The legs of a isosceles right triangle both measure 10 inches find the length of the hypotenuse

Mathematics
1 answer:
Artist 52 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Hypotenuse = 14.1421 inches (rounded off to four decimal values)

Step-by-step explanation:

The legs of an isosceles triangle both measure 10 inches

Since the triangle is a right triangle,

We apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height of the hypotenuse

a² + b² = c²

a = 10 inches, b = 10 inches and (c) is the hypotenuse whose value we don't know.

So; 10² + 10² = c²

c² = 100 + 100

c² = 200

c = \sqrt{200} = 14.1421356237 inches

The hypotenuse is 14.1421 inches (answer rounded off to four decimal values)

1) Find the measure of ∠θ. Round to one decimal place.
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = θ

Opposite side = 11.9

Adjacent side = 10

Applying the trigonometric ratio, TOA, we have:

Tan θ = opp/adj

Tan θ = 11.9/10

θ = tan^{-1}(11.9/10)

θ = 49.9584509° ≈ 50.0° (to one d.p)

Apply pythagorean theorem to find AB:

Thus:

AB = √(11.9² + 10²)

AB = √241.61

AB ≈ 15.5 (to 1 d.p)

A sporting goods store is offering a 10% discount on in-line skates that normally cost $110.99. How much will the in-line skates
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

$90.90

Step-by-step explanation:

The item normally costs $110.99. If the sporting goods store is offering a 10% discount, it means that the price including the discount will be:

$110.99 x 0.90 = $99.891.

the in-line skates cost with the discount $99.89, not including taxes.

the sum of two numbers is 18. twice the first number increased by three times the second number equals 40. find the numbers
ryzh [129]

Answer:

4 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

:the sum of two numbers is 18" can be written as

 x + y = 18               let x represent the first number, and y the second

"twice the first number increased by three times the second number equals 40" can be written as

2x + 3y = 40

Now solve this system. Using elimination will probably be the easier method...

1.   x +  y = 18

2.  2x + 3y = 40

Multiply equation 1 by -2 so the x variable will be the opposite of the x variable on equation 2.

1.  -2x - 2y = -36

2.  2x  + 3y = 40

Now add the equations together, cancelling out 'x'

y  = 4     ( 2x + (-2x) = 0, so 'x' is gone, 3y + (-2y) = y, 40 + (-36) = 4)

Since y = 4, plug that into either equation 1 or 2 and solve for x

1.  x + 4 = 18     (y becomes 4)

     x = 14        (subtract 4 on both sides to isolate 'x')
