Answer: 9.17cm

Since it is a right angle triangle, we can use <span>Pythagoras T<span>heorem to find the missing leg.

</span></span>-------------------------------------------------<span>
Formula 
-------------------------------------------------
a</span>² + b² = c², c being the hypotenuse.

The hypotenuse, denoted by c, is 10cm. One leg, denoted by a, is 4cm.  Apply the formula and solve for the other leg, denoted by b.

-------------------------------------------------
Solve the missing side
-------------------------------------------------
a² + b² = c²
4² + b² = 10²
16 + b² = 100             ←subtract 16 from both sides
-16           -16
b² = 84                       ←square root both sides
b = √84
b = 9.17 (nearest hundredth)

So the other leg, denoted by b, is 9.17cm

-------------------------------------------------
Answer: 9.17 cm

Help me find the answer to this area of a kite problem
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a kite = 1/2 * D1 * D2   were D1 and D2 are the 2 diagonals

D1  = 5 + 2.5 = 7.5 and D2 = 2*44444.5 = 9

So area = 1/2 * 7.5 * 9

= 33.75.

=) The perimeter of a rectangular field is 336 m.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Length of the field: 94 m

Width of the painting: 61 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w, to find the length:

Plug in the perimeter and width into the equation:

P = 2l + 2w

336 = 2l + 2(74)

336 = 2l + 148

188 = 2l

94 = l

So, the length of the field is 94 m.

To find the width of the painting, use the area formula, A = lw

Plug in the area and length into the equation:

A = lw

5795 = 95w

61 = w

So, the width of the painting is 61 cm.

Length of the field: 94 m

Width of the painting: 61 cm

Gekata [30.6K]

Draw a graph of the temperatures; if the points form a straight line, then the temperatures vary directly , Option B is the correct answer.

<h3>What is Direct Variation ?</h3>

When a quantity of one variable is increased and the value of the other also increases then they are said to be in direct variation.

For the data to be in direct variation

Draw a graph of the temperatures; if the points form a straight line, then the temperatures vary directly.

The points in any linear equation can only fluctuate directly, therefore all points will lie on the same line.

Option B is the correct answer.
