Answer:

you can use it in architecture and construction

Step-by-step explanation:

say you are building a sloped roof. If you know the height of the roof and the length for it to cover, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the diagonal length of the roof's slope. You can use this information to cut properly sized beams to support the roof, or calculate the area of the roof that you would need to shingle. I hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

The external angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

∠ PQS is an external angle of the triangle, thus

x + 72 = 90 + 34 = 124 ( subtract 72 from both sides )

x = 52

5: Answer the questions completely: Jordan has a new puppy. She wants to put a fence around part of her yard to cover an area of
irga5000 [103]

Given that Jordan has a new puppy and she wants to put a fence around part of her yard to cover an area of 200 square feet.

Now we have to find what dimensions (length x width) should she make the rectangular area. None of the length or width are given so there can be lots of answers.

Since area is rectangular and we know that rectangle has different value of length and width so we just need to find two factors of given area 200 square feet.

For example 20 times 10 is 200.


So the dimension of the rectangular area will be:

Length = 20 feet and width = 10 feet


Now perimeter of the rectangle is given by formula:

Perimeter = 2(length+width) = 2(20+10)=2(30)=60


Hence perimeter is 60 feet.

And your answer is 18, so 18 of the children wore a different type of costume.

The amount Nathan earns per week

15 -8

The total amount per week they earn together

(12-4) + (15-8)

Multiply by x weeks

{(12-4) + (15-8)}x

Set this equal to 65 to be the amount they need to equal 65 dollars

{(12-4) + (15-8)}x  = 65
