(25 Points) The measure of b is ______?

Mathematics
2 answers:
Eva8 [605]3 years ago

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse (opposite the right angle)

20^2 +b^2 = 29^2

400 + b^2 =841

Subtract 400 from each side

400-400 +b^2 = 841-400

b^2 = 441

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(441)

b = 21

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a right triangle, so you can use the Pythagorean theorem, where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the lengths of the legs, and <em>c</em> is the length of the hypotenuse.

<em>a^2 + b^2 = c^2</em>

<em>20^2 + b^2 = 29^2</em>

<em>400 + b^2 = 841</em>

<em>b^2 = 841 - 400</em>

<em>b^2 = 441</em>

<em>b = 21</em>

A rectangle is 6 units wide and x-8 units long. It has the same area as a triangle with the height of 7 units and a base of x-3
Snowcat [4.5K]
AREA OF A RECTANGLE IS 42 UNITS

Rectangle:                             Triangle: 
A = L * W                             A = hb / 2
A = (x-8) * 6                         A = (7(x-3)) / 2
A = 6x - 48                            A = (7x - 21) / 2

Since the problem states that both rectangle and triangle have the same area.Then:

6x - 48 = (7x - 21) / 2

1) Eliminate the denominator 2 by multiplying both sides by 2.

2 * (6x - 48) = 2 * ((7x - 21) / 2)
12 x - 96 = 7x - 21

Find x. Transfer like numbers and change their signs.

12x - 7x = 96 - 21
5x = 75
5x / 5 = 75 / 5
x = 15

Substitute x by its value:

Rectangle:                            Triangle
A = (x-8) * 6          -                A = (7(x-3)) / 2                      Areas of both Rectangle
A = (15 -8 ) * 6                       A = (7(15-3)) / 2                      and Triangle is the same.
A = 7 * 6                                  A = (7 * 12) / 2
A = 42 units                            A = 84 / 2
                                               A = 42 units

Help I will give brainiest​
sdas [7]

Answer:

1.  V = 94 meters cubed

2. V = 8 feet cubed

3.  V = 57 inches cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is 1/3 the volume of a cylinder. So all you need to do is plug the numbers into the formula for the volume of a cylinder and then you have the answer.

The formula for a cylinder is V= (3.14 or pi) * radius squared * height

The formula for a cone is V= (3.14 or pi) * radius squared * height * 1/3

So here you go.....

1. V= 3.14 x 9 x 10 x 1/3                V = 94 meters cubed

2. V= 3.14 x 4 x 2 x 1/3                   V = 8 feet cubed

3. V = 3.14 x 9 x 6 x 1/3                  V = 57 inches cubed
