This is a special right triangle called a 30-60-90 triangle. It has a special property the relates the ratio of side lengths. That ratio is 1:

:2
What does this mean? If you know the shortest side of a 30-60-90 triangle, you can find the longer leg by multiplying it by

, and you can find the hypotenuse by multiplying the short leg by 2.
In the picture, note that the short leg of the triangle has a length of 9. Therefore, the long leg(or n) is simply 9
-5
I did that help? I hope I helped you
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When working with 45-45-90 triangles the hypotenuse is the same as the other legs multiplied by root 2. Therefore if you need to find the legs and already have the hypotenuse, divide the hypotenuse by root 2.
10/ sqrt(2) = 7.1 is the rounded answer.
to double check your work just multiply 7.1 by the square root of 2 and you'll get <em>close</em> to 10. (because the answer is rounded and not exact.)
240÷15=16 seats at each table
Since there were 15 tables and 240 in total you have to divide to find the number of seats at a table
Answer:
8 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount in the glass after m minutes can be described by ...
a = 4 + 3/2m
We want to find m when a=16, so ...
16 = 4 + 3/2m
12 = 3/2m . . . . . subtract 4
8 = m . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/3
It will take 8 minutes to fill the glass.
