Grade 8- The Pythagorean Theorem

1 answer:

8 0

1) pythagorean theorem = a2 + b2 = c2
SO:
10^2 + 6^2 = c2
100 + 36 = c2
136 = c2
Diagonal should equal about 11.66 meters

2) pythagorean theorem = a2 + b2 = c2
SO:12.7^2 + 8.9^2 = c2
161.29 + 79.21 = c2
240.5 = c2
Elevation should equal about 15.1 degrees

Point R divides in the ratio 1 : 3. If the x-coordinate of R is -1 and the x-coordinate of P is -3, what is the x-coordinate of

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

C. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Point R divides the line segment PQ internally. The x-coordinate of the point which divides the line segment in ration m:n internally can be calculated as:

$x=(\frac{mx_{2}+nx_{1}}{m+n} )$

Here, x1 is the x-coordinate of 1st point, x2 is the x-coordinate of 2nd point, x is the x-coordinate of point dividing the segment. We have all the values except x2. Using the given values in above formula, we get:

$-1=\frac{x_{2}+3(-3) }{1+3} \\ \\-4=x_{2}-9\\\\ 5=x_{2}$

Thus the x-coordinate of point Q will be 5

The x-coordinate of Q is 5.

If 5/9 of a tank can be filled in 2 minutes, how many minutes will it take to fill the whole tank ? A) 2.4 minutes B) 2.8 minute

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as a ratio with #parts of tank on top and #minutes on the bottom and then solve it as a proportion with x being the unknown number of minutes in the second ratio.

$\frac{\frac{5}{9} }{2}=\frac{1}{x}$
