Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

I used Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem. As DC and AD is 12 and 5, you would do 12²+5²= c². 12²= 144 and 5²= 25. 144+25= 169. It doesn't end there. Do the square root of 169 ---> √169=13.

1 Camelita nuns the track at her school that is of a milelong. If she runs 4. 3 miles, how many laps did she run?

posledela

Answer:

3 laps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! I can see how this is tricky, but I was a bit confused by the 4 in "If she runs 4." It says in the problem that the track is a mile long... So if you run the track 3 times, 3 x 1 = 3.

<h3><u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

<u>The </u><u>right </u><u>angled </u><u>below </u><u>is </u><u>formed </u><u>by </u><u>3</u><u> </u><u>squares </u><u>A</u><u>, </u><u> </u><u>B </u><u>and </u><u>C</u>
<u>The </u><u>area </u><u>of </u><u>square </u><u>B</u><u> </u><u>has </u><u>an </u><u>area </u><u>of </u><u>1</u><u>4</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>inches </u><u>²</u>
<u>The </u><u>area </u><u>of </u><u>square </u><u>C </u><u>has </u><u>an </u><u>of </u><u>1</u><u>6</u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>inches </u><u>²</u>

<h3><u>To </u><u>Find </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

<u>We </u><u>have </u><u>to </u><u>find </u><u>the </u><u>area </u><u>of </u><u>square </u><u>A</u><u>? </u>

<h3><u>Let's </u><u>Begin </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u></h3>

The right angled triangle is formed by 3 squares

<u>We </u><u>have</u><u>, </u>

Area of square B is 144 inches²
Area of square C is 169 inches²

<u>We </u><u>know </u><u>that</u><u>, </u>

$\bold{ Area \: of \: square = Side × Side }$

Let the side of square B be x

<u>Subsitute </u><u>the </u><u>required </u><u>values</u><u>, </u>

$\sf{ 144 = x × x }$

$\sf{ 144 = x² }$

$\sf{ x = √144}$

$\bold{\red{ x = 12\: inches }}$

Thus, The dimension of square B is 12 inches

<h3><u>Now, </u></h3>

Area of square C = 169 inches

Let the side of square C be y

<u>Subsitute </u><u>the </u><u>required </u><u>values</u><u>, </u>

$\sf{ 169 = y × y }$

$\sf{ 169 = y² }$

$\sf{ y = √169}$

$\bold{\green{ y = 13\: inches }}$

Thus, The dimension of square C is 13 inches.

<h3><u>Now, </u></h3>

It is mentioned in the question that, the right angled triangle is formed by 3 squares

The dimensions of square be is x and y

Let the dimensions of square A be z

<h3><u>Therefore</u><u>, </u><u>By </u><u>using </u><u>Pythagoras </u><u>theorem</u><u>, </u></h3>

<u>The </u><u>sum </u><u>of </u><u>squares </u><u>of </u><u>base </u><u>and </u><u>perpendicular </u><u>height </u><u>equal </u><u>to </u><u>the </u><u>square </u><u>of </u><u>hypotenuse </u>

<u>That </u><u>is</u><u>, </u>

$\bold{\pink{ (Perpendicular)² + (Base)² = (Hypotenuse)² }}$

<u>Here</u><u>, </u>

Base = x = 12 inches
Perpendicular = z
Hypotenuse = y = 13 inches

<u>Subsitute </u><u>the </u><u>required </u><u>values</u><u>, </u>

$\sf{ (z)² + (x)² = (y)² }$

$\sf{ (z)² + (12)² = (169)² }$

$\sf{ (z)² + 144 = 169}$

$\sf{ (z)² = 169 - 144 }$

$\sf{ (z)² = 25}$

$\bold{\blue{ z = 5 }}$

Thus, The dimensions of square A is 5 inches

<h3><u>Therefore</u><u>,</u></h3>

Area of square

$\sf{ = Side × Side }$

$\sf{ = 5 × 5 }$

$\bold{\orange{ = 25\: inches }}$

Hence, The area of square A is 25 inches.

A cyclist travels 56 miles in 4 hours. What is the cyclist speed in feet per second

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

21.09 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to create the ratio of speed/time.

$\frac{56 miles}{4 hours}$

Next we must simplify

$\frac{14 miles}{1 hour}$

Next we must convert 14 miles in to feet. There are 5280 feet in a mile.

14 * 5280ft = <u>75,920 feet</u>

Now for hours into seconds.

1 hour = 60 min, 60 min = 3600 seconds

Our new ratio is \frac{75920ft}{3600sec}

simplify.

75920ft / 3600sec = 21.09ft/s
