Use a^2+b^2=c^2.
so u might have two answer one if u plug 17 and 12 as your a and b and solve for c
second is when you plug 12 as a and 17 as 17 qnd solve for b.
hope this helped
Good morning from Canada!
What we know:
-quire=25 sheets
-ream=100 sheets
So, we are looking for how many quires can fit into a ream. All we have to do is divide the number of sheets in a ream (100) by the number of sheets in a quire (25) because dividing allows us to see how many times a specific number can go into another number, which is what we are looking for. (How many quires are in a ream).
100/25=4
Therefore 4 quires can fit into a ream.
Hope this helps!
The tangent function gives the ratio of vertical to horizontal distance in this case.
.. vertical distance = (horizontal distance)*tan(angle of depression)
.. = (40 m)*tan(50°)
.. vertical distance ≈ 47.7 m
