Answer:

\sqrt{135}

Step-by-step explanation:

pythagorean theorum = a suqared plus b squared equals c squared. a= 3 and c = 12 so b is unknown in this case. 12 squared is 144 and then you subtract 3 squared which is 9 which is 135 so idk radical form but the answer of the equation is the square root of 135 which is approximately 11.619.

What is the area of the figure:
Leni [432]
A <span>45 45 90 triangle
so a = b
 a^2 + b^2 = </span>c^2<span>
 a^2 + a^2 </span>= c^2<span>
 2a^2 </span>= c^2<span>
 2a^2 </span>= 24^2
<span> 2a^2 = 576
   a^2 = 288
       a = 12</span>√2
 b = a = 12√2
<span>
Area of triangle:
= 1/2 (</span>12√2)(12√2)
<span>= 1/2(288)
= 144

answer
Area = 144 ft^2

A salad recipe calls for 1 3/4 cups of chopped tomatoes. The recipe calls for 4 1/7 times as many cups of lettuce as tomatoes. H
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Hello! To find the amount of lettuce needed for the recipe, all you have to do is multiply 1 3/4 by 4 1/7. It would be best to change the numbers into improper fractions. 1 3/4 is 7/4 and 4 1/7 is 29/7. 7/4 * 29/7 is 203/28 or 7 1/4 in simplest form. You need 7 1/4 cups of lettuce for the salad recipe. The answer is C.

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint. (Hint: Let (w.y) be the unknown
Reil [10]

Answer:

<h2><em>(3,6)</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two coordinates (x₁,x₂) and (y₁,y₂), their midpoint (w,y) is expressed as:

M(X,Y) = (\dfrac{x_1+w}{2},  \dfrac{y_1+y}{2})

From the question, we are given the midpoint (X,Y) to be (2,2) and one endpoint as (1, -2) and we are to find the other end point expressed as (w,y). From the coordinates given, i can be seen that X = 2, Y =2, x₁ = 1 and y₁ = -2

Substituting the given end points into the given formula to get the other end points, we will have;

X = \dfrac{x_1+w}{2} \\2 =  \dfrac{1+w}{2} \\cross\ multiply\\4 = 1+w\\w = 4-1\\w = 3

Similarly;

Y = \dfrac{y_1+y}{2} \\2 =  \dfrac{-2+y}{2} \\cross\ multiply\\4 = -2+y\\y = 4+2\\y = 6

<em>Hence the other endpoint (w, y) is (3,6)</em>
