Refer to the figure shown below.
We shall review each of the three given measurements and decide what type of triangle we have.
Measurement a.
a=3, b=4, c=5.
For a right triangle, c² = a² + b² (Pythagorean theorem)
a² + b² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25
c² = 5² = 25
Answer:
This is a right triangle, because c² = a² + b².
Measurement b.
a=5, b=6, c=7.
For an acute triangle, c² < a² + b².
a² + b² = 5² + 6² = 25 + 36 = 61
c² = 7² = 49
Answer:
This is an acute triangle, because c² < a² + b².
Measurement c.
a=8, b=9, c=12.
For an obtuse triangle, c² > a² + b².
a² + b² = 8² + 9² = 64 + 81 = 145
c² = 12² = 144
Answer:
This is an acute triangle because c² < a² + b².
Answer:
750 times 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
R = 9x + 8y
4 = 9x + 8*8
4 = 9x + 64
Subtract 64 from both sides
4 - 64 = 9x + 64 - 64
-60 = 9x
Divide both sides by 9
-60/9 = 9x/9
-20/3 = x
x = -6 2/3
Answer:
5/18
Step-by-step explanation:
speed = distance / time
s = (2/9 miles) / (4/5 hours)
To divide by a fraction, multiply by the reciprocal:
s = (2/9) × (5/4)
s = 10/36
s = 5/18
So the snake's speed is 5/18 miles per hour.
