Answer: There are 16 fish that he can keep in the aquarium.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Length of aquarium = 4 feet
Width of aquarium = 1 foot
So, it forms a shape of cuboid.
As we know the formula for "Volume of Cuboid":
According to question, Each fish needs atleast 0.5 cubic feet of water.
So, Number of fish that he can keep in the aquarium is given by
Hence, there are 16 fish that he can keep in the aquarium.

we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²----> equation 1
applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2
the answer is
the hypotenuse is (3√2)/2
