Answer:

90°

Step-by-step explanation:

5, 12 and 13 are the sides of a right triangle ( Pythagorean triple )

13 is the measure of the hypotenuse whose opposite angle is 90°

Tanya [424]

The measures of the angles of a triangle add to 180.

45 + 45 + 90 = 180
The measures of these three angles do add to 180, ,so there is at least one triangle with these angle measures.
Using AA triangle similarity, any triangle with the same angle measures will be similar.

From the figure you already see two triangles with angles 45-45-90. There is an infinite number of triangles with those angle measures.

5. Carla babysits and tutors to make extra money. She babysits for $5 an hour and tutors for $10 an hour.

HACTEHA [7]

Carla can babysit for 5 hours and tutor for 7 hours or babysit for 8 hours and tutor for 5.5 hours

<h3>How to graph the inequality?</h3>

Let x represents hours babysitting and y represents hours tutoring

So, we have:

Earnings = Rate of babysitting * x + Rate of tutoring* y

This gives

Earnings = 5x + 10y

He wants to earn at least $95.

This means that:

5x + 10y ≥ 95

See attachment for the graph of the inequality

From the attached graph, two possible solutions are: (5, 7) and (8, 5.5)

This means that Carla can babysit for 5 hours and tutor for 7 hours or babysit for 8 hours and tutor for 5.5 hours
