Answer:

B. (13√2)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of one leg of the triangle. We note that the triangle is isosceles, so both legs are the same length. Then the Pythagorean theorem tells you the square of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the legs:

13² = L² + L²

13² = 2L²

13 = (√2)L

L = 13/√2 = (13√2)/2 . . . length of one leg

_____

To "rationalize the denominator", we multiply the fraction 13/√2 by (√2)/(√2). The result is (13√2)/2.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

156 players

Step-by-step explanation:

The 9 players for baseball and 11 players for football are added. 9 + 11 = 20.

Once you have 20, you can multiply it by the 6 schools. Which gets you 120 players so far.

After you multiply the 4 schools by the 9 players for baseball. You’ll get 36. Add the 120 players to 36 players and you’ll get 156 players for the 10 schools in total
