When you say "I want to make sure that I solved them correctly,
the tasteful, less suspicious thing to do is to list YOUR solutions,
so that the responder can either say "that one's correct" or else
show you how to do it.

1). HHH
HHT
HTH
HTT
THH
THT
TTH
TTT
a). The probability of each one is 1/8 = 12.5% .
b). There's only one of those on the list. 12.5%
c). 12.5%
d). There are 3 ways that can happen. 3/8 = 0.375 = 37.5%

2). There are 16 possible outcomes.
a). Prob of each outcome is 1/16 = 0.0625 = 6.25% .
b). There's only 1 way that can happen, so it's 6.25% .
c). There's only 1 way that can happen, so it's 6.25% .
d). There are 6 ways that can happen. Prob = 6/16 = 37.5%
e). There are 4 ways that can happen. Prob = 4/16 = 25%

How do you find the hypotenuse

inysia [295]

Given two right triangle legs
Use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the hypotenuse from right triangle sides. Take a square root of sum of squares:
c = √(a² + b²)

Louie is trying to find a rectangular canvas for his art project. Its height

Maru [420]

The length of the diagonal of the canvas is approximately 27 degrees.

The height of the rectangular canvas must reach 18 inches. It must form a 48 degrees angle with the diagonal at the top of the canvas.

<h3>Length of the diagonal Canvas</h3>

Therefore, the length of the diagonal can be found as follows:

Using trigonometric ratio,

cos ∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse

where

∅ = 48°

adjacent side = Height of the rectangle = 18 inches

hypotenuse = Length of the diagonal

Therefore,

cos 48° = 18 / h

cross multiply

h = 18 / cos 48°

h = 18 / 0.66913060635

h = 26.9005778976

length of the diagonal ≈ 27 inches

can someone please help me find the surface area of the pyramid with an equilateral triangle for a base

ioda

To obtain the total surface we have to calculate the surface of the 4 triangles and add up the areas (remember that the area of a triangle is (b*h)/2 , b is the base, h is the height ).

We will caculate first the area of the base triangle for that we considerer the fact that it is an equilateral triangle with sides of lenght 6 cm, now we calculate the height, I am going to draw please wait a moment

using the pythagorean theorem we have that

$\begin{gathered} h^2=6^2cm^2-3^2\operatorname{cm}=27cm^2 \\ h=\text{ }\sqrt[]{27\text{ }}cm \end{gathered}$

Then, the area of the triangle is 6*h/2 = 3h = 15.59 cm^2.

Now we calculate the area of the other 3 triangles, notice that those triangles have the same base and height so we will calculate for one of them and multiply by 3. From the image we know that the height is 15cm and the base is 6 cm so the area is 45cm^2, and 45*3 cm^2 = 135cm^2.

Finally we add up all the areas:
