Hey there! :)

Answer:

C. BC = 39 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for BC. Let BC = c, AB = a, and AC = b.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 15² + 36²

Square and simplify:

c² = 225 + 1296

c² = 1521

c = √1521

c = 39 units.

Therefore:

BC = 39 units.

Answer:

C. 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length

15² + 36² = C²      Simplify

225 + 1296 = C²   Add

1521 = C²              Take the square root of both sides

39 = C

This rectangular patio is tiled using 50 cm by 50 cm square tiles. How many tiles are used?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

60 tiles are used

Step-by-step explanation:

1m equals 100 cm.

5m equals 500

3m equals 300

the whole thing is 500 by 300 which when you multiply gives you

150,000. When you multiple 50 by 50 it gives you 2,500. So when you divide 150,000 by 2,500 it gives you a total of 60 tiles. HOPE THIS HELPS

2. A rectangle has a perimeter of 100. Its
slava [35]

Answer:

Option H

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle= 2(length) +2(width)

100= 2(5a -22) +2[½(a +1)]

Expand:

100= 2(5a) +2(-22) +a +1

100= 10a -44 +a +1

Simplify:

100= 11a -43

+43 on both sides:

11a= 100 +43

11a= 143

Divide both sides by 11:

a= 143 ÷11

a= 13

Thus, option H is correct.

Which statements are true about these lines? Select three options.
shepuryov [24]
RS is perpendicular to MN and PQ.


We can use the slopes of these lines to determine the answer.
Slope is given by the formula
m=.

Using the coordinates for M and N, we have:
m=.

Since PQ is parallel to MN, its slope will be as well, since parallel lines have the same slope.

Using the coordinates for points T and V in the slope formula, we have
m=.

This is not parallel to MN or PQ, since the slopes are not the same.
We can also say that it is not perpendicular to these lines; perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals (they are opposite signs and are flipped). This is not true of TV either.

Using the coordinates for R and S in the slope formula, we have
m=. Comparing this to the slope of RS, it is flipped and the sign is opposite; they are negative reciprocals, so they are perpendicular.

1. find the area of the two triangles, including the shaded section. the formula for this is a=1/2bh

the height and base are both 24 inches. this is because you add the 10 from the side of the square to the 14 that is given

so:

a=1/2(24)(24)
a=(12)(24)
a=288 sq. inches

since there are two triangles, you would multiply the area by 2

a=2(288)
a=576 sq. inches

now, since you only need the unshaded section, you have to take away the shaded section, which is a square. to do this, you must calculate the area of the square and take it away from the area of both triangles.

a=576-(lw)
a=576- (10)(10)
a=576-100
a=476 sq. inches

that is your answer
