Answer:

Maria (I THINK)

Step-by-step explanation:

Tanya is running 70 yards in all, while maria would be running more based on the pythagorean theorem

The pythagorean theorem is that on a right triangle, the square root of the two legs equal the hypotenuse

40^2+ 70^2 =c^2

6500=c^2

square root both sides

and roughly c= 80.6 yards so maria runs more

(Im not sure it is a right angle though?)

Answer:

              \bold{x_1=-\dfrac{3+\sqrt{41}}{2}\approx-4.7\ ,\quad x_2=-\dfrac{3-\sqrt{41}}{2}\approx1.7}

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x^2-3x+4=0\\\\a=-2\,,\ b=-3\,,\ c=4\\\\\\x=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt{b^2\pm4ac}}{2a}=\dfrac{-(-3)\pm\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(-2)(4)}}{2(-1)}=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt{9+32}}{-2}\\\\\\x_1=-\dfrac{3+\sqrt{41}}{2}\approx-4.7\ ,\qquad x_2=-\dfrac{3-\sqrt{41}}{2}\approx1.7

What is the value of x, the side length of the smallest square (please show work) Thanks!
Ratling [72]

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok lets on the biggest square we have 17 cm

17cm is the hypotenuse for the right triangle

The second largest's area is 225 cm^2

Sq root of 225 cm^2, is 15

To find x, lets plug the info we have to the pythagorean theorom

a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\a^2 + 15^2 = 17^2\\a^2 + 225 = 289\\\\289 - 225 = a^2\\64=a^2\\a = 8 cm

The side length of the smallest Square is 8 cm

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

If you like my answer and explanation, mark me as brainliest!

A garden in the shape of a right triangle is bordered on one side by a brick wall, on another side by a wooden fence, and on the
MAVERICK [17]
Let
x-----> the measure of the angle formed by the wooden fence and grass

we know that
in a right triangle
tan x=opposite side angle x/adjacent side angle x
opposite side angle x=13 ft
adjacent side angle x=21 ft
so
tan x=13/21x=arc tan (13/21)-----> x=31.76°------> x=32°

the answer is
32 degrees
