The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides that measure 7 cm and 24 cm is 25 cm

<u>Solution:</u>

Given a right angled triangle,

The sides measure 7 cm and 24 cm

We have to find the length of hypotenuse

For a right angled triangle, by Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the lengths of other two sides of the right-angled triangle.

From above definition we get,

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Where, "c" is the length of hypotenuse

"a" is the length of one side of triangle

"b" is the length of other side of triangle

Here, a = 7 and b = 24 and c = ?

c^2 = 7^2 + 24^2\\\\c^2 = 49 + 576 = 625

Taking square root on both sides,

c = \sqrt{625}\\\\c = 25

Hence the length of hypotenuse is 25 cm

What is 55 rounded by 2 of the nearest hundred
Lelu [443]
It would be 100. Because let's say you had to round 25 to the nearest 10 it would be 30 because everything ending with 5 (example: 5 to nearest 10 would go to 10 65 to the nearest ten would go to 70) but anything lower then 5 goes to the lower number.

What is the volume of a cylinder, in cubic centimeters, with a height of 2 centimeters
harina [27]

Answer:

<h2>         V ≈ 628.3 cm³</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cylinder:  V = π×r² × h

diameter = 20 cm  ⇒  r = 10 cm

h = 2 cm

Volume:

V = π×(10)²×2 = 200π cm³ = 628.318.... cm³ ≈ 628.3 cm³
