A right-angled triangle and its hypotenuse.

In geometry, a hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angled triangle, the side opposite of the right angle. The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. For example, if one of the other sides has a length of 3 (when squared, 9) and the other has a length of 4 (when squared, 16), then their squares add up to 25. The length of the hypotenuse is the square root of 25, that is, 5.

So basically the hypotenuse is the part of the triangle that connects the two sides that create the right angle

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Toshi must begin his walk at 11:00 AM in order that he can return by 8:00 PM.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Gotemba walking trail up Mount Fuji is about 9km long, and walkers need to return from the 18km walk by 8pm, if Toshi estimates that he can walk up the mountain at 1.5km / h on average, and down at twice that speed , these speeds taking into account meal breaks and rest times, to determine what is the latest time he can begin his walk so that he can return by 8pm the following calculation must be performed:

Climb: 1.5 km / h

Descent: 2 x 1.5 km / h = 3 km / h

Climb: 9 km / 1.5 km / h = 6 hours

Descent: 9km / 3 km / h = 3 hours

Total: 9 hours

8 PM = 20:00

20:00 - 09:00 = 11:00

Thus, Toshi must begin his walk at 11:00 AM in order that he can return by 8:00 PM.

Sav [38]

Answer:

0.0006087 (4 sf)

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial distribution:  X ~ B(n, p)

where n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success

Let the random variable X be the number of people with brown eyes

n = 14

p = 40% = 0.4

Therefore,  X ~ B(14, 0.4)

P(X ≥ 12) = 1 - P(X ≤ 11)

              = 1 - 0.9993913226...

              = 0.000608677...
