<span>No, it doesn't. To find out if it's a right angled triangle, we use Pythagorean triple. It states that the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the opposite and adjacent sides. Obviously, the longest side, which is our hypotenuse is 24. So we want to find out whether the square of our hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides i. e 13 and 21. 24^ 2 = 576 ; 13^2 = 169 ; 21^2 = 441; So is 576 = 169 + 441. An emphatic No: hence the triangle isn't right angled since it doesn't satisfy pythagorean triple.. A^2 is not equal to B^2 + C^2 where a is the hypotenuse and b and c the opposite and adjacent sides.</span>

Write the equation in standard form for the circle passing through ( - 2,0) centered at the origin.
Aleks04 [339]
X^2 + Y^2 = 4 This centers at origin, since h and k values are zero ( therefore nonexistent) and the radius is 2 so it goes through (-2,0)

Two particles are projected simultaneously towards each other from opposite ends of a straight
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The problem with this question is that it is missing an important number, which is the length of the tube. Assuming that the tube is 10 meters long (=1,000 centimeters long)

time (in        distance traveled         distance traveled       distance

seconds)     by particle A in cms     by particle B in cms    between both

                                                                                              particles in cms

1                               97                            49                     854

2                               93                            47                     714

3                               89                            45                     580

4                               85                            43                     452

5                               81                            41                     330

6                               77                            39                     214

7                               73                            37                     104

8                               69                            35                     0

   

After 8 seconds both particles should meet. Particle A traveled 664 centimeters and particle B traveled 336 centimeters.
