Answer:

70 yd.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three streets at the intersection form a right triangle.

For a right triangle, the length of the longest side (called hypothenuse) is given by Pythagorean's theorem:

h=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}

where

x is the length of the 1st side

y is the length of the 2nd side

h is the length of the hypothenuse

Here we want to find the hypothenuse.

We have:

x = 42 yd (length of the 1st side)

y = 56 yd (length of the 2nd side)

Substituting, we find h:

h=\sqrt{42^2+56^2}=70 yd

Answer:

5 = 5

5 < 6

7 > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The two slashes is the equal sign, comparing two numbers that are of the same value. The sign below that means "less than," and 5 is less than 6. The sign below the "less than" sign is the "greater than" sign, and in the given example, 7 is GREATER THAN 6.

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

20cos(39) or  15.543 (3 d.p.)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Use SOHCAHTOA
  • You want to find A and have an angle of 36° and H
  • So use CAH
  • cos(39) = x / 20
  • x = 20cos(39)

How do you find the scale factor of two triangles, 0.3 and 2.4?
bagirrra123 [75]
Divide the larger one by the smaller one. 2.4 divided by 0.3 gives you 8. That means the scale factor is 8, or the larger triangle is 8 times larger than the smaller. We can prove this by multiplying 0.3 by 8 and getting 2.4
