Answer:

Solution given:

Since the given triangle is isosceles and right angled triangle

perpendicular [p]=base[b]=x

hypotenuse [h]=6

we have

by using Pythagoras law

p²+b²=h²

x²+x²=6²

2x²=36

x²=36/2

x²=18

x= $\sqrt{18}$

x= $\bold{3\sqrt{2}}$

39 is what percent of 96

ra1l [238]

Answer:

40.625%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple question.

We have to understand converting word equations to algebraic ones.

"is" means "="

"of" means "*"

So, we can write:

39 = what percent * 96

Now, we let "what percent" be "p" and solve the equation for p:

39 = P * 96

So,

$39 = P * 96\\39=96P\\P=\frac{39}{96}\\P=0.40625$

Converting this decimal to percentage means multiplying by 100, so we have:

0.40625 * 100

= 40.625%
