According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) of a right-angled triangle equals to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the ladder is the hypotenuse, which equals to the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the tree + the distance we want to find (x):
5² + x² = 13²
25 + x² = 169
x² = 144
x = √144 = 12.
The distance between the ground and the top of the ladder is 12 ft.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
the volume of the cylinder is 3769.91
the volume of the cube is 1000
so the cylinder's volume is clearly larger than the cube's volume.
We can set up the width a X and, from the description the length would be 3X-1. The perimeter of a rectangle is determined by 2XL + 2Xw. Plugging into the equation 2(3X-1) + 2(X) = 118. Next distribute to get 6X-2 + 2X = 118. Combine like terms to get 8X = 120. Divide by 8 to get X = 15. The width is 15. The length is 3(15)-1 or 44. 88 +30 = 118
Working conditions in the United States in the early 1900’s can best be described as atrocious.
Answer:
1,58,18,400
Step-by-step explanation:
1st digit can have the values 1-9 (9 distinct values)
2nd digit can have the values 0-9 (10 distinct values)
3rd digit can have the values 0-9 (10 distinct values)
1st letter can have the value A-Z (26 distinct values)
2nd letter can have the value A-Z (26 distinct values)
3rd letter can have the value A-Z (26 distinct values)
Total number of different plates possible = 9*10*10*26*26*26
=1,58,18,400
