The answer should be:
20.875
Hope this helps.
Hi there!
In order to solve, we'll need to use a proportion: 20/a = 21/20. Then, we'll cross-multiply and solve to find a: 21a = 400 | a = 19.05. Next, to find b, we can just use pythagorean theorem: 20^2 + (400/21)^2 = b^2 | b = 27.62.
We are using geometric mean to solve for a, then using pythagorean theorem to solve for b. If you need more help with geometric mean, or would like a complete explanation, please let me know! I'd be happy to provide you with that information.
Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
3+5=8
8/20 =.4
.4 goes to 40% bc you move the decimal over twice
The answer would be x = -6
Answer:
b = 8√3 mm, a = 16 mm, x = 5 ft, y = 5√2 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
With 30° 60° 90° triangles, one side will be a number, the other leg will be that number multiplied by √3, and the hypotenuse will be 2 times that original number.
So in this case:
The original leg's length is 8 mm. Side b will be that 8 times √3.
So, b = 8√3 mm.
Side a will be 8 times 2.
So, a = 16 mm.
With 45° 45° 90° triangles, the two legs will be the same length, and the hypotenuse will be that number times √2.
So in this case:
The original leg's length is 5 ft. Side x will be that same length.
So, x = 5 ft.
Side y will be 5 times √2.
So, y = 5√2 ft.
