Answer:
(d) 36 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Use your sense of geometry.
The hypotenuse of a right triangle will never be less than the longest side, and will never be greater than 1.5 times the longest side*.
That means the only reasonable answer choices will be between 30 and 45 feet. There is only one such choice.
The measure is about 36 feet.
__
If you like, you can find a more exact value using the Pythagorean theorem. The distance d of interest is ...
d^2 = 20^2 +30^2 = 1300
d = √1300 = 10√13 ≈ 36.0555 ≈ 36 . . . feet
_____
* The longest hypotenuse will be √2 ≈ 1.4142 times the longest right triangle leg when the two legs are equal length.
208- ( 2* 46)= X
208- 92=2x
x=58
The length is 58cm.

Answer:
x = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
using the sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value
sin60° = 
, then
sin60° = 
= 
= ( cross- multiply )
2x = 3 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 1.5
Answer:
11. 78
12. 4x² - 3x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
11. Sum of n whole numbers = ½(n² + n)
Multiply
½*n² + ½*n
= n²/2 + n/2
To find the sum of the first 12 whole number, substitute 12 for n into the equation.
= 12²/2 + 12/2
= 144/2 + 12/2
= 72 + 6
= 78
12. Area of trapezoid = ½(a + b)*h
Where,
a = 5x - 4
b = 3x + 2
h = x + 1
Area = ½(5x - 4 + 3x + 2)*(x + 1)
Area = ½(8x - 2)*(x + 1)
Area = ½[8x(x + 1) -2(x + 1)]
= ½[8x² + 8x - 2x - 2]
Add like terms
= ½(8x² - 6x - 2)
= ½(8x²) - ½(6x) - ½(2)
= 4x² - 3x - 1
