For the rhombus ABCD, diagonal BD = 18 and diagonal AC = 24. What is the side length of the rhombus? A) 15 2 B) 21 2 C) 15 D) 21

1 answer:

8 0

The diagonals are perpendicular to each other.
The right triangle has half of each diagonal as sides, so the hypotenuse or side length is Sqrt(9^2 + 12^2) = 15.
Hint: a 3,4,5 sided triangle is the smallest integer right triangle. Doubling or tripling, etc. is still a right triangle. So when I saw the 9,12, I knew that 15 was the hypotenuse.

In a box there are 3 red pens, 2 green pens, and 1 blue pen. What is the probability of picking a red pen, not replacing it, and

Olin [163]

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the probability of choosing the red pen:

There are 6 total pens and 3 are red, so the probability will be 3/6

This can be simplified to 1/2

Then, find the probability of choosing a blue pen after not replacing the red one:

There are 5 total pens now, since we did not replace the red one.

There is only 1 blue pen, so the probability is 1/5

Then, multiply these 2 probabilities together:

1/2(1/5)

= 1/10

So, the probability is 1/10
