Given that the garden is rectangular and a line of roses form the diagonal 18.4 m long, we required to calculate the length of the perpendicular side.
Here we shall use the Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
where c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.
from the information given:
c=18.4 m
a=13 m
plugging this into our expression we get:
18.4²=13²+b²
next we solve for the value of b
b²=18.4²-13²
b²=338.56-169
b²=169.56
b=√169.56
b=13.0215
hence the length to the nearest tenth of a meter will be approximately 13.0 m

A ___ thermometer has a liquid that _____ and rises in a ____ tube when it's temperature goes up; the liquid ___ and it's level
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The answer is "bulb, expands, and glass ".

Step-by-step explanation:

The bulb thermometer is the common glass temperature sensor for which you might be grown up. This thermometer is filled with a liquid, typically mercury. Bulb thermometers work on the simple premise that it volume of the liquid varies in proportion to its volume.

It is a glass tube that is pre full with a fluid such as a hydrogen or liquor and is sealed at both sides. The fluid in the glass tube rises as the mercury inside the thermometer's bulb increases. When the temperature gauge is warm, the liquid inside flows up in the tube.

Someone help me do this please. I included a picture.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

52° and 128°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°

So to find the angles, the easiest thing to do is to use that fact.

There is one angle missing in the triangle shown, so to find it you need to subtract (5x-2)° from 180° since the angle is located on a line.

Simplifying that, you get 180°-(5x-2)°.

Now you can use the fact at the top of these instructions.

So you get the equation: 180°=2x°+76°+180°-(5x-2)°

Solving this equation, you get x=26

Plug x into the values that have x in the picture, and you get 52° and 128°
