + 1000 = 1720     ($17.20 = 1720 cents)

60x + 1000 = 1720

60x = 720

x = 12 nickels

3x = 36 dimes

x + 40 = 52 quarters

Check:  12 nickels are worth $.60

36 dimes are worth $3.60

52 quarters are worth $13

.60 + 3.60 + 13 = 17.20
