No, the sum of the areas of two smaller squares is not equal to the

area of a large square

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem let us do these steps

1. Find the area of the larger square

2. Find the area of the two smaller squares

3. Add the areas of the two smaller squares

4. Compare between the sum of the areas of the 2 smaller squares

   and the area of the larger square

The area of a square is s²

The length of the side of the larger square is 8 feet

∵ s = 8 feet

∴ Area of the larger square = (8)² = 64 feet²

The lengths of the sides of the smaller squares are 5 feet and 3 feet

∵ s = 5 feet

∴ The area of one of the smaller square = (5)² = 25 feet²

∵ s = 3 feet

∴ The area of the other smaller square = (3)² = 9 feet²

The sum of the areas of the two smaller squares = 25 + 9 = 34 feet²

∵ The area of the larger square is 64 feet²

∵ The sum of the areas of the two smaller squares is 34 feet²

∵ 64 ≠ 34

∴ The sum of the areas of two smaller squares is not equal to the

   area of a large square

<em>No, the sum of the areas of two smaller squares is not equal to the</em>

<em>area of a large square</em>

Find the volume of a cube with side length of 7 in.
anastassius [24]

Answer: 343 in³

Explanation: In this problem, we're asked to find the volume of a cube.

It's important to understand that a cube is a type of rectangular prism and the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is shown below.

<em>Volume = length × width × height</em>

In a cube however, the length, width, and height are all the same. So we can use the formula side × side × side instead.

So the formula for the volume of a cube is side × side × side or s³.

So to find the volume of the given cube, since each side has a length of 7 inches, we can plug this information into the formula to get (7 in.)³ or (7 in.)(7 in.)(7 in).

7 x 7 is 49 and 49 x 7 is 343.

So we have 343 in³.

So the volume of the given cube is 343 in³.

Which of the following is NOT true of a perpendicular bisector?
kodGreya [7K]

To construct a perpendicular bisector, we have to draw two arcs using each of the endpoints as centers

<h3>What is a perpendicular bisector?</h3>

A perpendicular bisector is said to be a line that intersects the segment of another line perpendicularly and also divides it into two equal parts.

The properties of a perpendicular bisector include:

  • It divides a line segment into two equal parts
  • It makes right angles with the line segment.
  • Points in the perpendicular bisector are equal from the line of the segment.

Hence, all the mentioned properties are correct except that to construct it, we have to draw two arcs using each of the endpoints as centers.

If f(x) = 2x – 1 and g(x) = ^ – 2, find [g ◦ f](x).
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

<em>    The value of [g ◦ f](x) = 4x^{2} -4x-1</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

    If f(x) = 2x - 1

    g(x)  = x^{2} -2

    we need to find the value of [g ◦ f](x).

    which means that g(f(x))

    g(f(x)) = (2x-1)^{2} -2

    g(f(x)) = 4x^{2} -4x+1 -2

    g(f(x)) = 4x^{2} -4x-1

<em>     The value of [g ◦ f](x) = 4x^{2} -4x-1</em>
