The hypotenuse of a right triangle measures 18 cm and one of its legs measures 12 cm. Find the measure of the other leg. If nece

Serggg [28]

Answer:

16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle, with the hypotenuse = 18, one side = 7, and the other side = x.

Since this is a right triangle, use the pythagorean theorem to find the value for x.

let a = 7 for one side, and let c = 18 for the hypotenuse. And, let c = x for the other side.

The pythagorean theorem is: c^2 = a^2 + b^2.

18^2 = 7^2 + x^2324 = 49 +x^2

x^2 = 324 - 49 = 275So, x = sqrt(275) = 16.5 cm

Winning the jackpot in a particular lottery requires that you select the correct four numbers between 1 and 42 and, in a separa

NARA [144]

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{3,357,900}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There are

$C^{42}_4=\dfrac{42!}{4!(42-4)!}=\dfrac{42!}{4!\cdot 38!}=\dfrac{38!\cdot 39\cdot 40\cdot 41\cdot 42}{2\cdot 3\cdot 4\cdot 38!}=39\cdot 10\cdot 41\cdot 7=111,930$

different ways to select the four numbers between 1 and 42. Only one of this ways is correct (successful to win).

There are 30 different ways select the single number between 1 and 30. Only one of them is correct.

The probability of winning the jackpot is

$\dfrac{1}{111,930}\cdot \dfrac{1}{30}=\dfrac{1}{3,357,900}$
