All you have to do is the pythagorean theorem. 

6 squared + 21 squared = 23 squared

If this is true, then it is a right triangle.

 In this case, it isn't. It is not a right triangle.

To solve this problem, you can plug your values for the triangle's side lengths into the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem is a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle, so when you plug in your values for this triangle, you must plug 23 for c, like so:

6² + 21² = 23²

Now you can solve; if 6² + 21² is indeed equal to 23², the triangle is a right triangle.

6² + 21² = 23²
36 + 441 = 529
477 ≠ 529

477 is not equal to 529, so this triangle is not a right triangle.

A company manufactures aluminum mailboxes in the shape of a box with a half-cylinder top. The company will make 1960 mailboxes t
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

  7088 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the half-cylinder is half the area of a cylinder with the same dimensions. This half-cylinder has a radius of 0.3 m and a length of 0.8 m, so its area is ...

  A = πr(r +l) = π(0.3 m)(0.3 m+0.8 m) = 0.33π m² ≈ 1.0362 m²

The area of the bottom part of the box is the sum of its lateral area and its base area.

  lateral area = Ph = (2(0.6m +0.8m))(0.75 m) = 2.1 m²

  base area = lw = (0.8 m)(0.6 m) = 0.48 m²

The total area is then ...

  total area = half-cylinder area + lateral area + base area

  = 1.0362 m² +2.1 m² +0.48 m²

  = 3.6162 m²

__

The area for 1960 mailboxes will be 1960 times this area, or ...

  area for week's production = 1960 × 3.6162 m² = 7087.752 m²

It will take about 7088 square meters of aluminum to make these mailboxes.

For triangle ABC, find the measure of AB given me∠ A = 55 degrees, m∠b= 44 degrees, and b=6. . A. 45.22. B.96.68. C.88.19. .
jekas [21]
There exist a similar question where b = 68 instead of 6. First, determine the measure of the third angle, angle C,
                               m∠c = 180 - (55° + 44°) = 81°
Let x be the side AB, that which is opposite to angle C. Through the Sine Law,
                                  68 / sin 44° = x / sin 81°
From the equation, the value of x is equal to 96.68. Thus, the answer is letter B.

Which is the x-intercept of the graph of the equation y=3x−9?
padilas [110]
Y=3x−9

y=3(0)-9

y=9


Now plug in y to solve for x.

y=3x−9

9=3x-9

18=3x

6=x

The x-intercept is (6,0)
