Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
A simple matter of using Pythagoras. The hypotenuse is the ladder, and one of the legs is the wall, and we have to figure out the value of the other leg.
The Pythagorean formuda is (hypotenuse = a): a² + b² = c² (b and c are the other sides)
applying the values: a = 5 and b or c is 3 (I'll put b = 3)
5² = 3² + c²
25 = 9 + c²
25 - 9 = c²
16 = c²
√16 = c
4 = c
c = 4
Answer:
Triangle A and Triangle B
Answer:
= 5n
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference d between consecutive terms
d = 10 - 5 = 15 - 10 = 20 - 15 = 25 - 20 = 30 - 25 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with explicit formula
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 5 and d = 5 , then
= 5 + 5(n - 1) = 5 + 5n - 5 = 5n
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle is a 30-60-90 right triangle.
The ratio of the lengths of the sides is:

The order of the sides in the ratio above is
short leg : long leg : hypotenuse
The long leg is sqrt(3) times the length of the short leg.




The hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg.


Answer: 1/5 or 0.2 in decimal form.
Explanation:
There are 60 seconds in a minute. We know the river flows 12 ft per 1 minute. So in order to find the rate per seconds, divide: 60/12. You get the answer: 1/5 or 0.2 in decimal form.
