Hi there!
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the line.
If we draw an imaginary right triangle using the given line as the hypotenuse, we can derive a height of 6 units and a length of 10 units.
Use the Pythagorean theorem equation:
c² = a² + b²
Plug in the height and length:
c² = 6² + 10²
Simplify:
c² = 36 + 100
c² = 136
Take the square root of both sides:
c = √136. The correct answer is D.
First, find the digit in the place you are rounding to. Look at the digit one place to the right. If the digit is less than 5, round down. If the digit is 5 or greater, round up.
For example: round 1.86 to the nearest tenth
Look at the tenth digit (8). The number to the right of it is 6. Since it’s above 5, round the 8 up to 9. So you would get 1.9.
If it was 1.84, since 4 is less than 5, you would not round the 8, and you would get 1.8
the 3rd vertex is on the x axis line which means Y =0
since the longer leg is twice as long as the shorter leg and the length of the shorter leg is a, then twice the length would be 2a ( 2 times a)
so the 3rd vertex is (2a,0)
150% as a mixed number is 1.5 which = 1 1/2
