Answer:

Part A) BD = 6.5 cm

Part B) see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure

Part A) Find the length of BD

ΔDAB is a right triangle at A,  AB is 3.3cm ,  DA is 5.6cm

So, DB is the hypotenuse

Using Pythagorean equation:

DB = √(AD² + AB²) = √(3.3² + 5.6²) = √42.25 = 6.5 cm

===================================================

Part B) Show that angle BCD is 90°​

Given: CD is 5.2cm , BC is 3.9cm  and DB = 6.5 cm

So, CD² = 5.2² = 27.04

BC² = 3.9² = 15.21

DB² = 6.5² = 42.25

So, CD² + BC² = 27.04 + 15.21 = 42.25 = DB²

So, DB represent a hypotenuse at ΔBCD

So, the apposite angle of BD is a right angle

So, ∠BCD = 90°

Mary and Mike went to the store to buy colored pencils for their science class.mike bought a 12-pack for 1.69,and Mary bought a
sweet-ann [11.9K]

12-pack for 1.69 is a better buy

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, Mike bought a 12-pack for 1.69 and Mary bought a 24-pack for 3.18

We have to find which is the better buy

First we have to find the unit rate

Unit rate is cost of 1 pack

<em><u>Mike bought a 12-pack for 1.69</u></em>

Therefore,

Cost of 12 pack = 1.69

Cost of 1 pack is found by dividing 1.69 by 12

cost\ of\ 1\ pack = \frac{1.69}{12} = 0.14083

Thus unit rate of Mike is 0.14083 dollar per pack

<em><u>Mary bought a 24-pack for 3.18</u></em>

Cost of 24 pack = 3.18

Cost of 1 pack is found by dividing 3.18 by 24

cost\ of\ 1\ pack = \frac{3.18}{24} = 0.1325

Thus unit rate of Mary is 0.1325 dollars

<em><u>On comparing both the unit rate</u></em>

0.14083>0.1325

Thus unit rate of Mike is larger

Thus, 12-pack for 1.69 is a better buy

Which of the sets of three dimensions could make a right triangle ​
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

B) 6, 8, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

All right triangles will follow the following theorem (Pythagorean theorem):

a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are two legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse. Out of all answer choices, only B) 6, 8, 10 follow this theorem.
