Larger triangle’s base length
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 3^2 = 8^2
a^2 = 8^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(55)
a = sqrt(55)
__________________
Smaller triangle’s base length:
The same formula applies.
a^2 + 3^2 = 5^2
a^2 = 5^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(16)
a = 4
____________
The finale!
Add the two side lengths of a, which is sqrt(55) + 4 (exact answer)
or... 11.416 (unrounded to thousandths place)
Good luck to you!

Step-by-step explanation:
volume for a rectagular prism is length x width x height
6 x 3.9 x 13.2 = 308.88
Answer:
y = root 9
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 is equivalent to the root of something.
The root of y equals 3.
Therefore, y would be equal to root 9, as root 9 is equivalent to 3.
Hope this helps :)
Answer: True.
The ancient Greeks could bisect an angle using only a compass and straightedge.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ancient Greek mathematician <em>Euclid</em> who is known as inventor of geometry.
The Greeks could not do arithmetic. They had only whole numbers. They do not have zero and negative numbers.
Thus, Euclid and the another Greeks had the problem of finding the position of an angle bisector.
This lead to the constructions using compass and straightedge. Therefore, the straightedge has no markings. It is definitely not a graduated-rule.
As a substitute for using arithmetic, Euclid and the Greeks learnt to solve the problems graphically by drawing shapes .
