Answer:

This is not a right angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

12^2+17^2=433

Square root of 433 is not 20 and hence this is not a right angled triangle.

Answer:

$(B)r=\dfrac{85}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a circle centre J

Let the radius of the circle =r

LK is tangent to circle J at point K

From the diagram attached

LX=6
Radius, XJ=JK=r
LK=11

Theorem: The angle between a tangent and a radius is 90 degrees.

By the theorem above, Triangle JLK forms a right triangle with LJ as the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras Theorem:

$(6+r)^2=r^2+11^2\\(6+r)(6+r)=r^2+121\\36+6r+6r+r^2=r^2+121\\12r=121-36\\12r=85\\r=\dfrac{85}{12}$

The length of the radius, $r=\dfrac{85}{12}$

Help it’s for my babies brother hw

Answer:

From left to right, -3/2, -4/5, -3/10, 1/2, 7/8, 4/3

Step-by-step explanation

So what we're trying to do here is to order the numbers from greatest to least.

Let's start off with the negative numbers.

-3/10, -4/5, -3/2.

Now what we want to do is give them all a common denominator to figure out which one is the least of that group.

-3/10,-8/10,-15/10.

Now on to the positive numbers.

1/2, 4/3, 7/8

Turn the denominator into 24.

12/24, 32/24, 21/24

Then put them all in order.

Ella and kate play basketball last year ella scored 16 points per game kates total points for the season were 22 less than Ellis

KatRina [158]

Alright, lets get started.

Ella and kate played basketball last year.

In each game, Ella scored 16 points.

We have not given the number of games played.

So, lets suppose there are n games played last year.

So, total points of Ella will be = number of games * each game score

total points of Ella will be = n * 16 = 16 n

Kates total points for the season are 22 less than Elli's points

Means , Kates total points = 16 n - 22

This expression is similar with expression given 16 z - 22 (which is give in question)

It means z = n , means variable z means total games played in last year. : Answer

Hope it will help :)
