Answer:

B - 150 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Obviously the first step is to find the missing measurement. To do this, you use the Pythagorean theorem; a² + b² = c².

In this case, let's label the the missing side A, the height B, and the hypotenuse C.

X² + 15² = 25²

Then you must figure out what 15² and 25².

15² = 225

25² = 625

The next step is to subtract 15² (225) from 25² (625), which will give you the result of X².

625 - 225 = 400. 

Now you know X² = 400, you can find the square root of 400 to give you the length of the triangle.

√400 = 20.

The missing length of the triangle is 20 yards.

Now it's just a matter of finding the area by using the formula;

A = $\frac{bh}{2}$

Or,

(20 × 15) ÷ 2 = 150.

And there's your answer. Don't forget to add the units.

The probability is a ratio of the possible events to the total events. The total is 52 cards, so the denominator is 52. The individual properties of the specific cards are the following:

Any face or number cards is 4/52, because there are 4 cards for each symbol. On the other hand, each symbol like heart, diamond, club or spade would each have a probability of 13/52 (counting numbers 2 to 10, Ace card, and the 3 face cards). Also, there are 26 each of red and black cards. Furthermore, the words 'or' and 'and' are hint words. When you see 'or', you have to add their individual probabilities. If you see the word 'and', you'll have to multiply them. With that said, the solution is as follows:

a.) P = 4/52 + 4/52 + 4/52 = 3/13
b.) P = (13/52 + 13/52 + 4/52)(26/52) = 15/52
c.) P = 13/52
d.) P = 13/52 + 13/52 + 13/52 = 3/4
