Si un triángulo tiene una hipotenusa de 15 cm y un cateto que mide 12 cm, ¿cual es la longitud del otro cateto?

Mathematics

BartSMP [9]3 years ago

Answer:

   

9cm

Explicación:

El teorema de pitagoras nos dice que la hipotenusa al cuadrado es igual a la suma de los catetos al cuadrado:

c^{2} =a^{2} + b^{2}

Donde c es la hipotenusa y a  y b son los catetos.

Por lo cual, podemos reemplazar c por 15cm y a por 12cm :

15^{2} =12^{2} +b^{2}

Finalmente , debemos resolver la ecuación para b, así que b es igual a :

225=144+b^{2} \\225-144=144+b^{2} -144\\81=b^{2} \\\sqrt{81} =b\\9=b

Por lo tanto, la longitud del otro cateto es 9 cm

Exactly 1 1/3 yard of ribbon is needed to make a bow. Which of the following lengths of ribbon could be used to make a bow with
svp [43]

Answer:

1 and 2/5 yards wastes only 1/15 a yard

Step-by-step explanation:

1 and 1/6 yards  would make a waste of 1 and 1/6 yards since you can't make a ribbon out of it. (incorrect)

1 and 2/10 yards  would make a waste of 1 and 1/5 yards since you can't make a ribbon out of it. (incorrect)

1 and 2/5 yards

1\frac{2}{5} -1\frac{1}{3} =\\\\1\frac{6}{15} -1\frac{5}{15} =\\\\\frac{1}{15}

Wastes 1/15 a yard.

1 and 1/2 yards  

1\frac{1}{2} -1\frac{1}{3} =\\\\1\frac{3}{6} -1\frac{2}{6} =\\\\\frac{1}{6}

It wastes 1/6 a yard.

2 yards

2-1\frac{1}{3} =\frac{2}{3}

It wastes 4/6 a yard.

Show two ways to multiply 2/15 x 3/20. Then tell wich way is easier and justify your choice
Radda [10]

The easier way to multiply 2/15 by 3/20 will simply be by multiplying the numerators and denominators.

In order to multiply 2/15 x 3/20, we can simply multiply the numerator and the denominator. This will be

= 2/15 × 3/20

= 6/300

= 1/50

Also, in order to multiply the fractions, we can change them to decimal first. This will be:

= 2/15 × 3/20

= 0.133 × 0.15

= 0.01995

In conclusion, multiplying the numerators and denominators is easier and faster.
