You use the Pythagorean theorem .

Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

<u>Solve for x:</u>

Take out exponent.

12^2 + x^2 = 20^2

Subtract 144 on both sides to get the variable alone.

144 + x = 400

-144         -144

You get the solution as 256. But you know it's bigger than the numbers given. So find the square root of 256.

x = 256

Which leaves you with:

x = 16

<u>Check:</u>

12^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

144 + 256 = 400

400 = 400

<u>Key:</u>

a = First shortest side (shorter side with the number smaller than side b and c)

b = Second shortest side (the number that is between side a's and c's number)

c = Third shortest side (longer side with the number larger than side a and b)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two triangles are similar, you can use proportions to solve for the value of x

\frac{x}{12}  = \frac{4}{3}

Now, just multiply 4 and 12.

4 * 12 = 48

Then divide that by 3.

48 / 3 = 16

Therefore, x = 16.

What area is this composite figure??
klemol [59]

This composite figure consists of a right triangle and semicircle

The area of a triangle is: 1/2(bh)

The area of a semicircle is 1/2(pi)(r²)

Plug in the values:


1/2( 12)(8)

=48


1/2(3.14)(4²)

=25.12


25.12+48=73.12


Hope this helped :)

Answer:

1. The domain for the number of fruit cups is 0 minimum and 20 maximum.

   [0 < x < 20].

2. [10 < y < 70]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The domain is 0 to 20 because there are 20 people total who will each have a fruit cup

2. The range is $10 to $70 because the minimum price is $10 without any fruit cups and $70 when there are 20 fruit cups.

An acute angle measures less than π/2 but greater than 0
Ivenika [448]
If you're looking for an angle in between those, basically you have to choose an angle between 0 and 90°. any angle should work (such as 15°, 45°, 60°, 75°, etc.)
