Answer: Choice B) {3, 5, sqrt(34)}
=====================================
Explanation:
We can only have a right triangle if and only if a^2+b^2 = c^2 is a true equation. The 'c' is the longest side, aka hypotenuse. The legs 'a' and 'b' can be in any order you want.
-----------
For choice A,
a = 2
b = 3
c = sqrt(10)
So,
a^2+b^2 = 2^2+3^2 = 4+9 = 13
but
c^2 = (sqrt(10))^2 = 10
which is not equal to 13 from above. Cross choice A off the list.
-----------
Checking choice B
a = 3
b = 5
c = sqrt(34)
Square each equation
a^2 = 3^2 = 9
b^2 = 5^2 = 25
c^2 = (sqrt(34))^2 = 34
We can see that
a^2+b^2 = 9+25 = 34
which is exactly equal to c^2 above. This confirms the answer.
-----------
Let's check choice C
a = 5, b = 8, c = 12
a^2 = 25, b^2 = 64, c^2 = 144
So,
a^2+b^2 = c^2
25+64 = 144
89 = 144
which is a false equation allowing us to cross choice C off the list.
For every one hour 12 seaguls show up
12 seaguls for every one hour
the answer i think is 12 seaguls per hour
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the upper triangle has a right angle at Island C, we need only use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x:
(10 mi)^2 + (20 mi)^2 = x^2, so that
x^2 = 100 mi^2 + 400 mi^2 = 500 mi^2, which reduces to
x = +10√5 mi
Note that the shortest side (10 mi) is adjacent to a 30 degree angle. Thus, the upper triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle, meaning that the Pythagorean Theorem DOES apply here.

10x⁴ and 6w³
1) We see no the same letters in both expressions, so we will need to include all letters in the final answer. x⁴w³
2) number part
10 = 2*5
6=3*2
We need 2*3*5=30 (we need 2 only one times, because we have 2 only one time in each of the numbers).
3)The least common multiple
2*3*5x⁴w³ = 30x⁴w³
Answer is 30x⁴w³.
Answer:
The equation of the line is y = (-1/2)x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, have to find gradient using the formula above :
(2,4) & (14,-2)
m = (-2-4) / (14-2)
= -6 / 12
= -1/2
Second, using y = mx + b as b is a constant and is a y-intercept. Using any of these 2 coordinates to find the value of b with given gradient :
y = mx + b
Let y=4 & x=2
4 = (-1/2)(2) + b
b = 4 + 1
= 5
Lastly, put the value of gradient and y-intercept into the equation :
y = mx + b
Let m=-1/2 & b=5
y = (-1/2)x + 5
