Option A: >
Solution:
Given a triangle GHJ.
The line GH is perpendicular to line HJ.
This means the triangle is a right angled triangle.
In ΔGHJ, GH is the base of the triangle and
HJ is a height of the triangle.
Then the third side must be the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
We know that by the Pythagoras theorem,
This clearly shows that the hypotenuse is greater than the height.
⇒ GJ > HJ
Option A: > is the correct answer.
If line GH is perpendicular to line HJ, then GJ is > HJ.
Kaleerain5,
In order to get your answer you must remember that if the exponent is negative move to the left and if the exponent is positive you have to move to the right.
- The exponent is negative so move to the left:
Therefore your answer is ".000857."
Hope this helps!
