What is the length of the longer side in this triangle

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elena L [17]3 years ago
5 0

Did you notice the little box with corners marked in the angle down at the bottom ?
That angle is a right angle, and <em>this triangle is a right triangle</em> !

This piece of information is a big help.  It breaks the problem wide open.
You know that in order to find the longest side of a right triangle . . .

-- Square the length of one short side.
-- Square the length of the other short side.
-- Add the two squares together.
-- Take the square root of the sum.

One short side=48.           Its square = 2,304.
The other short side=48.  Its square = 2,304.
Add the two squares:        2,304 + 2,304 = 4,608

The square root of the sum = √4,608 = <em><u>67.88</u></em> (rounded)

(b)

\frac{35}{50} → divide numerator and denominator by 5

= \frac{7}{10} = 0.7

(c)

\frac{60}{40} ← divide numerator and denominator by 4

Answer:

n^m = 5^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m^n = 32

Required

Find n^m

m^n = 32

Express 32 as an exponent

m^n = 2^5

By comparison:

m = 2

n = 5

So:

n^m = 5^2

Need help please! Not sure how to do this
Kisachek [45]
This problem is fairly simple if you know the exponential equation, you start with y=78(.17)^x. the you put 10=78(.17)^x, then you solve for x 

10=78(.17)^x 
-78
-68=.17^x 
divide .17 then you have your answer!!
