The answer is forty five.
There is 2 midpoints on a line segment.
A group of people help each other cope with a particular problem.
6 and 2/3 that is the answer
Complete question is;
Andrea is given ABC and told that a² + b² = c². She draws right triangle RTS with legs measuring a and b and hypotenuse measuring 2. Which best describes what Andrea should
do in order to prove that ABC is a right triangle?
Answer:
Andrea should show that c = 2, so: ∡ABC = ∡RTS and ∡C = ∡S. Hence, ∡C is a right angled triangle, hence ΔABC is a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are told that the given sides of the triangle are a, b and c. Now, Andrea is able to draw the two sides of the right triangle with sides = a and b and the third, hypotenuse equal to 2. Since the length of the hypotenuse = 2, then we have;
2² = a² + b²
However, we are told that c² = a² + b²
Therefore, c = 2
Hence, Andrea should show that c = 2 so ΔABC = ΔRTS and ∡C = ∡S hence ∡C is a right angled triangle since it is the angle opposite to the hypotenuse c and therefore, ΔABC is a right triangle.
