Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras theorem, a²+b²=c², where c represents the diagonal and a and b represents the other sides of a right angled triangle

As a flag is a rectangle, the two triangles cut would be  right angled triangles

Therefore, a²+9²=15²

a²+81=225

a²=144

a=√144

a=12 feet

Answer:

y=(3/2)x+-14

First blank: 3

Second blank:2

Last blank:-14

Step-by-step explanation:

The line form being requested is slope-intercept form, y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Also perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes so the slope of the line we are looking for is the opposite reciprocal of -2/3 which is 3/2.

So the equation so far is

y=(3/2)x+b.

We know this line goes through (x,y)=(4,-8).

So we can use this point along with our equation to find b.

-8=(3/2)4+b

-8=6+b

-14=b

The line is y=(3/2)x-14.

Given the following formula, solve for v.<br> s = 1/2a^2v + c
weeeeeb [17]

Since there is no initial condition, the exact value of v cannot be determined, but you can set the equation up for a general evaluation of the situation.

s = 1/2a^2*v+c

First you need to subtract c from both sides to get

s-c = 1/2a^2*v

then you can just divide both sides by 1/2a^2 to get v

(2(s-c))/a^2=v

when dividing a fraction, such as 1/2, make sure to keep in mind that you're really multiplying the flipped version, so that dividing by 1/2 means multiplying by 2.

A right triangle has a hypotenuse length of 60, and one side length of 24. Do the side lengths form a Pythagorean triple? Explai
Alexeev081 [22]
You can test this using the equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

24^2 + b^2 = 60^2

576 + b^2 = 3,600

b^2 = 3,024

b = 54.999

Since b is not a whole number, the side lengths do not form a Pythagorean triple.
