Answer:
Not a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
We can figure out if it is a right triangle or not by using the pythagorean theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
In this case a and b are 16 and 18
In order for it to be a right triangle, c has to equal 34, in this problem.
16^2 + 18^2 = c^2
= 580^2
=
= 24.0832
Since 24.0832 does not equal 34, this is not a right triangle
Answer:
9/40
Step-by-step explanation:
Captain Jessica shoots first. This means her ship has not already been hit, which means she has a 2/5 chance of hitting the pirate ship. This also means she has a 1-2/5 = 3/5 chance of missing the pirate ship.
Since Captain Jessica misses, dread pirate Ishaan has a 3/8 chance of hitting the captain's ship. This means he has a
3/5(3/8) = 9/40 chance of the captain missing the pirate and the pirate hitting the captain.
