Answer:  The correct option is (B) 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the length of the leg s in the triangle shown in the figure.

From the figure, we note that

the given triangle is a right-angled one, where

length of the hypotenuse, H = √18 units,

length of one leg, P = 3 units

and

length of the other leg, s = B =?.

From Pythagoras theorem, we have

H^2=P^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow (\sqrt{18})^2=3^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow 18=9+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=18-9\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=9\\\\\Rightarrow B=3.

Thus, the length of the leg s is 3 units.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Given that rectangle MNOP~ rectangle STUV~, what is the length of ___<br> TU
IrinaK [193]

A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. The value of x or the length of TU is 22.5.

<h3>What is a rectangle?</h3>

That parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. A rectangle is always a parallelogram and a quadrilateral but the reverse statement may or may not be true.

Since all the rectangles are similar, therefore, the corresponding sides of the rectangle will be in ratio. Therefore,

\dfrac{\text{Length of STUV}}{\text{Length of MNOP}} = \dfrac{9}{6}

Similarly, the breadth will be,

\dfrac{\text{Width of STUV}}{\text{Width of MNOP}} = \dfrac{\text{Length of STUV}}{\text{Length of MNOP}}\\\\\\\dfrac{\text{Width of STUV}}{\text{Width of MNOP}} = \dfrac{9}{6}\\\\\\\dfrac{x}{15}=\dfrac96\\\\\\x = \dfrac{9 \times 15}{6} = 22.5

Hence, the value of x or the length of TU is 22.5.

5t 8=43 whats t.I WILL GIVE 50 POINTS AND IF YOU DONT RECEIVE THE POINTS TELL ME AND I WILL GIVE THEM.PLZ HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
lawyer [7]

==> I can't be sure of the equation.  There's a blank space
        between '5t' and '8', where an operation must be.
       I think the operation is more likely ' + ' (addition).  Brainly usually
       does show the ' - ' if it's subtraction, but goes blank if it's addition.
       Tell you what I'll do:  Since you sound so desperate, and you're being
       so generous with your points,  I'll show you how to figure it out both ways.

----------------------------------------

If it's subtraction:                 5t - 8 = 43

Add  8  to each side:              5t      = 51

Divide each side by  5 :            t     = 51/5

                                                 t     = 10 and 1/5

--------------------------------------------

If it's addition:                         5t + 8  =  43

Subtract  8  from each side:     5t        =  35

Divide each side by  5 :             t        =   7

What does this equal tox= -9
Len [333]
I'm guessing you mean which equation Equals -9

In each equation you are needing to get rid of X so you divide on both sides

A) -45=5x

-45/5=x
-9=x

and I double checked to make sure nothing else equaled -9 so Your answer Is A

Hope this helped!
