Use pythagorean's theorem to solve for missing sides of a right triangle.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 11
b = 17
c = We don't know yet so I'll call it x

11^2 + 17^2 = c^2

121 + 289 = c^2

410 = c^2

c = √410

c = 20.2

Thus, the answer is B.

Hope this helps, and May the Force Be With You!

The scatterplot shows the distance (in feet) that a person was from a motion sensor during an experiment in math class. Use the

iragen [17]

Answer:

B.) 27ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The labeled points given: (5,18) and (1.5, 7.5)

Slope = (18 - 7.5)/(5-1.5) = 10.5 / 3.5 = 3

A linear model:

y - 18 = 3(x - 5)

y - 18 = 3x - 15

y = 3x + 3

If x = 8 seconds then the distance in feet (y) would be: (plug in x = 8 into the equation y = 3x + 3)

y = 3(8) + 3

y = 24 + 3

y = 27 ft

Answer:

B.) 27ft

Describe lengths of three segments that could not be used to form a triangle. Segments with lengths of 5 in., 5 in., and ______

Vesna [10]

Answer:

$c = 11$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the three sides be a, b and c

Such that:

$a = b= 5$

Required

Find c such that a, b and c do not form a triangle

To do this, we make use of the following triangle inequality theorem

$a + b > c$

$a + c > b$

$b + c > a$

To get a valid triangle, the above inequalities must be true.

To get an invalid triangle, at least one must not be true.

Substitute: $a = b= 5$

$5 + 5 > c$ $===>$ $10 > c$

$5 + c > 5$ $===>$ $c > 5 - 5$ $===>$ $c > 0$

The results of the inequality is: $10 > c$ and $c > 0$

Rewrite as: $c > 0$ and $c < 10$

$0 < c < 10$

This means that, the values of c that make a valid triangle are 1 to 9 (inclusive)

Any value outside this range, cannot form a triangle

So, we can say:

$c = 11$ , since no options are given

Answer:

A. add the areas of both bases to the rectangular area around the cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we flatten out the cylinder we would have two circles and a rectangle. When you roll up the rectangle, it would make the body of the cylinder. Surface area by definition the total area the surface of an object occupies.

So to get it, we add up the different shapes that make up the cylinder, which is the two circles and the rolled up rectangle.
