Answer:

Therefore other two sides of the triangle are 4 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given one leg of a right triangle has a length of 3

Let other sides of the triangle be x and x+1 [ since they are consecutive]

According to the problem,

3²+x²=(x+1)²

⇔9 + x²=x²+2x+1

⇔2x+1=9

⇔2x=9-1

⇔2x=8

⇔x=4

Therefore other two sides of the triangle are 4 and 5.

The length of a rectangle is three times its breadth if the breadth is decreased by 2 m and breadth increased by 4 m the area of
White raven [17]

Answer:

Let the breadth is x, then the length is 3x.

<u>The area is:</u>

  • A = lw = 3x*x = 3x²

<u>The breadth is decreased by 2 m: </u>

  • w = x - 2

<u>The length is increased by 4m: </u>

  • l = 3x + 4

<u>The area is now:</u>

  • (x - 2)(3x + 4) = 3x² - 1/3(3x²)
  • 3x² +  4x - 6x - 8 = 2x²
  • x² - 2x - 8 = 0
  • x² - 2x + 1 = 9
  • (x - 1)² = 3²
  • x - 1 = 3
  • x = 4

The breadth was 4 m and the length  12 m

20 points! Identify the solids that form the compos
Troyanec [42]

The composite shape is made up of a cube with a side length of 5 inches and a cylinder with a radius of 2 inches and a height of 4 inches.

The composite solid's surface area is 225.4 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The given composite shape is made up of a cube with a side length of 5 inches and a cylinder with a radius of 2 inches and a height of 4 inches.

The surface area of the composite shape is given by summing the individual surface areas.

The composite shape's surface area = The cube's surface area + the cylinder's surface area.

Step 2:

Any cube's surface area is calculated by multiplying 6 with the square of the side length (a^2).

The cube's surface area = 6a^2 = 6(5^{2} ) = 150 square inches.

Step 3:

Any cylinder's surface area is calculated with the following formula;

The cylinder's surface area = 2 \pi r h+2 \pi r^{2} = 2 \pi (2) (4)+2 \pi (2)^{2} = 75.398 square inches

Step 4:

The composite shape's surface area = The cube's surface area + the cylinder's surface area.

The composite shape's surface area = 150 + 75.398 = 225.398 square inches. Rounding this off, we get the area as 225.4 square inches.
