On the packaging for a triangular sail, the edge measurements for the sail are listed as 7 ft × 15 ft × 17 ft. Without unfurling

the sail, you want to determine if the sail forms a right triangle, an acute triangle, or an obtuse triangle. What type of triangle is being depicted from the measurements?

Answer:

Shape of Triangular sail is Obtuse Angled Triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is obtuse since the sum of the squares of 2 sides are greater than the square of the third side. (Converse Pythagorean theorem) Hope this helps!

Given: Length of sides of triangular sail = 7 ft , 15 ft , 7 ft

To find: Shape of Sail .i.e., shape of triangle

We use a result which states that

if a , b  , c are sides of triangle where c is greater then a & b.

now, if c² < a² + b² then triangle is Acute angled

if c² = a² + b² then triangle is Right angled

if c² > a² + b² then triangle is Obtuse angled

here a = 7 , b = 7 &  c = 15

c² = 15² = 225

a² + b² = 7² + 7² = 49 + 49 = 98

since, c² > a² + b²

⇒ Triangle must be Obtuse Angled.

Therefore, Shape of Triangular sail is Obtuse Angled Triangle.

Help me please!

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Well you can get rid of c and d since 9^2 = 81. so 74 is less than 81 so it's definitely less than 9. Now, we know it's between 8 and 9. try multiplying 8.5 x 8.5 = 72.25. So our ranges are

A) 64 - 72.25

B) 72.25 - 81.

74 falls between 72.25 - 81. So it'll be B

Suppose we take the interval [−5,7] and divide it into 4 equal subintervals. Find the width Δn of each subinterval. Δn = If we n
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

x_0=-5\\x_1=-2\\x_2=1\\x_3=4\\x_4=7

Δn=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, if we need to divide the interval (a,b) in n equal subinterval, then we need divide the distance (d) between the endpoints of the interval and divide it by n. Then the width Δn of each subinterval is d/n.

We have the interval [-5,7]. The distance between the endpoints of the interval is

d=7-(-5)=12.

Now, we divide d by 4 and obtain \frac{d}{4}=\frac{12}{4}=3

Then, Δn=3.

Now, to find the endpoints of each sub-interval, we add 3 from the left end of the interval.

-5=x_0\\x_0+3=-5+3=-2=x_1\\x_1+3=1=x_2\\x_2+3=4=x_3\\x_3+3=7=x_4

So,

x_0=-5\\x_1=-2\\x_2=1\\x_3=4\\x_4=7
