numerator = top part of the fraction
denominator = bottom part of the fraction
* means multiply
a.
you can only add the numerator when the denominator is the same
cant add the denominator
denominator has to be the same
1/5 = 4/20
4/20 + 7/20 = 11/20
b.
1 7/8 = 15/8
3/4 ÷ 15/8 =
3/4 * 8/15 =
24/60 = divide both top and bottom by 12 =
2/5
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Isosceles right triangles have two equal sides (a and b) that are not the hypotenuse (c). And when two sides are equal, so are their opposite angles. There are only 180° degrees in any triangles, thus the right angle = 90°, so 90 left for the two equal, means that 2x=90,
x = 45°.
There are several ways to go about solving a triangle like this. The best and easiest is simply to memorize that the hypotenuse is exactly root2 times the other sides. Or, each isosceles side is the hypotenuse (c) ÷ root2

Another way to do it is the longer proof of Pythagorean Theorem:
