Answer:

Option C) Any three numbers, each of which is squared is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

By using Pythagorean Theorem:

Pythagorean theorem is also called as Pythagoras' theorem. It is a fundamental relation among the three sides of a right triangle.

It states that the length of the square of hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of the lengths of the squares of the opposite side and adjacent side.

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

where c is the length of the hypotenuse side and a and b are the lengths of the opposite and adjacent sides of triangle's.

Therefore Option C) Any three numbers, each of which is squared is correct

If there is a 10% chance of sun tomorrow and a 20% chance of wind and no sun, what is the probability that it is windy, given th

professor190 [17]

Since there are two events happening simultaneously (windy and no sun), we can apply the concept of conditional probability here. P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B) where it means that given B is happening, the probability that A is happening as well is the ratio of the chance for A and B to happen simultaneously over the chance of B to happen. For our case, this can be interpreted as P(A|B): it is the probability that it is windy (A) GIVEN that there is no sun (B) P(A∩B) : chance of wind and no sun P(B) : chance that there is no sun tomorrow The chance of P(A∩B) is already given as 20% or 0.20. Since there is 10% or 0.10 chance of sun, then chances of having no sun tomorrow is (1-0.10) = 0.90. Thus, we have P(A|B) = 0.2/0.9 ≈ 0.22 or 22%. So, answer is B: 22%<span>.</span>
