Answer:

The measurements do not form right angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given lengths are 5 mm, 12 mm and 17mm

The longer leg forms the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.

Using Pythagorean theorem;

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\(5)^2+(12)^2=(17)^2\\25+144=289\\169\neq 289$

Therefore,

The measurements do not form right angled triangle.

stepan [7]

Answer:

x=9

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

1. $117 ft^{2}$

2. $54 ft^{2}$

3. $1,428 ft^{2}$

4. $644 ft^{2}$

5. $4,700 ft^{2}$

6. $57,600 ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First use $A = w*l$

$w = width$

$l = length$

It doesn't have to be $A = w*l$ , it could be $A = l*w$ . It will be the same answer.

1. $3 ft * 9 ft = 117 ft^{2}$

2. $3 ft * 18 ft = 54 ft^{2}$

3. $42 ft * 34 ft = 1,428 ft^{2}$

4. $23 ft * 28 ft = 644 ft^{2}$

5. $94 ft * 50 ft = 4,700 ft^{2}$

6. $360 ft*160 ft = 57,600 ft^{2}$
