7.79cm It is an equilateral triangle so it has 3 equal sides. That means each side is 9cm. <span>
Now draw a line from the top of the equilateral triangle to the base, and dividing it into two. You will have made two smaller triangles, with sides 9, 4.5, and h (the one you want to find).
A line drawn from the apex of an equilateral triangle to the midpoint of the base is perpendicular to the base, so you can use Pythagoras' Theorem!
4.5^2 + h^2 = 9^2
h = sqrt(9^2 - 4.5^2)
Therefore, the height is 7.79cm (2 decimal places)</span><span>

Let
x----------------> <span>feet of yarn of Becky
y----------------> </span><span>feet of yarn of James
we know that
4 2/8------> 4 1/4--------> (4*4+1)/4-----> 17/4
1 5/8------> (1*8+5)/8-----> 13/5
x+y=4 2/8-------> x+y=17/4----> equation 1
x=1 5/8--------> x=13/5------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
[13/5]+y=17/4------> y=(17/4)-(13/5)----> y=[5*17-4*13]/20
y=(85-52)/20-----> y=33/20----> y=1.65-----> y=1 65/100----> y=1 13/20
the answer is
</span><span>james have 1 13/20 ft of yarn</span>
5÷3=length
5 is the length of the banner and you need to know the length. You already know that the length is 1/3 of the width (5).

Answer:
5.29
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagorean theorem is used
We will call AB x
x^2 + 6^2 = 8^2
x^2 + 36 = 64
x^2 = 28
x = 5.2915026
<u>x = 5.26</u>
