Applying Pythagoras theorum to the situation ;

\alpha ^2 +  \beta ^2 = C^2 \\ \\ 9^2 +  \beta ^2 = 15^2 \\ \\ 81 +  \beta ^2 = 225 \\ \\ =>  \beta ^2 = 144 \\ \\ =>  \beta = 12 cm

Thus, the answer is 12 ft.

An animal park has lions, tigers and zebras. 17% of the animals are lions
Fittoniya [83]

3/10 is 30%

30% + 17% = 47%

100% is our total animals

100% - 47% (Lions + Zebras) =  53% (Tigers)

So 53% are tigers.
