Answer:  The correct choice is 10√2 units.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to select the correct choice that gives the length of the leg of a 45-45-90 triangle with a hypotenuse of 20.

Since the given triangle is an isosceles right-angled triangle, so let x units be the length of each of the legs.

Using the Pythagoras theorem, we get

x^2+x^2=20^2\\\\\Rightarrow 2x^2=400\\\\\Rightarrow x^2=\dfrac{400}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x^2=200\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm\sqrt{2\times100}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm10\sqrt2.

Since x is the length of the leg of the given triangle, so we get

x = 10√2 units.

Thus, the correct choice is 10√2 units.

You have to give them the same denominator so multiply 11/12 by 4 and 3/16 by 3. giving you 44/48 and 9/48. then divied 44 by 9 giving you 4.8888

The correct answer is option D

The solution is shown below:

x^{2} +16 \\  \\ 
= x^{2} +(4)^{2} \\  \\ 
= x^{2} -(-1)(4)^{2}   \\  \\ 
= x^{2} -i^{2} (4)^{2} \\  \\ 
= x^{2} -(4i)^{2} \\  \\ 
=(x+4i)(x-4i)

Subtract using the number line -3/5 - (-2/5) (picture provided)
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

<h2>-1/5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting at -3/5 you need to subtract -2/5.

When you subtract a negative number, the sign flips and you add instead. Often, you are taught that two similar signs means add and two opposite signs mean minus.

<em>+ + = +</em>

<em>- - = -</em>

<em>+ - = -</em>

<em>- + = -</em>

<em />

This means -3/5 - -2/5 becomes -3/5 + 2/5.

Because you are adding, you move two lines to the right on the number line.

You end at -1/5.
