If you are trying to figure out the distance between the top of the tree and the end of the shadow, use a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the legs of the right triangle.
5^2 + 4^2 = c^2
25 + 16 = c^2
41 = c^2
c = √41 = 6.4 meters
True because a triangle must have 3 angles that add up to 180 degrees and, since a right angle is 90 degrees, it cannot have 2 right angles
Hi Desperate!
anyways the equation for constant variation is y=kx
3y=6x is it, but we don't want the 3.
so we divide on both sides to cancel out the 3.
y=2x
Answer:
Oh cool! The answer is 90 since a and c or parallel, b cuts through them perpendicularly, forming a right angle.
Step-by-step explanation:
4.29 + 97.2 + 0.687 = 102.177
In adding decimal numbers, make sure that the decimal points are aligned. Since each number has different counts of numbers after the decimal point, use 0 to pad the missing places.
4.290
97.200
<u> 0.687
</u> 102.177
The count of numbers after the decimal point is the same count of number of the decimal who has the greatest count of number after the decimal point.
4.29 only has 2 counts of places after the decimal point
97.2 only has 1 count of place after the decimal point
0.687 has 3 counts of places after the decimal point.
The sum of the decimals must also have 3 counts of places after the decimal point.
