Answer: DE= 15 m

Explanation:

Since, in \triangle CDF,

After applying, Pythagoras theorem, DF^2=CD^2-CF^2=(17)^2-(8)^2=289-64=225

Thus, DF^2=225 \Rightarrow DF=\sqrt{225} \Rightarrow DF=15 m

Again, in \triangle BDF and \triangle BDE,

\angle BED= \angle BFD ( Right angles)

BD=BD ( common edges)

\angle DBE= \angle DBF (BD makes the angle bisector of angle B.)

Thus, according to AAS condition- \triangle BDF\cong \triangle BDE

So, DE=DF (CPCT)

Therefore, DE=DF=15m⇒DE=15 m

To solve this you have to use the Pythagorean Theorem. 
Which is a²+b²=c²
CF,CD,and DF makes a triangle 
Substitute it in
a²+8²=17² Add
a²+64=289 Subtract 64 to get a alone
a²=225 Square root it 
a=15

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

D.) 0.9990

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Number of questions = 10

True or False questions ; probability of success, p = 1/2 = 0.5

Using binomial distribution :

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

Probability of getting atleast one correct answer :

P(x ≥ 1) = p(1) + p(2) +... P(x = 10)

Using a binomial probability calculator :

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.9990

Can someone give the answer for the number pattern show your work, I am struggling. Please!
Anna [14]
To solve this you have to take the numbers and subtract them and that will give you the pattern.
Ex. For #9 do 26-19 then to check and see if that helps the pattern do 36-26
Hope this helps:)
