Answer:

2 1/3 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the area of the rectangle

A = l *w

4 * 1 1/6

4 * 7/6

28/6

Divide this in half since the rectangle is cut in half by using the diagonal

28/6 *1/2

28/12

7/3

Changing to a mixed number

2 1/3

A tree's height increase by 15%. If a tree is 23 feet high, how tall will it be in one year ?

Ghella [55]

Increased height:-

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 23\times 15\%$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 23\times \dfrac{15}{100}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{345}{100}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3.45$

Now current height:-

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 23+3.45=26.45ft$

Can anyone teach plsssss........................ Given that PR= 17cm and SR= 6cm.Find the length, in cm of TS.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since PQST is a rectangle, ∠QST=∠QSR=∠90º. So triangle QSR is a right triangle.
By the Pythagorean Theorem and that SR=6 and QR=10, we can say that 6^2+b^2=10^2. So, 36+b^2=100. And b^2=64 and b=8. So QS=8.
Now we know that QS=PT=8.
By the Pythagorean Theorem and that PR=17 and PT=8, we can say a^2+8^2=17^2. So, a^2+64=289. And a^2=225 and a=15.
We know that TR=15 and SR=6 and TR-SR=TS, so 15-6=9.
