Answer:

Options A and B are applicable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of the sides of a right triangle obey the Pythagoras Theorem that says (Perpendicular)² + (Base)² = (Hypotenuse)².

Now, in option A, the side lengths are 11, 13, and √(290).

So, those lengths form a right triangle as 11² + 13² = {√(290)}².

Again, in option B, the given side lengths are 7, 24, and 25.

So, those lengths form a right triangle as 7² + 24² = 25².

Finally, in option C, the given side lengths are 2, 5, and 7.

But, those lengths do not form a right triangle as 2² + 5² ≠ 7².

Therefore, options A and B are applicable. (Answer)

Geometry question on finding x.

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

$x =63^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

$\text{ $\overline{MN} $ and $\overline{ML}$ are tangents .}$

We know that the tangents are perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact . And here OLMN is a quadrilateral. Also we know that , the angle sum property a triangle is 360° .

According to question :-

$\implies x + 117^o + 90^o +90^o = 360^o \\\\\implies x + 297^o = 360^o \\\\\implies x = 360^o - 297^o \\\\\implies x = 63^o$

Hence the value of x is 63° .

How do you solve 3 1/4 - 1 5/6

rjkz [21]

Answer:

to solve $3\frac{1}{4} -1\frac{5}{6}$ you would first need to convert them from mixed numbers to improper fractions. You can do this by multiplying the denominator with the whole number and then adding the numerator. Then you should make sure that the denominators are the same. You can do this by first finding a number that they will both multiply into. In this example it is 12. And when changing the denominator you must apply it to the numerator. So if you multiplied the denominator by 3 then you must multiply the numerator by 3. After you can just minus the numerators. However remember to keep the denominator the same. Then you can change it back into a mixed number by dividing the numerator by the denominator and having that whole number on the side of the fraction . lets say it is $\frac{13}{6}$ then you would divide 13 by 6 which is 2 and a decimal and then minus the number that is multiplied by the numerator and it will give a number that is smaller than the denominator and then it would become $2\frac{1}{6}$ .
