Answer:

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:

Step-by-step explanation:

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

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

20^2 + b^2 = 29^2

400 + b^2 = 841

b^2 = 841 - 400

b^2 = 441

b = 21

Clara created the poster shown below:

Answer:

$length=4\ cm\\width=6\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rectangular poster shown in the picture, you know that its dimensions (its width and its lenght) are:

$w_1=24\ cm\\l_1=16\ cm$

In order to calculate the dimensions of the rectangular at $\frac{1}{4}$ times its current size, you need to multiply the original lenght by $\frac{1}{4}$ and multiply the original width by $\frac{1}{4}$ .

Knowing this, you get:

$w_2=w_1\frac{1}{4}\\\\w_2=(24\ cm)(\frac{1}{4})\\\\w_2=6\ cm\\\\\\l_2=l_1\frac{1}{4}\\\\l_2=(16\ cm)(\frac{1}{4})\\\\l_2=4\ cm$

Answer:

x = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1.

180° - 80° (because there are 180 degrees in a triangle) = 100°

Step 2.

100° ÷ 2 = 50° (because the two angles on the bottom are identical, as this is an isosceles triangle - which we know because the two sides on the left and right are both the same length, 7 units)

Step 3.

Answer: x = 50°

25 is 45% of what number

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 55.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be k

(45 x k) / 100 = 25

45k/100 = 25

multiply both sides by 100

45k = 25 x 100

45k = 2500

divide both sides by 45

k = 2500/45

k = 55.56
