You can use the pythagorean theorem. Make sure that you put the measurements in the right places though. Since 11 is the measure of the hypotenuse, 11 has to be c. When you plug in the information that you have, it should look like this:
8^2 + b^2 = 11^2

Square 8 and 11. 
64 + b^2 = 121

Subtract 64 from 121
121 - 64 = 57

The new equation is:
b^2 = 57

Now take the square root of both sides to get b by itself. 
b = about 7.5

Answer: The height of the triangle is 7.5

The prices for different types and amounts of building bricks are given. Select the options that have the same cost per brick.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

35 bricks for $25.90

35 bricks for $25.90

230 bricks for $170.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost per brick = number of bricks / price of bricks

1500/$1110 = $1.35

1300 / $845 = $1.54

230 / $170.20 = $1.35

100 / $75 = $1.33

35 / $25.90 = $1.35

Based on these calculations, the bricks that have the same cost per brick are :

35 bricks for $25.90

35 bricks for $25.90

230 bricks for $170.20

Which transformation can you use to show that these shapes are congruent?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Rotations, reflections, and translations are isometric. That means that these transformations do not change the size of the figure. If the size and shape of the figure is not changed, then the figures are congruent.

Explain the difference between perimeter and area.why do they measure?what type of units are they measured in?
just olya [345]
Perimeter is the distance around an object / shape. Area is the amount of space within a 2 dimensional surface. For example the perimeter of a square would be the lengths of each side added together while the area would be how much space inside of it that it occupies. Area is measured in units squared, while perimeter is left in just units. In other words if the unit ( measurements ) are conducted in cm, then the area would be put in cm^2. The perimeter would just remain in cm.
