According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) of a right-angled triangle equals to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the ladder is the hypotenuse, which equals to the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the tree + the distance we want to find (x):
5² + x² = 13²
25 + x² = 169
x² = 144
x = √144 = 12.
The distance between the ground and the top of the ladder is 12 ft.
Answer:
521,400 meters squared
Step-by-step explanation:
With the 1cm = 100m scale
6.6 cm = 660m
7.9 cm = 790m
Area = 660 x 790 = 521,400 meters squared
Here you go... please note the values are different on your y axis ☺️
Answer:
40,40 and 100
Step-by-step explanation:
You know the first two angles are identical, so let's call them x.
The third angle is 20 more than twice the measure of either angle, which means 2x+20.
The angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.
(x)+(x)+(2x+20)=180
4x+20=180
4x=160
x=40 degrees
This means the angle measures equal 40 degrees, 40 degrees, and 100 degrees.
