[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

<em>a</em> = <em>a</em>

<em>b</em> = 8

<em>c</em> = 10

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]:                                            a² + 8² = 10²
  2. Evaluate exponents:                                                                                         a² + 64 = 100
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 64 on both sides:                      a² = 36
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                    a = 6

What is the area of the figure abcd
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

66 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the figure can be found by adding the area of the rectangle and the triangle together.

The area of a rectangle is found A = l*w. Here l = 10 and w = 6. So the area of the rectangle is 10*6 = 60.

The area of a triangle is found A = 1/2 b*h. Here b = 2 from 12-10 = 2 and h = 6. So the area of the triangle is 1/2 * 2* 6 = 6.

The area together is 60 + 6 = 66 square inches.

Thomas wants to invite Madeline to a party. He has an 80% chance of bumping into her at school. Otherwise, he'll call her on the
mash [69]

Answer:

The probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to the party over the phone is 0.143.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the tree diagram below.

The events are denoted as follows:

<em>A</em> = Thomas bumps into Madeline at school

<em>B</em> = Thomas call Madeline on the phone

<em>X</em> = Thomas asks Madeline to the party

The information provided is:

P (A) = 0.80

P (B) = 1 - P (A) = 1 - 0.80 = 0.20

P (X|A) = 0.90

⇒ P (X'|A) = 1 - P (X|A) = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

P (X|B) = 0.60

⇒ P (X'|B) = 1 - P (X|B) = 1 - 0.60 = 0.40

The conditional probability of event <em>U</em> given that another events <em>V</em> has already occurred is:

P(U|V)=\frac{P(V|U)P(U)}{P(V)}

The law of total probability states that:

P(V)=P(V|U)P(U)+P(V|U')P(U')

In this case we need to determine the probability that Thomas invites Madeline to the party over the phone, i.e. P (B|X).

Use the law of total probability to determine the value of P (X) as follows:

P(X) = P(X|A)P(A)+P(X|B)P(B)

         =(0.90\times 0.80)+(0.60\times 0.20)\\=0.72+0.12\\=0.84

Compute the value of P (B|X) as follows:

P(B|X)=\frac{P(X|B)P(B)}{P(X)}

             =\farc{0.60\times 0.20}{0.84}\\\\=0.14286\\\\\approx 0.143

Thus, the probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to the party over the phone is 0.143.
