What is the length of the side of a right triangle that has a side length of 12 ft and hypotenuse that measures 15 ft

Mathematics

Answer:

9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem states

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

Substituting in what we know (one leg is 12 and the hypotenuse is 15)

12^2 +b^2 = 15^2

144+ b^2 = 225

Subtract 144 from each side

144-144 +b^2 = 225-144

b^2 =81

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(81)

b = 9

A 40 amp fuse carries a temporary 9 % current overload. How many
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

43.6 amp

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A 40 amp fuse carries a temporary 9 % current overload.

9% current overload means that whatever will be the normal current carrying capacity of fuse, during overload it carries 9% more than that.

Current carrying capacity of fuse is 40 amp.

during overload it carries 9% more

over load current = 9% of 40 amp  = 9/100 *40 = 3.6 amp

total current flowing through fuse during overload = 40 amp + 3.6 amp

                                           = 43.6 amp (answer)
