14 would probably be the answer idk
You had the right idea using the Pythagorean theorem to solve for b.
Problem is for that triangle to work, the 5 and the 2√2 would have to switch places. The length of a leg cannot be larger than the length of the hypotenuse for it to truly be a right triangle.
Pythagorean theorem only works for the right triangles. Only way to "solve this problem would be to bring in complex numbers.
5² + b² = (2√2)²
25 + b² = 2²(√2)²
25 + b² = 4(2)
25 + b² = 8
b² = 8 - 25
b² = - 17
b = √-17
b= (√17i)
Then the problem with THIS is a measurement/distance cannot be negative... which goes against exactly what that complex number i is.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well we can find how far he travels in 55 seconds if he swims at constant speed of 5/3 meters.
5/3 times 55 = approx. 91.66 meters
Therefore Xavier will not quality for the national Swim Meet because he didn't swim 100 meters in 55 seconds
The height is 5 m. The area of a trapezoid is (b1+b2/2)h
Answer:
area = 138 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
radius of large circle = 12 m
radius of small circle = 10 m
large circle area = πr² = (3.14)(12²) = 452.16 m²
small circle area = πr² = (3.14)(10²) =314 m²
452.16 - 314 = 138.16 m²
