We have been given that the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to 1.2 cm and the interior angles are 60 degrees, 30 degrees, and 90 degrees.

We know that hypotenuse corresponds to 90 degrees angles.

We also know that the hypotenuse is equal to twice the length of the shorter leg and shorter leg is the opposite side to 30 degree angle.  

To find the length of shorter leg, we will divide length of hypotenuse by 2.

\text{Side corresponding to 30 degree angle}=\frac{1.2\text{ cm}}{2}

\text{Side corresponding to 30 degree angle}=0.6\text{ cm}

Therefore, length of shorter leg is 0.6 cm.

We know that the longer leg, which is across from the 60 degree angle, is equal to multiplying the shorter leg by \sqrt{3}.

\text{Side corresponding to 60 degree angle}=0.6\text{ cm}\times \sqrt{3}

\text{Side corresponding to 60 degree angle}=1.039230\text{ cm}

\text{Side corresponding to 60 degree angle}\approx 1.04\text{ cm}

Therefore, length of longer leg is approximately 01.04 cm.

Find the average rate of change for f(x) = x2 − 3x − 10 from x = 4 to x = 6. A) 5 Reactivate B) 7 C) 9 Reactivate D) 11
White raven [17]

Answer:Rate of change is 7

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the average rate of change for f(x)=x^2-3x-10 from x = 4 to x = 6

The formula used to find average rate of change is:

Rate\,\,of\,\,change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Where b = 6 and x = 4

Finding f(6):

f(x)=x^2-3x-10\\f(6)=(6)^2-3(6)-10\\f(6)=36-18-10\\f(6)=36-28\\f(6)=8

Finding f(4):

f(x)=x^2-3x-10\\f(4)=(4)^2-3(4)-10\\f(4)=16-12-10\\f(4)=16-22\\f(4)=-6

Now Putting values:

Rate\,\,of\,\,change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Rate\,\,of\,\,change=\frac{8-(-6)}{6-4}\\Rate\,\,of\,\,change=\frac{8+6}{2}\\Rate\,\,of\,\,change=\frac{14}{2}\\Rate\,\,of\,\,change=7

So, Rate of change is 7

Option B is correct.

A car is 200 km from its destination after an hour and 80 km from its destination after 3 hour
Pani-rosa [81]

200 - 80 is equal to 120. So the car traveled 120 km in 3 hours. It travels at an average of 120/3 = 40 km/hr, and will reach its destination in 2 hours.

when camping alone , mr adam uses all of the water in 12 days, then when mrs adams and mr adams camp together they use all of th
professor190 [17]

Using the together rate, it is found that if Mrs Adams camps alone, she will use all the water in 24 hours.

<h3>What is the together rate?</h3>

The together rate is the sum of each separate rate.

In this problem, the rates are:

  • Together: 1/8.
  • Mr Adam: 1/12.
  • Mrs Adams: 1/x.

Hence:

\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{8}

\frac{x + 12}{12x} = \frac{1}{8}

12x = 8x + 96

4x = 96

x = \frac{96}{4}

x = 24

If Mrs Adams camps alone, she will use all the water in 24 hours.

The area of Terry's room at the old house was 96 ft.2. The area of Terry's room at the new house is 108 ft.2
Finger [1]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to calculate the change in the area of Terry's room this is

108 ft2 - 96 ft2 = 12 ft2

Then we use a direct proportion in order to find the percentage

96 ft2 ----- 100%

12 ft2 ----- p?

Solvin for p we have that

p=\frac{12\times 100}{96}

p=12.5
