Does 5 mm , 12 mm , and 17 mm form a right triangle

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vlad [161]3 years ago
5 0

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.

I need help with these. Click this to see the problems (if u don't know how to)
Daniel [21]
The ground is supplementary. That means it equals 180 degrees. (A circle is 360. The ground is half the circle)
So u set up the equation as
180=22x+14x
180=36x
/36 /36
5=x

But you need to find the 14x

Patrick raced round a 440 metre circular track and stopped suddenly after 900 metres . How far was she from the starting point a
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

20 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The track is circular so it means that after Patrick raced the entire track he is back at the starting point. In other words, every 440 meters he is back to the beginning.

So we would have that, if he races round the track twice, he would run 440(2) = 880 meters and he would be back at the starting point.

The problem asks us how far is he from the starting point at the 900 meter mark. If at 880 meters he is at the starting point, then at 900 meters he would be 900-880=20 meters from the starting point.

Find two numbers whose difference is 154 and whose product is a minimum.
Serggg [28]
Y - x = 154
let z = xy = x(154 + x) = x^2 + 154x

we need to find the minimum value of z

z' =   2x + 154  which = zero for minm or maxm value

x = -77   and y = 154 -77 = 77

so the 2 numbers are -77 and 77

A triangle has angles in the ratio 3:10:2 what is the size of the largest angle x?
Annette [7]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

let the angles be 3k,10k,2k

then 3k+10k+2k=180

15k=180

k=180/15=12

x=10k=10×12=120°
