Please help me! I'm having trouble solving this! In the △PQR, PQ = 39 in, PR = 17 in, and the height PN = 15 in. Find QR. Consid
Vlad [161]

Answer: 44

Step-by-step explanation:

we will find RN and NQ, then add together to give us RQ.

To find RN;

RP= 17 PN = 15 and RN =?

using pythagoras theorem,

adj^2 = hyp^2 - opp^2

RN^2 = RP^2 - PN^2

?^2 = 17^2 - 15^2

?^2 = 17^2 - 15^2

?^2 = 289 - 225

?^2 = 64

? = √64

? = 8

RN=8

To find NQ,

PN = 15 PQ=39 and NQ=?

using pythagoras theorem

NQ^2 = PQ^2 - PN^2

?^2 = 39^2 - 15^2

?^2 = 1521 - 225

?^2 = 1296

? = √1296

? = 36

NQ= 36

RQ = RN + NQ

RQ= 8 + 36

RQ=44

If k is a positive integer and n = k(k + 7), is n divisible by 6 ? (1) k is odd. (2) When k is divided by 3, the remainder is 2.
olganol [36]

Answer:

1.) Yes

2.) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

n = k(k + 7)

If k is a positive integer and n = k(k + 7), is n divisible by 6 ?

(1) k is odd. Yes.

Let assume that k = 3

Then, n = 3(3 + 7)

n = 3 × 10

n = 30.

30 is divisible by 6.

(2) When k is divided by 3, the remainder is 2. That is,

Let k = 5

Then,

5/3 = 1 remainder 2

Substitute k into the equation

n = k(k + 7)

n = 5(5 + 7)

n = 5 × 12

n = 60

And 60 is divisible by 6.

Therefore, the answer to both questions is Yes.
