Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that one side of the pancake is burned. The pancake you were served cannot be the one that is not burned on either side. Therefore, you were either served the pancake burned on both sides, or the pancake that was only burned in one side. Thus, there is a 50% percent chance that the other side is also burned.
D) The measures of the non- right angles in each triangle .
Answer:
0.5, 3/5, 0.78
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
