Given the length of three sides of a triangle, which is a right triangle?

The aides of a right triangle will always satisfy the Pythagorean relationship ...

                   a² + b²=  c²

We can take each of these and try it out:

(1) ... 10² + 24² = 100 + 576  = 676
         √676 = <em>26  Yes</em>.

(2) ... 12² + 18²  =  144 + 324  =  468
           √468  =  21.6, not 20.  <em>No.</em>

(3) ... 15² + 26²  =  225 + 676  =  901
         √901  =  30.017  Awfully close.  As an engineer, I'll buy this one. <em>Yes.</em>

(4) ...  40² + 50²  =  1,600 + 2,500  =  4,100
          √4,100  =  64.03, not 80.<em>  No.</em>

A) you can figure this out by testing each with the Pythagorean Theorem

a^2 +  b^2 =c^2 (c is the biggest side)

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Somebody plays 30 times

L+W = 30, where L and W are number of losses and wins, respectively.

L = 30-W

Net after 30 plays is $6

2W - 1L = 6

2W - (30-W) = 6

3W = 36

W = 12

W = 18

17 wins

Please help me solveeeee

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the only way you can solve this is to assume that <R means PRT in the given ratio. If I am wrong, I don't think the problem can be solved.

Find <T

Let <T = x

and <PRT = 3x

KLMN is a Parallelagram and therefore two adjacent angles are supplementary.

<PRT + <T = 180 degress

3x + x = 180 degrees

4x = 180

x = 45

So <T = 45

<PRT = 3*45 = 135

If RD is perpendicular to PS then <PDR = 90o

Here's the trick.

RD is also Perpendicular to RT

<MRD + <MRT = 90

<MRT = 180 - 90 - <T

<MRT = 180 - 90 - 45

<MRT = 45

Here comes your answer

=================

<MRD + MRT = 90

<MRD + 45 = 90

<MRD = 45

====================

Note: you must ignore everything to do with the diagram. It is not drawn to scale and the letters are not the same as in the question. The only thing you use is that the figure is a ||gm
