If you need to you can write it out. the answer is X=14
Imagine a ladder leaning against the wall and you know the height of the ladder and its distance from the wall and you had to find out the height you could use pythagorean theorem here
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The average value of all the pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters in Paula's purse is 20 cents. If she had one more quarter, the average value would be 21 cents. How many dimes does she have in her purse
Pattern A starts with 20 and substracts 3
First number = 20
Second number = 20 - 3 = 17
Third number = 17 - 3 = 14
Fourth number = 14 - 3 = 11
Pattern B starts with 10 and adds 2
First number = 10
Second number = 10 + 2 = 12
Third number = 12 + 2 = 14
Fourth number = 14 + 2 = 16
Now join pattern A and B
First combination = (20,10)
Second combination = (17,12)
Third combination = (14, 14)
Fourth combination = (11, 16)
The answer is d. (20,10), (17,12), (14,14), (11,16)
Answer:
option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem can be solved using Pythagoras' identity for a right triangle.
The angle between due East and due North is 90°
The solution here involves using the Cosine rule.
let x be the direct distance between house and office, then
x² = 17² + 21² - 2(17)(21)cos90° → option 2
Note that since cos90° = 0 the equation reduces to
x² = 17² + 21² ← Pythagoras' identity
