Answer: hypotenuse = c^{2} + b^{2}

Step-by-step explanation: Pythagorean theorem states that square of hypotenuse (h) equals the sum of squares of each side (s_{1},s_{2}) of the right triangle, .i.e.:

h^{2} = s_{1}^{2} + s_{2}^{2}

In this question:

s_{1} = c^{2}-b^{2}

s_{2} = 2bc

Substituing and taking square root to find hypotenuse:

h=\sqrt{(c^{2}-b^{2})^{2}+(2bc)^{2}}

Calculating:

h=\sqrt{c^{4}+b^{4}-2b^{2}c^{2}+(4b^{2}c^{2})}

h=\sqrt{c^{4}+b^{4}+2b^{2}c^{2}}

c^{4}+b^{4}+2b^{2}c^{2} = (c^{2}+b^{2})^{2}, then:

h=\sqrt{(c^{2}+b^{2})^{2}}

h=(c^{2}+b^{2})

Hypotenuse for the right-angled triangle is h=(c^{2}+b^{2}) units

WATER TOWER One of the largest sphere water towers in the country is located in Edmond, Oklahoma. It is 218 feet tall and holds
Fudgin [204]

Answer: The radius of the new water tower is approximately 21 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

  So we know the volume  of the Water Tower is 66840 ft^3   and the new one's volume will hold 3/5 as much.  so you will multiply  66840 by 3/5 to find the volume of the new one.

66840 * 3/5 = 40104   so the new water tower will hold 40104 cubic feet of water.

Now to find the radius we will use the formula  v= 4/3\pir^3

40104 =  4/3 * \pi* r^3

 40104=  4.1887* r^3

r= 21

I need answer please​
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

y = -3/2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope so slope is -3/2

Using (4,0)

y = mx + b

0 = -3/2(4) + b

0 = -6 + b

b = 6

so y = -3/2x + 6

emily read 24 fiction books and 2 nonfiction books. what is the ratio of the number of fiction books she read to the total numbe
Elis [28]

Answer:

24:26 or 12:13

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios can be better understood if you read 24:26 as: Emily read 24 fiction books for every 26 books.

The question tells us Emily read 24 fiction books and 2 nonfiction books. We know she read 24 fiction books so that is the first part of our ratio. Now, they want to know how many total books did she read. Well, she read 24 fiction and 2 nonfiction. 24+2 = 26. 26 books total! So now we have the second part of our ratio and end up with the ratio of 24:26. But now, we have to simplify it. Simplifying ratios is like simplyfing fractions. You have to find their greatest common factor. The greatest common factor of 24 and 26 is 2. Now you divide both number by their greatest common factor (2). Finally, we end up with the ratio of 12:13.
