Can someone please help me with this?

Mathematics
1 answer:
vivado [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see it is a right angled triangle so

hypotenuse (h) = 14 . 7 km

perpendicular (p) = 11.9 km

base (b) = x

Now by using Pythagoras theorem

b^{2} = h^{2} - p ^{2}

b^{2} = 14.7^{2} - 11.9^{2}

b^{2} = 216.09 - 141.61

b^{2} = 74.48\\b = \sqrt{74.48} \\b = 8.63 km

Hope  it was helpful.:)

On the attached drawing what is the name for Angle LHJ? Obtuse, acute, complementary or right?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: Right (Last option)

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the figure, the parallel lines AD and GJ are intersected  by two lines.

The line EL intersects the parallel lines and there are two angles that are formed by this intersections which are located on the exterior of AD and GJ, but  on opposite sides of EL, (these angles are called "Alternate exterior angles" and they are congruent), which are:

 ∠LHJ and ∠EBA

You can observe that the angle ∠EBA is indicated with a square. This means that the measure of that angle is 90° (Right angle).

Therefore, if ∠EBA=90°, then ∠LHJ =90°

George is now 8 years older than harry, find their present age if in 5 years george will be twice as harry was 2 years ago
umka21 [38]

The present age of George is 25 years and the present age of Harry is 17 years

For given question,

Let x be the age of George and y be the age of Harry.

George is now 8 years older than harry.

So, we get an equation,

x = y + 8                      ...................(1)

After 5 years the age of George will be x + 5 and the age of Harry will be    y + 5

Two years ago the age of Harry = y - 2

In 5 years George will be twice as Harry was 2 years ago.

So we get an equation,

x + 5 = 2(y - 2)                ..............(2)

Substitute the value of x in equation (2)

⇒ x + 5 = 2(y - 2)  

⇒ y + 8 + 5 = 2y - 4

⇒ y + 13 = 2y - 4

⇒ y = 17

Substitute the above value of y in equation (1)

⇒ x = 17 + 8

⇒ x = 25

Therefore, the present age of George is 25 years and the present age of Harry is 17 years

If you save one penny on january 1 two pennies on january 2 and three on january 3 and continue this pattern for a year. How man
Lunna [17]
The formula you need is: S = (n/2) (2a1 + (n - 1) x d)
so then you plug in the numbers:
S = (365/2) (2 x 1 + (365 - 1) x 1)
then combine like terms:
S = 66795 pennies
A dollar is 100 pennies. Therefore, at the end of the year, the total savings is $667.95.
