A right triangle has two shorter sides that differ in length by 7cm. The length of the
Naily [24]

Answer:

a = 5

b = 12

c = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

b-a=7(b=a+7)

c=a+8

Then, substitute

a^2+((a+7)*(a+7))=c^2

a^2+a^2+7a+7a+49=c^2

2a^2+14a+49=c^2

Because c = a+8

2a^2+14a+49=(a+8)(a+8)

2a^2+14a+49=a^2+16a+64

a^2-2a=15

a^2-2a-15=0

(a-5)(a+3)=0

a = 5,-3

a = 5(a side cannot be negative)

Plug in a=5 to the other equations to get

a = 5, b = 12, c = 13

Hope it helps <3

Three security cameras were mounted at the corners of a triangular parking lot. Camera 1 was 106 ft from camera 2, which was 133
Harrizon [31]
Correct Answer: 
Option C. Camera 2

The greatest angle is always opposite to the side measure greater in length. So first we find the greatest side.

The distance between cameras is:

Camera 1 and Camera 2 : 106 feet
Camera 2 and Camera 3 : 133 feet
Camera 1 and Camera 3 : 151 feet

So the largest side of the triangle is the side between camera 1 and camera 3. So the camera opposite to this side will have to cover to greatest angle. The camera opposite to this side is Camera 2. This scenario is also shown in figure below.

Therefore, Camera 2 had to cover the greatest angle.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

  4^(11/20)

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rule of exponents is ...

  (a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)

Using that here, we have ...

  4^(3/4)/4^(1/5) = 4^(3/4 -1/5)

  = 4^(15/20 -4/20) = 4^(11/20)

Alejandra plans to sew fringe on a scarf. The scarf is shaped like a rectangle. The length of the scarf is 44 inches. The width
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Total fringe needed = 132 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Given - Alejandra plans to sew fringe on a scarf. The scarf is shaped like a rectangle. The length of the scarf is 44 inches. The width is one half the length.

To find - How much fringe does Alejandra need?

Proof -

Total fringe needed = Perimeter of the rectangle.

Now,

We know that,

Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2(Length + Width)

Now,

Given that,

Length = 44 inches

Width = one half the length

          = \frac{1}{2} × 44 = 22 inches

⇒Width = 22 inches

∴ we get

Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2(44 + 22)

                                             = 2(66) = 132 inches

⇒Perimeter of Rectangle = 132 inches

∴ we get

Total fringe needed = Perimeter of the rectangle = 132 inches

⇒Total fringe needed = 132 inches
