Write 55 inches in feet and inches

2 answers:

7 0

The answer is 4ft 7inches

6 0

answer: 4 feet 7 inches

work:

there are 12 inches in 1 foot.

the answer wants inches and feet, so let's think: what's the largest number that is smaller than 55 but fits into 12? this number would be 48.

so, divide 12 by 48 and you get 4 (this means 4 feet)

to calculate how many inches we have left over, subtract the 48 from 55 and we will get our remainder.

55 - 48 = 7

so, this means we have 7 inches left over and combining that with our 4 feet, we have 4 feet 7 inches.

i hope this helps, and have a great day! don't hesitate to ask if you need more help with this specific question! ♥ - eviezoom

Answer:

If the perimeter of a square measures 32 cm, each side measures 32/4= 8 cm, because all sides are equal.
The diagonal that passes through the center of the square divides the square into two triangles. The triangles are formed by a hypotenuse (the diagonal, which is k in this case), and two sides, that measure 8 cm each, in this case.
Because of Pythagoras' theorem, we know that the lenght of the hypotenuse (in this case the hypotenuse is k) equals the squared root of the sum of the squared sides, which in this case can be expressed as $k=\sqrt{8^2+8^2} =\sqrt{64+64}=\sqrt{128}=11.31$ .
Then, k=11.31 cm.
