In the right triangle what is the value of pq

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sergeu [11.5K]3 years ago
6 0

The exercise is solved by applying the Pythagorean Theorem, which is:


 h²= a² + b² 


 h: It is the hypotenuse of the right triangle (the opposite side of the right angle and the longest side of the triangle).

 a and b: They are the legs of the right triangle (the sides that form the right angle).


 You want to find the value of PQ, which is a leg. Then, you have:


 h²= a²+b²

 a²=h²-b²

 a=√(h²-b²)


 Let's substitute the values of the hypotenuse (h) and the other leg (b) of the triangle, into the formula a=√(h²-b²):


 a=√(h²-b²)

 a=√(17²-12²)

 a=12 cm


 What is the value of PQ?


 The answer is: 12 cm

A family drove a total of 5,300 miles.They drove 10 more miles in tj second half of the trip than the first half. How many did t
AVprozaik [17]

If they drove a total of 5,300 miles in 2 days, and on the second day they drove 10 more miles then the 1st day.

5,300 ÷ 2 = 2,650

they drove 10 miles less on the first day

2,650 - 10 = 2,640

They drove 2,640 miles on the first day.

Hope this helps. :)

The number of freshman at George Washington high school is 60 greater than the number of sophomores. If there are 1250 students
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Hence total number freshman presented are 655.

The system is relative system as there is correlation between freshman and

sophomores<em>.</em><em>( as freshman are 60 more than the Sophomores)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1250 total students of sophomores and freshman.

To Find:

freshman count and its type of system used.

Solution:

We have that ,

consider x be the no.of freshman and y be the sophomores

So by given condition,

x+y=1250        ,..............................Equation(1)

And other one,

x=60+y

Use above value in equation (1) we get ,

60+y+y=1250

2y=1250-60

y=595

Now number of freshman ,

x+y=1250

x=1250-595

x=655

Hence total number freshman presented are 655.

The system represent the relative proportion system.The break even and total value should include all students in university .

Relative means in relationship with one another .

As there are 60 more number of freshman than the sophomores.

Five hundred dollars more than 10% of am amount of money $m is $1280. Find m.
In-s [12.5K]
For this one, we need to make an equation to make it look easier
(0.10 × m) + 500 = 1280
We solve for m
Subtract 500 from both sides and we get
0.10 × m = 780
Now, divide both sides by 0.10
And m would be equal to 7800
Let's see if this is correct.
Five hundred dollars more than 10% of m
We found that 10% of m is 780, now we add 500 to make the statement true. It will give us a total of 1280, which is equal of what the question says.
I hope this helps.
YOU'RE WELCOME :D
