Answer:

The diagonal of a non-regulation tennis court = 25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Pythagorean theorem</u>

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Height²

The  tennis court  is like a rectangle.

We can consider the court as made of two right angled triangle

<u>To find the length of diagonal of court</u>

Here base = 15 feet and height = 20 feet

Diagonal or hypotenuse can be written as,

Diagonal ² = Base² + Height²

 = 15² + 20²

 = 225 + 400

 = 625

Diagonal = √625 = 25 feet

Therefore  the diagonal of a non-regulation tennis court = 25 feet

Answer:

25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically that non-regulation tennis court is a rectangle. You want to know the length of the diagonal. If you draw it on paper, you'll see that this then become 2 triangles... of which you have 2 sides, and are seeking the hypotenuse.  So....

H² = A² + B²

H² = 20² + 15² = 400 + 225 = 625

H = 25 feet.

Solve the following questions-
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

  2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the ratio as a pure number, it must be expressed as the quotient of two values that have the same units. For the purpose here, it is convenient to convert both values to units of seconds.

__

<h3>units conversion</h3>

The conversion factor between minutes and seconds is ...

  1 minute = 60 seconds

Multiplying this equation by 3 gives ...

  3 minutes = 180 seconds

__

<h3>ratio of interest</h3>

Then the desired ratio is ...

  (72 seconds)/(3 minutes) = (72 seconds)/(180 seconds) = 72/180

  = (36×2)/(36×5)

  = 2/5

The ratio in its simplest form is 2/5.

Use this formula a2 − b2 = (a + b)(a − b)

<span>(x+1)^2-(x-1)^2  in this case, a = x+1, b = x-1</span>

<span>= [(x+1) + (x-1)] *  [(x+1) – (x-1)]</span>

=(x +1 + x – 1) *(x +1 – x +1)

= 2x * 2
