When subtracting fractions, you need to make sure the denominators are the same. In 2/3 - 1/2, the denominators are different. To make them the same, find the least common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 6

2/3 becomes 4/6

1/2 becomes 3/6

Now subtract the fractions with the common denominator

4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

The answer is 1/6

Hope this helps. Please mark me as Brainliest. Thanks!

Given a right triangle with sides a = 3 , b = 4, and c = 5. Find the missing side c of another right triangle with a = 6 and b =

horsena [70]

c = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find out the missing side of a right triangle by using the Pythagorean theorem.

The Pythagorean theorem is...

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

We can even double check the first problem by plugging in everything into the theorem and solving, everything will come out correct. We can plug in the numbers from the second problem into the theorem and find c, also please note that the hypotenuse of a triangle will always be c. It doesn't matter which you put in for a or b, but since the problem gives us which one is a and which one is b, I'll just be plugging it in like that.

$6^2+8^2=c^2$

$36+64=c^2$

$100=c^2$

A lot of people will stop here and think that the answer is 100, but you need to find the square root of 100, since c is squared. The square root of 100 is 10, so...

c = 10
