Answer:
17 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A right angle has 3 sides: the adjacent, the opposite and the hypotenuse.
The hypotenuse is the largest side of the right angle
The shorter sides are 15 feet and 8 feet which should represent opposite and adjacent sides respectively
Opposite = 15 feet
Adjacent = 8 feet
Hypotenuse = x feet
Using Pythagoras theorem to solve
Hypotenuse ² = opposite ² + adjacent ²
x² = 15² + 8²
x² = 225 + 64
x² = 289
Find the square root of both sides
√x² = √289
x = 17 feet
The 3rd side is 17 feet
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
|-12|= 12
this means that it represents a positive number. Each answer represents a positive number other than the town that lies -12 feet below sea level. (sorry if I'm wrong)
The Answer is b The numerical values of the circumference and area are equal.
The answer is A. This is because heat, pressure, or differences in density are some methods used to separate homogeneous mixtures.
Listing out a few elements of the set of perfect squares, we get the following values
{1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, ...}
we can stop there because 82 is between 81 and 100
So if x^2 = 82, then x^2 is between 81 and 100 meaning
81 < x^2 < 100
apply the square root to all sides of the compound inequality and we get
9 < x < 10
So the square root of 81 is between 9 and 10
Answer: the value falls between 9 and 10
