First find the decimal equivalent of square root 3: SQRT(3) = 1.732 ( roughly)
 
If the base and height were each 3, then the hypotenuse would need to be:

3^2 + 3^2 = C^2
9 + 9 = C^2
18 = C^2
C = SQRT(18) = 4.24

This is larger than sqrt(3), so this cannot be a right triangle.


If one leg was 3 and the other leg was sqrt(3) then the hypotenuse would be:
3^2 + 1.73^2 = C^2
9 + 3 = C^2
12 = C^2
C = SQRT(12) = 3.46

This is larger than 3, this cannot be a right triangle.

The answer is b) no.

Figure A has a radius of 2 inches. It is dilated by a scale factor of 4 to form figure B. What is the radius of figure B?
snow_lady [41]
Given that figure A with radius of 2 inches is dilated to form figure B, the radius of B will be given by:
Radius B=(radius A)×(scale factor)
but
scale factor=4
thus
Radius of B will be:
2×4
=8 inches

Rewrite the following statement in the form ∀x ______, if _______ then _______ (where each of the second two blanks are senten
Bumek [7]

Answer:

"Vx: if x is a valid argument with true premises then x has a true conclusion"

In a symbol form

Vx ( P(x) ⇒ 2(x) )

Step-by-step explanation:

The Following statement in the form  âˆ€x ______, if _______ then _______ is a valid argument and this because any valid argument with "true premises" has a "true conclusion" as well

we will rewrite this statement in a universal condition statement form

assume x is a valid argument with true premises

then the following holds true

p(x) : x is a valid argument with true premises

q(x) : x has true conclusion

applying universal conditional statement

"Vx, if x is a valid argument with true premises then x has a true conclusion"

In a symbol form

Vx ( P(x) ⇒ 2(x) )

Which expression is a difference of squares with a factor of 5x − 8?
Olegator [25]

Answer:

25x^2-64

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the formula for the difference of squares is a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b). The formula implies that if (5x - 8) is a factor, then (5x + 8) is the other factor. We can use our formula to find which one is our difference of squares:

(5x-8)(5x+8)=(5x)^2-8^2

(5x-8)(5x+8)=5^2x^2-64

(5x-8)(5x+8)=25x^2-64

We can conclude that the correct answer is 25x^2-64.
