Can someone please help and explain how to use the Pythagorean Theorem to prove a triangle is a right triangle.

marin [14]

Hi there!

For the Pythagorean Theorem, basically you just need to apply this formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

And then find the root of the hypotenuse.

For example,

15^2 + 8^2 = the hypotenuse^2

Which equals, 225 + 64 = 289

Square root of 289 = 17

Please mark me brainliest if this helps!

Have a wonderful day!

How many pieces 3 and three fifths in. long can be cut from 28 metal rods each 15 in. long? Disregard waste.

Murrr4er [49]

Answer: 112 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rewrite $3^{\frac{3}{5}}$ as a decimal. Divide the numerator and the denominator of the fractional part and add it to the integer part:

$3+0.6=3.6in$

2. You know that each metal rod is 15 inches long. Then, you must divide the lenght of each one by 3.6:

$pieces=\frac{15in}{3.6in}4.16$

3. The waste is 0.16, therefore, you obtain 4 pieces from a metal rod. The total pieces obtained from 28 metal rods are:

$total=4pieces*28=112pieces$
