You use the Pythagorean theorem which is a^2+b^2=c^2
So....
.8^2+.6^2=c^2
.64+.36=c^2
1=c^2
1=c becaaue the square root of one is one
Answer:666 hours
Step-by-step explanation: The reason is that if you turn the problem into an equation it would be h=Lx. h= hours. L=how long the log lasts and x=how many logs. So when you plug in the numbers you get 101010=L*151515. So we need to find L. What you do is you divide both sides by 151515 since it is the opposite of multiplication. 151515/151515 gets crossed out and 101010/151515 is .6666666666666 irrational. So the equation now looks like .666666 irrational=L. So .66666 irrational is your L. Know you plug .666666 irrational into your original equation. Which is now h=.6666 irrational*x. So to find how long the fire keeps on burning with 999 logs you just plug 999 into x and now your equation looks like this h=.6666 irrational*999. If you multiply .6666 irrational by 999 your final answer is 666.
Answer:
where is the picture???
what are the given lengths?
Answer:
Here's how I would do it.
Step-by-step explanation:
If two triangles are similar, corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
We know the measures of b and a, so we can calculate the ratio b/a.
d and b are in the same ratio, so
We know the measures of c, b, and a, so we can calculate the value of d.
