How many right angles can be in an obtuse triangle?

1 answer:

STatiana [176]3 years ago

6 0

By definition, an obtuse triangle has an obtuse angle (angle greater than 90 degrees). The 3 angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees. Since one of our angles is greater than 90 degrees, the other 2 have to add up to less than 90 degrees, so there can be NO RIGHT ANGLES.

Can someone help me?

qaws [65]

Answer:

Your answer is C. 1/2 (16*6) = 48 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a triangle is A = b*h/2 (base times height divided by half)

First you need to multiply the base (6) by the height (16).

6*16 is 96.

Now you divide 96 by 2 or cut it in half.

96/2 (or cut in half) is 48.

Therefore your answer is C

A media poll of 500 air travelers surveyed in national airports found that 370 favor tighter security procedures in boarding pla

serg [7]

Answer:

92% Confidence interval: (0.7078,0.7722)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 500

Number of travelers who favor tight security, x = 370

$\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{370}{500} = 0.74$

92% Confidence interval:

$\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.08} = \pm 1.645$

Putting the values, we get:

$0.74\pm 1.645(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.74(1-0.74)}{500}}) = 0.74\pm 0.0322\\\\=(0.7078,0.7722)$
