How many feet long is the fence ?

Answer:

50 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the value of the missing side. The pythagoreon theorem only works with right triangles such as this one.

a²+b²=c²

Where a and b are length of legs (sides) of a triangle. And c is the length of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the side across from the right angle.

We know by looking at the image posted in the question, that one leg of the triangle is 14 feet. And another leg is 48 feet. (Length of picnic area) (length of campground)

14²+48²=c²

Simplify

196+2304=2500

Find square root of 2500

√(2500)=50

So 14²+48²=50²

The missing side is 50 feet long. The fence is 50 feet long.

choose the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the given point
alexdok [17]

We want to determine the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the point (5.6) .

The equation and the point is;

y=\frac{2}{3}x+9,(5,6)

We know that for two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes should be -1.

Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular should be;

m=-\frac{1}{(\frac{2}{3})}=-\frac{3}{2}

The second condition is that the line must pass through the point (5,6) , to do thid, we write the equation of the line in point slope form which is;

y-y_1=m(x-x_{1_{}})

Inserting all values, we have,

y-6=.-\frac{3}{2}(x-5)

That is the final answer.

Bonus: Find the measure indicated. *
velikii [3]

Answer:

AC = 16 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = CD = 10 in.

BD = 6 in.

AC = 2(AB) = ?

Apply pythagorean theorem to find AB

AB² = AD² - BD²

Substitute

AB² = 10² - 6²

AB² = 64

AB = √64

AB = 8

Therefore:

AC = 2(AB) = 2(8)

AC = 16 in.

Please tell me, how do i solve percentages? And yes, i know there is more than one way. Please tell me the methods to solve all
Bumek [7]
I'll give a practice problem to help explain it a bit better.

Here, let's try to solve 45% of of 60.

First, we convert the percentage into a decimal. To turn any percentage into a decimal you move the point two spaces to the left.

That means 45% as a decimal is .45.

Next, we multiply our number, 60, by the decimal .45.

60×.45=27.

That means 45% of 60 is 27.

To sum it all up, you have to get the percentage, move the decimal point two spaces to the left, and multiply it by the number you were trying to find the percentage of.

Have a wonderful day! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

For every $3.5 is 1 mile.

I do not know what other currency this could be, as I only live in the US. Therefor, i'm assuming it's US Dollars. But this does not effect the question, so moving on.
