Answer:

6 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the fractions so that the denominators match.

$3\frac{3}{4} =3\frac{6}{8}$ , then $3\frac{6}{8}=\frac{30}{8}$

$1\frac{1}{8}=\frac{9}{8}$

$2\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$ , then $\frac{3}{2}=\frac{12}{8}$

Add up the fractions.

$\frac{30}{8}+\frac{9}{8}+\frac{12}{8} =\frac{51}{8} =6\frac{3}{8}$

A right triangle has leg measures of 8 and 15 inches. What is the area and perimeter of the triangle?

rewona [7]

Hello!

<h3><em><u>Answer</u></em></h3>

The area of the right triangle is 30 $in^{2}$ . The perimeter is 40 in.

<h3><em><u>Explanation</u></em></h3>

First, we must find the measure of the hypotenuse of the triangle by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

$a^{2}$ + $b^{2} = c^{2}$

$8^{2} + 15^{2} = c^{2}$

64 + 225 = $c^{2}$

√289 = $c^{2}$

17 = $c$

Now that we have all the side lengths, we can use the formulas to find the area and perimeter.

A = $\frac{bh}{2}$

A = (15 × 8) ÷ 2

A = 30

<h3>PERIMETER:</h3>

P = a + b + c

P = 8 + 15 + 17

P = 40
