Which of the following statements are true of the hypotenuse of a right triangle?

Mathematics

Answer:

<h2>It is the longest side of a right triangle.</h2><h2>It is opposite the right angle.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, remember that the hypothenuse of a right triangle is the largest side of all three. Also, the hypothenuse is always in front of the right angle. Those two characteristics are used to determined which side is the hypothenuse in a right triangle.

So, basically, the first choice is correct: It is the longest side of a right triangle.

The third choice is also correct: It is opposite the right angle.

Additionally, the legs are the ones which form the right triangle and the length of the hypothenuse is not the sum of the lengths of the other two sides, because that actually violates the triangular inequality which defined all existing triangles.

Therefore, the right answers are first and third choices.

The marked price of a radio is 25 % above the selling price and the cost price is
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

mp=sp+25%ofsp=1.25sp

mp=1.25sp

sp=1/1.25×mp=0.8mp

cp=mp-30%ofmp=0.7mp

discount=mp-sp=mp-0.8mp=0.2mp

  1. discount %=discount/mp×100%=0.2mp/mp×100%=20%
  2. profit=sp-cp=0.8mp-0.7mp=0.1mp
  3. profit%=profit/cp×100%=0.1mp/0.7mp×100%=0.1×100/0.7%=10/0.7%=14.28%

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of soap that she makes and eventually sells.

She intially spent $72 to purchase soap-making equipment, and the materials for each pound of soap cost $7. This means that the total cost of making x pounds of soap would be

7x + 72

Lisa sells the soap for $10 per pound. This means that her revenue for x pounds of soap would be

10 × x = 10x

If she eventually sells enough soap to cover the cost of the equipment, then

7x + 72 = 10x

10x - 7x = 72

3x = 72

x = 72/3 = 24

She would need to sell make and sell 24 soaps.

The cost would be

72 + 7 × 24 = $240

The total sales would be

10 × 24 = $240
