Answer: The length AC equals 10.25 cm (approximately)

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the diagram attached for further details.

The triangle has been constructed according to the dimensions provided with the top B going down to the "little square inside the triangle" which is C. This clearly identifies it as a right angled triangle. The point B meets with point C at the right angle and A is the sharp tip of the triangle, which makes point A the third angle. Hence we now have a right angled triangle with side AB measuring 11 cm, side BC measuring 4 cm and side AC is unknown.

We can now apply the Pythagoras' theorem which is stated as follows;

AC² = BC² + AB²

Where AC is the hypotenuse (longest side) and BC and AB are the other two sides. We can now substitute for the appropriate sides in this question as all the sides have been labelled differently. Hence,

BA² = BC² + CA²

11² = 4² + CA²

121 = 16 + CA²

Subtract 16 from both sides of the equation

105 = CA²

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

√105 = √CA²

10.2469 = CA

CA ≈ 10.25 cm

The third side AC (or CA) measures approximately 10.25 cm

Which way shows one way you can decompose 15 to find 42 x 15?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

42 * 10 + 42 * 5

which agrees with the third option (C) shown on the list of possible answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that using distributive property we can write:

42 * 15 = 42 (10 + 5) = 42 * 10 + 42 * 5

which agrees with the third option (C) shown on the list of possible answers.

What is 82,119 rounded to the nearest ten thousand?
Stels [109]
80,000.
To round up to the nearest ten thousand, we would see if the next lower place value has a amount either 5 or higher or 4 or lower.
If it’s five or higher, we round up.
If it’s four or lower, we round down.
We can see that the number in the ten thousands place is 8. The number in the place value after 8 is 2.
2<5 so we round down.
The answer is 80,000.
Hope this helps!
