Papessa [141]3 years ago

Answer:

The side lengths cannot belong to a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple case of Pythagorean proof. If this triangle was a right triangle, 20^2 + 21^2 = 28^2. However, this is not the case. 20^2 + 21^2 = 841, which square root is 29.

If you forgot, the Pythagoren Theorem is: a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

77% and as a fraction it would be 77/100

Step-by-step explanation:

0.77 is a decimal that is in the hundredths place so you already know that it'll be 77% right away then for the fraction you would just put it over 100 but since 77 is an uneven number you cannot simplify it otherwise you would.

Masja [62]

Answer:

120 4-digit numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the numbers to be divisible by 5 they must end in 5.

So the  total number of first 3 digits of the 4-digit number are given by the

number of permutations of 3 from the numbers 1,2,3,4,6 and 7 (6 digits)

= 6P3

=  6! / (6-3)!

= 6*5*4

= 120.
