Answer:

Length of the leg b is:

17.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

The values a=8 which is a leg of a right triangle and value c=19 which is the hypotenuse.

We have to find the length of the other leg b to the nearest tenth.

  By phythagoras theorem

    a²+b²=c²

⇒    8²+b²=19²

⇒      b²=361-64

⇒     b²=297

⇒     b=17.23

Hence, length of the leg b is:

       17.2 units

C^2=a^2+b^2  we are given the hypotenuse of 19 units and one leg of 8 units so:

19^2=8^2+b^2

361=64+b^2

b^2=297

b=√297

b≈17.2 to the nearest tenth

Ok, so you automatically know that you are subtracting 6 from 10 to get 4. So, in order to figure out how it is 1/3 of that number, it is going to be multiplied by 3, getting 18. So, the number would be 18.

Find the value of x in the proportion. Check your answer.<br> 35/x=7/13<br> x=?
maks197457 [2]
This is super simple. Begin with cross multiplying


35/x=7/13 becomes (35)*(13)=(7) *(x)

Then multiply my love muffin, you get...

455=7x

divide both sides by 7

65=x
-or-
x=65

hope that helped :)
