Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem states that a² + b² = c². But what does this actually mean? First of all we need to recognise that it only works in right-angled triangle. If I put the values in you would a² + 15² = 25². So we have to solve for "a". A = DC

a² + 15² = 25²

→ Minus 15² from both sides to isolate a²

a² = 25² - 15²

→ Work out 25² - 15²

a² = 400

→ Square root both sides to isolate a

a = 20

true or fales: a significant correlation indicates that changes in the values of one factie cause changes in the values of a sec

natka813 [3]

Answer:

A significant correlation means that there is a significant (in a statistical point of view) correlation between two things.

Then a significant correlation means that we have a (measurable) correlation between the variables in our experiment.

Now, the factors are the variables that experimenters control during an experiment in order to determine their effect on the response variable, then having a positive correlation between two factors, means that when we change one, the other is also affected by the change in the first one.

Then the statement is true.
